VII. Politics and religion would be entirely excluded from and would 
find no place in our Journal. 
This is our programme and we hope we would be able to carry it on 
quite successfully. Jt is the consciousness of the w importance of this subject 
that has induced us to undertake this work. As our motives are disinter¬ 
ested and our efforts sincere, and since there is a great want of such a Journal, 
we trust that we will get all the sympathy, co-operation, help and guidance 
that we deserve and may be in need of from all those that take a keen 
interest in the improvement of the Indian agricultural industry and from 
those for the amelioration, of whose condition this Journal is intended. 
The columns of our paper would be devoted to the following sub¬ 
jects regularly with a few alterations as occasions may demand : --- 
fi) The milch and plough cattle. 
( 2 ) Manures. 
( 3 ) Weather and crop reports. 
( 4 ) Agricultural implements. 
( 5 ) Cultivation of crops, indigenous and exotic. 
• • 
( 6 ) Pests. 
( 7 ) Government rules, regulations and laws. 
( 8 ) Questions, answers and correspondence. 
( 9 ) Market reports* 
tr 
• * 
( 10 ) And agricultural advertisements. 
We invite correspondence and contributions, experiments and sug¬ 
gestions, news and comments on these subjects either in the M'ahrathi or’the 
English language, the latter of which we would be glad to render in the 
Mahrathi and get it printed.
