"JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURE"
In its new and enlarged form, "The Journal of Agriculture" is fully worthy of the important Department whose interests it represents. In its previously more or less restricted form this publication rendered valuable service to the farming community in particular, and more generally to the country as a whole, but that service will now be largely expanded. The "Journal of Agriculture" presents practical instruction for the benefit of the man on the land, and also makes him conversant with the latest researches of agriculture science, an important feature being the presentation of this information in a form intelligible to the man who knows more, about pigs or bees than he does about quadratic equations or chemistry. As the Prime Minister remarks in a foreword: "It is reasonable to believe that a Journal on up-to-date lines as regards the explanation and illustration of scientific knowledge could not fail to be of benefit to efficient farmers, and a boon to the man with a lot to learn and not afraid to accept instruction."
