In the new tariff commission we have
added another fundamentally of OBJ

The trade commission substitutes coun-

practical problems OF agriculture are
found TO have already been solved
generations ago by largo groups OF

In previous decades the agricultural
investigator largely concerned himself
with the study of how TO accomplish

or fruit. The farm management In
