Newspaper Page TextA G RIO U LTURAL Xlio Food Supply of Larciic aud .1 inericu. Free thought aud free suffrage liavt ben strong magenta attracting popu lation to this country in large num bers ; but cheap corn may have boon n still more powerful attraction. Hun ger in a more potent motive than pa triotism. The country that receives nearly all of our exports of breadstuff has returned fifty-one per cent, of all tlio immigration wo have received in fifty-one years : Great lb itain Ims sont 3,826,010 of the total of 7,447,745. Os all tho nationalities represented in either continent, Great Britain is tho only one that habitually leeks abroad for any considerable portion of needed food supplies. Hussia and tho United States are tho only nations to bo depended upon for such supply.— Os tho 6,000 millions of bushels of co reals produced actually in this coun try aud iu Europe, mere than three thousand millions are grown in Bus sia and tho United States. About half that amount is tho usual product of liussiu ; apd this country, in 1870, pro duces more than 1,0)0 millions. Tho census of 1850 indicated a sap pily of nearly 37 bushels to each in habitant of this country ; that of 1860, 3!) bushels; tho large corn crop of 1870 will probably make the present supply 42 bushels ol cereals of all kinds. Tho ratio to population, as re ported at tho l'aris Exhibition, is for lvussia proper, 22.1 bushels ; for Prus sia. 10; for Franco, 18,0; for Austria, 15; for Groat Britain and Ireland, 11.9; while Sweden, Norway, Den mark, Holland, Belgium, and- Switz erland averagod 12.9 bushels ; and tho kingdoms of Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Greece scarcely averaged 10 bush els. The average for Europo is 16 bushels. Our ratio to population is therefore 150 per oent, greater than that of Europe. This moans all the difforenco betwoen small loaves of coarse bread and the largest abun dance ; between thin sonps aud a small joint on holidays on ono hand and dai ly roast boef on the other ; for tho lar ger portion of tiro cereal supplies of all countries are fed to farm animals, making, with tho aid of roots and grasses, tho meat supply. Tho ratio of wheat to population in Europe is 4.5 bushels to each inhabi tant ; and the only countrios exceed ing that average are Kussia (7.1 bush els), France (/ .G), and tho Danubian Principalities (11), while in Great Brit ain tho ratio is 3.7 hushols. The av erage for a scries of years iu this coun try may bo placed at 5.5 bushels. Iu tho relative proportion of differ ent grains the influence of climate and soil can bo seon as well as the offoet of systematic rotation in agriculture, aud possibly tho diotic habits of tho noo plo. Maize, constituting two-thirds of the bulk of our cereals, contributes but six per cent, to those of Europo, tho countries yielding it being namod in tho following order: Austria, tho DanVibian Principalities, Italy, Kussia. Spain, European Turkey, Franco, Por tugal. All Europe produces little more than the State of lliinois in 1870. Prussia produces four bushels of rye to ono of wheat; Russia supplies near ly half tho barley of Europe and one third of tho outs ; tho leading cereals of Norway and Sweden aro oats and ■wheat, the lowest on tho list. Russia with Finland and Poland, having a population of 68 millions pro - duces fiom 400 to 500 millions of bush tds of wheat; Franco, fiotu 275 to 325 millions; Prussia, 75 to 100 millions; Great Britain, an average of 110 mil lions ; all Europo together, about 1,300 millions. The yield in the Uni ted States has rangod for ten years from 170 to 260 millions. Thu question of abundant bread stuffs is ono of' life and death to each nationality. It is not only tlio “staff of iife,” but that staff must bo one’s own, and not another’s. Anothor na tion’s bread i3 a poor depondence at best in a period of famine. It will bo 6oon by reference to the commorco of those nations that only one of them has much to buy, and but two havo much to sell, and that the portion ex ported by tho two boars an insignifi cant proportion to that retaiuod for home consumption. Let us seo how insignificant it is in tho Yaso of this country : Our production of all coreals has ranged, in round numbers, from 900 to 1,600 millions of bushels du ring the past twenty years ; it has cer tainly averagod 1,200 millions. Our .exports of wheat, both in grain and Hour, havo averaged but 15,602,329 bushels per annum for forty-three years, up to 1868 inclusive, although wo sont abroad, on an average, 27,- 358,574 bushels annually during the eightaen years from 1851 to 1868. Tho corn exports havo been about one per cent, of the crop during the past fifta years. In eighteen years, from 1851 to 1868 inclusive, the total amount exported, both as corn and meal, was 161,458,516 bushels, or 8,- 909,942 per aunuin. Thus we have nn average of 36,328,900 bushols of coreals exported during a period in which the production was 1,200 mil lion bushels per annum ; showing that we havo consumod at home ninoty »oven per oout., and sent abroad throe por cent. And Russia has consumed her own breadstuffe very much in the same proportion. A fino commentary might be drawn from these facta upon tho insanity of deranging crop rotations and disturb ing the balance of production in the ▼ain hope of making the fortune of the country by supplying tho nations of the world with wheat and flour cheaper than they can do it them selves A people will come very near starving before they will go five thous and miles for their bread. Tho rulorg of Kurojte understand this, and” hence permits are required to grow tobacco and„othor products not strictly odiblo, < and often refused lest the acreage in cereals should bo reduced below the area necessary for