MCLENDON
Chairman
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to present the annual report for the Smith Barney Adjustable Rate
Government Income Fund ("Fund") for the year ended May 31, 1998. The prevailing
economic and market conditions and a summary of our investment strategy appear
in this report. In addition, a detailed summary of the Fund's historical
performance as well as its current holdings and portfolio management strategy
can be found in the appropriate sections below.
Performance Update
The Fund's investment objective is to seek high current income and to limit the
degree of fluctuation of its net asset value ("NAV") resulting from movements in
interest rates. The Fund seeks these objectives by investing primarily in a
portfolio of adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities ("ARM"), U.S. government
securities and asset-backed securities ("ABS").
The Fund calculates an NAV daily and reports it for Class A shares in national
newspapers under the heading Smith Barney Funds A as "AdjGvA."
As of May 31, 1998, the Fund's Class A shares had an NAV of $9.86. For the
one-year period, the Fund's Class A shares posted a total return of 5.57%,
underperforming the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index's return of 6.98%.
(The Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year U.S. Treasury Index is a market capitalization
weighted index including all U.S. Treasury notes and bonds with maturities
greater than or equal to one year and less than three years.) The Fund's
underperformance reflects the strong performance of U.S. Treasury securities
versus short-term fixed income alternatives over the period. The Fund's
performance was in line with the one-year performance average for adjustable
rate mortgage funds of 5.38% according to Lipper Analytical Services, Inc., an
independent fund-tracking organization.

Bond Market Update
The U.S. economic expansion continued unabated throughout the third and fourth
quarters of 1997 and so far into 1998. Economic growth has far exceeded the
historical non-inflationary annual level of 2%. Despite strong economic growth,
inflation stayed surprisingly subdued, permitting the Federal Reserve Board
("Fed") to remain on the sidelines and leave short-term interest rates unchanged
during the reporting period.
The major story of the past year has been the economic crisis in Asia and its
potential impact on the U.S. economy. While the currency and asset price
devaluations in Asia have negative implications for the demand of U.S. products
in the region, the low prices of Asian imports in the U.S. have helped to keep a
lid on inflation domestically. U.S. exports to Asia have slowed, while the
strength of the U.S. dollar has caused cheap Asian imports to flood the U.S.
market and has exerted downward price pressure on domestic goods. The potential
deflationary impact of the Asian crisis on the U.S. economy has generated
concern at the Fed and may cause the U.S central bank to shift its posture on
interest rates later this year away from its current tightening bias.
The U.S. Treasury market rallied sharply during the fourth quarter of 1997 and
into 1998 before giving back some gains during the past few months. For the
annual period, the yield of the 2-year U.S. Treasury security fell from 6.20% on
May 31, 1997 to a low of 5.16% on January 9, 1998 before rising to finish the
period under review at 5.52% on May 31, 1998. The strong performance of the U.S.
Treasury market was in response to moderating economic growth, low inflation and
a "flight to quality" from investors seeking a safe haven in U.S. Treasury
securities. With Treasury supply waning due to surplus in the federal budget and
increased foreign demand for Treasuries due to their U.S. government backing and
relatively attractive yields, we anticipate positive conditions for Treasury
securities for the balance of 1998.
In light of declining interest rates and faster prepayment speeds during the
period, mortgages underperformed the broader investment grade bond market. As
measured by the Lehman Brothers Mortgage Index, mortgages posted a 9.67% total
return versus 10.91% for the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Index for the one-year
period ended May 31, 1998. Mortgage rates fell below the critical 7% threshold
for the first time since January 1994, causing concerns that increased
refinancing activity would negatively impact the performance of mortgage
securities. However, declining interest rate volatility attracted many investors
to the mortgage market and provided some support for mortgage securities. As
much of the mortgage market has been brought into a "refinanceable" position due
to the recent decline in interest rates, lower-coupon securities have generally
outperformed the more prepayment sensitive higher-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<PAGE>
coupon issues. Within the short-term market, the presence of significant
prepayment risk in the mortgage market benefited asset-backed securities, which
has been the best performing short-term sector to-date in 1998. Moreover, ARMs
have lagged Treasury securities, as the relatively narrow spread between 2-year
and 10-year yields has provided significant incentive for homeowners to
refinance their ARMs into fixed-rate mortgages.
Investment Strategy
Duration is a rough measure of the price sensitivity of a fixed income security
relative to a given change in interest rates. The Fund uses a "targeted
duration" approach which strives for a duration of roughly 1 to 1.5 years and
should result in a fund whose NAV performance is similar to that of a 1- or
2-year U.S. Treasury security. Changes in the prices and yields of these
Treasury securities affect the value of the Fund's securities. In addition to
interest rates, prepayment rates of the mortgage securities held in the
portfolio usually affects the Fund's NAV.
The Fund's assets are actively managed based on our relative value analysis of
individual securities and market sectors. In searching for relative value
opportunities, we target securities and market sectors within the short-duration
market that have underperformed and that we believe to have strong potential for
price appreciation. During the reporting period, the Fund increased its
allocation in ARMs, which have experienced lackluster performance, as well as
Federal Housing Authority ("FHA") Project Loans and AAA-rated commercial
mortgage-backed securities, both of which usually offer better prepayment
protection than typical residential mortgage securities. The Fund's U.S.
Treasury holdings, which posted strong gains during the period, were sold to
finance its mortgage purchases.
Bond Market Outlook
Consumer confidence remains near record highs, consumer spending is still
growing and Gross Domestic Product ("GDP") remains robust. However, we believe
that larger-than-expected business inventories in the first quarter, a lengthy
General Motors labor strike, a worsening trade gap and a slowdown in
manufacturing activity will place a drag on second quarter GDP growth. Federal
Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan's comments have focused on instability in Asia,
which should keep the Fed policy-makers from raising short-term interest rates
in the near future. With respect to mortgage securities, we believe low interest
rate volatility should provide support to that sector. However, we may look to
sell mortgages in order to take advantage of attractive opportunities in other
sectors. For example, recent price weakness and yield spread widening in the ABS
sector may lead us to emphasize those securities.

