every branch of agricultural endeavor
| in the state by means of tests, ex-
periments and the collection of data
/ in cooperation with the Oregon eS-
pertinent station at the college, with
the dissemination of the resultant
knowledge throughout the state.
Although the movement has been
started by the short course students
of 1911 at the college, membership is
open not only to all other college stu
dents, now and in the future, but also
to every progressive farmer in the
state who desires to aid in advancing
the agricultural interests of oregon

partment of horticulture at the col
