the functions of the Bureau of Crop Estimates, which is 

 specifically detailed to cover that phase of the government's 

 activities. You have a splendid man here in New England as 

 agent of the Bureau of Crop Estimates, Mr. Sanders, whose 

 headquarters are at Wakefield, and he is doing some admirable 

 work and is getting the confidence of the people, and the reports

 work is being taken care of through the Bureau of Crop Esti- 

 mates, and it would be an encroachment upon their work for 

 the Oflfice of Markets to attempt to duplicate it. Their work 

 will, doubtless, be enlarged to take care of things as they come 

 along. 



While the marketing session was in progress, Mr. E. L. Brad- 

 ford, General Manager of the Turner Center Dairying Associa- 

 tion of Auburn, Maine, was speaking to the Massachusetts

 tor of Milk."
