June, 1940] AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH IN N. H. 9 



In agricultural engineering, a graduate student was added part- 

 time in the person of Benjamin J. French. Kenneth Anderson as a 

 graduate assistant, and Mrs. B. G. Sanborn as a laboratory techni- 

 cian, were added part-time to assist with bacteriology, now organized 

 in the botany department. In poultry, Richard Ford as assistant 

 technician swells the force that handles the ever-increasing pullorum 

 testing. The usual replacements in graduate students have been 

 made. 



The absence of the extension agronomist, to do graduate work, 

 has made some reallocation of tasks among the remaining personnel 

 necessary. Similarly, the work of Albert E. Tepper has been suit- 

 ably absorbed in the poultry department during Mr. Tepper's absence 

 for graduate study.
