THE AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION The Nortli Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station was established originally as a division ot the State Dei artnient ot Agriculture, in accordance with an Act ot the Gen- eral Assembly of 1877. Its work was greatly promoted by an Act of Congress of 1887, known as the Hatch Act, which contributed a definite sum to each State for the purpose ot making investigations in agriculture. The funds of the Experiment Station were further supplemented by the Act of Congress of 1906, known as the Adams Act. Under the requirements of the Hatch Act the Station became a department of the College, and is conducted jointly by the College and the Department of Agriculture. The Agricultural Experiment Station embraces a central farm located near the College and five branch farms, and a corps ot trained investigators who devote their time and attention to solving the more important problems in soils, crops, animal industry, dairy- ing, horticulture, poultry, plant diseases, and entomology. More than one hundred and twenty-five projects have been approved and are being actively pursued by them. The Station conducts a large corresjwndence with farmers and others concerning ag- ricultural matters and it takes pleasure in receiving and answering questions. The Agricultural Experiment Station is always glad to welcome visitors and to show them the work in progress. The purposes of the Agricultural Experiment Station are: To carry on experiments for the improvement of agriculture which will be of service to the farmers, and to the agricultural teachers and extension workers. To demonstrate improved methods of agriculture to the farmers of the State. To publish bulletins relating to agriculture, embodying the results of experiments and to distribute them to the people of the State, thereby furthering the cause of agri- cultural progress. ?
