IS. The report of the secretary of agriculture begins with a review of the work of the bureau of iwunal industry. The total bum of animals inspected at the slaughter houses was considerably over is. whom?, an iacuusc of mure than :.,5txi.(K)o over the previous year. During1 the year ante-mortem inspection was also made of S,tJo,0J0 animals, 'lhe cost of inspection was reduced to 1.1 oent! per aa.tnsi. luls'JS, iusptctiq.n cost 4J cents ;cr animal, and iu mi it cost lj cents. Orer 1.300,0m) ammais, cattle and sheep, were inspected for foreign market, of which 673,000 were shipped abroad. Over li.0tW.ttoo pounds of pork was inspected microscopically for export, agaiust 3f,0JO,OW) Iu iy'l aud ii.UW.00J lay.. 6 Uf the amount exported last year nearly 33.0ü,JO pounds went to tiermany and over 0,uu9,O(HJ pounds to France. This inspection involved the placing of over i.MW.OSO specimen onder the mienxcoe. lhe e-. o: the examination was les than tvnts, or for each pound of meat 2 aii.iv lhe loss of cattle in transit to Kurope was greater than in lvl, he.ng respectively fur 1S5 ani lnH, .Hi and .3" per cent. Over 0.1)00 cars, carrying over "Ai.- i 000 animals, were inspected for Texu? fever ut quarantine pens during th quaninl.ne season; nearly ö.irhj eai loans of cattle were ;npectoa als iu transit, aud eur -'-.uoO cari were cleaned and disin.ec'.ed.

Although the meat of the uuth American cattle i,s not as saiableathe American, the business is profitable and likely to increase. American cattle eell, thousrh slaughtered soon after landing at prices equal to the average paid for üritish carcussei. Tlte export of American horses to Great liritain has increased steadilv. liavliif' more than doubled since 1503 amounting in the first ehhl months o. 1S05 to t',755 head, valued at nearly S3,oOo,000.

The secretary tay.s the crop-rcport-iu work is the subject or constant criticism. As at present organized it can hardly fail to be otherwise, though more HUtisfattory at present than at any previous tirae. The secretary thinks the duty of ascertaining the acreage of staple crops in each state on Juno 1 of each year might be imposed upon the authorities of agricultural colleges aud statious in coasideratton of the annual appropriations they receive from the 11at1ua.1l treasury.

He commends the extension of the civil service, which now includes all the chiefs of division in the department, lie regards an extension of the law to include nil non-political ollicers as essential to eliicieut service; recommends radical reorganization in the matter of salaries, to conform government service to that of reputaidc commercial establishments throughout the country, aud condemns the sjwils system as one by which "favaiitisrn," injustice and dependence upon politics! inilncuee saturates the service with mediovrlty, indolence anJ inelllcieucy. The report closes w ith a discussion of the question of the future of larms and fai niing iu the United States. Tha nverag-j value of farms by the ccn.su of IM'O w as 2.01HJ. The value of implements, domestic animals aad sundries will make a total farm plant of &!,ooj for a family averaging s.x persons. These farms have fed the farmers aud their families and forty million urban residents, besides supplying 500,000,000 worth of products to f.n-elgu consumers. In the presence of these fact the secretary asks: "Now can anyone dare to assert that farming is generally uurcmuuerntive and unsatisfactory tc those who intelligently follow it?"
