AGRICULTURE CENSUS OF GUAM
METHODS Census was conducted by personal enumeration. Guam has been divided into enumeration districts, each one assigned an enumerator. For 1992, contact was based on a list of farm operations developed from the 1987 agricultural census along with information from the Guam Department of Agriculture and theUniversity of Guam College of Agriculture. Enumerators were required to visit all dwelling units in rural areas, list the name of the head of household, and ask a series of screening questions on livestock holdings and crop sales by type. An agricultural census questionnaire was completed when a "yes" answer was received to any one screening question. For urban and other heavily populated areas, enumerators were given a list of prior census farm operations and enumerated those still being operated as a farm.

NARA | Federal Register | U. S. Electoral College
The founders appropriated the concept of electors from the Holy Roman Empire (962 - 1806). An elector was one of a number of princes of the various German states within the Holy Roman Empire who had a right to participate in the election of the German king (who generally was crowned as emperor). The term "college" (from the Latin collegium), refers to a body of persons that act as a unit, as in the college of cardinals who advise the Pope and vote in papal elections. In the early 1800's, the term "electoral college" came into general usage as the unofficial designation for the group of citizens selected to cast votes for President and Vice President. It was first written into Federal law in 1845, and today the term appears in 3 U.S.C. section 4, in the section heading and in the text as "college of electors." ... [Read More]
