Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 38, Number 45, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 February 1906 — Pardue to Get Appropriation. [ARTICLE]

Pardue to Get Appropriation.

The house, by practically a un animous vote has passed the bill introduced last December by Representative Adams of Wisconsin providing for increased annual appropriations for all of the agricultural experimental stations throughout the country, one of which is the station at Purdue University at Laiayette. These stations were established by the Hatch act of 1887, under the operation of which forty-eight states and territories are at the present time each receiving $15,000 annually for their agricultural experimental stations.
