Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Meridian, Mississippi, the Most Important Town in the State: One of the Greatest Railroad Centers in the Southwest; Its Advantages for All Kinds of Manufacturing After careful search for correct information in regard to the resources of Mississippi, from personal knowledge we accept the very able report of Mr. A. B. Hurt, Special Agent of the Department of agriculture, as accurate, and quote largely from his report as to climate, productions, resources, etc., of this State. Any information concerning Mississippi desired by parties visiting the World´s Exposition at New Orleans, La.. will be cheerfully given by Maj. S. A. Jonas, State Commissioner, or Maj.E. G. Wall, Immigration Agent, at Jackson, Miss., who will kindly furnish maps and pamphlets. Mississippi lies between the 31st and 35th parallels of north latitude. The Mississippi river forms its entire boundary on the west, Alabama on the east, Tennessee on the north and Louisiana and the Gulf of Mexico on the south. The extreme length of the State is 335 miles; extreme breadth, 190 miles. The area of the State is 50, 000 square miles. Climate And Temperature. "The climate of Mississippi is all that could be desired for agricultural purposes. It is a happy medium between the extremes of heat and cold. The winters are short, mild and pleasant; the summers are in the main devoid of the intense heat often felt in more northern latitudes. The summer heat is, indeed, more prolonged, but much less oppressive than farther north, owing to the proximity of the State to the Gulf and the prevalence of cool, refreshing winds blowing from that direction. The thermometer seldom reaches 100 in summer in any part of the State. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
