APPENDIX C. 
HON. TREASURER’S STATEMENT. 
The Balance Sheet and List.of Subscribers are shown on 
the following pages. 
There is, unfortunately, a debit balance, due to the fact 
that the expenses have unavoidably increased and the 
receipts are rather less than previously. It is to be regretted 
also that the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries did not see 
their way this year to grant a further sum for research work. 
There is, however, still a balance in hand for this purpose, so 
this work will be carried on as usual next year. It is to be 
hoped that there will be increased support, either by special 
donations or by annual subscriptions, to enable the Committee 
to open up further fields of useful work and research, which 
are even more important now than they have ever been.
