Abstract
Summary This is a translation, complete with some comment, of A. A. Chuprov's early paper on sampling read in 1910 at the Congress of Russian Natural Scientists and Physicians, Moscow, first published in 1912 and available until now only in Russian. Chuprov's paper is popular-scientific. He vividly described the history of sampling and its penetration into natural science, explained the arguments of its partisans and opponents and argued that statistics was the link between natural science and sociology. His paper was indeed topical since even in 1921 E. Czuber, Vienna, did not mention sampling in his book on statistical methods.
