OUR MARKETS.
One of the chief facts brought
out by the forced plitical discus
sion of the tariff issues, during the
last campaign was the one that our
home market was the most profit
able, best and surest market we
had to depend upod. Every sub
sequent review of the situation has
only more fully demonstrated that
fact.
More especial'y is this the case
with our agricultural products, as
the foreign market are being more
and more occupied by foreign coun
tries. These facts must be taken
into consideration by our agricul
turists and there future plans made
in view of them, gauging their
varied productions to meet the
demands of the market. Especi
ally is this the case in this section
where wheat has been the crop.
Statistics upon this subject bear
useful business. The annual re
port of the Chief of the Bureau of
Statistics on the foreign commerce
of the United States for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1889, shows
that while in the matter of imports
we purchased more in the past
3-ear tnan ever before, the value of
all imports for the year being $743,
131,652, we have not kept up with
some preceding years in exjoits,
the total exports for the year
amounting to $742,401,305. The
. years in which this "as exceeded
were 1&S0, with $J5,:)8,658 ; 1881,
with $902,:;77,340; 18S2, with
$750,542,275, and ls8:5, with $823,-'
839,402, whilethe exports of 1885
reached $742,1S9.755, or within
about $300,000 of the exports for
1SS9. Tiie decline in exports dur
ing the last half of the decade just
closed was almost wl oily in the
products of agriculture, our exports
of manufactures never being so
great as last year. Beginning with
1878 our agricultural exports ex
ceeded those of last year, the total
for the former year reaching $530,
192.S73. In 1879 the agricultural
exports reached $540,576,703; in
18S0, $093,961,091; in 1881, $730,
394,943; in 1882, $552,219,819; in
1883, $019,209,449, and in 1884,
$536,315,318. In 1885 they fell to
$530,172,906, or about $2,000,000
below last year, since which they
have yaried between $484,954,595
in 18S6 and $532,141,490 in 1889.
The chief decline has been in
breadstuff and meat products, the
exports in the former having fallen
from $2S8,036,835 in 18S0 to $123,-
876,661 in 1889, and in the latter
from $150,809,840 in 1881 to $104,
122,444 in 1889. This does not in
dicate that the wcrld in using less
breadstuff than formerly, but that
other countries are supplying them.
In 1880. the year of the highest
wheat export from the United
States, the total amount of wheat
sold by all exporting countries was
209,987,072 bushels, of tthich the
United States exported 144,483,907
bushels, cr 09.13 per cent. The
wheat export from all countries last
year was 221,713,923 bushels, or
nearly 12.000,000,000 bushels more!
than in 1SS0, of which the I'n'ted !
States exported but -19,53 1, 915 1

::Jit
however, of the falling off in the
exports of American wheat, the
United States continue to produce
a oout one-fourth of all the wheat
produced in the world, the rapidly
growing population consuming
what the rest of the world does not
taken. Whether ve can long
maintain this proportion of the
world's wheat product against the
expansion of the wheat-trowing
areas in British India, Australia,
and the Argentine Republic re
mains to be seen. The cotton and
tobacco exports during the decade
just closed have been very uniform
cotton exports reaching high-water
mark in 1881, with a value of $247,
095,746. They reached the lowest
point in the decade in 1884, with a
value of $197,015,204, and rose
again in 1889 to $237,775,270.
Tobacco began the decade with ex
ports amounting to $16,379,107 in
1880, reached the highest point in
1886 with $27,158,457, falling again
last year to $18,901 ,008.
Changes take place n the
methods in all the avenues of life.
As new theories are put into prac
tice and their feasibility proven by
the test of actual woik, new opera
tions, and new appliances must of
course be brought into use. The
wor'd moves and the people must
keep up with the procession. In
agricultural matters it is said that
there are hints that a revolution is
about to come in agriculture
through the discovery that the free
nitrogen of the atmosphere is ab
sorbed and "fixed" by the soil
itself under suitable conditions.
Plants need phosphoric acid, pot
ash, and nitrogen. The first two
are in reach, but the third has been
supposed to be elusive. It has
been the general teaching that the
nitrogen of the atmosphere plays
no part in vegetation. Now M.
Berthelot and others affirm that it
does. Thev have demonstrated,
they say, that the free nitrogen of
the atmosphere is "fixed" and
made available as a fertilizer "by
the co-operation of mineral matter
and of living organisms in the
soil." The fact explains, it is said
why it is (1) that spade husbandry
is much more productive than
plowing ; (2) that land can be en
riched by bimply plowing under its
own product, and (3) the summer
fallowing, with frequent stirring,
actually enriches the soil." Pul
verization of the soil increases, it
seems, its capacity to absorb nitro
gen. The method of centrifugal
tillage now being developed in the
West supplies, it is claimed, an
ideal modus operandi for the new
fertilization. It pulverizes the soil
and aerates it in the manipulation,
and then confines a mass of air in
its midst for the slower process of
absorption and digestion by earth
and plants.
