THE mw a a The College MONTANAN F. B. Linfield Dean of Agriculture DEAN OF AGRICULTURE The College of Agriculture of the Montana State College appeals to young men.to become skilled workers in the fundamental industry of agriculture. The great need of our country is for men of training, of judgment, and of vision as leaders in the rural communities. To the College we must look for those whether they are farmers, teachers, research workers, or active in any other agricultural field. The development and progress of the College of Agriculture and of the agriculture of the state will to a large extent be dependent on the intelligence and vision that the men of the immediate future, who are the students of today, can bring to the working out of a profitable and progressive agriculture in all parts of this wide, extended state. DEAN OF ENGINEERING As the 1923 Montanan goes to press the hopes of the College of Engineering are centered in the new engineering buildings which the citizens of Montana have, under most discouraging financial conditions, erected as a symbol of their belief in higher technical education as one of the essentials to the progress of our State. With pride in these new facilities and with deep appreciation of the generosity of the people of Montana, the College of Engineering would be ungrateful and undeserving of the larger opportunity afforded it, did it not dedicate the best efforts of its alumni, students and faculty to the task of repaying the State by the fullest possible measure of service. By the response to this obligation, by the engineers’ contribution to the progress and development of the State will the public judze the wisdom of its confidence in the engineering profession. E. B.
