Part I] Lindsay and Harlow : Lac and Shellac 
Another point that may be brought to notice is that Government 
should do everything possible to encourage the production of the 
better qualities of lac. With this object in view the propagation of 
Kusum lac might be encouraged in preference to other varieties where 
the choice can be made; and, after Kusum, of Ber and Ghont lac. 
If high grade stick-lac is available the production of high grade 
shellac will increase at the expense ofTN; the paramount influence 
of TN on all markets will decrease and with it the tendency to 
speculation.
