Is there any more important kind of work for our agricultural colleges, and for our state experimental stations ? I urge this matter upon your thoughtful consideration. A NOBLE OCCUPATION. The business of fruit-growing is one of the noblest occupations of the world, if carried on with a faithful spirit. The results of our work con- tribute directly and powerfully to the betterment of mankind. We min- ister to the health and the moral stature of the community. I would have every horticulturist r...egard his vocation with becoming pride. We work with the great forces of nature. We form alliances with the sunshine and the rain, and the secret affinities of the soil. We manipulate the occult en- ergies of chemistry. We join hands with Providence to produce our har- vests. The American fruit-grower, like the American farmer, should hold his head proudly, but reverently, as the best man of the world. As I look at it, there is no man on earth that outranks the well equipped and com- petent American farmer and American fruit-farmer.
