MR. E. A. EARP ENDOWMENT FOR THE APIARY COLLECTION

Many years ago Mr. E. A. Earp, formerly Chief Apiarist of the Department of Agriculture, presented his collection of books on bees to the Library. It was described in the “Record” No. 9. Recently Mr. Earp made a further proof of his goodwill by providing an endowment fund of £3OO for the development of the collection. In view of the fact that the value of honey production in the country is about £1,000,000 annually, the usefulness of this section of the Library could prove important.

The original library and the present endowment are a memorial to his wife. The money has been vested in the Turnbull Library Endowment Trust, which now stands at over £9,000.
