OMAHA, Nov 1909, Recelpts of wheat at prij points co year, The cash prices are gradually declining a lower level at all markets. Should the heavy movement continue, which is likely, and the prospects for Present winter wheat crop continua fa Able, very much lower vaiues are predicted for the more distant futures. Hearish reports are numerous concerning the returns on this years corn crop and {he market tone is decidedly weak at this ime. Wheat was easy and lower on weak cables and a slump in cash prices. Re- ceipts are heavy and stocks are mccumu- ltaing rapldly with the present movement There is a poor demand for all grades and offerings tend to favor further declines. Corn was soft and dullness characterized all the trades. Recelpts are very moderate, but the demand is very slack; buyers are taking only small lots for local consump- tion, and decided weakness followed all ofterings. Primary wheat receipts were 1,651,000 bu. «nd shipments were 571,000 bu. against holi- day last y Primary corn receipts were 464,000 bu. and shipments were 247,000 bu., against holiday last year.

Corn, oats and provisions also closed at mod- erate declines Little actiyity was manifested in wheat December s0ld between $1.03% @1.04 and $1045% @1.04%. The market closed weak at almost the bottom, with December at | $LO4@1.04%, Selling at the start was inspired by ‘a 3%d decline at Liverpool. As the seswlon advanced the selling pros- sure was augmented by the domestic sit- | uation, including heavy receints at all| primary points, declines in cash prices and | optimistic reports on the new crop in the United States.

There Was | change of consequence as far as prices | were concerned, most strings Jizing not far from steady money. It might be well to mention in this connectlon, that, while the demand for feeding stock has been brisk on all days lately, the poorer grades are somewhat neglected and occasional dull spots in the market do not indicate that the outlet Is narrowing, but that rural telent is not kindly disposed toward common and trashy kinds. This feature is perhaps more evident at present since rangemen are dumping into the market hopper the sea- son's “clean-up” of odds and ends.

Falls Thirty Feet; Never a Scratch A swirling blackness and void swallowed R. J. Fahey. Mighty potency, liquor, was the only impression that fleeted through his conseiousness when the all-obliterating crash came. There was a swish in inter- stellar space, a shower of the constella- tions, and then swift oblivion. The night's long sllence wus broken to the wondering Fahey when he heard the crisp voice of the police judge: ‘One dollar and costs.” Fahey, imbued with an exceedingly effi- clent inebriation, had fallen from the via- Auet at Unlon station, and tumbled softly on the pavement thirty feet below—with- out a scratch.

Wakeley, one of the ploneer citi- zens of Omaha and Nebraska, pays this |tribute to the memory and deeds of Mrs. Joseph Barker, who died Sunday @nd was buried Monda: The death of Mrs. Joseph Barker, after | a lingering illness, has removed trom us a member of one of the pioneer tamilles who came to Omaha In its early uncertain years to abide lts fortunes and its future to the end. She was a daughter of Colonel John Pat- rick of Unlontown, Pa., whose three sons and two daughters came from there In 186, locating in the young city and estab- | lishing & commodious and substantial fam- ily home at Seventeenth and Davenport streets. The father afterward joined tAem |and was a resident of Omaha until his | death. The sons, J. N. H., M. T. and A. | 8. Patrick—the only survivors of the family— identified themselves permanently and suce cessfully with the business life and iInter- |ests of Nebraska and the new west. | "Eliza ., the elder sister, married Joseph | Barker, also of a ploneer famly, and who |continued to take an active and influen- tial par( in the business encerprises of Omaha until his death, a few vears since. Mrs. Barker was a woman of marked in- dividuality, of keen perception, wit, adapta- |bility, cheerfulness and generosity of na- |ture. During her residence here of a half century she was noted in domestic life for |her strong family attachments and unre- {served devotion to family dutfes, and in !soclal 1ite for her cordial friendships, her | kinaly amenities ana the gracious, informal hospitality which helps to make social in- | tercourse delightful. These secured to her the large circle of loving friends, repre- sented by those who followed her to the last and left her beside her husband at Forest Lawn Her charitie quiet and constant, were begtowed, not to be seen or for display, but the impulses which prompt to kind «ds. She was long a | member of the F scopal chureh, in the faith of which and as a eommunicant St. Mathias' church she died. It may be well sald of her—and there need be no higher praise—that in a long life and by her examp! member of the community, s a daughter, a sister, a wife and a Chris- !tlan mother, she lilustrated the best type of American womanhood. as a WAKELEY.

