habits of harmful weeds; methods OF
destroying each class of weeds.
During the second three months Of
the first year the boys study agri-
cultural botany, farm accounts, mu-
sic, comparative physiology, study Of
breeds, carpentry, drawing farm
buildings), blacksmithing, military
drill. breeds of horses, gymnasium
work.
The student masters farm accounts,
that he may know at any time the
profit or loss of any department of his
business and be thus enabled to plan
intelligently.
Study Applied Physiology
Applied physiology is studied during
this first year. Attention is given to
diseased and innutritious foods, to food
adulterations, and to narcotics. Acct
dental injuries, including those caused
by poiscns, are considered that the stu
dent may know what to do in emer-
gehcies. Matters of home and personal
hygiene are interviewer with the physf-
illogical work. Animal physiology, with
reference to farm animals, is not neg
lected.
The study OF breeds" covers a dis
cussion of the characteristics of the
leading pedigreed breeds of beef cat
tle," sheep and swine adapted to North
western conditions the environment
TO which each breed is specially suited.
The aim III teaching breeds Of horses
is to familiarize the students with the
types of horses best representing the

MES. Students are instructed practi-
cally in the schools of the soldier and
the company, extended order and mill
tary calisthenics. The school battalion
is considered part of the corps of
cadets at the state university, and is
instructed accordingly by an officer of
the regular army.
To Develop the Body
Physical training is received in the
gymnasium, a large, well-lighted, two
story brick building. 1t has the best
apparatus for affording gymnastic and
athletic exercises and for developing
symmetrically a students body. A
strong basketball team is in regular
practice, track athletic team, hand
ball team, and an indoor tennis team.
The subject of agriculture as studied
throughout the three years includes
soils, selecting and planning FARMS
subduing the fields, drainage, irriga-
ton, fences, roads, farm buildings,
water supply, groves, farm manage
ment, rotation of crops, manuring, pro-
duction and management of farm ma
nureS, green manure crops, and the
place OF commercial fertilizers in field
management in various parts of the
state; management of fields in relation
to fertility, to weeds, to yields, to live
stock and to profits; keeping weeds
down by helpful crop rotations; careful
field work, and good methods of farm
ing generally; botany, including the

the greenhouses and the nurseries.
Drawing is taught, so that the stu
dent may design and arrange farm
dwellings,, barns, outbuildings and
farm machinery.
Why Music Is Taught
Instruction in music is given, not in
order to make trained musicians, but
to present the elementary principles of
the art and to develop a love for this
valuable factor of home and social
life.
The first years work in English con-
sists CT almost daily practice in the
simpler forms of composition
Glasses in blacksmithing use such
FORCES as any farmer can make for
himself, each student manufacturing

pair. work after going back to the

prevail in Minnesota. Score cards are
used and standards of excellence made
for comparative work.
English is studied during the first
term of the second year, agricultural
physics, dairy chemistry dairy hus-
bandry. fruit growing, music, farm
mathematics, stock judging, breeding,
military drill and gymnasium work.
Half the time in agricultural physics
is given to experimental work, includ-
ing c&pill9rity of the soil, diffusion and
osmosis Of gases and liquids, heating,
lighting and ventilation; farm ma
chinery in particular pumps, eveners-
especially three and four horse pulleys;
milk testers, centrifugals; incubators,
Windmills, steam and gasoline engines;
frictions and lubricants; tensile
strength of wire and binding Irvine of
different grades: lightning and light
ming protection-the attempt being
made to give the student an acquaint-
ance with the laws of nature so he
may act with reason and work to adj
vantage.
Thorough Course in Dairying
Dairy chemistry shows the chemical
and allied changes that take place
ufacture into butter and cheese. Dairy
husbandry comprises farm dairy lee
lures upon the making of butter and
cheese: dairy practice, or practical
training in the most advanced methods
of Dreaming milk, ripening cream,
churning, working and packing butter,
etc. Students are taught also to rec
ogniZe tn: characteristics of the vari-
Gus breeds of dairy cattle and to know
the principles of feeding stock to best
advantage.
Fruit growing is taught with refer
ence to raising fruit for market and in
the home garden or orchard.
Farm mathematics or arithmetic en-
ables the student to master the usual
mathematical problems of the farm.
Stock judging is elf-explanatory.
The second term of the second year
introduces vegetable gardening and
field crops as new studies.
Vegetable gardening embraces tillage,
irrigation, rotation Of crops; trans
planting, formation and care of hot
beds, etc.
The classes in field crops instruct
students as to the place of field crops
in rotation of crops; preparation of the
land, planting, cultivating, harvesting,
storing and marketing Of grains, field
roots, fiber crops, sugar crops, grasses;
clovers and other forage; planting, care
and use Of pastures and meadows;
laws of heredity and variation; possi-
biIity of increasing values; improve
ment and formation of varieties of
grain, etc.
Beginning the last year a boy at the
school studies for the first time for
estry, entomology and zoology, poultry,
algebra (optionaD, veterinary science,
and the handling of grain and machin-
cry.
Forestry includes the formation and
care of windbreaks and shelter belts;
propagating trees, etc. Entomology
and zoology, all in their practical ass
poets, relate largely to insect pests.
The selection and raising of poultry is
thoroughly taught with practical illus
trations. The elements of algebra are
taught, if desired. Veterinary science,
inculcated with the aid of clinics at an
animal hospital, teach intelligent care
of farm stock. In the handling Of

thus Leland, superintendent of the
Fairgrounds, has been rushing the
work, and now the Fairgrounds build-

penters are gone and the plumbers and
stone company men will have their
tasks completed within a week.
While the building has been going up
Supt. Leland has been paying some at
itention to the gymnasium apparatus.
With the exception of few minor
pieces the strength building tools have
all been ordered and will be placed in
position Immediately.
; The gymnasium will include a set of
nine rope swings hung from three-inch
iron pipe frames, a giant stride re-
volving see-saw one that, withdrawing
all the charm of the fashioned kind,
revolves at the same time, making a.
merry go-rounde or a see-saw- at the
will of the occupants.
A set of parallel and horizontal bars
for the larger boys will be part of the
equipment, and two basketball courts
for the girls and boys have been laid
out. The baseball diamond will be on
the block adjoining the open air GYM
nasium. The small boys will play their
ball games on the lot between Gaultier
and Marion streets on Thomas
For the quiet children Supt. Leland
has provided eroquet, checkers, quoits
and rope-ring toss. The little tots of,

sand boxes they can build houses and
steps, not only of sand, but of blocks
that will be provided.
