Yet as to the amount of the products, New York produces prac- 
tically as much in 1900 as she did in 1850. This is true of oats 
and buckwheat, while in the case of corn and cattle the product 
of the State of New York in 1900 exceeded that of 1850, never- 
theless the difference in the relation of the agricultural produc- 
tions of the State of New York and the United States in the period 
mentioned is due almost entirely to the increased production in 
_ the United States. Thus it will be seen that New York has grown 
to be less and less of a factor in the cereal and meat markets owing 
to the great progress made by the country as a whole; that she 
has had to turn her attention in other directions in order to main- 
tain the position. which she should occupy among the states of the 
union, having practically 1/10 of the population. To-day New 
York stands first among the dairy states of the Union, as will be 
seen by the following table:

From every point of view New York ranks the leading dairy 
State. 
It stands second as a fruit producing State, California alone being 
ahead of her, as will be seen by the following table:
