HC Deb 18 May 1893 vol 12 c1242
MR. LENG

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Agriculture whether, considering the importance of making the valuable Reports received by the Board on such subjects as rust or mildew on wheat, and on dairy farming in Denmark, Germany, and Sweden, as largely available as possible, he will lay them upon the Table of the he use; and whether, either through the newspapers, free libraries, or village schoolmasters, he will give a larger circulation to the useful leaflets prepared by the Board on matters of general agricultural interest?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE (Mr. H. GARDNER,) Essex, Saffron Walden

I shall be happy to give effect to the wish expressed by my hon. Friend, and to lay upon the Table the two Reports to which he refers. With regard to the leaflets issued by my Department, I can only say that I am anxious to secure for them as wide a circulation as possible amongst the se concerned; and I will endeavour to arrange for them to be regularly supplied to any newspapers, free libraries, or village schoolmasters, who may signify their desire to receive them, and whose names are not already on our circulation list.
