      ab: Despite the widening scope and increasing accuracy of official statistics, practical sampling procedures remain indispensable tools of the investigator in the field of population. Sampling techniques provide the only method for securing desired population material not collected by the census enumerator. Among the numerous significant items slighted by past censuses but exploited by various sampling devices are those relating to migrations. Sampling techniques are assuming a new importance in official census enumerations as short-cuts to the total population. The most satisfactory solution of this rural sampling dilemma should consolidate the advantages of both units discussed in this article without including the handicaps of either. Several intermediate units accomplishing this with varying degrees of success have been tried in different fields. The final appraisal of the sampling technique used will await additional applications and tests under suitable conditions, and preferably with a much larger sample of the universe.
