Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The University of California and Its Future
The existing departments must be fostered and developed. Among them are included some that rank already with the best in the country. New departments cannot be established to the detriment or hindrance of what already exists. The department of agriculture is already highly e?icient and under superb leadership. California will justly demand that noth ing be spared in the development of this work. Especially in relation to the culture of fruit-trees (pomology) and horticul ture, provision for extension of the work must be provided. A department of forestry ought to be established at the first 0p portunity. What does California need more for its naked hills and its thirsty brook-beds? What does the whole Western slope of the continent need more for its desert stretches? Ultimately this must be a problem for the national govern ment to deal with, but California must lead and point the way.
