DtmRjnon or pdarhacy PROFESSOR McKELLlPS WAY hack in what might Ik reasonably regarded as ancient history —namely, in 1898—it became apparent that a demand existed for an opportunity to obtain education in theoretical pharmacy. Prior to that time it had been necessary for those Oregonians who desired such educational advantages to go outside the state in order to obtain them. The attention of the Regents of O. A. C. was directed to this condition of affairs. Jt at once became evident that this type of institution, a land grant college, because of its extensive laboratory facilities and its faculty of trained workers in the sciences, was admirably adapted to the function of offering a course in pharmacy. It was thereupon decided that such a course be added to the curriculum of the college. A teaching staff was at once organized and the work was offered in September of the year mentioned—1898. The department is now attempting to shape its work not only to the purpose of turning out finished pharmacists, but also in such manner as to qualify its graduates for positions in the Federal food and drug laboratories, a branch of government service offering many attractions to scientific workers.

|EOU?in nil a forestry n I I 11K Department of Forestry in tile 11 Agricultural College was created in February, 1610. when (icorge V. Peavy. of the Federal Forest Service. having headquarters at San Francisco, was ap|)ointc l Professor of Forestry and head of the department. At the time Professor Peavy was placed in charge of the department. 26 men. formerly students in the Department of l.otany and Forestry, enrolled in the newly created department. From that time the growth in numbers has been such that, at the time of the publication of the l‘ 14 Orange, the foresters have 56 men at work, an increase of 115 | er cent in three vears. PROFESSOR PEAVY ' ... The work of the department is in the hands of professional foresters who have been trained in the l est forest schools of the I’nited States and who have had extensive experience in the Government service. Without an exception, the men who have graduated from the department and have desired work in forestry have secured good positions. Representatives of this department are employed in the Federal Forest Service, in the state service and in lumbering and logging ojierations. The timbermen of the state have recently become actively interested in the forestry work of the College, for the reason that they arc coming to feel the need of trained men in their work. At their request, the Hoard of Regents recently established a course in Digging Fngineering as a part of the work of the department. For kst r y Depart ni k n t George Wilcox I’eavv. M.
