 COLLEGE NOTES. 



A greenhouse, 24x33 feet, has just 

 been completed for the agronomy de- 

 partment. It is the first greenhouse 

 that the agronomy department has had 

 the use of. In it students will be able 

 to carry on experiments with soils, 

 fertilizers, hays and grains, etc. The 

 house is to be heated from the college 

 power plant. The construction was in 

 charge of Hitchings & Co. 



A Plymouth man has recently in- 

 vented a sure cure for all diseases of 

 fruit trees. The name of this medicine 

 is "Dextrogermiform." The inventor 

 Is demonstrating on the young Clark 

 orchard at the college. The experi- 

 ment is creating considerable interest 

 among fruit growers.
