Opis

Excerpt from Farming Industries of Cape Colony The distance covered during my South African visit completed the one hundred and fifty thousand miles of foreign travel by land and sea which I have undertaken during the last nine years in the interests of agricultural research. During that period I have studied on the spot the agricultural resources of India, Australia and New Zealand, Canada, the United States of America, Greece, Italy, Egypt, and South Africa, and I have published accounts of the results of my investigations. On this occasion my visit was undertaken at the invitation of the Government of Cape Colony. Soon after the appearance of my Australian work in 1891, I was approached on the subject by the late Sir Charles Mills, then Agent-General for the Colony in London, and I have since learned that this was done probably at the suggestion of the Hon. J. X. Merriman; but my existing engagements made it impossible to comply with the suggestion till the spring of last year, when, on the completion of the five months' course of lectures in this University in the end of March, six months were left free for the work in hand. The ground it was necessary to cover was so extensive that the four months spent in the country were barely sufficient to do it without more than the usual amount of discomfort and personal fatigue, and the undertaking proved more trying from the physical standpoint than even the journey of thirteen thousand miles which I made by rail in India in the hot weather of 1887.
