ural Facts.

From the Agricultural Report for
1869, 100000 extra copies OF which
are now going into the hands OF the
people, we extract the following
interesting note:
The cultivation OF sugar, vineyards
and oranges at the South Is resum-
ing its former success, with improve /
implements and fertilizers. Tie
painting of new lands in the West
with wheat is removing westward,
year after year, the center OF wheat
production, and increasing the dis
lance Of transportation; while the
railroads by their combinations, and
advance OF tolls to secure dividends
on watered stock, are increasing in
equal ratio the cost OF treights. The
Department has distributed 81. 500
packages of seeds, mostly to men,
beers Of Congress, and the Commits.
sioner INDUCES in the lively faith that
some Of them 'come up"
The statistician, J. X. Dodge, says
that the total value of all the cereals.
with hay, cotton and tobacco, is ST..
$40, l79,S43, about one-t.nth Of the
whole value of real estate. Corn,
$65S, $50, 200, and then follows hay,
1887 &C., 600; cotton, s3O3, GOO, 900;
wheat, s247 900, 100; and oats, sl37,.
347 900.
The relative value of the yield per
acre, as affected by prevailing prices,
are in this order: Tobacco, potatoes.
cotton. barley, hay, corn, buck wheat,
oats, rye, wheat.
Vermont raises the greatest aver.
age value in corn per acre, viz: S47.
60. New Hampshire is first in val
lie per acre in wheat, and Connect.
cut in tobacco, her average yield be-
ing 1891 per acre. Kansas, in 1869,
yielded the largest average crop per
acre of corn, viz. asa bushels Ore
gon yield the larges, average per
acre of wheat, viz: 10 bushels
The State yielding the smallest aver
age per acre in wheat was South Car
DINA, &C bushels. Kansas yields the
largest average crop OF oats, 42.1
bushels; California the largest OF rye,
3l.5 bushels; also OF barley, 353.-
North Carolina, strange 10 say, is set
down for the largest average yield
per acre OF buckwheat. 800 bushels;
while Virginia produces only third
of that crop, and Tennessee only a
fifth. In potatoes Vermont produces
the highest average yield per acre,
l60 bushels; Michigan, 155. We
may perhaps ascribe the large yield
in Vermont to the fact that the acres
are so uneven that they can plant ten
or twelve more rows of potatoes on
en- acre than If it were level In hay
the largest average crop per acre is
raised in Iowa, being l.S6-100 tons.
The largest total cash value per acre
OF all crops planted belongs to Neva-
da, 5000; the lowest TO Delaware,
Sl1.SS.
Our exports Of agricultural prod
ucts for the year amounted i'll value
to s3S9.674,6S1. OF which cotton

ri:ultural products have approached

The price OF logging out West
seems to be governed by sliding
scale whose principle s.not easily
understood. When Miss l. y a i a
Thompson horsewhlpped the editor
OF the Chicago Times she had to pay
for that privilege round hundrcA
dollars--indesd we are not sure that
it was not more. When MIR. Murat
Halstead punched the head OF Mr..
Lavender, the other day, in. Cihcin-
natl, the performance was dirt cheap
at twenty five dollars, and we don't
believe Mr. Lavender would take an.
other like 1t tor twice the money.
These two casss tend to show that u
discrimination is exercised in favor
OF the press, and that in the eye of
the law it is just tour times as wrong
for you to fog an editor as Tor an
editor TO fog you. But what are we
to think of the following instance
just reported at Chicago, Mrs.
Mills, widow and keeper Of genteel
boarding house, "went for" Mr..
Knapp, Methodist minister, because
he had asked another lady TO go with
him TO hear Nilsson. She assaulted
him in bed with snuff and raw.
hide, and being sued for the assault
was fined $50. Now why should
Mrs Mills enjoy such luxuries at
lower rate than Miss Thompson? 1t
Is true that Mr. Knapp had been
sutton for the affections OF the out.
ragged widow-had indeed pursued
her with impunity for more than a
year, and conquered her heart by
dlnt Of persevering entreaty-and
the original offense OF having invited
the other lady to hear Nilsson may
have been Sc, off against the regular
price OF Chicago horsewhipping
but then it IS also true that Mr..
Knapp has wife already, and was
only "conditionly engaged to Mrs.
Mills, the condition being not wholly
with divorce from his
present spouse; and not even u Chi
cage court can pretend that a widow
has an exclusive claim to the atten.
ton OF a married ministcr--a claim,
that is. OF nature to be enforced
with raw-hides. We can only con-
Guide that the editors in Chicago are
rare and extremely precious articles,
and that Methodist ministers are very
little thought OF indeed.-[New York

A Wisconsin correspondent ofthc
Country Gentleman, referring to
pork raising in that State, says "A
great many have failed to make pork
raising profitable this year, not be-
cause they had not plenty Of sound
corn, but because pork was high last
year, and every old hog was turned
off that could be got fat, and all have
to fall back upon late Spring pigs
this year, which are very numerous
and. instead Of selling lnaturcr hogs
in September at $500 per cwt, on
foot, we are now obliged to sell small
pigs for $3.50 per cwt.
