improvement of agriculture and rural life; and it aids in every way
possible in making effective the regulatory work and other measures
instituted by the State Board of Agriculture.

Agricultural Experiment Station.

The agricultural work of the University naturally comprises three
fields: research, instruction, and extension. The Agricultural Experi-
ment Station is the Agricultural research agency of the University,
which has for its purpose the increase of knowledge, primarily for the
direct benefit of the farmer. It is also the real source of agricultural
information for use in the classroom and for demonstrations in the
field. The Experiment Station work is supported by both State and
Federal appropriations.

The Maryland Station, in addition to the work conducted at the
University, operates a sub-station farm of fifty acres at Ridgely,
Caroline 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.
