NEW APPOINTMENTS AT CORNELL 

 UNIVERSITY. 



Dr. Beverly T. Galloway has been appointed Dean of 

 the New York State College of Agriculture. He succeeds 

 Prof. L. H. Bailey. 



Dr. Galloway, who is 50 years of age, has been engaged 

 in floricultural, horticultural and agricultural pursuits 

 since he has been a young man, and has been connected 

 for many years with the United States Department of 

 Agriculture, rising to the position of Assistant Secretary 

 of Agriculture, to which he was appointed about a year 

 ago, and which position he has just resigned to assume the 

 duties of his new appointment. 



He possesses all the qualifications to fit him for his new 

 office, and Cornell University is to be congratulated on the 

 selection made by its board of trustees in the appointment 

 of Dr. Galloway. 



At a recent meeting of the Agricultural Council of 

 Cornell University two appointments were made to the 

 staff in the Department of Floricultiu-e. These were the 

 appointment of David Lumsden, of the New Hampshire 

 College of Agriculture, as assistant professor of floricul- 

 ture, and Clark L. Thayer, of the Massachusetts Agricul- 

 tural College, as assistant in investigation. Mr. Lumsden 

 comes to the university splendidly fitted for the work. 

 He is a man of wide experience, of pleasing personality, 

 and speaks easily and clearly. He is a graduate of the 

 Sleaford Collegiate School of London, England, and also 

 of the Veitchian School of Horticulture where he 

 specialized in floriculture. For a number of years he 

 was employed in glass houses on private estates in Eng- 

 land, and for two years before coming to .\merica was 

 in charge of the glass-house department for growing 

 flowers and fruits and also in charge of the room and 

 table decorations for the Duke of Westminster, from 

 whom he holds a testimonial of high efficiency. Since 

 coming to this country nineteen years ago, Mr. Lumsden 

 has spent thirteen years in practical work on commercial 

 places and si.x years at the New Hampshire Agricultural 

 College where has has been in charge of the work in 

 floriculture 



Mr. Thayer is a native of Enfield, Mass.. and a 

 graduate of the Massachusetts Agricultural College in 

 the class of 1913. During the past year he has been do- 

 ing graduate work at the Massachusetts Agricultural 

 College and has assisted in the teaching. The short 

 courses during the past winter were under his direct 

 supervision. \Ir. Thayer will study for an advanced de- 

 gree at Cornell and assist in investigational work. 



The staflf of the Department of Floriculture at Cornell 

 is now the largest of any in the United States. It con- 

 sists of the following: Professor Edward A. White, 

 head of the department; Dr. .\. C. Beal. professor of 

 investigation: David Lumsden, assistant professor; 

 Koland H. Patch, instructor ; .\lfred C. Hottes, instructor 

 in investigation; Miss Lua A. Minns, in.structor: Clark 

 L. Thaver, assistant in investigation ; Miss Julia Z. Kelly,
