This year Canada takes a sig­ nificant step forward in the de­ velopment of population and agriculture statistics. On June 1 the 'Dominion Bureau of Statis­ tics will take the country’s first five-year Census on a nation­ wide scale. Dominion Statistician Herbert Marshall reports that a task force of about 16 thousand census­ takers will canvass the country to find out the effect of develop­ ments in the last five years on Itihe distribution of the popula­ tion. Canada is now growing so .rapidly and changing so much that a five-year census is neces­ sary to provide .government, and industry with accurate figures for intelligent forecastingand planning. In the past .the Bureau has taken a national count only once every 10 years—the last in June, 1951. The distribution of the people within the country is a matter of paramount importance to govern­ ment and industry,, for develop­ ment plans and the expenditure of huge sums of money iare based upon these figures.1 Per capita grants, for example, have been the basis of the Dominion- Provincial tax agreements, This year's Census, however, will be less detailed—and less costly—than the one taken five years ago. It will cover only ^population and agriculture. It will not delve into employment and earnings, population char- and WATCH FOR A The Story In TWO '53 PONTIAC SEDANS Clean and dependable TWO '53 DODGE SEDANS Drive these '53 HENRY J.

Indeed, most Canadians will foe asked -to state only their sex, age, martial status and relationship to the head of the household. Besides these, farmers 'will he asked a limited number of questions concerning agricultural activities. It has been apparent that com­ plete data on agriculture were needed more frequently than once a decade. The most import­ ant of Canada’s primary indus­ tries, agriculture has a total net value of production exceeding that of forestry, fisheries-, trap­ ping, mining and electric ipower combined. Because agricultural output has such far-reaching implications for the welfare of the Canadian economy, annual and even more frequent statistics in considerable variety have to be available to assist in market analysis, forecasting and produc­ tion planning, and formulating government policy in. relation to such matters as price supports, Many of the most important statistical series are in the nature of annual estimates tied into the preceding census. The census iprovides foepch-marks, which are reduced or increased for various crops and Livestock Counts each year .according to the indications shown by annual sample surveys. •V » 5 Shipka Four babies' were baptized foy Rev.