Adjustable Rate Mortgage-Backed Securities (ARMs) are instruments that bear
interest at rates that adjust at periodic intervals at a fixed amount over the
market levels of interest rates as reflected in specified indexes. ARMs directly
or indirectly represent an interest in, or are backed by and are payable from
mortgage loans secured by real property.
Asset-Backed Securities are similar in structure to Mortgage-Backed Securities,
except that the underlying asset pools consist of credit card, automobile or
other types of receivables, or of commercial loans.
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMOs) are Mortgage-Backed Securities
collateralized by mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through securities. Typically,
CMOs are collateralized by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, but also may be collateralized by whole loans or private mortgage
pass-through securities.
Planned Amortization Class Interest Only (PAC IOs) are CMO IOs which have
repayment schedules that are guaranteed if the actual speed of the prepayments
is within a designated range. PAC classes typically are combined with companion
classes that reduce the risk of the variation of the amount and timing of the
prepayments. Should the prepayments fall outside of the PAC band or ranges, the
class will not pay the prepayment as scheduled.

================================================================================
Notes to Financial Statements
================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
The Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government Income Fund ("Fund"), a
Massachusetts business trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company.
The significant accounting policies followed by the Fund are: (a) security
transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) U.S. government agencies and
obligations are valued at the quoted bid price in the over-the-counter market;
corporate debt securities, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed
securities are valued on the basis of valuations provided by dealers in those
instruments or by an independent pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of
Trustees; (c) securities maturing within 60 days are valued at cost plus
accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which approximates value; (d)
interest income, adjusted for accretion of original issue discount, is recorded
on an accrual basis; (e) dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date; (f) gains or losses on the sale of securities
are calculated by using the specific identification method; (g) direct expenses
are charged to each class; management fees and general fund expenses are
allocated on the basis of relative net assets by class; (h) the Fund intends to
comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of
taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income
and excise taxes; (i) the character of income and gains to be distributed are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. At May 31, 1998, reclassifications
were made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect permanent book/tax
differences and income and gains available for distributions under income tax
regulations. Accordingly, a portion of overdistributed net investment income
amounting to $31,701 was reclassified to paid-in capital. Net investment income,
net realized gains and net assets were not affected by this change; and (j)
estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities
and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements
are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any
other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results
to differ.
2. Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement and Other
Transactions
Smith Barney Strategy Advisers Inc. ("SBSA"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Mutual Management Corp. ("MMC"), which, in turn, is a subsidiary of Salomon
Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("SSBH"), acts as investment adviser to the Fund. The
Fund pays SBSA an investment advisory fee calculated at the annual rate of 0.40%
of the average daily net assets. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government Income Fund 17
<PAGE>
================================================================================
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
================================================================================
SBSA has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with BlackRock Financial
Management Inc. ("BlackRock"), a wholly owned subsidiary of PNC Bank, N.A.
Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement, BlackRock is responsible for the
day-to-day portfolio operations and investment decisions for the Fund. SBSA pays
BlackRock a monthly fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average
daily net assets of the Fund. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.
MMC also acts as the Fund's administrator for which the Fund pays a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets. This fee
is calculated daily and paid monthly.
Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), another subsidiary of SSBH, acts as distributor of the
Fund's shares.
There is a maximum contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 5.00% on Class B
shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from initial purchase
and declines thereafter by 1.00% per year until no CDSC is incurred. For the
year ended May 31, 1998, CDSCs paid to SB for Class B shares were approximately
$7,000.
Pursuant to a Distribution Plan, the Fund pays a service fee with respect to
Class A, B, and I shares calculated at the annual rate of 0.25% of the average
daily net assets of each respective class. The Fund also pays a distribution fee
with respect to Class A and B shares calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% of
the average daily net assets of each class. For the year ended May 31, 1998,
total Distribution Plan fees incurred were:

