Book Description

Excerpt from A Dictionary of the Economic Products of India, Vol. 1 of 6 It is needless to explain that the work upon which Dr. Watt has been thus engaged is one which it would have been in any case necessary for the Agricultural Department to carry out inde pendently of any call which was made upon it in connection with Exhibitions. At the same time the utility of Exhibitions in forwarding the performance of the duty should not escape notice. Now that the work has reached the stage of a compil ation of existing facts and statistics up to date, it will become the further duty of the Department to make, with the assistance of the Agricultural Departments of the Provinces, such investiga tions as may be necessary for obtaining the fuller information.
