opinion on tne question wnetner or not tne Economic Gardens snail be

In tne Accompanying paper© attention is particularly invited 
to minute dated 3rd September,1922, by Acting Colonial Secretary in 
this paper (2II3/I922), to tne records of Unofficial Meetings in 8477/18 
and 6147/19 and to the marked references on pages B 150,154 and 160 of 
;s of tne Legislative Council for the year 1918, 
been considering the question of scientific work on 
Agriculture in Malaya a good deal in tne past few montns and propose 
dealing witn tne question iti council at an early date. My views are 
tnat all scientific work snould be concentrated under one Department 
viz, the Department of Agriculture F,M,S, But to make any work of tnis 
nature effective it must be clearly defined and must carefully 
supervised. 
Tne policy of experimental work snould be gone into and 
definite senemes for investigation laid Sown , 
Until something of tnis nature i3 done. Govt, snould not commit 
itself to any new expenditure or to Hew any change of Site,
