To the Farmers of the United States: The department of agriculture is vitally interested in the census of agriculture for which the enumeration is now in progress. Every farmer should also be interested in this work because this census will result in obtaining facts that will lead to a proper understanding of the actual conditions existing thruout the country. The census is taken by the department of commerce in co-operation with the department of agriculture. The schedule of inquiry was approved bj the department of agriculture and directed to determine matters of fundamental importance to the welfare of, the agricultural industry. This census is needed as a basis for the annual crop estimates of the department of agriculture, and it is of great importance that the results be accurate. The totals of farm acreage, land utilization, livestock, crops, etc., will show actual conditions during 1924 and will be used for the preparation of estimates for each year until the Mod census. • «.>•< This census is being taken primarily for the benefit of the farmers. I can assure them that all of the information contained on the census schedule will be treated as strictly confidential and will be used only for statistical purposes to show the totals for the different counties and states. All this information will directly or indirectly be of benefit to farmers and to farmers' associations and organizations thruout the country. It will help congress to legislate wisely in matters affecting the farmers' interests. I desire therefore to appeal to tin farmers to give prompt reply to all of the inquiries on the schedule and in every way possible facilitate the work of the enumerator, so that the census may be taken quickly and that there may be no delay in tabulating the figures and publishing the totals.
