It will be seen that, in 1875, the September average, 89.2, was only 
reduced to 88 in October; while the September figures of this year, 90.5, 
fell in October to 82.7. The season for gathering has continued very 
favorable, and the harvest is more nearly completed than for several 
years at this season. 
We have collected no systematic reports in December, and therefore 
place on record only the condensed results of the previous returns of the 
season as factors in the calculations concerning the possible crop. 
The appropriation for the support of this division for the present fiscal 
year being inadequate even to the office-work of record and compilation,
