It has now become our privilege
to condpet for theoe columns, la
the future, highly interesting ma
terial gathered from one of oar
very important divisions rf the
College—-the Agricultural Experi
ment Station. This division, not

front-door lock when you’ve arriv
ed along about two in the morning,
when it's important not to swaken
the family—if you know what 1
moan. In fact, it never quit# click
ed for me until this summer, when
I read “The Economy of Abus
dance", by Stuart Chase.
If you'll read Chase’s "Economy
of A bunds ace”—either the book of
that name, or the article in Bar
par’s for March, you’ll have at
least on# explanation of what the
Depression is all shoot. It may not
tmfc'out to be the correct expla
nation, but it’s probably as near
to the truth as any.
Anyhow, that’s my best Mea of
ithi.
I’ll be glad to print your AS
teemed Editor's (David Tisinger’i
in this column next weak—or di<
ho have one?
While Pm on the subject, let ms
recommend Stuart Chase in'gen
eral. He is an entertaining fellow,
and, whatever real economists may
think of him, ha seems (to a non-
economist at least) to talk common
sense. Hare art some of his books:
(1) Men and Machines, a lively
account of the effect of the com
ing of modern machinery on peo
ple’s lives and, happiness.
(2) The Tragedy of Wests,
showing how much poorer we era
than we need to bo.
(8) A New Deal, the best book I
know of for making allusions to
“Fascism”, "Communism”, and so
forth, rsally mean something to
you.
It will, undoubtedly, bo a relief
to you to know that this column
wiH not be filled exclusively by the.
present writer, but wiU from time
to time contain remarks from var
ious shining intellectual lights
arnon^ the Aggies. Two or three
have already promised some gems
of thought
No, you're wrong—(they art not
taking a course under me!
The Big Fall order of books has
not come to the Library yet, but a
few have straggled in. Among
these, I recommend: “I Went to
Pit Co liege”, by Lauren Gilfillan
itself, contribute* very largely to
the promotion of hotter manai
ent in agricultural circles.
Constant experiment enables the
director, Hr- A- B Conner, and Mr.
A. D. Jackson, Chief of Publics
tions, to enlighten those who par-
sue agriculture as their life-work
Texas repriunti a very groat ag
ricultural productive unit, and wo
are proud to say that this station
is outstanding for its many varied
and interesting contributions rela
tive to agriculture.
There are many things conducted
behind the doors of this experi
mental station, which wo fool. Is
of groat interest to everyone;
therefore, we will attempt to giro
in sketchy form the achievements
of this organisation during the past
months. In wookly installments to
follow we will, through the cour
tesy of Mr. Conner, offer for your
enjoyment intensely interesting
‘tad instructive researches.
These research facts, era but a
daily occurrence within the Sta-
tien, but to us they are everything
that savours of tho new, norri,
and important.
In quoting Mr. Connor lot us
say that ho has felt that the cadets
have long needed such a column as
this hopes to be. Mr. Connor soys,
“Students should become hotter
acquainted with our work, since it
is relative to many fields; for ex-
ample, our soil survey amps are
Used not only by farmers but also
by highway engineer! and even by
oil drillsra.” riT
In the future, With the kind as
sistance of tho various staff m
bora, we will attempt to keep you
constantly in touch with tho assay
in agriculture by
|«f successive weekly In
stallments.
