RESOURCES OF THE UNITED STATES.
The Depsrtmeat of Aprieiiltareat the Centennial
Exposition—Chemistry Natural History—
Eronomir lllnsenm—Mlstrostopy —Botany —
Statistics.
Under the above five departments
the United States Government displays
the agricultural resources of our coun
try m the Centennial Exposition at
Philadelphia. This deeply interesting
feature occupies the Western side of
the Southern projection of the mam
moth Government Building.
The collection of the Chemical
division consists of soils, rocks, marls,
fertilizers, agricultural and horticul
tural products, and materials manu
factured from them. The object is to
show, as far as possible in this way,
the history of soils, and their forma
tion by disintegration and decomposi
tion of rocks; marls, including the
green sand, calcareous and phosphatic
from different ages ; natural fertilizers
and their application in manufacture
of artificial fertilizers ; the agricultural
and horticultural products, the value of
which depends upon their chemical
composition, and their utilization by
means of economic methods involving
chemical processes. To carry out this
plan a series of samples of soils is
arranged with reference to the geolog
ical formations from which they were
obtained. Another series, accompanied
by samples of rock, illustrates the
formation of soil by the disintegration
and decomposition of rocks. For ex
ample, there is a specimen of dolerito
rock and soil, formed from decomposed
dolerite ; granite and gneiss rocks and
the soils formed from them. And so,
also, with the rocks of other kinds and
from'other geological formations. Fol
lowing these series are the marls,
among which are some fine specimens
of green sand and calcareous marls
from Now Jersey, and phosphate marls
from South Carolina. The samples of
phosphate marls are taken from differ
ent depths beneath the surface, rang
ing from Bto 5(5 feet. The next inter
esting features of this collection are
the phosphatic rocks from South Car
olina. In one case, line specimens arc
exhibited in a manner designed to
(Strikingly illustrate the differences be
tween the two kinds of phosphate of
lime, known as river rock and land
rock, and the fossil teeth and bones
found in the different formations. The
river rock is much darker than the
land rock, and both kinds are found
in irregular masses, varying in weight
from that • the smaller specimens of
one pounds to that of the hrgo
specimen found in another part of the
Collection, and weighing 1150 pounds.
In another portion of this case arc
Specimens of fertilizing materials of
vegetable and animal origin, including
muck, peat, marsh weeds, sea weeds
(rock weed, gulf weed and kelp ) ; can
cerine, manufactured from the king
crabs so extensively collected on the
coast of New Jorsoy ; dried fish (Men
haden) manufactured in New England;
pork cracklin, dried blood and other
refuse from the abattoirs, etc.; and last,
but by no means least, ‘lie excrements
of bats found in largo quantities in
caves in many of the Southern States.
Some of best samples were obtained
from Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama,
Arkansas and Texas ; and it is believed
they represent a very valuable source
of fertilizing material for the Southern
States.
The combination of the natural fer
tilizing materials (mineral, vegetable
and animal) for the production of arti
ficial fertilizers is illustrated by means
of samples taken from different stages
of the process of manufacture, as car
ried on by the Pacific Guano Company
of Boston; models of the machinery
employed in the process involved, and
specimens of finished products prepar
ed by different American manufactur
ers. Having disposed of the soils and
fertilizers, wo next conic to the agricul
tural and horticultural products and
material resulting from their utiliza
tion.
Beginning with the cereals, there is,
first, the manufacture of flour and
meal from wheat, rye, i orn, buckwheat,
etc., illustrated by means of specimens
taken from different stages of the pro
cess employed—from the raw grain to
the finished product, and the waste
materials resulting. The special pro
ducts used for food and manufactured
from cereals, such as wheaten grits,
steam-cooked and desiccated wheat,
barley and oats, oaten grits, oatmeal,
etc. The further utilization of cer< als
is illustrated by samples of starch and
gum. Among these are starch from
wheat, corn and rice, and the gums
made from them, and of value on ac
count of their adhesive qualities. This
portion of the collection is accompan
ied by models of machinery employed
in the process of manufacture.
*, The production of sugar is respre
sented by specimens of cane sugar and
molasses from New Orleans; beet root
sugar from California; maple syrup
and sugar from New England ; models
of concentrators; filters and dryers,
and photographs showing the method
of collecting and concentrating maple
sap.
In an adjoining case are products
illustrating the process of fermenta
tion and distillation of amylaceous
substances, and the manufacture of
beer, ale, porter and whisky. They
consist of barley, malt in grain and
crushed, unfermented extract, and pale
ale, brown malt, brown stout and por
ter ; corn, rye and wheat, and the malt
and yeasts used in preparation of
material for distillation and production
of whisky. The plans of an American
whisky distillery and model of a still
are interposed between the materia!
ready for distillation, and the high
wine resulting from it. The process of
concentration, rectification and ageing
the whisky is represented by appro
priate specimens of different degrees
and ages. American wine manufac
ture is well illustrated by specimens of
wine made from several varieties of
grapes grown in Virginia, Missouri and
California, which compare favorably
with the productions of other countries.
