102 STORRS AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. 
While it would not be desirable even if it were possible for 
the Station to publish such masses of statistical detail as are 
given in the bulletin referred to, it may with propriety select 
some-of the subjects and give brief abstracts of the results. 
This is done in the two succeeding articles. : 
The practical applications of these extended inquiries have 
been set forth to some extent in the reports and bulletins of 
the Station, and thus made available to the citizens of Con- 
necticut. A much more extensive method of popularizing the 
results has been adopted by the Department of Agriculture in 
its ‘‘ Farmers’ Bulletins,’’ a considerable number of which are 
devoted to the accounts of the nutrition investigations that are 
being carried out in different parts of the United States and of 
which those of the Storrs Station form a part. ‘The work is 
thus made cooperative in its popular diffusion as well as in the ~ 
experimental details and in the more technical publications. 
The bulletins here referred to are published by hundreds of 
thousands for free distribution and can be had by citizens of 
Connecticut, as of other states, by application either to mem- 
bers of Congress or to the Secretary of Agriculture. To have an 
important share in this large enterprise is a matter of congratu- 
lation to the friends of the Station and the State of Connecticut.
