l. The Experiment Station at Bat

methods Of immunization of cattle
from Texas fever.

cattle tick and suggested means for its
possible eradication.
3. The station has also helped ma

3. They have demonstrated that

ADVANCE STANDARDS

the state high school course. Fol
lowing the custom Of other colleges
and universities, the Louisiana state
University has allowed a stud"n, t.
enter with minimum Of nine units,
conditioning him in three units. Here
after the admission requirement VIII
be IA units and the minimum required
for conditioned admission viii be H.
During the past three years the char
acter OF high school work has improved
SO much that the University has been
able to obtain higher admission
standard than the official one The
records show that members OF the
present Freshman class were admit
ted on units as follows: Six with nine
units, six with ten units, 20 with II
units, II with IL units, 80 win l.
units. lis with IL units, Is with Il
units.

HOG PRODUCTION.

Some Of the most valuable work Of
the stations has been done in deter
mining the succession Of crops best
suited for cheap production of pork:
/. In determining the best winter
grazing crops for hogs.
?. In demonstrating the increase
soil fertility from the pasture method
of feeding crops.
2. They have demonstrated that
a crop Of cora and COW peas together
grazcd by hogs is worth twice as much
as a crop of corn alone fed to hogs.
L. They have demonstrated that an
acre of sweet potatoes followed by q
crop Of oats, will produce as much
pork as would 10 bushels Of corn.
). They have demonstrated that all
Of the culored breeds of hogs thrive
in the state.
6. They have demonstrated thai
much of the poorer uplands planted
to peanuts and potatoes will produce
more pork than will much of the ricf
anuvial land when devoted to corn.
:. The Experiment Stations origl'
mated the organization of Boys Pts
clubs.

DAIRY INDUSTRY.

l. The stations have worked in CO.
operation with da.rymen in reveral
portions of the safe encouraging
methods Of checking the amount OF
cost Of production and marketing.
?. They have helped farmers TO de-
termine the improbable COW.
3. They have demonstrated In corr
mercial daires that increased profits
come from feeding balanced ratio1s.
4. They have secured valuable data
as to wha. may be expected in !r,-
provement Of stock by the use Of good
sires.
3. They have shown the great value
of root crops to the dairyman and ara
agltating a more extended use OF
stock beets, stock carrots, etc.

.. Determining the best fertilizers
tor the different soils, and the best

3. Demonstrating the effectiveness

4 Initiating the organization of the

For the last -four years the Unit
v.Is.ty has been steadily advancing
the sta ndard OF admission To the Uni
versity. as well a. the standard OF
work in the University. In 1907 the
ate high school course OF study was
less thorough than 1t ia at present
ana the University entrance require
ments were correspondingly low. As
the sta,e high -hools have improved
and as the new state course Of study
for high schools has gone into effect
the admission requirements 10 the
Unworthy have gradually been raised.
In 1907 the admission requirement Of
preparatory work was valued at ten
units: in 1905 this was raised to II
units, and beginning with September.
1911. II units will be required for ad-
mission. This IS the pre7en. value Of

Practical Results
FORAGE CROPS.

l. The stations have grown some
varieties of nearly every forage crop
used in the various countries Of the
world to determine those suited TO
Louisiana.
>. They have had much to do with
the extension of the culture of lespe-
deza, peanuts, COW peas, clovers and
alfalfa.
3. They have rendered great serv-
ice in determining the merits of stock
beets, stock carrots and other root
crops for feed for cattle and hogs.
4. They have fully demonstrated
the practicabilty Of silos in Louisiana
and determined the best crops for en-
silage
