Abstract
WE are now, we hope, approaching the realization of peace and of that kind of atmosphere in which biological work, and more especially research, can hope to flourish once more. We have every reason for believing that the next few years will see many changes—changes in our educational system at all levels, with resultant effects upon students who take up an applied biological profession, and changes in our agriculture which will lead to a different emphasis upon instruction and research in biological subjects. With these changes impending, it may therefore be opportune at this time to look back over the years of one's experience, and see how far the old system appeared to be satisfactory and where on the other hand it did not give the results which might have been expected.
