4to. cxxvi, 743 pp. Original half maroon morocco over marbled boards, raised bands, gilt-stamped spine title; joints cracked and extremities rubbed. Inscription on ffep.: "Presented by the Hon EP More Esq to John Service Jr, July 21, 1869. Bought at the Service auction by George Holmes and presented to HK Smith by George Holmes." Very good. RARE. This massive census was conducted during the Civil War, published just 2 years after. "The immense expenditures of the war brought the burden of a heavy debt upon the country, which could only be met by taxes upon property and productive incomes, and novel schemes were devised by Congress for raising these revenues. As the Census makes inquiries concerning the amount of capital invested in manufactures, the cost of materials and labor, and the value of products, it incidentally discloses the profits of businesses, and the amount of incomes. The utmost difficulty was therefore found in many cases, in arriving at a correct return upon these several subjects. Men otherwise intelligent, would often fail to discern, or profess to disbelieve, that the Census was not in some way connected with taxation. . ." âÂÂ" Preface. Franklin B. Hough (1822-1885), scientist, physician (practicing in Somerville in St. Lawrence County, New York), one-time mineralogist, writer, and historian. He was most important becoming the first chief of the United States Division of Forestry, the predecessor of the United States Forest Service. He was among the first in the US to call attention to the depletion of our forests, becoming known as the "father of American forestry". "In 1854, Hough was appointed as superintendent of the 1855 New York State census, the first complete census of the state. He returned to Lewis County in 1860 to settle in Lowville, New York. The same year, he published A history of Lewis County, in the state of New York. In 1862, he started a periodical, The American Journal of Forestry. Due to a lack of subscribers, he retired it after only a year. In 1861, with the advent of the American Civil War, Hough worked as an inspector for the United States Sanitary Commission. . . Ten years after supervising the 1855 New York State census, Hough returned to the job of overseeing the 1865 state census. Reviewing the returns, he noted with alarm a declining trend in the availability of timber. Finding additional evidence in the federal census of 1870, which he also supervised, he presented a paper entitled On the Duty of Governments in the Preservation of Forests to the 1873 meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Portland, Maine." Hough then went on to produce the official 1877 Report on Forestry. When the Division of Forestry was established in 1881 he became its first chief. See: "Franklin B. Hough (1822-1885)".
