Wheat crop outlook and census projections from 1879 issue
The issue notes steady wheat acreage and generally good conditions despite local dryness. It quotes a wage example for mechanics and cites a Philadelphia Record claim that the 1880 census will show the United States as the most language-diverse nation, with a population near 50 million rising toward 100 million by century's end. It also outlines plans to begin the centennial census around June 1880 and projects the population center moving from Washington toward Indianapolis, then Cincinnati, and likely to the Mississippi by 1909.
