VOLUME V. AUGUSTA KENNEBEC JOURNAL PRINT r9ro ANNUAL REPORT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF- MAINE FOR THE YEAR ENDING JULY !, !909 REPORTS OF THE TRUSTEES, PRESIDENT AND TREASURER DIRECTORY OF ALUMNI AUGUSTA KENNEBEC JOURNAL PRINT 1910 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES To the Honorable Governor a11d Executive Council of JJ1 aine: The Trustees of the University of Maine submit their forty-first annual report, with reports of the President and Treasurer. Full information in regard to the general and financial condition of the University will be found in the reports of President Fellows and Treasurer Stetson. The past year, as in former years, has seen a steady and constant growth in the number of students and in the work done at the Univer­ sity. I am pleased to state that there have been no changes in the Board of Trustees during the past year. This year Prof. Aubert has followed Prof. Fernald on the retired list, and both, through the earnest efforts of President Fellows, ha-ve been put on the pension list of the Carnegie Foundation. Prof. Fernald's retirement was spoken of in our last report. Prof. Aubert gave to the University many years in the chemical depart­ ment. He bore an international reputation in this subject and his de­ partment boasts of many graduates high in their profession. With the undergraduates he was eyer fair and had the respect and esteem of all, and brought his department to a very high degree of efficiency. During thr period covered by this report there have been many changes in the faculty, which have had a tendency to strengthen the instructing force. A full account of these changes \Yill be found in Pres. Fellows' report. The sudden death of Prof. J. 'vV. Carr was a severe blow not only to the department of German of which he was the head, but to the Uni­ versity as a whole. Although not one of the oldest professors in the institution, he had, during his stay, endeared himself in the hearts of all, and by his work had raised his department to a state of efficiency that was second to none in the country. Since last year the agricultural building has been completed, and that department has now taken up its work in the new building. The in­ creased facilities for handling this work came none too soon, as this field of work has broadened to an almost unlooked-for degree. The in­ creased interest in agriculture throughout this state cannot be too closely connected with the work of this institution, and with these added facili­ ties we feel that we can give to the farmer the privileges that are right­ fully his by support given the University. To be able to do this and show the state an adequate return for the money appropriated, is another stride toward the goal for which we are working. The last legislature made an appropriation for a new dormitory, for which the plans have been completed and contracts let. The work will 4 UNI\'ERSlTY OF :\L\INE. be begun at once and rushed to completion at the earliest possible mo­ ment. This new building will accommodate many students, besides hav­ ing increased dining accommodations and club-rooms. This will fill a long-felt want, as many of the men have been obliged in the past to live in Orono and wa:lk to and from their recitations. 'Ne feel that this ad­ dition to the University will bring the students closer together and make their relations and work much more successful than in the past. vVhile during the past few years we have had many improvements on the campus, there are still many pressing needs. Among the most im­ perative are new barns for the stock, greenhouses for the horticultural dtpartment and a new chemical laboratory. The need of these new buildings is fully explained in President Fellows' report. The law school in its new quarters has had another of its successful years. Under Dean Walz this branch has grown rapidly both in prestige ar,d numbers. The attendance of the college has kept up its phenomenal growth, and this year there is a greater number of students than in any previous year. The health of both the faculty and students has been excellent. In previous years special attention has been given to beautifying the campus, and this work should be continued as fast as funds will warrant in order to make it as attractive and pleasing to the students and com­ munity as possible. The Board of Trustees, in reviewing the wonderful growth of the l'niversity, cannot nrge too strongly the importance of providing for its future growth, with sufficient appropriation to make this institution what it should be, a credit to our state, and to rank with the strongest of the land grant colleges.

EVENING POST ASSOCIATION 1895 " TO THE PUBLIC FOR the tenth consecutive time The Post offers to the pubHc its handsome and complete compendium of the State Government, General Assembly, Delegation in Congress, and many other subjects in which our citizens are directly interested. The increasing popularity of this series is a sufficient proof of its merit, and so widely and favorably is it now known throughout Connecticut that the publication has come to be regarded as " the standard —a fact appreciated by the highest class of advertisers. In acknowledgment of the general patronage of the past and as better indicating the magnitude which the present business has attained to, the pub- lishers have this year adopted a new and attractive title for the book, which clearly explains its purpose. All of the old features have, however, been retained, several new ones added, and the volume made considerably larger than ever before. Mechanical improvements in the form of superior press-work, fine paper and tasteful binding, can be seen at a glance ; while in the im- portant matter of illustrations, it is safe to say that perfection has been reached according to the present stage of the art.

Although brains and time are more important than money, the latter is also essential; and our society should take prompt steps to see to it that the support of research in gene- tics is substantially expanded and that it is stabilized." Last year a distinguished scientist on the staff of the Biological Labora- tory resigned to join a privately endowed foundation.
