70 Department of Soil Technology. 



report of July 2, 1910. Since that date the area of land assigned to this 

 use, but which was a part of the land of the University Athletic Associa- 

 tion, has been recalled. As stated m the report mentioned, there is urgent 

 need of six acres of land to be used for demonstration and instructional 

 purposes, and it is urged that it be located as near the College buildings 

 as possible. 



Laboratories under glass. — A small section of glass laboratory becomes 

 available to the department this autumn, but this does not meet our needs 

 either for instruction or invesligation. 



Staff. — The staff should be enlarged by the addition of a man whose 

 duties are entirely those of an instructor, and who shall not be called 

 on for extension work. Both the quality and the amount of instruction 

 received by the regular studeits is seriousfy impaired when the dual duties 

 of instruction and extensior work devolve on the same man.

Professor of Soil Technology.
