The work of the farm visitor is proving helpful as he instructa and advises farmers in all matters In which he has special knowledge and is able to bring their needs before the Committee. He also presents the seeds which are pro- vided by the Association, and as far as possible supervises the growth of plants from the seeds,

The other employee keeps in touch with farmers and the mem bers of Committee, and arranges about the exhibits, he gets to know hundreds of farmers, and is of great service to them.

The travelling expenses of these and their salaries are met by other contributions, and we have to express our gratitude for the generous, support of many friends year by year.

CHILDREN INTERESTED Our farm visitors have been able to interest children in various schools, and it is hoped that some Pof these may later become students in our elementary agricultural school, which we hope to open when our building is completed.

We are extremely grateful to Mr. J. E. Joseph. who has most generously offered to erect the building, which is being put up in good style, and which will be an ornament to the countryside near the Fanling Station.

Some people have proposed that millions of cabbages should be grown on the New Territories- perhaps the idea of a cabbage in the mind of a person owering such | suggestions is what might be call- led 'a good old English cabbage."

„It can be said that since this Association started, the growth of vegetables of many kinds has in- creased very greatly in the Terri- tories, while fruit orchards and egg production have also increns- ed,

CO-OPERATIVE MARKETING It has not yet been possible to unite the people in co-operative selling or marketing, or even lo purchase of seed. We have been contemplating ordering seed for them, but the uncertainty of re- payment renders this impractic- able and so seed is given if plant- ed under our supervision.

Thanks must be given to Lady Ho Tung and others who have made special exhibits which add to the attraction of the Show, and to Mr. Green of the Botanical De- partment, who arranges for a very effective show each year, and to schools and others for their valu- able exhibits.
