THE BOARD GF ADMINISTRATION Our governing board rejoices with lyou, your stu' I dent body, and faculty on the continued growth of your institution. The substantial place of an institution like yours in the economy of the state is no longer a matter for debate. The place of the scientist and the economist in agriculture as in other practical arts has been more clearly demonstrated in the last decade than ever before. Chemistry, which not so long ago was considered an abstract science, is now recognized as the most practical of all sciences. Plant breeding we now know to be the basis of all practical developments in plant species. Home economics is rapidly coming into its own. The work of your experiment stations and extension department grows in appreciation among those interested in the development of our principal state resource, agriculture. Your economists are called to Washington to give expert advice in the formulation of tariffs affecting agricultural products. Your needs in the building line are coming to be better understood by our legislative bodies. I am satisfied that your college has a brilliant future. Your alumni body will continue to take increased pride and interest in its development as the years go by. May every success attend your efforts. R. B. Murphy I l Palmer Kitchen - Church Diehl Page 17
