    Dear President Donovan:

    Enclosed is check for $100.00, contribution by Mr. Wal-
    ter J. Salmon of Mereworth Farm, which, as he states,
    is "in appreciation of some information that we have
    been kindly given from time to time by the Experiment
    Station".   This generous and spontaneous gift for carry-
    Ing on the work of the Experiment Station is most hearten-
    ing.   I wish to recommend that it be placed in trust
    for the use of the Ex-periment Station, for such work as
    the director may deem desirable,

                                     Sincerely yours,

                                     (Signed) Thomas Cooper
                                               Dean and Director
