Book Description
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Royal Society of Queensland, Vol. 33: For 1921 In 1916-17 the author investigated the value as stock feed of the common pest pear (0. inermis) for the Queensland Government at Wallumbilla, Maranoa district. There was subsequently published by the Department of Agriculture a popular bulletin in which the main conclusions of the investigation were set forth. Experimental data bearing on the value of the common pest pear have, however, not previously appeared. The author is indebted to the Minister for Agriculture (Hon. W. N. Gillies) for permission to make the basis of this paper his technical manuscript dealing with the Wallumbilla experiments in possession of the department. The short description of the feeding trials is derived from, and the tabulated data upon which the conclusions here advanced are founded are reproduced by permission from the manuscript referred to. Introduction. The Prickly Pear Travelling Commission appointed by the Queensland Government to report on means of controlling the prickly-pear pest drew attention (7) to the considerable use of opuntias as drought feeds and their systematic employment in productive rations for stock prevailing in various countries.

Book Description
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Royal Society of Queensland for 1922, Vol. 34: Issued 31st January, 1923 I Have taken as the scientific portion of my address a Contribution to our Knowledge of the Flora of Papua (British Ne Guinea), based on collections made there by me in 1918, but before proceeding with this subject would like to touch on a few matters of the past year of general interest to scientific workers in Queensland. The Councils report for the past session shows that satisfactory progress has been made. It was regrettable that towards the end of the year the Council was obliged, owing to lack of funds, to discontinue the publication of papers submitted. By a special effort, however, the honorary treasurer (the late Dr. Shirley) was able before the end of the year to place our finances on a more satisfactory basis. A sad feature has been the loss by death of four members of the Society. William J. Byram, who died on the 10th March, 1922, was a native of Brisbane. He was educated at the Brisbane Grammar School, where in 1880 he won the Lilley Gold Medal as head of the school. He was well known in legal and business circles in Brisbane. He A as a good classical scholar, and within the last few years of his life had produced a verse translation of Echylus "Prometheus Vinctus" so scholarly and so poetic, especially iii the rendering of its choruses, that Prof. Gilbert Murray (Oxford Professor of Greek), to whom it was submitted, said he was proud to think it was the work of a fellow-countryman (he himself being an Australian). The translation is now in the Queensland University Library, where it may serve as an incentive to future classical scholars. The late Mr. Byram was a keen microscopist, being especially interested in Freshwater Algae, and helped the late F. M. Bailey in bringing out the three bulletins of the Botany Series published by the Queensland Department of Agriculture and Stock devoted to the Freshwater Algae of Queensland, by translating from the German the original descriptions forwarded to Mr. Bailey from European specialists who had submitted to them the material upon which the bulletins referred to were based. An appreciation of the late Mr. Byram from the pen of Mr. R. H. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
