Sir, 
You have alreaaj been good enough to give me 
youx’ views on the subject of tie advisability of 
collecting and putolishiiig articles, notes, queries, 
reports, extract from agricul tux-al Journals ate etc 
x'elative to matters cf‘ interest to the planting community 
in the Federated Malay States and you personally, agree 
with me tlnat the object in view is a good one and that 
* 
it can be best attained by utilising Kit* Rialey’s 
Agx*icultux'al Bulletin as tie medium cf publication. 
2, I have communicated with that gentleman, un¬ 
officially and append copy of a letter I have x'eceived 
from him, under* date 27th Deeembex' last, from which you 
will find that he is willing, able and anxious to oc- 
opex’ate. 
3, Success, however, cannot be achieved unless 
the Federated Malay States planters take a strong and 
healthy interest in tie Bulletin and support it by 
contributing matter and. becoming regular subscx-ioers I 
shall be glad, thei'efore, if you will take an early 
oppox’tunity of bringing the matter before youx* Associa¬ 
tion ana supporting it with such arguments as you will 
best know how to employ 
4, Should the rjrcject meet with tie approval of 
your Association ary suggestions you can make on the 
following
