The results of the Thirteenth Decennial Census were published in two forms: a comprehensive report in the volumes; and a condensed report, the Abstract of the Thirteenth Census, which was issued with Supplements for the different states.

The Abstract contains the principal statistics gathered at the decennial enumeration of 1910 on the subject of population (except occupation statistics), agriculture, manufactures, and mining, and gives figures on all subjects for the United States as a whole, and for the different states; together with statistics relating to population and manufactures for the principal cities.

Other editions of the Abstract were also issued with supplements relating to each of the states and to the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto Rico, respectively. Each of these editions contain all of the matter published in the Abstract, and, in addition thereto, a second section which treated the same subjects with greater detail for the state to which it refers, and embraced all of the census results published concerning that state, its counties, cities, and other civil divisions, except as to occupations.
