Washington, D. c.. Nov. 29.-The
Secretary of Agriculture has trans
mitted his eighth annual report to the
President.
In opening his report the secretary
enumerates some of the more impor-
tant features of the years work.
Among them are extensive cooperation
with agricultural stations; the taking
of preliminary steps to conduct feed
ing and breeding experiments; the war
waged against the cotton boil weevl
and against cattle mango; plans for
education of engineers in road build
ing; the production of a hardy orange,
a hybrid of the Florida orange and the
japanese trifoliata; valuable research
in successful shipping of fruit abroad;
the value of nitrogen-fixing bacteria;
successful introduction of plans suited
TO light rainfall areas; establishment
of pure food standards; the extension
of agricultural education in primary
and secondary schools; the extension of
instruction to our island possessions

leading universities the relations be-
tween them and the bureau at the
present time being more intimate and
the work done more important than at
any previous time. Several universe
ties have given ground for the erec-
ton of buildings, and others have plac-
ed at the disposal of the bureau.
without cost, quarters in their build
ings.
Wireless TeIegraphy.
The Department of Agriculture was
one of the first to take up through the
Weather Bureau systematic expert
mentation in wireless telegraphy. In
accordance, however, with the recon-
mendations of the board appointed to
consider the whole problem, expert
ments in this line have been disoon-
tinued by the bureau, being trans
ferred to the Navy Department. while
all meteorological work done hereto
fore by the Navy Department Will be
transferred to the Weather Bureau.
Tuberculosis in Cattle.
Experiments recently reported upon
by the Bureau of Animal Industry
show conclusively that it is an error
to conclude that cattle cannot be in
fected with human tuberculosis. The
Secretary urges the necessity of
rigid enforcement of the public regu-
lations looking to the control and
eradication of this disease In cattle.
The bureau distributed $4,000 doses of
in 1904. The blackleg vaccine
for cattle distributed by the bureau
continues to give satisfaction. During
the year 1000, 900 doses of this vaccine
were issued, and over 10000 persons
highly satisfactory results.
The number of animals that died after
was reduced to the very
low figure of O.44 per cent. of the num-
Der treated.
Cultural Work on Cotton.
Special work has been done on cot
ton with a view to bringing home to
farmers of Texas and Louisiana, es-
pecially in the boil weevil districts, the
of better methods of cult |
walton and the value of early matur- |
ing seed.
The Bureau of Plant Industry has
had the advantage of closest co-opera-
ton with the Texas Agricultural Col
lege and also with the Louisiana au-
thorities. AS a feature of the work

in the South diversification farms were
established at various places with a
view to showing the value and impor-
lance of diversified agriculture. The
business interests in the respective
communities gladly cooperate in this
matter with the bureau, so that they
involve but a trifiing expense to the
government. Thirty-two of these farms
have been or are about to be estab-
lished. Extensive work has been in
augurated in Texas with view to
breeding new types of cotton better
adapted to meet the conditions
brought about by the invasion of the
cotton boil weevil. Reference is made
to the discovery of the Guatamalan
ant by an officer of the bureau and
to the transfer of the study and dis
tribution of this ant to the Bureau of
entomology. Mention is also made of
an effort to combat the boil weevil by
producing a variety of cotton not sub
Ject to injury by this pest.
The Secretary believes il to be with
In the range of possibility that resist
ant varieties of cotton may be found in
tropical America or developed by Sc
lection. As feature of the work in
Texas special effort has been made to
obtain information as to the best meth

disease which has been very serious
the past season.
Combating Plant Diseases.
The Bureau of Plant Industry has
devoted much attention to the inves-
tigatlon of plant diseases, with a view
TO combating them successfully. Among
those enumerated in the Secretary
report as having received special at
tention during the past year are cram
Derry diseases, the 'little-peach" dis
ease, winter killing of fruit trees. and
the wilt disease of tobacco The sue

more marked last season than ever
before. Considera BILE quantities of the
seed of resistant and desirable plants
nave been retained and distributed, and
IN connection with this work the wilt
or the cowpea has also been studied
ana resistant types secured and dis
tributed.
Seed Distribution.
In the congressional seed distrihu-
ton constant effort is being made to-
wards the Improvement of methods of
securing and handling the seeds. Every
effort is made to improve the quality
OF the seed and to encourage home
seed growing. In the handling of this
enormous work which Congress puts
upon the department the necessity for
strict business methods has been fully
observed. The work of handling one
branch only of this problem involves
securing more than twenty-five car
loads of special seed and the testing
packing and mailing of this large
