English Agricultural stats


An interesting and exhaustive report Of the
agricultural aspects of Great Britain and Ireland
for the year 1877 IL furnished by Mr.. II. aiven Of
the statistical and commercial department OF the
London Board Of Trade, based upon the returns
OF 556, 500 oocupiers OF land and $685. live stock
owners, with comparative estimates OF such dis
triots as have not yet been hoard from. The re-
port shows the cultivated area OF the whole
United Kingdom to be 47,2Gs0O0 acres
exclusive Of heath aud mountain. pasture land
England as s SGss and AND Was Ell: rsa
increase Of 100000 acres since 1876, while
in Ireland there IL an apparent decrease OF 297,-
900 acres, resulting from q change In csssiaoa-
ton. The tables set forth fully the extent to
which crops OF all kinds are under cul ,ivstion,
but the totals arrived at will furnish clear idea
oil the agricultural results accomplished. The
cereal acreage Of the United Kingdom. includ-
ing the Isle OF Man and the Channel Islanus, is
reported at II, 1903, 1856; green crops, or roots,
4,961, 69l; clover, sainfoin, and grasses under

acres, an increase Of per cent over 1876, but an
appreciabe decrease from former years.
In live stock Of all kinds satisfactory increase
IL reported though through the interference OF
steam cultivation there is q slight decrease in
agricultural horses. Brood mares and young
horses present increase Of per cent over 1876,
oocasoned by . material augmentation OF im.
ports from abroad which amounted to 4O,763 in
1876 and 24379 during the present year, while the
British exported were respectively 2700 and 1879
In horned cattle the figures have dropped off.
Since 1876 the decrease has been 1per cent in COWS
per cent in other cattle above years old, and
per cent in young cattle, reaching total decrease
OF ~ per cent in cattle OF all kinds. The causes
assigned for the reduction are scarcity OF beef,
foot and mouth disease, and fear OF cattle plague
together with the late restrictions upon importa-
ton and removal. The stock on hand may be
summarized: Horses (ncluding ponies), 1894
1913; COWS and hefers in milk in calf, 3,744 SAT;
