AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS OF UTAH. 



It is with no ordinary pleasure that we present the following tables of the 

 agricultural statistics of this Territory. Our correspondents there have ever 

 been prompt and painstaking, and have interested us in the progress of an agri- 

 culture in the midst of the Rocky mountains, and so different from that of the 

 Atlantic States. What will much interest all is the table relative to irrigation. 

 We have here an expenditure of ^1,766,939 to irrigate 153,949 acres, being 

 $11 50 per acre. Washington county, which is the most southern one in Utah, 

 lying between the 37th and 38th degrees of latitude, raised last year 384 acres 

 of cotton and 92 acres of grapes, yielding 5,200 pounds of grapes. The energy 

 that is accomplishing so much is worthy of all commendation.
