a This exhibit is based on the census re
turns, as the “ Report of the Commissioner
of Education ” gives the school population
at the legal school age only, which varies so
widely as to be misleading when used for
making comparisons. (See chart below.)
Besides, the Commissioner’s Report does not
contain data for all states in 1880. This ex
planation applies equally to Attei_dance and
Expenditure.

total outlay is apportioned among all children of school age,
without regard to attendance. In the exhibit on city schools
the expenditure for grounds and buildings is deducted, and that

Note.—'This exhibit has the disadvantage
of the varying basis of legal school age. For
example, the attendance and enrollment of
Boston and Providence are compared with a
school population covering only ten years—
viz., from five to fifteen—
giving them a de
cided advantage over New York, Brooklyn,
Buffalo, and Albany, in which comparison is
made with a school population covering fif
teen years.
