§ Mr. Chorltonasked the Minister of Agriculture what progress has been made towards the production of a cheap portable crop-drying machine; and whether a prize for such a machine has been offered?
§ Mr. W. S. MorrisonSeveral types of grass-drying machines have recently been marketed, most of them being non-portable. So far as I am aware, there is no portable machine on the market at a price sufficiently low to satisfy the demand for a cheap and efficient grass drier. I have no information as to the offer of a prize for such a machine.