the home supply of bread. Let us, then, produco an abundance of corn and grain for man and beast, and a little surplus to send abroad in case of foreign tamino, as a gift on some occasion of diro necessi ty, while in rases of less urgency sat isfy our Yankee thrift and gratifying our huinuuo impulses iu ouo aud tho same shipment. Few of us realize tho full produc tive capacity of this country, and tho extent of its life sustaining power. England can not compare iu natural fertility of soil with Illinois, yet the Paririo States, when peopled to _ the extent of twonty-ono and half millions will have thirty-two and a half mil lions of acres for their tillage, and Texas, with a population of like den sity, would number ninety-five mil ions. Nor ri England a wheat field altogether, though furnishing sixty per cent, of the wheat required lor her own people; on tho contrary, loss than three and a half millions comprises her wheat acreage, or little more tliau ten per cent, of her area, and all her cereals occupy hut twenty-two per cent., while her entire ncroage under crops, including grass and permanent pasture, aggregates twenty-three mil lions of acres, or seventy per cont. of her area. i When t’ 9 great plains of the North west shall bo called into requisition for tho food supply ; when the South shall cease to be the wilderness that it is, a vast forest with little clearings h re and there white with cotton; when irrigation shall fertilize tiro mountain slopes and valleys of tho territories ; and when the Pacific coast shall realize its wonderful capabilities, for production ; then a population can bo subsisted here to which the present can compare only as an infant colony to a nation. When that time shall como, when the yhll per aero will be doubled by generous and system atic culture, and will approximate, if not surpass, tho English yiold ot 28 to 82 bushels per aero. Tho production of 1870 in the Uni tod Btates has been highly satisfacto ry ; munificent in corn for meat sup ; plios, and in fruits of most varieties ; prodigal in cotton for tlio clothing of tho million ; abundant in wheat and most of tho small grains ; modorato in hay, aud roots, aud garden vegetables. Tho total probuct of corn should ex ceed 1,100 millions of bushels, aud tho yield of wheat como up to 220 millions, mid tho wholo list of corals must figure an aggregate of 1,600 millions. Tho cereal products of Great Britainn tor tho year havo boon estimated at 365 millions, of which wheat is placed at IIS millions, at the rato of 32 bushels per acre. Tho area cultivated in this country has been nearly fivo limes as largo, and tho rate of yeild not much exceeding 12 bushels per acre. Such a yield is a libel upon our soil, but it can not bo avoided whore lands aro so choap that one year's crop will more than pay for tho land on which it grows, aud tho poor settlor is com pelled to transmute rich but cheap soil j into available capital w ith tho least possible labor. Tho wheat growers of tho British colonies act much upon tho same principle in similar circum stances, with a liko reduction of yield. Asa present resource, in tho primitive efforts of pioneers, it gives tho poor but industrious beginner a start on tlio road to competence and wealth in soil culture.; but there is no excuse for such practice in tho class of thorough-bred farmers of tho present era, whose numbers, alas ! are as yot lew. Tho results of the experience) of that sow are already largely increasing profits and enlarging production, and will continue to leaven tho entire lump of American agriculture.— I‘hrcnological Journal. Cotton—lts First Culture siml A correspondent of the Charleston Courier has collated tlio following in teresting fupts: Tho name (cotton) is derived from the Arabic word “Koton,” and is tho spontaneous production of all tho in ter-tropical regions. Os tho four great materials designed by I’rovidonco for human clothing, it is believed that nono wore assignod to Europo ; to Asia all were givsn. Cotton, flax, sheep and tho silk worm to Africa, and America cot ton and fllax —tho ono obviously do signod to be tho most useful. Cotton • was tho last to be generally diffused. For many centuries the growth and manufacture oi it was confined exclu sively to India. Spain was tho first na tion in Europo that cultivated tho cot ton plant, aud manufactured clothing from its produco ; both occurred in tho tenth century, The Moors (says De Maries) brought with them the hus bandry of rice and cotton, the mulberry tree and sugar cane. In the year 1050, the priests of “San Adveno” were au thorized to let their church lands for its cultivation. Iu 1792 the growth of cotton in this country, as a commer cial article, was unknown to Mr. Jay when nogotiatiog his treaty with Eng land, in which it was stipulated that no cotton should be imported from America. This is the reason why tho Senate refused to ratify the V2th arti cle of that treaty. In 1838 two dollars a pound was paid in Charleston for two bags of extra fine, grown on some of tho islands by a Mr. Wilson, the highest price over paid till during the recent war. It may, also, ba interesting to know that in 1830-31, forty years ago, up on a crop not exceeding one million of halos, the price of fair cotton was 9@9i cents. A. T. Steward, of New York, has recently ordered twelve hundred pairs of tho celebrated cotton blankets made in Columbus. “Well, Tom,” said a blacksmith to his apprentice, “you have been with mo now throe months, and havo seen all tho different points in our trade. I wish to givo you your choice of work for awhile.” “Thank’eo, sir.” “Well, now, what part of the business do you liko best,?” “Shuttin 1 up shop andjgoiu to dinner, sir.” ,v/: jp rti)i •»:h vis f..v t:.rrs.
