AGRICULTURAL statistics show that in the
last fifteen years the production Of wheat and
barley in the United States has doubled; that of
corn, cotton and tobacco moro than doubled;
potatoes nearly doubled; hay increased more
than one-third and oats about lao, ,OOO, 900
bushels. The vast increase in cereals Is mainly
due to the rapid development Of the western
and northwestern states. During the present
generation the corn-center has been transferred
from the south to the west, aud the wheat
center from the middle states to the far west.
From 1870 to 1878 the production Of tobacco in
creased 100 0O0, 600 pounds, mainly in the south;
while Texas and Arkansas have been the chief
contributors to the increase Of two and quarter
million pounds of cotton in the same time. In
the former Isl, ,000, 600 were raised in 1870, and
SO0.O0O,0 900 in 1878; in the latter III, 600, 600
pounds in 10, and 31S, ,0OO, 600 in '7S.
