APPROPRIATION FOR DIXON SPRINGS EXPERIMENT STATION (20) The operation of the Dixon Springs branch of the Agricultural Experiment Station is financed in part by income from sales of livestock and other products of the experimental program being carried on there. The income has exceeded the budget estimates for the current fiscal year, but expenditures have also been somewhat higher than anticipated. The Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station recommends that $25,000 of excess receipts be appropriated to the Dixon Springs Experiment Station for operating expenses during the current fiscal year. I concur. On motion of Mrs. Holt, this appropriation was made by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Fornof, Mr. Grange, Mr. Herrkk, Mr. Hickman, Mrs. Holt, Mr. Johnston, Mr. Livingston, Mr. Nickell, Mrs. Watkins; no, none; absent, Mf. Megran, Mr. Stevenson.

The old sidewalks were destroyed in the construction of a distribution line from the steam plant to the Apartment Building. Payment will be from funds available to the Physical Plant Department for the operation and maintenance of the steam plant. I concur and recommend that the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board be authorized to execute this contract. On motion of Mr. Nickell, this contract was authorized.
