Agricultural Instructors.
The plan of reorganization of the
School of Agriculture provided for
the separation of the collegiate in
struction in agricultural chemistry
and the work of investigation in that
field of science, the two departments
thus formed oeing designated re
spectively as the department of
Agricultural Chemistry and the de
partment of ' Experimental Agricul
tural chemistry. It has already been
announced that the latter portion of
the work has been retained by Prof.
Frear, who, it is expected, will also
offer some post-graduate courses of
instruction.
It is now announced that the pro
fessorship of agricultural chemistry
has been filled by the election of
Prof. Charles Lyndall Penni - , A. M.,

America, he was made chemist to
the Delaware Station. Prof. Penny

tion of his fellows, as shown by his
successive election to the Vice

Association of Official Agi icultural
Chemists of the United States. In

ditional element of strength has been
added to the of ganization of the
School of Agriculture. He will

COLLEGE NOTES.
J. E. Staud, 'O7, who has been
with the Du Pont Powder Co. at
Emporium, Pa., visited the college
this week.
W. A. Slater received his diploma
last week and left for Port Arthur,
Texas, where he expects to work at
the oil business. He was unable to
finish last spring on account of
typhoid fever.
Now would be a good time to put
those stone steps in front of Mc-
Allister hall before winter sets in.
That is rather a sore spot to our
aesthetic eyes. . •
