Monthly Report Of The Department Of Agriculture For March And April 1870 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Monthly Report of the Department of Agriculture, for March and April, 1870 Alabama - This State is less extensively engaged in wheat-growing than Georgia. In most of the counties the business is almost unknown. The little that is sown looks well, with few exceptions; wheat is back ward on account of cold weather in Jefferson, poor in Lawrence County, but better than for many years in Perry; a good stand of small plants in St. Clair, and presenting a fair appearance in Butler, Clay, Etowah, Sumter, and Tallapoosa. Mississippi - Less than usual has been sown in Mississippi, and few counties regard it as one of their industries. In Neshoba the cr0p has an unpromising appearance, and in Carroll it looks worse than usual, while in Attala, De Soto, Kemper, Lafayette, Rankin, and Winston a fair appearance is presented. Louisiana produces scarcely wheat enough to permit a mention of its appearance. Arkansas - The cr0p generally looks well, where found at all. A greater breadth than usual was sown in Washington; a smaller area in Columbia. With some variety, a fair average is reported from most of the counties in which wheat is grown.
