Speaking this week at the opening of what he called the first full-scale field day to be held by the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research at Lincoln, the director of the Crop Research Division of the department. Dr 11. C. Smith, said that when Canterbury members of Parliament had visited them several months ago they had suggested that they should not hide their light under a bushel and should endeavour to show the public what they were doing in research.
Dr Smith said that they were looking to farmers for a guide as to the sort of form such an occasion should take. In commending the department on its first attempt in this direction, the president of North Canterbury Federated Farmers, Mr W. N. Dunlop, said he hoped that it would be the first of many.
