HC Deb 12 May 1909 vol 4 c1981W
Mr. YOUNG

asked the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture (Ireland) whether he will see that lecturers or instructors under the Department will not recommend foreign fertilisers in preference to fertilisers produced in Ireland?

Mr. CHERRY

My right hon Friend the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture informs me that the Department's lecturers and instructors do not recommend foreign fertilisers in preference to fertilisers produced in Ireland. The Department's instructions to their officers on this point are simply to recommend the cheapest manures consistent with quality and condition.
