AGRICULTURE Since the opening of the college seventy years ago, graduates in agriculture have been going forth in large numbers to till the soil and also occupy positions of dignity, importance and usefulness in the educational world. Thus the institution has exercised a gigantic influence in directing the trend of the development of American agriculture. Through the intervening years the courses have been broadened to meet the ever changing demand and permit of a wide range of specialization in general agriculture, forestry, horticulture, land- scape architecture, agricultural economics and agricultural engineering with options in animal and dairy husbandry, poultry, apiculture, crops, soils, etc. This is the fortieth anniversary of the formal organization of the Agricultural Experi- ment Station under the Hatch Act. The large and well trained staff of research workers with well equipped laboratories are busily occupied in attempts to solve some of the many complex problems of the farmer. Scientific research is basic to agricultural education and extension and is responsible for much of the notable progress made in .American agriculture. The Agricultural Extension Division through its administrative officers, county agents, extension specialists and club officials is constantly rendering available to the farmer much new information to aid in economic production and marketing and affords relief from animal and plant diseases and insect pests.

A college is not merL-Iy a group of Imildings, a heautit ' ul campus, an cHicicnt faculty, an earnest student body or a well organized course of study. All these arc but factors by means of which the purpose of the College is carried out. That purpose is found in the meaning that life takes on in after years for those who have gone from the campus as alumni. What docs life really and truly mean for them? Are thej more open-minded, more tolerant, humbler in spirit, more efficient workers, more willing to serve their families, communities, state and nation and with it all do tbry tind more enjoyment in lifr itself?
