ECONOMIC SURVEY OF NEW ZEALAND 1954
By the Right Hon. S. G. HOLLAND, Prime Minister and Minister of Finance

This year’s Economic Survey deals with the influence of world events on the New Zealand economy, significant trends and changes in many aspects of the New Zealand economy, and a special survey on the marketing of our farm produce in other countries. It also includes a selection of the more important statistics.

AGRICULTURAL BOTANY
By J. S. YEATES and ELLA O. CAMPBELL

This book supplies a long-felt want in this country by providing a simple explanation of the manner in which plants function and the conditions necessary for their growth. Wherever possible technical terms have been avoided, and those essential to a proper understanding of the subject have been fully explained. Over one hundred illustrations contribute to a clear exposition of the subject. As a result, although the book is primarily intended for use in schools and colleges, it is also suitable for farmers, orchardists, horticulturists, and home gardeners.

236 pages. Price 25s.