Near these specimens is a series repre
senting the manufacture of tobacco for
chewing, smoking and snuff, consisting
of material taken from different stages
of the process of stemming, sweeten
ing, drying, etc. A portion of another
cabinet is devoted to the tanning and
dyeing inteiests, and contains samples
of materials of value in these important
industries. Among these materials
are some of those lately discovered,
such as the Ephedra Antisyphillitica
and the Folyjonum Amphihimu. Be
sides these, those well known, the
sumac leaves, barks of oak and other
trees, and the different forms in which
they are found in the markets, are fully
shown. The manufacture of extracts
of hemlock bark, so largely exported
from this country, is illustrated by
samples taken from different stages of
the process of manufacture as carried
on by J. F. Hixon & Cos., of Van Et
tenville, N. Y. American dyes are
represented by barberry root and by
flavina, the manufacture of which is
illustrated by specimens contributed
by the Boston Dyewood and Chemical
Company.
Following this are the products re
sulting from the dry distillation of
wood, that is, heating wood in closed
retorts with exclusion of air. Tnese
products are methyl alcohol or wood
spirit, pyroligneous acid and crude ace
tates of lead, lime, iron and alumina.
The first is employed largely in the
manufacture of white lead paint; the
second in the manufacture of pure
acetic acid, and the last two tor mor
dants in the process of dyeing. Ac
companying this series is a plate show
ing the application of these mordants
to the dyeing of cotton goods. Under
this head of dry distillation there are
also the products obtained from pine,
viz., tar, turpentine, pitch, and rosin of
different grades, the manufacture of
which constitutes such an important
industry u£ the Carolinas.
The next case contains a series of
specimens i'lustrating the production
of vegetable oils. In this branch of
manufacture two methods are employed,
that of expression and that of fractional
distillation. By the first method castor
oil, linseed oil and cotton seed oil are
obtained. They are represented by
specimens of the seeds, the pomace,
raw and refined oils, the cake from the
press, and the cake ground for cattle
food and for fertilizers. By the second
method arc obtained principally the
essential oils employed for the manu
facture of flavoring materials and per
fumes. Of these essential oils there
are eighteen manufactured from native
products, a fact not generally known.
All these essential oils are shown.
The next subject for study, is the
preservation of fruits and vegetables.
The different methods employed for
this purpose are hermetically sealing,
desiccation, and packing in sugar and
syrup. The first, method consists of
packing fresh fruits in glass aud tin,
with exclusion of air, and is represent
ed by specimens of canned goods, from
various sources. The second is illus
trated by specimens dried by the pro
cesses of Alden and others, and the
third, by a series of fruits, prepared by
Gordon & Diftvorth, of New York.
In another section, are the more
valuable vegetable products of tlio
American Materia Medica, with their
active proximate principles, separated
in the crystaline form, the oil or t.he
rosin, as the case may be.
The products employed in, and re
sulting from, the muiimiacture of but
ter and cheese, occupy a position in
another case, and form an interesting
and instructive series. They consist
of milk, cream, butter, salt, rennet,
curds, and different grades of cheese,
manufactured in New York, and the
Now England States.
The specimens of vegetable products
are all arranged in the cases, with re
ference to that stage of the process of
mauufactnre from which they were
taken, in such a manner as to indicate
cleariy the changes through which the
raw material must pass, to render it fit
for market and consumption.
The Natural History Department
aud Economic Museum, comprises,
first, the science of entomology. This
collection is made and classified rather
for the purpose of denoting the inju
rious, beneficial and edible insects of
the United States, than as a complete
scientific museum. The insects are ar
ranged, therefore, according to the
crop destroyed, and include the egg,
larva, and perfect insect of the well
known potato bug ( Dorgpliora Dixilin
eata,) aud all other insects deleterious
to the potato, are shown in the same
, way.
Next are those affecting cotton,
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST.
com, and all staple crops, land these
are followed by insects affecting for
est trees, and those available for food.
The latter are mostly of the grass
hopper tribe, and their appearance is
by no means tempting.
Next in order, are the insects de
stroying household property, and de
predating on the larder.
All the above are contained in twen
ty-four small cases, and in conrection
with this display are some three hun
dred plates, illustrative of the pi.acipal
injurious and beneficial insects of the
United States, and the direction of
their appetites, engraved on steel, by
Prof. Glover, the Entomologist of the
Department. There are about 7,000
figures in these engravings, which are
all coloied, true to nature.
Avery large collection of birds fol
lows, and has been made and classified
with the same avowed object as the
entomological specimens, viz : To de
note to the farmer and agriculturist,
the chief beneficial and injurious
birds of this country.
