[From Baron Von Mueller, forwarding two packets of sugar beet seed, the White French and Vitniorius1 varieties. Received.]
Typesetter's error for Vilmorin's?
Little not found. The text given here is from 'Ordinary business, Correspondence' in the report of the monthly meeting of the Ararat Shire Council held on 1 December 1893 (Ararat advertiser and chronicle for the Stawell and Wimmera districts. 5 December 1893, p. 3). The seeds were probably sent around the middle of the month when seed was distributed to other councils; see M to T. Easton, 16 November 1893 (in this edition as 93-11-16b) and notes thereto. It is dated accordingly.
