STATION FINANCES. 
The funds available for Station work have not been increased 
during the past year. We receive one-half of the Hatch appro- 
priation, namely, $7,500 annually, and $1,800 a year from the 
state. The printing of the Station bulletins and annual reports 
is paid for by the State Treasurer out of state funds. : 
With the small amount of money available for Station work 
it seems wise to pursue the policy which we have adopted in the 
past, namely, to confine our attention to a few lines of work 
and do this work most thoroughly. 
In carrying out this policy we have had the hearty coopera- 
tion of the Board of Trustees of the Connecticut Agricultural 
College and of those officers of the College who have in any 
way been associated with the Station and its work.
