Census Seeks Farmers' Data The day the census enumerator visits the farmer is an important one. Most farmers, prior to that time, will have received a question naire to fill out in their leisure time. When the enumerator comes all that will be necessary will be to check through to see that noth-ing has been left out. This should take only a few minutes. It is es-timated by the nation's top stat-isticians that if 75 of the 6,000, 000 farmers in America would fill out this questionnaire before the census enumerator arrives, the saving to the government would amount to $1,000,000. Time spent answering the cen-sus questions, and the enumera-tor's final check, are' important be-cause almost every plan that ef-fects the business of farming be-gins with the data the census pro-vides.
