Abstract
IMMEDIATELY after the War there was manifested a great enthusiasm for research in nearly all the branches of science, and in agriculture, where the relation of pure science to the applied branches and to the practice of the field is a very close one, there was launched a number of comprehensive schemes both for the pursuit of knowledge and for its dissemination throughout the agricultural community. Thetime has now arrived when it is possible to view the good first fruits of some of these schemes and to say au revoir to others which have been found impracticable, or were born before their time.
