AMHERST  LETTER. 

S ince  retiring,  two  years  ago,  I 
made  my  fourth  visil to  the college 
last  mo nth  (Augus t),  this  time  ac· 
companied by two grandsons,J ames 
Stannard  Baker  and  Roger  Denio 
':,Iker.  '1 he re was an unpreced e nted 
dearth  of  professors  ami  students 
during  OUf  visit,  hut the  q uiet cam 
pus  was  clothed  in  green, which  in 
numerous  places show ed  at  a  glance 
that  the  force  of  the  horticultural 
department  has  been  making  im 
provements  by  helping  nature,  by 
CUlling  out  uns ightly  objects  and 
adding S01l1('  that were needed.  Th e 
difference  between a  botan ist  and  II 
is  this:  The  horti 
horticultu rist 
cu lturist  will remove  a  t ree o r  shru b 
from  the  c ampus  if  it  is  sb~,bb}', 
even  if  it  is  the  last specimen of tile 
kind,  while  the  hotanist  would  let 
it Sland  till  mioth.:r  good  specime n 
hHd  heen  sturtet!  in  some  place  un· 
objectionable. 

While  L.  Ii. Haily  was  professor 
of  horticulture,  he  planted, north  of 
the housc now occu pied by Professor 
Eustace,  onc t ree  each  of  two  kinds 
of  walnuts  nativ.:  to  Asia,  and  a 
s ingle  pec:l!I,  aU  of  wh ic h  are 
heOilthy  and  fruiting 
this  yea r.

It  is almost 11  crirne
