Unlike the old Taluk Tables which presented for taluks only abridged versions of the more important tables in the All-India series, the tables included in these Hand hooks cover, with one exception, the entire range, and exhibit taluk or tractwise details for the prescribed sequence of A, B, C, D & E series published in Part II of the 1951 Census Report. The exception" C. I-Household (size and composition)" Table, has beim omitted here for reasons explained in a fly-leaf at the appropriate place. 3. Of the t~tbles of the 1951 vintage presented here, the A series consists of U-eneml Population Tables, the B series of all the Economic Tables, the C of all the agewise tables and the D series consists of all the social and cultural tables produced this time. The solitary table of the E series exhibits summary figures for taluks. The age wise tables in the C series emerge for the first time from samples extracted at random. 4. Of the five series of tables presented in these Handbooks, talukwise data ute offered in the first and the last namely the A and E series. The intervening series exhibit figures only for tracts. Tracts are units constituted purely for tabulation con venience, by combining one or more areas, without reference either to their geogra phical contiguity or to administrative linkage. The rural areas of o11e or more taluks have been combined to constitute a rural tract, while all the urban areas of a district have been welded together to form a single DISTRICT URBAN tract. The three princi pal cities namely, Bangalore Corporation, Mysore and K. G. F. have, however, been eonstituted into separate tracts, Bangalore Corporation being split up into two tracts, one comprising the Civil area and the other embracing the whole of the City area. 5. The village statistics which used to be published separately in the past as Part V of the Mysore series, now appear in the Handbooks immediately after Table E, in considerably more amplified form than in the past. In addition to furnishing the usual popUlation and literacy figures for each village or town, details are offered now for the first time, regarding occupied houses, households, inmates of institutions, house]ess population and distribution of population by livelihood classes and sex. 6. .The 1951 crop of Tables show many departures from established practice. :bJasily the most notable of them is the shift in the basis of classification this time from religion to economic. In the past the population was divided on the basis of religion at the very outset of sorting and this separation was maintained throughout the sorting operations in order that as many characteristics as possible might be cross-tabulated by religion. But this time, the basic religious categories have been substituted by 11 livelihood classes and these consequently pervade all the cross tabulations carried out in 1951. According to this new scheme, the entire population has been divided, in the first instance, into two broad livelihood categories, namely agricultural and non-agricultural, and each eategory has been sub-divided into four livelihood elasses. These eight e1asses are as follows:- CATEGORY A-.Agricult1tral Glasses I Cultivation of land, wholly or mainly owned and their dependants II Cultivation of land, wholly or mainly unowned and their dependants III Cultivating labourers and their dependants., IV Non-cultivating owners of land; agricultural rent receIvers and their dependants CATEGORY B-iVon-Agl'icultural Glasses Persons (including dependants) who derive their principal means of livelihood from :- V Production other than cultivation VI Commerce VII Transport VIII Other services and miscellaneolls sources 7 .. It would be a good plan to study the fiy-Iea\7es before dippiI?g int<? the tables as they draw attention to special features of minor categories which might happen to have been omitted in the tables. 8. 'While the Talllk and Village Tables of the past were gifts of provincial dis cretion, tbese District CensHs Handbooks are being pllblished for the first time in tbeir present form in accordance with Central direction.
