He later worked as assistant in the Ohio Ex- periment Station and with the Govern- ment Soil Survey for the U. S. De- partment of Agriculture.

He is a member of the Alpha Zeta fraternity, Alpha Gam- l ma Rho fraternity, Sigma Xifra-ternity and the Alpha Tau Alpha fraternity. n1+:..xN FRl+lDI'IlilCIi W. 'rAYLoi:, is. s. Like ,all Colleges of agriculture in this country, that of New Hampshire has had an interesting and re- markable growth. A half century ago there was no body of agricultural knowledge to teach, there were very few students and fewer teachers. For example, when New Hampshire College was first established our dear old Professor Scott taught stock feeding, and he never milked a cow in his life. People laughed at the idea of ia college training for a farmer. Now our experts tell us that there is as much education in the study of a beet root as in the study of a Greek root. As an index of the value of the training in the College of Agriculture, we can point to the splendid salaries which some of our graduates are receiving and to many successful careers of farmers and business men throughout the State. The College of Agriculture aims to give a general education and scientific training to students in the various phases of commercial agri- culture. Also, to fit young men for positions of responsibility as re- search workers, extension service men, and teachers of agriculture. The value of the training received in the College of Agriculture lies in the enhancement of the earning capacity of its graduates and in making them bigger and better citizens for our rural communities. Scientific training for a young farmer is more important today than ever before. This fact is being appreciated by our country boys. The question now is not how can the farm boy afford to get an education, but can he afford not to. 19
