The Maryland Station, in addition to the work conducted at the University, operates a sub-station farm of fifty acres at Ridgely, Caro- line County, and a farm of about sixty acres at Upper Marlboro for tobacco investigations. Experiments in co-operation with farmers are conducted . at many different points in the State. These tests consist of studies with soils, fertilizers, crops, orchards, insect and plant disease control, and stock feeding. The results of the Experiment Station work during the past quar- ter of a century have developed a science of agriculture to teach, and have laid a broad and substantial foundation for agricultural develop- ment. The placing of agricultural demonstrations and extension work on a national basis has been the direct outgrowth of the work of the Experiment Stations.
