J. A. SCOTT WATSON (Professor of Rural Economy, University of Oxford) Tonight Mr. William Burkitt will speak of the forthcoming Show of the Royal Agricultural Society at Newcastle-on-Tyne. This year's 'Royal' will be held from July 2 to July 6 and is being looked forward to, as usual, as one of the main events in the farmer's year. The last Newcastle Show was one of the most successful in the history of the Society, with an attendance of 186,000. Newcastle is working for another big success this year, and there will be several new features of interest to farmers.
Professor Scott Watson will follow with a commentary on some recent developments in agricultural marketing.
