Our bureau of agricultural econ

tural products and will direct and
compile statistics in cooperation with
the Department of Agriculture, and
the various state agencies. This work
will give a much better insight into
the supply and demand of agricultural
products, with the thought that this
will lead to more efficient marketing.
Our bureau of transportation is
making a study of necessary trans
portation facilities, both by land and
by water, for the marketing of our
farm crops. The purpose of this bu-

transportation problem and govern
its action accordingly It proposes to
establish rate and traffic files, which
have never yet been built up for agri-
