Ci Oree», assistant pro- fessor of horticulture, has resigned his positiou to accept that of pomo- logist in charge, of the Texas gar den, the plan'^hboratory which the Federal gcnWhnent is to establish at Fort Brown near Brownsville. His appointment was effective April i, but through the courtesy of the department of agriculture he will be allowed to remain here un til June and complete the present year's work. Mr. Green has just returned from a ten days' trip to Washington, where he was in consultation with the heads of departments that are concerned in the garden, and is en thusiastic over the work to be at tempted and the large opportunity thus given him as a scientist and practical pomologist. One great field of work will be the breeding and development of speeies in this great State, and in this he has the enthusiastic co-operation of those connected with the department at Washington as well as ample funds for carrying on the work, $ibJboo having been set aside for this work from now to July, 1908. The war department has turned over to the department of agricul ture all the ground at present re quired located at Fort Brown near Brownsville, and as Mr. Green is thoroitghly acquainted with this ' gardtn spot of Texas/ he is well prepared to enter at once.into active operations. Sufficient buildings have also been relinquished, it be ing tl*> ultimata (purpose of the war department to turn over the / entire fort, including the 600 acres of reservation, t I Work w ill begin along the line of developing improved varieties of fruit and truck crjop*already grown in- the*coast cout^try and of intro ducing new and untried varieties from foreign landp.

Mr. Kirkpatrick said before agree ing to any thing on the part of the farmers he wi$hed to hear from the. other members of the conlimittee. and that h« Would invite ’them to meet him at the Lair Grounds some time next week 1 President Moronev said last night that the management will erect a per manent agricultural budding to cost bw^reuu, SS.ODf) and $10,000, and have it Completed by the tune the ^-air begins this year. He said he in tends to mvue the A. & M. College to send a respaesentativ* to a meet ing of Mr. Kirkpatrick s committee and the directors of the State Fair to be held next week. The space formerly included in the baseball park, west of 1 vtxwiuon Hall, which was originally a«F apart for the agricultural hmlditg, trill in all 'rohahility be selected as the site of the budding, though the wishes of the fanners will be given preference . , * n *he matter of location, as also in aROmtivel th« plans Of the structure It will-also be good news to the coast country truckers to know that Dr. Howard, head of the de- part merit of entomology, has. through Mr. Green’s request, con sented lo detail one of the goveru- meut s expert entomologists to be 1 located at Brownsyille on the gar- den. j His etitire time will be devotod to the study the insects that in fest this particular region. It U also whispered that a plant diseaae expert will also be located there, i This enterprise means much t» not only this coast country, but bo the entire State, and to Hr. Green the State owes thanks for its launching. He has for five year* labored here at the college, first % assistant and then *s associate pro fessor of horticulture, and has done valuable work. He comes from the Michigan Agricultural College, but was one year mstructor in horu ticulturo in the University of Illi- uois and four years chief inspector of orchards and nurseries for Illi nois before coming to Texas and falling in love with this great State making up his mind to devote the rest of his life here, where oppor, tunity for prograM jakd develop, ment is of such a character that it fairly takes a man of Such setenti* fic mind.off his feet with the anx iety to do and accomplish things. His ability and worth are well re* cognized by the people among whom he goes, who will be as glad ■to get him as the college is sorry h> lose him.-—Houston Post. Mi Hi J.
