THE JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURE
Sir--Some of the most useful efforts of our Departments of State continue year in and year out without the slight‘est notice. One such is the publicatio~ of the New Zealand Journal of Agriculture. The Department of Agriculture has for 37 years gathered together specialists in matters relating to land, caused them to write briefly and clearly about their work, and published the results with photographs and sketches, The bare facts do no justice, however, to the excellence of the paper, and to the unremitting care of those in charge. It is packed with thought about essentials. Of course this is a small part of the work of the officers of this Department. I don’t suppose they will even feel grateful to you or me for advertisa ing it, for it is issued as a public service for a subscription which I surmise hardly covers postage. But at any rate, it ought to be acknowledged occasion-
ally.