Sold by all druggists, whist you | old gentleman had & bad attack of cough On the 15th day of next April, 5,00 men will start out to gather the information upon which the Thirtesnth Census will be based. Never before has such careful preparation been made to secure honest, accurate, and complete returns. The direc- tor of census realizes the difficulty of secur- Ing good, competent and faithful enumera- tors, because the period Is too short to Justity employed men to leave thelr regular work, and the pay is too small to attract the best men. It will take fifteen days to make the city enumerations and thirty days for the country districts. The pay will amount to about § & day in the country and a trifle more In the clties. It was suggested that the position of enurherator be made one of honor, and that the men serve without pay, as le done in some European countries, a medal of honor being given to those who serve well and faithtully. Director Durand thinks that such an arrangement might be made at some future time, but that it would not be expedient under present conditions. He does hope, however, to get many men who Wwill serve more because of interest in the work than for the compensation involved, He ex- pects to make use of many of the crop reports correspondents of the Department of Agriculture, many of the students of colleges and universities, and as many school teachers as he can get The population schedule will be carried by every one of the 8,000 people who will constitute the army of enumeration, but only 45,000 of them will carry the agricul- tpral schedules. The statistics of mines and quarries and manufactures will be taken by a corps of chief and assistant speclal agents, 2000 strong. They will be the cavalry of the census army and thelr work may continue for fifteen months. It is realized that aside from the actual enumeration of the population the most important Inquiry appertains to the farm With all the progress America has made | a8 a manufacturing nation, the fixed capi- | tal in manufacturing industries s less than alf as much as that invested in agricul- ture. A special effort Is to be made to secure accuracy in farm returns. To that end the director has caused to be {ssued @ long statement, which he hopes will reach every farmer in the country, im- pressing upon the farmer the importance of keeping an accurate record of all his farm operations, sales, etc., for the cal- endar year 1909, that he may be ready for the enumerator, The director points out that while the Department of Agriculture has a wonderfully efficient corps of crop estimators and reporters, the industry is 50 vast and many of its elements and con- ditions so intangible to superficial obser- vation, that all its figures would become practically valueless were they not regu- larly revised in the light of actual census returns. In the statement sent out to the farmers is an outline of the agricultural schedule, and cach farmer is requested to make a note of each particular bit of in- formation called for as soon s he gets it. which will have a peculiar interest at this time when conservation is uppermost in so This 1s an innovation which augurs well for the accuracy of the returns. One Inquiry many minds, is that which relates to the number of acres of wooded and cleared land on the farms of the country. The farm operations will cover the calendar year 1906, while the stock on hand, prac- ticaliy an inventory of farm weaith, will be as of April 16, 1910. There probably will be some women enu- merators, more especially In those states where women have the right of suffrage. | It is hardly probable, however, that the number of women enumerators will amount to as much as one per cent of the whole, In the Oklahoma census a few women were employed, and they made a good rec- ord of thelf sex.” Of course it {s only the exceptional woman that stands any show of appointment, so that it is little wonder that those who were appointed made fine records Careful tab will be kept on every enumerator's work all the time he is in the field. He will be supplied with two cards for every day's work. Each night he will fill them out, forward one to the supervisor of his district and the other to the census office In Washington. He must give a list of the places he has visited, the number of peoplo he nas enumerated—in short, a gen- eral history of his day's work. Each office will carefully check his cards, and it there is the slightest reason to suspect that he is not doing his work properly and exactly, Some Things You Want to Know The Thirteenth Census—Gathering the Data he will be asked to explain. His final re port must balance exactly with the sum of his dally reports Up to the census of 1880 It was required that all the returns of population be posted at wome conspicuous place in the enumer- ation distriot so that every person Inter- ested could make sure that there was no padding of lists and no omissions. Sinee that time the dally report system has been in vogue, and has largely served the same purpose, at the same time greatly reducing the expense of the work. In the past there have been many at- tempts at padding the lists. In one census & Missississippi enumerator, a negro, made the returns for al the fazms in his district, and then duplicated these returns for every member of the family on each farm. This padding was for the sole purpose of in- creasing his pay. Usually padding has been more marked in the citiek, and has been done moré for the purpose of ‘‘DoOst- ing” population totals than anything else in the 1590 census two cities In a north cen- tral state undertook to pad their popula- tion returns. Each was watching the other The one went at it in & coarse, crude wa. and was soon caught in the aét. The other handled the situation with a finer hand, and might have escaped detection but for the watchfulness of the rival eity in one eity there ware several hundred people returned as permanent dwellers in the union station. A prominent newspaper building was reported to have mixty-five permanent residents. When the censun bureau decided upon n re-enumeration, a committee was sent to Washington to pro test against It. Among the members of the committee was the owner of the blg news paper building. When he had spoken at some length supporting the acouracy of the first returns, the record for his own build- ing wax produced. He was forced to join in the laugh that followed at his own ex- penwe. 1t remained for a man under the very shadow of the dome of the national capi- tol to discover the mest unique way of padding his returns at the last census. He was a Maryland enumerator, and he visited the cemeteries in his district and returned the names on the tombstones. But he was not able to cover up his tracks and was very soon overtaken by the lynx- eyed census office detectives. Bitter disappointment i in store for many cities next ‘vear. For. Instance, Los Angeles and Seattle are each determined to be written down by the thirteenth census as the second city on the Papific const, and they have been booming them- selves for all they are worth. Thelr race Is only one of dozens that are now going on. Buffalo is working hard in advance and Houston and San Antonio are having a great race for primacy In Texas. It Is the common experience of census au- thorities that when the showdown comes very few cities are able to live up to their claims of population. Some of them, how- ever, recognising the danger of exaggerated claims, have stopped setting their figures above the census mark. 1t is estimated that-the actual cost of enumeration or gathering the data will be in the neighborhood of $,000,00. At the last census the average pay for each enumerators was about $60. It 1s expected that fully 9 per cent of this will be patd out within three months of the date of be- ginning the enumeration. As stated be- fore the returne of manufacturing, mining and quarrying will be ‘secured 'by special agents. These men will be appointed be- cause of their especial fitness for the work and there will be several assistants under each chiet special agent. It is hoped that @ highly competent corps of agents equip- ped with simplified schedules will make this census of manufactures a notable one. If the country continues to grow in the next twenty years as It jms grown in the last doubie decade, the: fifteentli “census will require an army of meh as lirge as Grant commanded at Appomattox to carry out the work. At least $20,000000 will be required to execute the task. Some ex- perts think that the census will soon be- come such an extensfve thing as to topple over of its own welghtjbut the majority of those who have followed the develop- ment of census taking from the beglnning to the present, unhesitatingly declare that every recurring period produces more ac- curate returns and drives the business of census taking nearer to the hoped-for goal of an exact sclence.
