try school because Of the death Of his
father. After his strenuous first few
years in Montana he registered at
Montana State college in 1893 and
completed his preparatory course that
year. He then re-enrolled and earned
his B. S degree in 1907. Later he took
advanced study at Cornell and at
Michigan State college His special
fields OF study include chemistry, ge-
ology. mineralogy, soils and fertilizers.
He has been meteorologiSt for the
Montana agricultural experiment sta
ton since 1906.
During his long period of service
here his record reveals careful atten-
ton to the practical in research and
this is attributed to his practical farm
experience. His research work falls into
about eight different fields headed by
a chemical analysis of Montana soils
to determine their potential produc-
tive capacity.
Another of these are his demonstra-
tons that the accumuations of nj
trates, because Of summer following, is
a factor that is as important as mois-
ture in the production of wheat. Other
Investigations that have been and are
major contributions to agriculture are:
discovery of the nature Of the destruc-
tive action of alkali salts on hydraulic
cement: initiating, collecting, recording
and Interpreting Chronological facts;
determination of factors essential to
successful incubation of hens eggs;
study of apple tree growth as influ-
enced by soil conditions. and studies
of phosphate deficient soils in Mon
tana.
Besides his many contributions to
agriculture as q chemist, Professor
Burke has been equally active in COM
munity affairs. He was one of the
prime movers in establishing and main
tanning the Alumni Association Of
Montana State college. He was mayor
of Bozeman for four years and alder
man for five years.
