to victory, one of the best drilled and

Curious Crop Reports.

A short time ago the general freight
agents of the various railways in Cana
da sent to the agents along their lines
of road asking for a report of the state
of the crops in their vicinity These
reports were valuable, and a synopsis
of each Of them appeared in the Globe.
The reporter was, however, much
amused in looking through the agents
returns to see some very curious blum
ders made by intelligent men. One,
for instance, said Roots of all kinds
will be q good crop, especially apples. y
The most extraordinary ono of the num-
Der was received from an important
junction point on two lines of railway
in the center of an agricultural region,
and read as follows:

know ANYTHING about crops here.

Within the past six years the produc-
ton of white pine lumber in the North
west has more than doubled. In 1878 II
was 1924 NJ feet. and in 1884 had
risen to 7,935,033 NJ feet. the largest
quantity ever produced in year. Nor
was the production in 1878 remarkably
small. Prior to that year ii had ranged
between 1893. $50 VI feet in 1873. and 81
sos. 1888 NJ feet in 1877. hence the present
production is fully double the maximum
production prior to 1879. But it is to be
added that the production last year was
very largely in excess of consumption
Lack of information as to the exact stocks
on hand at the mills for previous years
makes it difficult to say just how the con-
sumption has varied. but the stock on
hand at the close of 1884, according to
The Northwestern Lumberman, was g.
516 ,9j7 NJ feet. or nearly as much as
full years production six years ago.
