    l A Y The death of Mr. C. L. Curtis caused a serious loss in our Sta--
    .` " y tion stait. He was a man of much more than ordinary ability
  _ j   l in his line, very capable, accurate, and thorough in his work.
  ‘y , His place will be hard to {ill. At the meeting of the Board of
  , t ‘ I . Control in April, the following resolution was passed :
  i "ResoZvcd, That we desire to record our high appreciation
  `~ of the faithful, accurate. and efiioient manner in which he dis-
    · ’ charged his duties while connected with the Experiment Sta-
  ·   l . tion. He was a painstaking. systemamatic and untiring worker,
  v_ .4   qualities which fitted him eminently for .the duties assigned _
  _, · r l him, and by his modest and unassuming manners and sterling _
    · worth of character, endeared himself to all with whom he came- ng
  ‘·*     in contact." tin
