  Qlfijl Director of the Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station, having succeedetl
      `- Dr. Scovell in that position about the Hrst of November, IOIZ, during nearly all
A     of which time he was also Dean of the College of Agriculture. His connection
    with the Experiment Station began ]uly 1st, 1<)II, as head of the l)epartment o'
  ?‘j*jl Chemical Research, then just organized. He filled the chair of Chemistry in tht
I     University of Yirginia from 1909 to 1911, succeeding Dr. Mallctt; was chief oi
    ~ the Division of Chemistry of the Hygienic Laboratory, United States Publit

    senior in chemistry at the University of Kentucky.
I       \\'e cannot recount Dr. Kastle`s achievements in chemistry here nor list hi~
    ‘ numerous scientific publications. Perhaps his most striking work was that nit
    oxidases, begun while he was Professor of Chemistry at old "State," this
    being at the time a new subject, bttt one which has proved to be of the highesi
    importance in biological chemistry. It was as a teacher that most of us knew him;
  itil? best. He possessed in the highest degree that ittborn faculty of inspiring his
      students with the desire to think out and work out for themselves the probleni~
      placed before them to the uttertnost analysis.
