DEAN IAMES M. HAMILTON To this man we owe much of what we honor and respect in Montana State College. Since assisting in the very foundation of the college, he has been one of its outstanding professors, presidents, and deans.

IOHN C. TAYLOR AND THE EXTENSION SERVICE The man in charge of all work in agri- culture is Henry A. Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture for the United States: beneath him C. W. Warburton, Director of Exten- sion Work for the U. S., and then Iohn C. Taylor, Director of the Agricultural Ex- tension Service for Montana. Of course every state has one, but even so there are only 47 other men that have the same title in these United States. He directs all the work carried on by' his 34 County Extension Agents, who supply information on any question or problem in the field of agriculture and its related branches. 4-H club Work is a high spot of the departments efforts, and farm homes are made more pleasant by the extension home demonstration agents. DEAN LINFIELD AND THE EXPERIMENT STATION This rather gruff speaking but genial dean, capably directs the now growing and flourishing Montana Experiment Sta- tions. Facilities for the intense research along the plant and animal lines include, besides the 920 acres at Bozeman, the branch stations at Moccasin, Havre, and Corvallis. Research activities along ex- tensive programs include anything and everything in which a farmer might be interested. The problems confronted under Montana's most adverse conditions are stressed particularly. From these research experiments, data is gathered and distributed to ranchers and farmers by means of bulletins and circulars prepared under the direction of the department heads. Besides his duties as Director of the Agricultural Experiment station, Director Linfield also holds the position of Dean of Agriculture in the college proper.
