Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Aldred F. Barker, 13 September 1921
Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/27/5
Scope and Contents
Barker asks Ewart to confirm what he wishes to do with the patterns that have been sent to him. He writes that he is enclosing two samples of cotton in the hope that Ewart might be able to get photomicrographs illustrating the special properties that the cottons possess. He wonders whether they should get photomicrographs for the report on Scotch wools which he wishes to see printed as soon as possible. He reports that Stordy has offered them some Merino rams bred in the Andes which he suggests they cross with English Blackface sheep.
