Phone No. 250L 10-4-6-8 The institution is one pf the numerous "land grant .colleges' ' founded under the authority of the Morrill act ' of Congress in 1862 and the Hatch act of 1897. As there were no state colleges in Oregon in gave the interest upon the educa tional fund to Corvallis College, a private institution in Benton County, which was then under the control of the Methodist Episcopal Church,. South. None of the land was sold for a number of, years, and the : legislature made small annual appropria tions for ;the support of the school. In 1885 the i church voluntarily . relinquished i its claim and the state assumed con trol. The legislature of that year provided for a permanent location at Corvallis "on condition fthat the citizens "should, within four years, erect on the ; farm, containing thirty-five acres, in the immediate -vicinity of said city, known . as the ; Agri cultural College Farm; brick buildings- for the accommoda tion of said State Agricultural College at a cost of not less than $20,000." During the summer of 1887 the corner - stone of the building erected' by the ; citizens of Benton County was laid by the governor of Oregon, amid im posing ceremonies. . ; This structure, now known at the Administration Building, was the nucleus around which other buildings soon began to 1 cluster as necessity and growing interest : demanded. ,Foi a year or two there was ample roomV but as the institution- grew', more land was needed and provided, and, instead .? of U thirty-five i acres originally comprising campus and grounds, it' now owns 224 acres, and instead of one struc ture there are now eighteen. : (To be continued) : " For Sale Fine standard bred " driv ing horse, four years old.
