A Note-Book of Agricultural Facts and Figures (Classic Reprint)

Agriculture and the production of grain, and the increased demand for the present publication has necessitated a third edition. Opportunity has been taken to revise and correct it where possible, but the work has had to be done intermittently and in my scanty leisure, and I trust its users will pardon the many mistakes. 1have not altered the figures for costing :all values are shifting relatively and actually, and I have thought it better to stick to the pre-war figures, which at any rate represent a fairly well-defined standard. I am responsible for the arrangement of the matter, but I need hardly say that without the generous assistance of my colleagues on the staff of this department the book could not have been compiled. I desire to express my thanks to Mr. Cecil Fischer, of the Indian Forest Service, for the notes on the timber trees of the Presidency. I wish also to express my thanks to the Government of Madras, for the generous way in which they have recognized my efforts. Madras, January 1920. R. CECIL WOOD.
