SUPPLY OF INDIAN COTTON TO ENGLAND.

RESOLUTION BY HIS EXCELLENCY THE VICEROY AND GOVernorGENERAL IN COUNCIL.

Fort William, the 22nd July 1861.

THE questions of how to increase the supply of Cotton, and

Record of inquiries

and experiments for the encouragement of Cotton cultivation in

India.

how to improve its quality, have, at various times, for many years past, occupied the attention of the Government of India, and very much information on these subjects is on record in manuscript, besides the voluminous selections which, from time to time, have been published in various shapes, both in India and England.

But some of these compilations have become scarce, and others are in forms which preclude easy reference to them; nor is there any single volume, or series of volumes, which would be of much practical use as a guide to any person desirous of learning what had been done in each Province, and with what result, to improve and increase the production of Cotton, and in what direction further efforts are required, or are most likely to be successful.
