2 M ST GRIFFIN UID TO POLITICS Expert Says Experiment Sta tion Should Be Located With Agricultural College. With the opening -■ -i"ii • tie As sedation of Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Station. at the Piedmont hotel today, Atlanta !>■ ante th- host of three bodies of men r.-presenting f. rm • ing interests the fa :in institute u-'ik ers. the weathei -nen and the am c ul tural school < Xpert-. Thejr sc-sions aio held separate!.', but their interest are closely allied and many individual- are officers in two "f the organizations. J. L. Hills, of Vermont, secretary treasurer of the college- association, aroused interest today by declaring that the Georgia experiment station at Griffin was placed there for political reasons. "There are only two states in the Union where the stations are located at a different place from the agricultural college," he said. "They are Ohio and Georgia. I believe this is a mistake. The stations should be closely con nected with the colleges for the benefit of Instruction of students and for the ( ollegiate atmosphere. "The farm experiment stations con ducted by the government and the states are of great value, as they d<> i xperimental work designed to improve methods now in vogue, while the col leges find their work in instructing stu dents in recognized methods. The ulti mate object of both is a reduction in the cost of living." The association opened its first ses sion at 10 o'clock ami will continue through Friday, with sessions morning and afternoon.
