STATE AGRICULTURAL AND INDUSTRIAL COL

This Institution, located at Lake City,
is designed to become the capstone of
the States educational superstructure, af-
fording its students an opportunity for
complete classical education; or, if chosen,
a full specific education in the theory of
agriculture, practically illustrated on the
farm, in the orchard and grove, together
with agricultural chemistry, practically
applied.
In addition to this, industrial training
in knowledge of the use of the me-
chanic forces, tools and implements used
in wood, metal and stone work and struc-
ture, is impaired very fully in course of
two and three years, while under the re-
quirements of Congress, military science,
tactics and mathematics are thoroughly
taught, giving each student the advan-

which pupils from any school in it may,
as soon as graded up to point in study
and attainment necessary to enter upon
a High School Course, enter and be
finished for business pursuits or for en-

counties have already accomplished the
establishment of these, and they are do

The Boards of Public instruction are
appointed by the State Board of Educa-

are elected by the people in popular
vote. Each school has Board of Trus-
tees of not more than five members, who
are selected by the patrons of the schools,
and suggested to the County Superin-
terdent, who nominates them TO the
County Board, who appoints them. Their
duties are personal supervision of their
respective schools, under the direction of
the County Board of Public Instruction.
1t will be seen at once that the system is
simple in it's organization, easy Of admin
