AGRICULTURE.
What the Agricultural Bureau
Knows About It.
Washington, April 2.—Among tho sta
tistical investigations reported in tho cur-
rout monthly of the Department of Agri
culture, are tho following: Au inquiry
concerning the most profitable crop iu
ouch State aud section of a Stute, its rela
tive cost and profit in comparison with
other crops, showing tho effect of soil,
climate aud other circumstancos ; in pop
ularizing tho encouragement of local
specialties ; the tendency of agricultural
improvement indicating progressive and
non-progressive localities, and illustrat
ing tho prevalent activity of tho rural
mind. Tho main points of this progress
relate to the economy and efficiency
of labor, systematic and rational process
for its employment and advanced skill iu
its direction.

Another series of returns from about
throe hundred cotton growing comities
relate to tho quantity of the present cot
ton crop, local causes of injury and tho
comparative prominence of oaob, espe
cially those duo to insect ravogoa,showing
the progross of tho catorpillor, areas vis
ited, aud tho character of injury; with
other collections of facts bearing upon
tho crop.
tobacco.
Another' investigation may he consid
ered a virtual census of a lurgo portion of
the tobacco area, being a direct estimate,
with the aid of County Assessors, of tho
number of pounds, number of acres, aud
value iu planters' hands iu 140 counties,
which aggregate a production of 2IS,
000,000 pounds ou 320,000 ncros. Tho
same oouutios, in 1800, returned through
tho census 170,000,000. Tho same ratio
for unreported areas would make tho to
tal production 370,000,000.
Tho apparent iucroaso is forty-one per
cent., but tho real differeuco is vory little.
Tho census does not return tho full
amount.

Gapt. A. PUillipH, HUporintomlonl of the
Neokuk Northern Lino packolH, ban
just ruturued from a huKiucss viHit up
tlm river to Kookult, nnd he Klaltm lhat
tho wheat fields aro “a night to ho Heou."
Evory whore along tho rivor, und from
forty to fifty miios in tho iutorior which
ho vihitud in his progroHH, tho ourlh wan
a sea of tho hrilliunt groon of tho wheat
with which it was howii. Gapt. Phillipa
hIhtvs nlao that it was represented lhat
tboro wus a largo increase of acreage iu
wheal, and this is in accord with reports
from ovury grain growing suction of Ihu
West. Tho wiutor bus boon so louionl
that thu farmois evuu N'orih aro
making Imay preparations for thoir oats
nnd corn planting, and it is bnlievod that
with propitious weather those crops will
bo largely sown. N\ nh tho blessing of a
propitious season what a breadstuff pro
duct may bo looked for ! --“a consumma
tion devoutly to bo wished." In this in-
orenfte of acreage in w boat,*with no more
than a usual European demand, and noth
ing in tho political or productive coutli
lion of tho world to inspiro hope of
extraordinary demand for broadstuffs.and
consequently enhance priced, the ques
tion is what Iihh inspire 1 farmers to this
enthusiastic interest in whoat ruining, and
when mostly it is regarded as tbo poorest
paying crop they can labor on, and which
is subject to morn easily damaging vie
situdes of wouthor than uny other crop.
—The Richmond (Kentuckyj Register
says : “If all the returned Confederates
should do as well as Gen. John D. 11
towards ^ populating the desolated South
it would he hut a short time until tho
places of those who were killed and those
who died of diseases during the wai
would ho filled by a new generation
From a private sourco wo learn that Gen
eral Hood has boon married just five
yuars, and ttmt lie is now tho happy fath
er of seven children. Gouaideriug his had
the i luck during many of tho scenes of the
are i l »tc war, we are inclined to think that tin
long lane has taken a turn, and that i'rov
idouco has smiled on him at lust."
