NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY. JANUARY q, 1883.
A Great Country.

Gen. Bradley L. johnson, of Baltimore
recently delivered an address before the
Maryland Agricultural Society. From
it we extract the following, which is
not new, but well calculated to raise a
doubt as to whether even our spread
eagle American imagination can really
grasp the superlative greatness of the
country we inhabit:
~The imagination hardly takes in the
agricultural future of this American
empire. The States south Of the POtO-
mac and east of the Rio Grande contains
100000 square miles more that all the
northern states from Maine to the Rocky
Mountains.
FLORIDA is as large as New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut. Texas is larger
than all New England, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and Ohio. The
unsettled northwest beyond Minnesota
will make twelve states as large as New
York. All this territory is virgin. There
is more land belonging to the United
States in Mississippi than in Kansas,
Nebraska or Minnesota. The southern
country is less known than the new ter
ritOries. In old Virginia, within three
hundred miles of Washington there are
deposits of minerals and metals more
abundant more various, and more val
liable than in any other equal erea of
territory on the continent of which we
now have knowledge. One county there
of six hundred square miles, has no
wagon roads. and no wheeled vehicle
has ever been in it, unless snch one
has been taken there in the last twelve
months. | venture to say that the
mountain regions of North Carolina,
il. soil, in climate, in diversified wealth
of mine and forest, is uneXcelled uDOn
this globe.
"In the fine lands along the Virginia
and North Carolina line, the labor of
single man will produce from $1,000 to
$4,000 worth of tobacco, and in Missis-
.sippi the market product of one labOrer
in cotton is worth near $1,000. This in
calculable wealth of soil is offered
to the labor of the world almost for the
asking. The toll of a single year will
provide man with freehold and a
home.
"The result Of this condition of things
is easy fOretold. The printing press,
ahe ocean steamer, the telegraph, have
drawn all the nations of ChristendOm
into closer relationship than Bel-Air
ha dwith Baltimore city. three genera
tiOns ago" ~. at I

Crops Abroad.

The State Department at Washington
furnishes some information regarding
crops abroad which present some fea-
lures rather novel to the American mind.
The showing of the amOuRt of rye con-
sumed abroad is rather astonishing. For
instance, the report Of Vice Consul Zim-
norman, for Germany, shows the amount
of rye grown last year to have been 218.-
100000 bushels,against 100000 bushels
of wheat. and for the same year 9OOO.-
900 bushels of wheat were exported, and
but 100000 bushels of rye. Denmark
grew 100000 bushels of wheat last
year. and 100000 bushels of rye.
France grew 100000 bushels of rye
last year, and 23,0OOOOO bushels of
'maslOn"-wheat and rye grown to-
gether. Austria grew 64,OOO,OOO bushels
of rye last gear, against 100000
bushels of wheat, and for the last ten
years has averaged 100000 bushels a
year of rye, and 36,00O,OO0 bushels of
wheat. Even Russia, supposed to be the
great wheat field of Europe, grows
700O00O0O bushels of rye per year.
against 300.000,0OO bushels wheat.

Wood as n Fuel.

In comparing wood with coal as a fuel
it is safe 10 assume that 215 pounds of
dry wood is equal to pound Of average
quality soft coal, and that the fuel value
of the same weight of different woods is
very nearly the same. That is to say, a
pound of hickory IL worth no more as
fuel than apOund of pine, assuming both
to be dry. If the value be measured by
weight IL Is important that the wood be
thoroughly dry, as each 10 per cent of
water or moisture will extract about II
per cent from its value as fuel. 1t may
be interesting in this connection to give
the weight of one cord of different woods
which are thoroughly dry. These
weights are about as follows: .lt
Pounds.
Hickory or hard mapl. .... ....... ....a 1850
Beach, red oak and black oak -. $40
Poplar, chestnut. and elm. go. D.. ......',35O
Average oI pine 1000
The fuel value of these different kinds
OF wood, as compared with coal, is about
as follows; 4 IfIIfr
Pounds.
cord hickory or hard maple eaua, to
cord white oak equal to coal. ...iYI5
4 cord beach, red oak or black oak
cord poplar, chestnut or elm equal to
coal...... ......l ,05O
cord average of pine equal to coal ....... 925
1t is supposed, of course, i'm both tables
that all the wood has been air dried, and
the comparative values of woods not
mentioned in the table may readily be
appropriated by the reader Metal
