University Agricultural Experiment Station.

Abstract

Hence, I deem it both logical and expedient that in point of time the Agricultural Experiment Station should precede lectures from a Chair of Agriculture; the former will pave the way for the latter. The main purpose of an Experiment Station would be RESEARCH WORK, and here, with deference, I suggest that purists may have to revise the conventional limits they have ascribed to research, and to recognise that research is still research, even though undertaken for purely utilitarian ends. Research work at an Agricultural Station, although not exclusively so, would have a strong utilitarian bent; and I hazard the opinion that it could but add lustre to any institution with which it happened to be connected.
