During the year ending September 80,

Office 1926 patents, 233 extensions, aud sos
certificates and registries of trademarks.
During the same time 1857 applications for
patents, including reissues and designs, have
been received, and S,100 caveats filed. The
fees received during the same period
amounted to sos, 954.S6, and the total eS.
pcnditures to $623, 553.30, making the net
receipts over the expenditures 81, 400.96-
Since 1886 100000 applications for patents
have been filed and about $4,000 patents
issued.
The, Office is being conducted under the
same laws and general organization as We're
adopted at its original inauguration, when

AGRICULTURE.

The report of the Commissioner of Agri-
culture gives ayery full and interesting ac-
count of the several divisions of that Depart
ment-the horticultural, agricultural, Stats
teal, chronological, and chemic;tl-and the
benefits conferred by each upon the agricul-
tural interests of the country. The whole
report is complete history in detail of the
workings of that Department in all its
branches, showing the manner in which the
farmer, merchant, aud miner is informed and
the extent to which he is aided in his pur-
suit. The Commissioner makes one recon-
mendatioD, that measures be taken by Con-
gress to protect and induce the planting, Of
forests, and suggests that no part of the pub
lie lands should be disposed of without the
condition that one-tenth of. it be reserved in
timber where it exists. and where it does
not exist inducements should be offered for
planting it. - ~ 4.,f1 aF4 ~ .aser
