resigned October 1, to take charge of the agricultural de- 

 partment connected with Mt. Ilernion School, Northficld, 

 Mass. Mr. W. K. Hepburn has been appointed to succeed 

 him. While the writer is always pleased to see the young 

 men connected with this division called to more responsible 

 positions, it must be acknowledged that such changes seri- 

 ously interfere with the work of the station. As a rule, it is 

 believed it would be better economy to pay larger salaries, 

 and retain the services of those who have proved themselves 

 efficient workers.
