Before develop- ments are undertaken, it is considered that further discussion of the operating policies of the Bureau is necessary. A. M. Scientific Ag-riculture. Its Ed- itorial Policy. An understanding should be reached as to the editorial policy which should be adopted for the official organ of the Society: whether it should publish only articles which are strictly technical, whether it should contain a technical section, whether it should publish both technical and popular articles, whether special supplements devoted to research should be published, etc., etc. It has been difficult to adopt any definite policy in the past and this is the first opportunity, since the Society took over the magazine, of dis- cussing a very important question.
