Agriculturist Magazine Future Plans Indefinite There are no definite plans yet, but everything is being done to have the Agriculturist Magazine published next year, said Roland Bing, manager of Student Publica tions. This year’s Agriculturist ceased publication after one issue because of a lack of funds. A low subscrip tion rate coupled with a dry year throughout Texas was against the continuation of the publication, said Bing.
