I should like to congratulate the promoters on this second agricul Lural show in the New Territories. I have not yet been Although round the exhibits I understand it marks a definite advance on last year's effort and shows what the co-operative spirit can accom- plish. Now these shows are not meant merely to be an exhibition of special productions. They are meant to inspire in the farmers of our agricultural districts spirit of friendly rivalry and a de- aire to improve their agricultural methods. Sir Robert struck the right note when he pointed out that we want these shows to be educational and also that our educational work, when we seek to break away

from age-long traditional methods, must start at the very bottom and must show by actual practice that modern ne thods of agriculture can produce better crops than the pyatem which have been in use for past centuries.
