1*K  The location of the temporary classroom buildings in the Forestry Hursery has made it necessary:

formerly used for Plant Pathology for the plant disease experiments directly south of Shaw

Path, experi

mental field 
this area usable it is necessary to install a 10-inch well, purchase a oO-h.p. gasoline engine,\ 
install the necessary irrigation lines*  The estimated cost of this project is as follows; 

Cost of 10-inch'well, ^00 feet 
Cost of well turbine pump

15*  Request from the City Attorney of South Haven that the State Board of Agriculture sell a 

narrow strip to the City of South Haven for street;purposes..: 

Inasmuch as there is a stipulation in the deed to this land when it was conveyed to the 
State Board that it not be used for other purposes than the experiment station, and since 
this area is primarily for the convenience of an adjoining landowner so that he maybe able 
to sell his property to better advantage, it is recommended that the request be denied* 

On motion of Mr. Brody, seconded by Miss Jones, it was voted to turn down the above request. 

16-  We are advised by the Detroit Trust Company that as of January 2, 19^7, Mr. Harry A. Fee

benefit of the Hidden Lake Q-ardens.  The securities in this trust as of February 25 have a 
ledger value of $92,474-32 and a market value of $186,20½.  This is Trust 20100 of the 
Detroit Trust Company.  Mr.. Pee has not advised us other than through this indirection of 
the creation of this trust. 

On motion of Mr. Brody, seconded by Mr. Berkey, it was, voted to instruct the President to express 
to Mr. ?~e the sincere appreciation of the Board for his generosity and assure him that his wishes  j 
in regard to Hidden Lake -ardens will be carried out to the letter.

c.  We have not as yet received from. Mr.. Calder the present estimated costs of Landon, 

Yakeley, and Gilchrist Halls* 

After discussion with Mr. Cress, it is suggested that the amount of money required to com- 
plete these projects be taken out of the $£000,000 set up for the Union Building.  In 
August it will be necessary to arrange permanent financing for $3,800,000 of this borrowing 
which was on a temporary basis, and at that time the amount of the loan can be increased to 
provide, funds needed to complete all of the projects included in this program.
