There have been many changes on the Campus since Pro- fessor Gulley's arrival in 1894. There was not at that time a brick building on the college grounds, and not a building of any kind south of the site of Gold Hall. The college did not even own any land south of that site. All evergreens and shrubs and nearly all other transplanted trees, now on the Campus, have been planted since. Not any of the present drives and walks then existed. Professor Gulley's entrance into college life was accident- al. He was called into it without solicitation or expectation on his part, and he had no intention of continuing very long, when he started. I-Ie states, hvowever, that his twenty years of practical experience was his most valuable asset for his after years of teaching. Professor Gulley is not a writer of books, but he has been working for several years, upon a classification and description of apple varieties. As he wished to make as many of the descriptions as possible from personal study of the kinds, it has takenl much time to gather a wide range of vari- eties. The work, however, has now been carried so far, that he will put it in the hands of a publisher in the near future. It is about the only branch of horticulture, upon which nothing has been published for many years. ri' 7 ' A 'f' 'c'q 00' QQ -0' ' -f.. ,La Q. .a 9
