WORKS ON 



TROPICAL AGRICULTURE 



THE COTTON PLANT IN EGYPT: Studies 

 in Physiology and Genetics. By W. Lawrence 

 Balls, M.A. Illustrated. 8vo. 5s. net. 



NATURE. — "There can be no doubt of the freshness and 

 originality of mind with which Mr. Balls has attacked a great diversity 

 of problems in their application to the cotton plant. Some of these 

 questions are genetic, some pathological, some physiological in the 

 stricter sense, and most of them involve considerations of direct 

 economic importance. Starting with the intention of improving the 

 Egyptian cotton crop, the author found himself led on from one 

 problem to another, and to the solution of each he makes a real 

 contribution, often approaching to the dignity of discovery." 



JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC BIOLOGY.— ■« A most interest- 

 ing volume, full of important results." 



THE DISEASES OF TROPICAL PLANTS. 



By Prof. M. T. COOK, Ph.D. Illustrated. 8vo. 

 8s. 6d. net. 



TROPICAL LIFE.—" This is a book the appearance of which 

 we greet with the greatest pleasure. We are told you can have too 

 much even of a good thing. Plant-diseases are not a good thing, but 

 a very bad one, so we may be excused for saying that no one can 

 have too much information about them, and although the amount that 

 has been crowded in this book is marvellous, yet we only regret that 

 there is not still more." 



JOURNAL OF BOTANY. — "The illustrations are abundant 

 and instructive, and the book will doubtless be of great value to the 

 agriculturist in the tropics." 



SYLVICULTURE IN THE TROPICS. By 



A. F. Broun. Illustrated. 8vo. 8s. 6d. net. 



NATURE. — "The book is very well printed, illustrated, and 

 bound, and it contains a large amount of valuable and most interest- 

 ing information which should make it a useful guide to foresters, 

 especially in those countries which are chiefly referred to." 



BULLETIN OF THE IMPERIAL INSTITUTE.— "This 

 book should prove of much value to foresters and botanists in the 

 tropics."
