Abstract

THE Royal Agricultural Society of England (16 Bedford Square, London, W.C.I) has published its ninety-seventh volume, which includes, as last year, the "Farmers' Guide to Agricultural Research". The latter consists of a review of research work in various branches of agriculture, each section being contributed by a recognized authority on the subject. The journal also contains a number of special articles on important questions such as housing the agricultural worker, labour, power and equipment in arable farming, the improvement of hill grazings and the technique of modern field experiments. On the animal side are articles dealing with the control of sheep ticks and systems of housing for pigs. The series on notable farm enterprises is continued, the Cambridge University Farm and Mr. Clyde Higgs's dairy farms being described in this number. The economics of farming are represented in an article on changes in beef imports before and after the Ottawa Agreement. The price of the journal is 15s.
