This book aims at interesting farmers in date cultivation in suitable localities in the Punjab and what seems equally necessary since people have seen the comparatively fine date fruits grown in the Punjab on imported trees, warning intending planters against laying out large date plantations in unsuitable situations. The questions dealt with in the note are those which have been put to arise in the minds of, date-growers. They have been dealt with briefly and of necessity in language as non-technical as possible. It is pleasing to be able to say that all results of investigations made up to date tend to show most decidedly that the people may derive great benefits from date cultivation if it is properly conducted in suitable situations. Major Buck, I.A., Deputy Commissioner, Muzaffargarh, has just acquired a further 19 acres of good land for the District Board to lay out in a date plantation, and have more orders form local farmers for young date plants can supply for several years.
