IT is several years since the suggestion was first made that the time had come for publishing a connected account' of the results obtained at the Woburn Experimental Fruit Farm, but the advent of the war rendered it advisable to defer any such undertaking to some more suitable time the same cause, how ever, operated at a later date in the opposite direction, for the economic conditions engendered by the war soon rendered it impossible to continue the Farm on its original basis, and, as stewards of the undertaking, we now find ourselves called upon to render an account of our stewardship.
