Other mistakes were made that were not so coetly in money but their ultimate effect will be hurtful to the good name of Cana- da. I need only call attention to a few of these mistakes. According to the original ï¬guresl' entered in the schedules by the en-- umerators, a large area of land in; Canada yielded two crops during the 2 census year. This gave rise to a: seeming anomaly between the area in ï¬eld craps in schedule 4; and the area of crops reaped. of which are given in schedule :3“ These two areas very seldom agree, for farmers frequently sow but do not reap, whilst a vast number get; l two crops from some portion of their ; 1 :land during the same year. l‘rom i the evidence taken before the public ; Eaccounts committee Mr. Blue in- ' structed the staff to make these two 1 l , . iareas agree. l‘o do this hundreds lof thousands of ï¬gures had to be ed at a very great ecst. and the ’ inference to be drawn from the ï¬gures ,in the resulting census bulletins is: '. that not a single acre of land in Ca- lnada from the Atlantic to the Paciï¬c l yielded two crops during the census lyear. - In the census of 1891 fallow land was included in the item ï¬eld crops, ‘ and involved no change in the ï¬g. This time the fallow land was add-'2 ed to the area in pasture and involved ' a vast change in the enumerator’s ï¬gures. increasing enormously the apparent area in pasture. Other ;items in the Agricultural schedules i were changed for one reason or other, 2with the most extraordinary re- sults. For instance the area of land {occupied in B. C.. N. 3., N. S and P. if). I. was less by 2,885,662 acres in 11901 than in 1891. This result was iobtained by cutting out large areas :returned by the enumerators as land 7 occu pied. The area in ï¬eld crepe in 1901 was less by 2.441.314 acres than in 1891. This difference arises mainly from the in fallow Was in- fact that the area cluded in ï¬eld crops in 1891. as the farm- ers of Ontario, Quebec N. B. l\. S. and P. E l. have cleared their farms of 4,967,431 acres of bush or forest. â€"Ano|nn n! ‘ The census 0! Agrlcu eath year by the Ontario ( 3 gives the pasture land of i 1901 as 22,964,600 acres. 0 i Return Bulletin XV II 1 their farms is returned as 2,031,116 acres less in 1901 than it was in 1891. This result was obtalne out large areas 0 occupied. and adding a portion of the land returned as forest, to pascure. The greatest discrepancy occurs in the area of pasture land. fallow land was added to pasture, and a large area of forest. To obtain these results the original ï¬gures en. tered by the enumerators in the Sche- dules have been changed in thousands of cases and at vast expense. Rather than be a party to these changes I resigned my position on the census staï¬ in the spring of 190:2. explaining to the Minister of Aeri- iculture niy reasons for so doing.
