The office Is purely honorary and is

countries have their agricultural bu.
reaus or other offices, where informa-
tlon IS sought and disseminated
touching the soil, crops, and cultiva-
uon. And all that is needed is to
brlng these meteorological, Offices,
implements, and means together in a
spirit of friendly concert.
In 1888 | obtained leave to invite
the powers Of Europe to send their
! men of science and leading meteoro-
loglsts to me in conference at Brus-
sells, that we might there take coun-
sci together and devise uniform of
cooperation and research at sea. The
invitation was promptly accepted
The conference met, aplan was agreed
upon, and Immediately ships of all
Kinds were, without the cost of one
cent, converted into floating observa-
tories. Thus, alone, and at an ex-
pensc not exceeding 81 600, if accu-
rately remember, got together the
conference of mete0rologistS at Brus-
sells, and brought under one compre-
hensive and cooperative plan of ply
slclal research more than two-thirds
of the earth's surface. Surely your,
government, backed by all the moral
weight and influence Of the country,
can bring the remainder under this
system, and by so doing confer upon
agriculture, commerce, and the in
dustrics of the country boon such as
they have never received-no, not
since you have Knocked or polling up
the Mississippi.
In order that you may fully under
stand the defect Of the present system
and fairly comprehend Sthe benefits
that are to be expected from the plan
proposed, let us see how the data are
now collected for
FORECASTING THE CROPS
in this country. One or more houses
in New York will issue circuIarlctters
from time to time telling ofthe prom
isc aud forecasting the yield of the
crops. This is done from data the
most scant, but from the best that is |
to be had. Some rely on themcrchants |
in the interior towns and cities for
their information; and some on news
paper reports; and some will send |
agents to ride over a few plantations |
taking tramp often miles, and |
from data thus collected the crops are
forecast. As rule, these aim at ac-
curacy, but we cannot forget that
there is the principle Of antagonism
between the factors who buy and for
ward, and the farmers who grow and
sell the crops. And fancy that gen
erally-not always, but frequently
the crop as it begins to come forward,
il over-estimated; and, as rule, these
errors in estimates are not detected
until the crop has left the hands Of
the producers and entered the chan
ncIs of commerce. The discovery is
then to late to do you any good. Per-
haPs | can bring this home to you
more clearly and closely. Let us see
some of the Ovcr-csLimates that have
been made in cotton during the las
generation. Here is a table which |
got from one Of the first authorities
in the land. The cotton crop after it
had all gone forward, and had been
delivered for shipment was found to
fall below the estimates in the follow
ing named years, the real crop Of
