Fourth : — While the improvements of lands has gone on rapidly the farms have been growing steadily smaller, the improved lands in farms havipg fallen off from 1860 to '80, 11 percent., while the unimproved land on farms diminished 47 per cent.
Fifth ; — And to this 1 call your particular attention in connect- ion with this so-called over-production. The Statistician of the Department of Agriculture in a lecent report after an extended investigation of the subject of Agriculture Exports, says :
... "It appears that the proportion of all agricultural products exported is about 10 per cent., or, exclusive of cotton and tobacco, 5 per cent.'' 6 Now of our agricultural products exported there are four only which constitute nearly 93 per cent, of the total value of exports, viz,, Corn, Wheat, Meats and Cotton, but even including these, we consume in this country 90 per cent, of the products of our agri- culture.
Sixth : — I have taken the Statistics of Production of our leading crops during the years 1866 to 1886 both inclusive, and, dividing this into three periods of seven years each, I find that during the second period the total crop production increased practically the same upon the average with the increase in acreage devoted to these crops over the acreage and yield of the first period.
