' MARKETS T?0R FARMERS. l ' ' AttNUAT. REPORT OP TUB BBCRETART OF AORICtTtTVntS. name neinnnd Absorbs the Supply of TJnt-ter-Europrnn Unlrymen liny Our Cheap Ornlns nnd Jllllf oeds-Trade In Our Farm Products Orawlne In the China Sens. WisnirtOTOK, Deo. 1. The Secretary of Ac rlouituro. In his annual report, says of the prac ticability of exporting dairy products that, owing to a better home domand, it Is not com mercially profitable to send butter to "Europe just now, as the home demand at present ab sorbs tho supply. For tho purpose of obtan Ins tor dairymen nil the facts relating to the ex port of this article, the department sent an agent to Paris to ascertain what .eneddrage mont there would be to ship butter to tha. porj and an agent to Hamburx to ascertain the facts retarding enstoms duties, ns woll as prohibi tions and other difficulties that might meet ex porters of butter $0 Germany. It was found that no line of steamers sailing to Frenoh ports direct could furnish refrigerator apace, so ship ments .could not tjo mado during hot weather. WhenoTot our fiome supply of finest butter ex ceeds tho home demand, It oan be -profitably sent .to bptli Franco nnd Germany. The Amerloan fartnor. ho says, la now sell ing cheap grains and millfceds to the Euro pean dairymen, who meet us In European mar kets with products mado from raw material furnished bv us. But there 1 reason to be Hove that there is a growing tendenoy toward the consumption of grains and mlllfeods at home qnd exporting the products of skill and Intelligence. The trado In American farm produotsis growlnnrln the China seas, and In order that markets may be opened up to Japan, China, and other countries of tho Pacific Ocean, an agent is now In that region ostabllshlna agen cies, to whloh tho department will make trial shipments nnd Bather all Information possi ble for tho American producer. Tho Bcoretary recommends tho extension and adoption of tho provisions of tlm law re garding 'the Inspection and certification ot meats and meat products for export so a to make them apply to'butter and cheese. The brands or "pure butter" and "full cream uheese" should then bo affixed by tho United Htatos Inspectors to such products as camo up to tho reriulred standard of quality, lhls would placo the Rood butter and cheese ot this country In foreign markets under the identify ing label and guaranty of the United States Government. . ,. , . Tho Secretary enlarsos upon the need of naturo teaching In the common school. He says that there is a crowing Interest In educa tion that relates to production, and all classes of Intelligent people favor It. More knowl edge by the farmer of what he deals with every day would enable him to control conditions, produce more from an acre, and contribute more to the general welfare. The Secretary calls attention to the necessi ty of his department undertaking; nn investi gation ot the agricultural conditions of tho in sular dependencies ot the United States, em phasizing the tact that the department should, as soon ns possible, put itself In a position to extend to the producers of these now regions . largely dependent for their prosperity upon agriculture, tho benefits which It now admit tedly confers upon our own farmers. He also advises tho careful study of the inseot pests and Plant diseases In these islands, with a lew-not only of discovering., preventives .or remedies, but ot guarding aualnst their In troduction lnf,o the United Slates. The report then reviews at length the opera tions ot the several bureaus, divisions and of llces which carry on the work of the depart ment, reports of some of which hnve already been maae public. In conclusion. Secretary Wilson expresses the opinion that-a review of this work for the past year shows it to have been one of satisfactory atrowth and develop ment, and he refers to tho many manifesta tions of a widespread Interest In the work and to the constantly growing demand upon his department for information concerning the greatest variBty of agricultural problems, and which, the farmer can obtain through no other agency.
