Unlike the Taluk Tables of'the past which used to present only abridged versions of the more important tables of the All-India series, the tables includeel in these Handbooks cover the entire range with the exception of the C series, and offer taluk or tractwise details for the prescribed Reries of tables published in Part II of the 1951 Census Report. The age-wise tables of the C series are omitted in these Handbooks because the samples from which these tables have been constructed are too small to be of any statistical significance at the tract 01' taluk level. 3. Of the tables of the 195] vintage presented here, the A series consist of' General Population Tables, the B series of all the Economic Tables, the D series of all the Social and Cultural Tables produced this time and the solitary table of the E series exhibits summary figures for talllks. 4. Of the four series of tables presented in these Handbooks, talukwise data aTe 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 one 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 constituted 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, houseless population and distribution of population by livelihood classes and sex. 6. The 1951 crop of Tables show many departures from established practice., Easily 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 through(Jut the sorting opemtions in order that as many eharacteristiDs as possible might be cross-tabulated by re1igion. 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 category has been sub-divided into four livelihood c dasses. These eight classes are as follows :- CATEGORY A-Agricttltural Classes 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-Non-Agricultuml Classes Persons (including dependants) who derive their principal means of livelihood from :- V Production (other than cultivation) VI Commerce VII Transport VIII Other services and miscellaneous sources 't 7. It would be a good plan to stlldy the fly-leaves before dippmg mto the tables as they draw attention to special featnres and offer details of minor categories which might happen to have been omitted in the tables. 8. While the TaInk and Village Tables of the past were gifts of provincial dis: cretion, these District Census Handbooks are being publisbed for the first time in their preSeJlt form in accordance with Central direction. G. NANJUNDIAH, Census Commissioner ]or lYlysore.
