Austria 5OOOOO0OO. The United States produces

In order to appreciate the advantages of the
United States the population should be taken In
account; that is for the United States 40 100000.
and, therefore, we produce forty bushels per head.
while Europe, with population of quite so OOO,.
600, produces only sixteen bushels per head; Rus
sia twenty six bushels per head, and Great Brit
ain only four bushels per head. As the average
quantity of grain consumed per head 10 fifteen
bushels, we produce nearly three times as much
as we want, Russia scarcely twice Its wants, Ku-
rope on an average all needed, but Great Britain
not much over one fourth. II will be seen that