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation $512,245
================================================================================
</TABLE>
4. Cash Flow Information
Cash, as used in the Statement of Cash Flows, is the amount reported in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund issues and redeems its shares,
invests in securities and distributes dividends from net investment income and
net realized gains (which are either paid in cash or reinvested into the Fund at
the discretion of shareholders). These activities are reported in the Statement
of Changes in Net Assets. Information on cash payments is presented in the
Statement of Cash Flows. Accounting practices that do not affect reporting
activities on a cash basis include unrealized gain or loss on investment
securities and accretion income recognized on investment securities.
5. Repurchase Agreements
The Fund purchases (and its custodian takes possession of) U.S. government
securities from banks and securities dealers subject to agreements to resell the
securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next business day) at
an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Fund requires continual maintenance
of the market value of the collateral in amounts equal to the repurchase price.
6. Reverse Repurchase Agreements
The Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreement transactions for leveraging
purposes. A reverse repurchase agreement involves a sale by the Fund of
securities that it holds with an agreement by the Fund to repurchase the same
securities at an agreed upon price and date. A reverse repurchase agreement
involves the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Fund may
decline below the repurchase price of the securities. The Fund will establish a
segregated account with its custodian, in which the Fund will maintain cash,
U.S. government securities or other liquid high grade debt obligations.

<PAGE>
================================================================================
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
================================================================================
7. Dollar Roll Transactions
The Fund may enter into dollar roll transactions. A dollar roll transaction
involves a sale by the Fund of securities that it holds with an agreement by the
Fund to repurchase similar securities at an agreed upon price and date. The
securities repurchased will bear the same interest as those sold, but generally
will be collateralized by pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories
than those securities sold. Proceeds of the sale will be invested and the income
from these investments, together with any additional income received on the
sale, will generate income for the Fund exceeding the yield on the securities
sold.
As of May 31, 1998, the Fund had no open dollar roll transactions.
8. Securities Traded on a To-Be-Announced Basis
The Fund may trade securities on a "to-be-announced" ("TBA") basis. In a TBA
transaction, the Fund commits to purchasing or selling securities for which
specific information is not yet known at the time of the trade, particularly the
face amount and maturity date in GNMA transactions. Securities purchased on a
TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Fund, normally 15 to
45 days later. These transactions are subject to market fluctuations and their
current value is determined in the same manner as for other securities.
As of May 31, 1998, the Fund held no TBA securities.
9. Options Contracts
Premiums paid when put or call options are purchased by the Fund, represent
investments, which are marked-to-market daily and are included in the schedule
of investments. When a purchased option expires, the Fund will realize a loss in
the amount of the premium paid. When the Fund enters into a closing sales
transaction, the Fund will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales
proceeds from the closing sales transaction are greater or less than the premium
paid for the option. When the Fund exercises a put option, it will realize a
gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such
a sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When the Fund exercises
a call option, the cost of the security which the Fund purchases upon exercise
will be increased by the premium originally paid.
As of May 31, 1998, the Fund had no open purchased put or call option contracts.

When a Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium
received by the Fund is recorded as a liability, the value of which is
marked-to-market daily. When a written option expires, the Fund realizes a gain
equal to the amount of the premium received. When the Fund enters into a closing
purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of the
closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was
written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying
security, and the liability related to such an option is eliminated. When a
written call option is exercised, the cost of the security sold will be
decreased by the premium originally received. When a written put option is
exercised, the amount of the premium originally received will reduce the cost of
the security which the Fund purchased upon exercise. When written index options
are exercised, settlement is made in cash.
The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally
paid. The Fund enters into options for hedging purposes. The risk in writing a
covered call option is that the Fund gives up the opportunity to participate in
any increase in the price of the underlying security beyond the exercise price.
The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund is exposed to the risk of loss
if the market price of the underlying security declines.
During the year ended May 31, 1998, the Fund did not write any options.
10. Futures Contracts
Initial margin deposits made upon entering into futures contracts are recognized
as assets. Securities equal to the initial margin amount are segregated by the
custodian in the name of the broker. Additional securities are also segregated
up to the current market value of the futures contracts. During the period the
futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as
unrealized gains or losses by "marking-to-market" on a daily basis to reflect
the market value of the contract at the end of each day's trading. Variation
margin payments are received or made and recognized as assets due from or
liabilities due to broker, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are
incurred. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss
equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing
transactions and the Fund's basis in the contract. The Fund enters into such
contracts to hedge a portion of its portfolio. The Fund bears the market risk
that arises from changes in the value of the financial instruments and
securities indices (futures contracts).

Independent Auditors' Report
================================================================================
The Shareholders and Board of Trustees of the
Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government Income Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, of the Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government
Income Fund as of May 31, 1998, the related statements of operations and cash
flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each
of the years in the two-year period then ended and financial highlights for each
of the years in the three-year period then ended. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights for the
two-year period ended May 31, 1995, were audited by other auditors whose report
thereon, dated July 26, 1995, expressed an unqualified opinion on those
financial highlights.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of May
31, 1998, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government Income Fund as of May 31, 1998, the
results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in
its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and
financial highlights for each of the years in the three-year period then ended,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
