The department of Agriculture and Horticulture stands at the bottom. The Engineers, the students of Economics, and of Eng¬ lish, will all tell you that. And we of the department acknowledge that it is true. Not, however, in the sense of inferiority, but at the bottom, as the stone foundation is at the bottom of the great sky¬ scrapers; or as the man with the ball is in the football scrim¬ mage. A sort of essential basis upon which all future progress develops. So then, it is for this reason that we are so de¬ sirous of perfecting the science of Agriculture; in order that there might be a demand for railroads, irrigating ditches, public servants, and school teachers; thus giving our friends of the more popular departments an opportunity to develop along their narrowed lines.

DR. A E. EGGE H. C. SAMPSON ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE. The department of English Language and Literature in the Wash¬ ington State College is one of the broadest courses offered in the in¬ stitution. Here you can learn everything about English, from how to write a paper that must have an extra wide margin to contain all the red ink marks, or a debate that would put a Webster to shame, to an oration that would draw “iron tears down Pluto ' s cheek; you will learn more about English fiction than the master novelist knows, more old English than you can find room for in your head; and more about the great masterpieces than their authors knew; but, seriously, no one can be called an ideal college man who does not have an intelligent knowledge of the use of his mother tongue. More than this, by the critical and appreciative study of our masters of literature, one is brought into a broad sympathy with the world of thought, where are opened to him vast fields of enjoyment and companionship. In such boundless realms one lays the foundation, with the aid of those master workmen, Egge the wise, and Samp¬ son the eloquent, upon which a great structure of pleasure and bet¬ terment may be built. 2 4
