Abstract
STUDENTS of agricultural science in all countries will learn with regret of the death on October 6 of Dr. Cyril G. Hopkins, the distinguished head of the department of agronomy in the University of Illinois. Dr. Hopkins had for the past twelve months been studying the exhausted, soils of Greece under the auspices of the American Red Cross. He had written his report, seen it translated into Greek, and received a decoration from the King of the Hellenes. He was on his way home, but when three days out from Gibraltar was suddenly struck down with congestion of the brain, with malarial complications.
