nally, the reserves. have proved beneficial alike to the lumber in- dustry and to the timber consuming public. The available merchant able timber is not locked up for present use, but it will not be dis posed under short-sighted policy of utilization, which would leave a gap between the end of the present supply and oncoming of a second crop.
 Protection of the reserves from fire has been a most important task laid on the forest service. 1t is cause for congratulation that the
 loss by fire during the year was slight, even by comparison with
 that of 1905. This favorable effect is due to increased efficiency of the patrol system, combined with favor able climatic conditions. The inn portant fact was demonstrated that the forest service is able to substi- ute conservative for destructive use, while greatly increasing the use itself. The largest totals of sales were, in board feet, 73,000, 900 in South Dakota, Fl, 900, 900 in Wyoming and 53, ,000, 900 in Montana. In South Dakota a special reason exists for pressing the sale of timber with energy. The ravages of a bark bee tie threaten the annihilation of the entire forest, and only an extensive cutting of infested trees can the spread of this pest be checked and
 the damged timber utilized.

VALUE LEADING CROPS
Secretary Wilson's Annual Report - Valuable Forage Plants
 Reserve Policy.

Reserve Policy.
 In his annual r,port Secretary of Agriculture Wilson says of the value of ,ading crops:
 Corn remains by far the most valuable crop, estimated at eleven hundred million dollars. Next comes the cotton crop, which, in- cluding seed, should be worth to the growers nearly $640, 900, ,000. The value of hay, which is third in order approaches $500, 900, 900. Wheat, the fourth crop, may be worth $40, 1000, ,000 or $50, ,0O0, ,000; oats, $2OO, ,O0O. .O00; potatoes, $780, 0O0,000. Barley, with value of $65. 100000, shows a gain of 2l per cent in production in the past seven years.
 "The tobacco crop will be worth about $5,OOO,000. A remarkable development is that of the sugar beet, now the ninth crop in value; The production in 1906 is placed at 345, 1000 tons, valued at $30. .000, 900. Seven years ago, the value of this crop was $7,000.O0O. The value of all kinds of sugar. syrup and mo- lasses aggregates $75. 100000.
 In the bureau of plant industy. the leading features of the work of the past year have been the cooper ative demonstration work with farmers, fruit growers and others under the careful supervision of the department experts and the in- troduction of new crops of economic value. One of the most important achievements in this latter line is the discovery of the existence of the Siberian alfalfa, plano native on the dry steppes of Siberia, where the mercury freezes without snow, thus proving the ability of the plant to withstand, without protection, temperature of 40 degrees below zero.
 "This discovery may mark an epoch in the agriculture of the northwest prairie regions of the United States.
 Among other valuable plants introduced are a vigorous alfalfa from Arabia and the Tangier penin- sular. which has yielded as high as nine tons of green feed per acre. With view to increasing the mat ting industry, the departments ex- plorers have secured living plants of the best foreign varieties of rushes. Experiments in the pro- pagation of many seeds and plants introduced from foreign countries are being carried on at the plant.
 Great progress has been made in the practical application of na- tional forest reserve policy. In area, the reserves were increased during the year from 85, ,868, OPP to 6.999, 138 acres. In revenue, the reserves brought in $767 ,5S9.96, as against S60, ,142. .62 for the preceding year. One fiscal year of full con trol under the forest purchase act has established two facts, viz. that the reserves advance the present in- terests of the people of the West and that will speedily pay the cost of administering them. Through government control the interests of the future are guarded without sac rifcing those of the present. The reserves powerfully promote devel- opment. they work counter to the prosecution of no industry and re- tard the beneficial use of no reserve. The resources do not withhold land from agricultural use, but greatly incraease the amount of available farm land.
