PRINCE ALEXIS—HIS RECEPTTION THE DATE OF THE CRUCIFIXION.
AT NEW YORK.
The New York Price Current says the
people of the Atlantic States have a much
more imperfect idea of the wealth and re­
sources of Oregon than they have of Cal­
ifornia, albeit the two States lie side by
side. We gather from the census some
information of the products of Oregon,
which may prove interesting to business
men, and which show that the “web­
foot” State is not by any means the least
important of our agricultural common­
wealths. Here are statistics of produc-
produc­
tion, etc., of this State in 1869 :
Wheat............ bush. 1,750,000 $1,500,000
5,200
5,200
Rye...........................
270,000
Oats.......................... 500,000
200,000
Corn.......................... 200,000
200,000
Barley .................... 200,000
300,000
Potatoes......... ......... 500,000
75,(KM)
637,500
Hay................... tons
The returns show further that there
were in the State in 1869, 48,800 horses,
1,560 mules and asses, 79,312 milch cows,
101,960 sheep, 112,700 swine, and 140,500
young cattle. Total value of domestic
animals, $7,946,255. Cheese was produc­
ed the same year to the amount of 105,-
279 pounds, and butter 1,(MM),159 pounds.
Production has already been prodigiously
stimulated since 1869 by the building of
railroads and accessions to the popula­
tion. The continued operation of these
and other causes will multiply the pro­
ducts of agriculture in Oregon ten-fold
by the time the next decennial census is
taken.— Democratic Era.
