J. W. Gilmore submits a report on the conditions of the La Granja Experimental Station in Occidental Negros, Philippines, and the station’s agricultural prospects. The area around La Granja is dangerous and it is required to be armed when traveling. Much of the estate’s land is idle and the equipment has been stolen or destroyed. Improved machinery and a new variety of cane is required. The system of agriculture should also be diversified. Gilmore believes the station has potential.
