Abstract
PROF. ROBEBT WALLACE, professor of agriculture in the University of Edinburgh from 1885 until 1922, died at Kincardine-on-Forth on January 16 at the age of eighty-five years. The chair of agriculture, the oldest in the country, goes back to 1790, and Wallace and his three predecessors in office, all men of mark, between them filled it for 132 years, a rather remarkable record.
