812 Agricultural Journal of Victoria. 



The Victorian Department of Agriculture is an excellent one of 

 which the agricultural community may well be proud. It will, I 

 am certain, compare favorably with the Agricultural Departments 

 of other States, and I can assert that this State does much 

 more through its Agricultural Department for the farmers than the 

 Agricultural Department of England does for farmers in the old 

 country. We have many highly qualified and enthusiastic officers 

 working harmoniously together, yet straining every nerve to make 

 their respective Branches a success. 



What is required is to give heads of Branches sufficient assistance 

 in men and money, so that the community may reap the full benefit 

 of the intelligence and training of the excellent staff of officers who 

 form the Department of Agriculture.
