AlilllCI l.i'l It AL GOSSIP. Tho reclamation of arid lands, which was a prominent feature of food-producing' opera tions In India. Chlua mid Egypt many centuries ngo, Is now receiving more at tention from the United Stntes government than ever befote. Doth houses of congrera have strong committees on Irrigation. The olllcets of tho gcloglenl survey nre making extended Investigation In Irrigable districts. comparing tho vnlttes of different methods ot Irrigation and tho utilities of different t-otirees of water supply. Tho census oflho Is supplementing these efforts of tho govern ment by mnklng a census of Irrigation wells, dams, reservoirs, springs, raunls and dltchra nnd tho cost and character thereof, oi water rights, stiles and rates; of the acreage, quantity and valuo of Irrigated crops and of unclaimed but Irrigable land areas. According to the Grocery World the pickle, crop Is short and prlcea $1.60 to $2 higher than last )tir. Conservative estimate placo It at 50 per cent of last year, mnklng It tho smallest crop In twenty years. Pickle Jobbers will bo paying S per barrel of 1,200 pickles, which mentis another dollar tidvnnre. Last yenr tit tills time tho price was $6. nnd a llttlo later $3. Still tho present price Is reasonable, compared with sotnii previous years. Last yenr the retailer paid $S, and a few years before $3. The cause of crop shortage Is a peculiar blight, for which as yet the scientists havo found no remedy. An Illustration of agricultural siic'imii under disadvantages Is related h an English paper, which says Hint an Intelligent Irish farmer has discovered that by plant Ing onions and potatoes in tho taine Held In nltevtiato rows tho onions become eo strong Hint they bring tears, to tho ccs of tho potato In such volume that the roots aie kept moist, and a big crop Is raised In splto of tho drouth. Montana boasts of the second largest apple orchard In the United States, It Ii the property of Marcus Daly, and contains 565.000 trees, being part of tho fatuous Bitter Hoot stock farm. Another big orchard, I owned by the Bitter Root Orchard com pany, containing 49.000 apples trees in one solid block. There nro many orchards In western Montana containing frcan ,000 to 10,000 trees. For 1899 the world's corn crop Is 2,611, 000,000 bushels, ot which the United State furnishes 2,200,000,000$ bushels: Austria Hungary furnishes 08,000,000 bushels, a serious fnlllng off from the 153,000,000 bush els of last year. Argentina comes next, with 72.000,000 bushels; then conies Italy with 68,000,000 htuihela. Tho crop In about 111,000.000 bushels moro than tho aVerags crop of tho last four years. Holders of mules In tho bOtithwcst nro reaping a harvest ft otn England's eagerness to provide themselves with tho American animal, vvhcwo musical notes ore long among the familiar features nf life In tho American army, says the Corn Belt. An order for 2,400 mules raised tho price, and It Is ex picteil that 9,000 or 10,000 will bo needed, na they certainly will bo If tho disease which has broken out lu South Africa, Bhould spread. Tho American niulo Is found to be superior to the Spanish or itnllan Importa tion. Minnesota HtutlstleUns furnish tho follow ing facta regarding poultry nnd egg ship n cuts from that state during the yenr 1899; Eighteen hundred wa of eggs wero shipped out ot tho Btato, averaging 100 cases to tho car. making 720.000 cases, 21,600.000 eggs, averaging 12 cents per doien, bringing Into tho state $2,692,000. In dressed poultry, :17." cars wero nhlppcd from tho stnte, averaging 30,000 pounds per car, making a total of 11.250.000 pounds, which fetched an average ot 8 cents per pound, amounting to the sum ot $900,000, which, lidded to the egg ship ments, inailo n grand total of (3,192,000, In tho year Just closed Nebraska hroku l'u corn-producing record. Tho corn crop of 1899 exceeded tho record ot the best previous year by 11,217,210 bushels, tin footing showing tho enormous total of 244,. 125,093 bushels. Vrovlous to 1899 tho great, eat corn year was 1897. Last year the aver age yield per aero was 31.5 bushels. Tho Kar.ja corn crop, with ono exception, wan the largest yet ptodtieed In the elate, being; 22i.. 183,432 bushels. The only previous year which surpassed these figures was 1899, when tho yield was 273.8S8.32t bushels, but last year's crop rxceedod In valuo any preceding crop by $1,131,627. Tim Dost (111 Daily Globo has this tu say on heot Htiger: It Is said on what should ho excellent authority thnt fully two-thirds of the world's supply ot sugar now conies from the beet. Certain it In that tho production of thli no veeslty Is no longer conllnod to tropic regions, hut Is found prolltnhlo by dwellers In toinpornto zones, notably tin we of our own continent. "Snnio Idea of tho development of the beet liugar industry ot tho world may bo gained by the comparison of btutlstlcs regarding this product. Ilefuro the '70'n It Is doubtful whether tho production of the wholn world lu this lino rcarhcl,000,000 Ions yearly. For tho present season tho beet Migar out put la estimated nt 6,510.000 tons figures which put tho statistics ot tho yield ot ciuie sugar, unco ho Important, qultu In the uhade. "Clearly, sugar ,1s likely to havo a Keen Interest, for people particularly American people tor many a loug year to tome."
