A CERTAIN amount of opposition is anticipated at next week's meeting of the Mysore Legislative Council to a Government Bill to provide for the levy of a coffee cess, temporarily in the Mysore State, in order to maintain an experimental station for the investigation of diseases affecting the coffee plant, and other allied problems relating to coffee cultivation.

The total average area under coffee in the State is 110,000 acres. The outbreak of several kinds of diseases has raised a difficult situation threatening the prospects of the industry. The question of starting an experimental coffee farm for the scientific investigation of these problems has been under consideration by the Government.
