Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
The University Fruit Farm may be considered as a substation or detached portion of the Nebraska Experiment Station.

Supervision of this property rests with the Department of Horticulture of the Nebraska College of Agriculture. This circular has been prepared with the view of furnishing visitors to the farm with a brief outline of the experimental projects. Further information is available from either the local foreman or from the Department. Visitors are always welcome and helpful suggestions are solicited.
