board of regents will be held at. May
ssAAtllest on January 8, continuing at the
agricultural college at Fargo on Jan
uary 9 and 10. At Fargo the board
will consider plans for the new $780,

sity and for the $685. 900 wing to the
science hall at the agricultural coll
lege. Plans and specifications have
been prepared, and If they are ac-
cepted by the board at this time; bids
will be called for at once and con-
tracts awarded early in the spring.
At n Fargo meeting also will come
up for consideration of the selection
Of a successor to Thomas Cooper, as
director Of the United States expert
ments station and Of agricultural ex-
tension work. for North Dakota.
Three plans are said to be contem-
plated: The appointment Of Vice
Director J.EH. Shepherd to be acting
director temporarily; the immediate
selection Of q successor to Director
Cooper, or a division of the duties.
and the appointment tof a distinct
director for agricultural extension
work and the supervision Of county
agent and another for the supervision
Of the agricultural experiment station
at Fargo.
The post of director has paid S.
900 per annum. "A division of the

lay Of at least $4,000 the year. y
