Secretary Mckeen sends out his Report
for the Year 1892.
Secretary B. Walker McKeen of the
Maine board Of agriculture, has just issued
his annual report for 1892. According to
this report Maine farming is making rapid
advances. At any rate it holds the cream
of all that is worth preserving in the liter
ature OF Maine farming. The proceedings
of the Maine board Of agriculture are
given concisely, and come straight down
to practical facts for Maine farmers and
Maine farmers wives and sons and daugh-
tiers.
few of the essays read at the different
meetings are published, and these are
practical snd for every day use After the
work Of the board at its different meetings
comes the report of the Maine cattle com
misstoneFs. They have cxterminated the
dreaded p,euro pneumonia in Maine, and
have done tin spite o: opposition from
the Massachusetts, commissioners.
More than l25 pages u the report are
devoted To the work Of the experiment
station at ocoGo, and tell about Prof.
Jordan's labors among plants aud animals.
lhls work is Of permanent value not MY
to Maine farmers, but to all farmers In all
parts Of the world. Prof Jordan and his
assistants asked the plants various ques-
lions by means of chemicals, and obtained
definite answers. Then by means Of differ
ent feeds asked questions Of animals and
let the weighing scales make answer.
Prof. Munson'S labors in cross-fertilizing
plants, aud Prof Haryey's new Eight upon
insects and weeds are both OF great value
to farmers
Following the report Of the experiment.
station come 1872 pages telling about the
Maine genealogical society aud what IL did
during the year. Lists Of premiums
awarded and Of the members Of the So
ctciy are given. After these come some
essays that are models in their way, telling

vegetable raiser and THE window gardener
