markets. In this connection the provision of increased land facilities in Kowloon for N.T. vegetables as advised by the 1933 committee on New Territories vegetable produce appears to be doing much good in stimulating local vegetable production.
16. During the year a Committee appointed by H.E. the Governor sat to make inquiries and review any measures that might be taken to foster the production of pigs and poultry in the New Territories for the local market. The Committee's published recommendations are still under consideration, but meanwhile it is noteworthy that several additional 'Leghorn' farms have been established in the district.
17. In conclusion I would again put on record my thanks to the leading elders of the district for their loyal co-operation and advice. Their assistance in effecting, subject to the District Officer's final approval, settlements of local family disputes and feuds, which are not always possible to elucidate accurately in Court or capable of the jurisdiction of the Court, is invaluable and indispensable, and I am much indebted to them for the time and effort they devote to finding solutions to advise for such questions.
