natures reason for It, nor explain the
thousand other seeming mysteries of
the soil. Science has done and is doing
that for him. 1t Is experimenting for

round, and teaching him the why and
the wherefore. Uncle Sam Is backing
science in this matter, and the farmer
Is getting the benefit without cost. The

are sent out by the Department of Ag-

Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Minnesota,
Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New
York, Ohio, Tennessee, Vermont, West
Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. In

and Washington. Separate institutions
of this sort are maintained for cOlored
students in Alabama, Delaware Flor
ida, Mississippi, North Carolina, South
Carolina and Virginia. Massachusetts
has the only college whose curriculum
is wholly devoted to agriculture
In the universities in which courses
in agriculture are maintained the gen
eral tendency is to make this course
correspond in scope and thoroughness
with those given in the other depart
ments, to divide the instruction in agri-
culture among an increasing number
of specialists, and to provide buildings
and apparatus and illustrative ma
terlal on scale in keeping with those
in other branches. At the same time
efforts are making to bring the uni
versity in close touch with the masses
