experimp:\t station for agricultural machines at altenbukg. 



This station was established in 1869 in connection with the Agricul- 

 tural Academy at Altenburg. Its object is to test newly invented 

 agricultural luachinos and implements, or those already in use, from 

 both the theoretical and practical points of view, to determine their 

 fitness for the operations for which they are designed. The station 

 examines all machines and implements referred to it b}' the Minister 

 of Agriculture, or submitted by agricultural associations or private 

 parties. It is further the business of the station to supply to the agri- 

 cultural population as complete and detailed information as possible 

 on all questions relating to agricultural machines in actual use. From 

 18T(» to the present year (1900), the station has tested 241 machines. 

 The duties of the director of the station devolve upon the professor of 

 agricultural-mechanical engineering, now Prof. V. Thallmayer. 



Another experiment station for agricultural implements is located 

 at Budapest in connection with the Polytechnicum.

 the Agricultural Academ3\ Its work was at first limited to variety 

 testing, l)ut in 1895 fertilizer experiments were undertaken. Up to 

 1897 the work of the station was exclusively practical in its nature, 

 but in that year it received an appropriation for the installation of 

 pot culture experiments, and since the spring of 1899 it has been able
