§ MR. HICKSasked the President of the Board of Trade, Whether he can, before the end of the Session, lay upon the Table of this House a Statement of the number of acres thrown out of cultivation in each of the several counties in England and Wales?
§ MR. CHAMBERLAIN, in reply, said, that some time ago, in answer to a Question from the hon. Member for Forfarshire (Mr. J. W. Barclay), he promised that he would lay upon the Table, simultaneously with the Agricultural Returns, a Statement as to Unoccupied Farms and Holdings. He fancied this would give the hon. Member all the information he desired; and he hoped the Returns would be in the hands of hon. Members certainly not later than the beginning of September
