The Size of It.
20 the Editor Of the Press !:

To the Editor OF the Press:
Frequent mention has been made in
the papers and in conversation of the
immense grain crop of this country for
the year 1891, but we venture to say that
very few fully realize its vast proper
lions. A few words by way of famil-
lar illustration may assist us in compre-
hending it's immensely. Take for exam
pie the three principal grain crops, of
which there were harvested in the Uni
ted States in 1891 in round numbers,
1900, 100000 bushels of corn, $4,000, 900
bushels of wheat and 750,000,000 bushels
of oats. Now allowing 500 bushels of
corn or wheat and 800 bushels of oats to
a carload, we have 6,277, 800 carloads or
313, S75 trains of twenty cars each. Allow
.thirty-fve feet as the length of car and
couplings, and fifty feet for a locomotive
each train would occupy $50 feet of lin
ear space. The 313,s75 trains would
completely cover a, 5S4 miles of track,
or in other words it would require a
track more than twice round the earth
at the latitude of Boston to give stand
inc room for the cars that this years crop
of corn, wheat and oats would load.
