Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fourteenth Annual Report of the Indiana State Board of Agriculture, 1872: Including the Report of Prof. E. T. Cox, State Geologist, for 1871 and 1872 In accordance with the requirements of the act of the General Assembly, creating the Indiana State Board of Agriculture, we have the honor to herewith transmit the Fourteenth Annual Report of the Board, containing their proceedings for the year; reports from the county and district societies; essays on useful and interesting matters pertaining to industrial pursuits together with brief reports of the proceedings of the Swine and Short-horn Cattle Breeders' Conventions, which have been held in Indianapolis during the present year. It is to be regretted that means are wanting by which to procure statistical information concerning the agricultural and mechanical products of the State, and we would recom mend that a law be passed requiring assessors to collect information relative to matters of this nature. We have included in the report, the statistics relative to the produc tions of agriculture of this State, taken from the United States Census Report for 1870, and an estimate of the princi pal agricultural products for the years 1871 and 1872, selected from the report of the Department of Agriculture. We take pleasure in acknowledging the courtesy of the Commissioner of Agriculture in sending us monthly reports of that department from which the above is taken.
