half million dollars annually, be-

At the recent meeting OF the National

port adopted from the committee on
agricultural statistics presents many
facts of great interest to the farmers
throughout the country and those de-
pendent upon them for their prosperity,
showing the large scope of the work
OF the Department of Agriculture and
the enormous actual benefit which its
investigations have been to all Of our
producing areas.
After discussing the question Of the
Departments methods OF gathering
statistical information regarding grow.
ing crops, the National Board Of Trade
recommending a modification of the
present methods, including the cutting
down of the great army of farmers and
others who are called upon by the De.

their crops, and the reorganization of

A bulletin setting forth the results OF

year regarding the present quality of

ly corrodes.
The department claims that some
manufacturers hold that If it were pos
sible to make better grace or wire at
even a slightly higher price, 1t would
be useless to put it on the market, as
the American farmer would not buy 1t,
because he desires cheapness above
other consideration.
The result OF preliminary expert.
ments made by the Agricultural De

the wire as undoubtedly being he chief
cause of the corrosion, and 1t is stated
that the more manganese there is pres

of the Department of Agriculture does
not hold out the greatest possibility to
the future of America of any branch of
the government. Every now and then
new plant or new variety is discover
ed and introduced which may revo-
lutionize that particular branch of
crop production. The macaroni wheat
which the Secretary mentions Is fair
example. Extensive trials of this
wheat have been made throughout the
middle belt of the United States, just
west of the producing area for ordinary
wheat, and it is believed that vast
section of possibly a million square
miles heretofore thought unfit for any
agriculture, is capable of producing
this new grain at the rate Of from Is
to 20 bushels per acre. With such a
startling showing as this due entirely
to the experimental work of the De-
partment who shall say when the food
producing limit Of the world may be
reached?
Bringing Asia to Our Doors.
For every section OF the vastly d.
versified soil and climate of the United
States says Secretary Wilson, there is
a corresponding spot in some portion
of the old world where agriculture has
been successfully prosecuted for CEN
turtles. What we need is full and COM
plete information regarding the old
world agriculture and the intelligent
application of that knowledge to our
own country.
1t would be possible to extend his
letter almost Indefinitely, the Secretary
continues, we're we to go into the var
ious agricultural possibilities which are
now being worked up by the Office Of
Seed and Plant Introduction and Dis
