Science OUGHT To
STUDY farm NEEDS
Jardine Gives His Views On
Agricultural Development
By W. NJ. Jarline
Secretary OF Agriculture

written for The United Press)
Washington. June 20 (UP)-The
agriculture resources Of the United
States have been developed with
greater rapidly perhaps than those
of any other country in the world.
Both the federal and state govern
ments devote millions Of dollars each
year to the study OF diverse farm
problems ranging from soil analysis
and plant and animal diseases to
problems Of cooperation and market
ing.
But in spite OF all that has been
done and is being done. believe
there is a pronounced need for great
er efforts in the field Of pure science.
Il field In which the United States Is
far behind many European countries.
We have made astonishing prog
ress in applying the results Of pure
science, but in order that this use
full work may go on undated we
need the fundamental facts that can
be obtained only by a wide and deep
interest in scientific work which is
HUI ucCCcSdLuy OiECClcu lOWdIu tuc
solution Of any particular agricul-
tural or industrial problem.
There is big work ahead for young
men interested in pure science and
the basic facts they discover will
shape and guide the agriculture OF
the future as well as industry.
The great scientific era of the past
century seems to be expanding into
a still greater one. In chemistry, in
physics. in biology, in agriculture
more discoveries are now being
made in day than were made in
months 20 years ago.
America. however. going ahead by
leaps in applied science, has not
been doing her share in this funda-
mental work Of pure science. Out
