Sept. 25, 1900 Dr. L. H. Pammel, Ames Iowa. My Dear Prof. Pammel:- It is always pleasing to me to note the progress made in your department. I do not know of any department of the institution that has made as permanent and satisfactory progress as yours. Despite the many disadvantages under which you have labored, is one of the best tests as to the value of the person in charge, and I look forward to a still greater progress in the future. With best wishes to yourself and family, I remain, Yours most truly, Geo. W. Carver
