DEPARTMENT OF HORTICULTURE 



I. TEACHING. 



The teaching of the Department of Horticulture classed under 

 the head of University work is being organized into four main divi- 

 sions, as follows: 



I. Division of Graduate Work. 



-2. Division of Pomolog)\ 



3. Division of Floriculture. 



4. Division of Olericulture. 



The divisions of Floriculture and Olericulture have not been defi- 

 nitely separated, but it is hoped that an independent organization 

 of these phases of the work will be effected before very long. 



All divisions of the Department are growing. During the past 

 five years ten to fifteen students have been registered annually in 

 either major or minor work for advanced degrees in the Depart- 

 ment of Horticulture. The demand for these men has been so 

 keen, however, that they are frequently drawn into service before 

 their courses of study have been completed. 



The undergraduate courses have been increased and enlarged in 

 scope in accordance with the present-day needs. The Department 

 of Horticulture, in common with the other departments, has secured 

 a fair proportion of the increased attendance. Pomology, Floricul- 

 ture and Olericulture are reported by Professors Wilson and Jud- 

 son respectively. 



A. — Pomology.
