QUESTIONS ON THE CENSUS FORM Government to Have Full Details On Life of the Country. Once upon a time a decree went out from Caesar Agustus that all the world should be taxed -in other words that the census should be taken of everyone in the Ronan Em- pire forin those bright early days apparently taxing did not mean mills on the dollar or somuch of yourin- come, until recently, added to tine price of a hat. Now Canada isto have amighty registration somewhat after the an- cient Caesar's fashion, but much more thorough. it will begin by finding out exactly every than, wo- man and child in tate Dominion, at the hour of midnight when May. 31st is giving place to June 1st, ! Tite census is to be taken "as of June lst" but the hour fixed is really the hour of midnight, A tiny Canadian citizen who draws the ,first breath of life in the last minute of May 31st, will figure in the total millions, An 'aged than who goes out with the dawn on June 1st will count in the total that will stand as Canada's official population for ten years. But this is not ail, if you have a patch or garden no bigger that a men's hand that grows one •currant bush capable of producing one quart of berries, that quart . will swell the total. li you have a brood of the most tiny chickens so will they. For not 'only Must the farther snake com- plete returns of almost every blade of grass but so must the town folks of the products of their gardens and their hen houses. The Huron enumerators have re- ceived implicit instructions from Ot- tawa about taking the census.

Neither are doctors, lawyers, not other profession=s, (4) Covering products other than' those grown in farms.

The enumerators have got to go into every house and get this information, If boarders are not at hone at the time of calling in lodging houses or hotels special forms will be left for them to fill in. In hotels transient guests will not be taken. The principle is simply: where- a, man sleeps there will his census be taken. People in Jails, penitentiar- ies, hospitals or other institutions of any kind will be registered as of such abode. The census commissioners are very insistent that people should under- stand that facts or statistics given to the enumerators may not be used except for statistical compilation. Positive assurance may be demanded on this point by people being. register- ed. The desire of the , country is to have tate census accurate to the last degree, if a .mart's statement of in- come on the census forth varies front that•given on the income tax fortes ite need not be afraid of fine or heavy levy-thej finance department at Ot- tawa will not have access to the census sheets, • Oath of Secrecy: The enumerators individually have also to take an oath of secrecy.
