Morphet Professor of Education The establishment of the School of Education was authorized by the Board of Trustees in 1915. The following year, 1916, the Legislature enacted the constitutional amendment which was ratified by the people, giving the right to tax themselves for school support. The revenue from these taxes caused such a great growth in the schools of our State that from the first, Auburn’s new department found a greater demand than it could satisfy. During the following years, the number of students enrolling in the High Schools of Alabama was more than doubled. Thus the field for teachers is a wide one and each day grows more attractive in financial recognition.

Pope I IoRTICU LTURE DEPARTM ENT C. I.. Isbell W. D. Kimbrough R. W. Taylor I.. M. Ware The College of Agriculture is divided into two phases, Research and Educational. These are represented by the departments of Agronomy, Agricultural Engineering, Animal Husbandry, Botany, Etomology, Farm Management, and Horticulture. The success of Agriculture depends primarily on the Research Department. The particular duty of this department is to discover new facts and principles that will aid in the success of the farm and to put these in a form that they will be of use to the average farmer. The Educational Department, though secondary, is none the less important. It is secondary only in that it teaches the information discovered by the Research Department. Thus, both combine to make more efficient farmers of the South and to make agriculture a greater success. 30 ssCBDEI W. II. Appleton J. F. Fudge J. C. Grimes F. W. Burns W. H. Eaton M. I..
