Although it may entail some cur- tailment of present profits the policy of your directors is to develop new land
so as to put this company on a safe and permanent economic basis, and, taking a long view of the fu ture, they Bre convinced that this can only be achieved by extension of the planted area on the lines now being carried out, making use of the most up-to-date scientific, knowledge for the propagation of high yielding trees in order to give at least double the returns per acre at present pos sible from our existing rubber.
