WASHINGTON Dec. 19 An exam-
ination of the statistical charts of the
report of the commissioner of Indian
affairs Cato Sells for the fiscal year
ending June 30 1916 discloses upon
a comparispn of the figures presented
among other notable things several
startling facts which are of interest
to those concerned about the welfare
of the American Indian.
In 1912 approximately 160000 In-
X T Tu
dian costumes and adopted tho hablll-
iiiuius oi xne wuiie man. uuring me
four years qding in June 1916 this
number had been Increased so that
today very nearly 7.5000 Indians or
30 per cent of the whole number have
learned to read and write the English
language.
3faay Go to Church.
That the Indian has shown no in-
clination to neglect his religious
duties is shown by the fact that where
in 1912 70000 Indians were reported
as churchgoing. this number has been
Increased to 97000 or over 40 per
cent in 1916. .
The Indians as a class arc appar-
ently making substantial financial
progress Where in 1912 their in-
come from employment arid other
sources including their farming and
stock raising activities was $22000.-
000 in 1916 It was more than $28-
000000. .Their livestock which in 1912 was
"worth 'about $22000000 in 1916 is
f worth $30000000.
pyjju Indians were engagea in iarm
Ung; in 1916 35823 have turned to
! the tillage of tho soil for a liveli-
Jhood and are real farmers.
In 1911 the acreage cultivated by
Indians was 383025; in 1916 the In-
dians were farming 678527 acres.
The Indian is appreciating more
and-more the importance of hospitals
and . proper care during sickness. His
original objection to the white man's
medicine and his tendency to turn
to the Indian medicine man to
ameliorate his disease is fast pass-
mg away

effectiveness of his campaign to Ira-
prove" health conditions more than
the dropping of the death rate from
approximately 30 per 1000 In 1915 to
a little over 22 per 1000 in 1916.
In 1915 35 per cent of the deaths
of Indians were due to tuberculosa
while In 1916 only 20 per cent was
attributed to that cause.
The effectiveness of the "save the
babies" campaign is disclosed In the
fact that while in 1914 there were
2.391 deaths of Indian children under
3 years of age in 1916 there were on-
ly 1303 deaths.