The qualities or grades are shown
by the ends of the perches. If these
are painted all white, then the bird is
wholly beneficial; and the degrees of
injury are shown by painting the ends
of the perch a quarter, half or wholly
black, as the case may be. Accompa
nying nearly every bird is a small box,
containing the contents of the stom
achs, taken at different seasons of the
year, to verify this fact.
There is a most complete and well
arranged display of domestic poultry,
chiefly of American origin. The pure
breeds are shown true to name, s6 that
the farmer may easily distinguish
their peculiar beauty and compare
them with his own.
Next, are domesticated ducks, tur
keys, guinea fowls, etc., with Isome
specimens of food ducks, and about
thirty specimens, exhibiting the crosses
between the common domesticated
duck, and the wild mallards. Tie up
per part of the case contains a few of
the fancy breeds of pigeons.
The fruit display is very large, and,
when closely studied, very interesting.
There are about 3,000 specimens of
apples, cast in plaster from the fruit
itself, to insure accuracy in size and
shape, and painted in oil.
Included are specimens of the fa
mous “Gloria Mundi,” weighing 29
ounces, placed for comparison, side by
side with the small Alaska apples,
which are no larger than cherry stones,
and in appearance, resemble them
closely. The apples are arranged—
some of the same sort from each
State —to show (he various effects of
climate and temperature.
For instance, the “Baldwin" is small
er when grown in the New England
States, yet, that section is undoubtedly
its true home, a point by
the fact, that when pUnted ju the
West, it becomes larger, more spongy,
subject to the bitter rot and of poorer
quality generally. Included in this
section are pears, plums, and collec
tions of the principal vegetables, such
as watermelons, beets, etc., arranged
and classed in similar order.
In the grain section, there are
about 800 samples of American grain,
collected from every State in the
Uuion, and arranged in this order:
The object of this collection is also to
show the difference between the same
varieties in distinct parts of the coun
try.
There are 125 samples of maize, or
Indian corn, amongst which are speci
men cars, only three inches long,
grown by Indians in Arizona, in com
parison to which there is an ear from
New York, measuring seventeen inch
es in length. In this collection are,
also, about 100 samples of the manu
factures from corn, wheat, and other
cereals.
Next in point of interest is a collec
tion of American leaf tobacco —one
hundred samples in all-I—representing
about fifteen States, trhe samples
were contributed by the planters, and
show the principle varieties grown in
this country, from a very poor quali
ty to some worth §4 a pound. This is
supplemented by about fifty samples
of diffeieut kinds of manufactured to
bacco, side by side with tile leaf from
v.nicii they are made.
in the direction of fibres, there is a
collection of American wools, repre
senting the principal varieties grown in
this country, troui the finest Merino
fleece, about once inch long, to sam
ples of the Cotswold, one foot m
length. Below these are samples of
the wool in every stage of manufac
ture, from raw material to Brussels
and Wilton carpets, aud shawls,
stockings, etc.
Next come to the cottons, of which
there are apout 200 samples, illustrat
ing the manufacture of that article.
W ith these are arranged specimens of
jute, flax and hemp, and a collection of
miscellaneous fibres, many of which,
collected in the West, are only inter
esting as showing the varied resources
of our country.
Adjoining the fibres, is a very inter
esting collection of paper, showing it
from the raw material, through all the
stages of manufacture, from straw,
bogus manilla, scrap manilla, and rope
manilla, to straw, manilla, book col
ored, flat and American linen papers.
Other samples of papers that have
been experimented with, are also
shown, and to complete the collection,
a specimen of paper made by wasps.
It is really a nest, but from first to last
it is made in the same way as we make
our paper by machinery—another illus-
tration of the truth that there is noth
ing new under the sun.
Under the head of microscopy, there
are about 400 frames, containing illus
trations of various fungi, including
mushroome, edible and poisonous, and
fungous diseases of agricultural pro
ducts, fruits, etc., and others destruc
tive to the plant life.
In the botanical section is a collec
tion of American forest trees from all
parts of the country, classified in the
same way as the fruits, to show how
the same trees thrive in different lati
tudes. The specimens are each about
two feet long, arranged on low shelves
in two lines. Above are frames con
taining pressed leaves and flora of each
specimen b low. In addition, there is
a small stand of sub-tropical trees of
the United States, including the pal
metto and others of the same class.
The Statistical Division of the De
partment contains a chart showing the
corn production for a given number of
years ; engravings of the Agricultural
Colleges in the United States, engrav
ings of the famous breeds of cattle and
horses of the United States, and inter
esting charts showing the sugar supply.
Each chart is of great interest to the
student; for instance, the sugar chart
shows in a way which figures would
fail to describe, the supply of sugar
from Louisiana. In 1861, the first year
of the war, that State alone supplied
one-half of all the sugar consumed in
this country, but in 1862 she supplied
nothing. Since then, little by little,
the supply has increased, but even now,
Louisiana only supplies one-tenth part
