MILK AND CREAM. 
The total dally supply has been 21,930 cans of milk. 
175 cans of condensed milk and 402 oans of cream 
The average price paid for the surplus on the plat¬ 
forms has been 11.49 a can of 40 quarts. 
The question of establishing a bureau for tbe 
registration of plaDts, in connection with tbe 
present Division of Pomology, was brought be¬ 
fore tbe Section of Botany and Horticulture of 
the Association of American Agricultural Col¬ 
leges and Experiment Stations, by Prof. L. C. 
Coroett. of the West Virginia University. After 
a careful consideration of the matter, the section 
appointed a committee to report upon the feasi¬ 
bility of the scheme, and to suggest the outline 
of a plan to be presented to Congress at an early 
date. The idea is to have some one place in the 
United States where all plants placed upon tbe 
market can be officially registered, numbered, 
and a description, together with specimens of 
the bloom, seed, foliage, and fruit, placed on 
recc'd. Each person interested is requested to 
formulate his Ideas on the subject and send to 
some member of the following committee, who 
will put them in such form that a bill may be 
drafted at an early dale and presented before 
Congress. The committee consists of L. C. Cor¬ 
bett. MorgaDtown. W. Va.. chairman; W. A. 
Taylor. United States Department of Agriculture,
