WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The Secretary
OF Agriculture has presented bis annual
report to the President. By comparing
prices at Chicago for October 10, 1900,
and OF 1883, he shows marked increase
in the values OF agricultural products,
especially cereals. IS
Tho Secretary asserts that without
ignoring the elIectu Of natural causes in
enhancing values 1t Is evident that the
economic legislation OF tho last session OF
Congress- has directly benefited the
farmers; the improved value OF cereals,
rs hc believes, being largely due to the
silver legislation.
He declares that not eipgle case OF
contagious pleuro pneumonia has beon
alleged to exist among American cattle
shipped to British ports since March
last and strongly recommends an in.
spoction law still moro comprehensive
for all animals slaughtered for inter.
State or foreign trade. E,-g.
The outlook for n home industry is
considered favorable. Analysis OF beets
grown in various States indicate high
percent OF sugar.
Tho Secretary announces the eHtab-
lishment OF three natural sugar expert
ment stations, devoted one each to cane,
sorghum and beet sugar.
In the Bureau OF Animal Industry ar
raugements have been perfected for
dairy revision.
The production OF raw silk as an in
degenous industry is referred to in not
very encouraging terms.
Encouraging words are spoken with
reference to flax culture, Secretary Rusk |
believing that the recent changes in the
tariff on linens will se.ve 10 encourage
the manufacture OF home grown flax.
Reference is made to tho forthcoming
transfer Of the Weather Bureau to the
Department OF Agriculture with declar-
alton OF the Secretary's desire to widen
the present scope OF the bureau 60 az to |
increase its benefits to agriculture.
In concluding his report, he says: "a
careful review OF the events OF the past
year and general survey OF the agricul-
tural field to-day, betoken marked i'm.
proyement in the condition OF our
agriculturalists aud promise we'll for
their future welI.being."
ne euds by declaring that he looks
forward with confidence to the time

well as in the magnitude OF its enter.
prise, the agriculture OF the United
States shall not only lead all other in
