The TT Lewis School of Agriculturo
and the Colorado State Normal School
are the two educational institutions
maintained BY the state on the Western
Slope. The Fort Lewis school is q
high school grade and offers course a
three years which prepares for entrance
TO the State Agricultural College at Ft
Colling
Ii is located twenty six miles east a
Durango about two and half miles
from the Rio Grande and Southern
Railroad. The grounds are a princely
domain about three miles square and
comprising 6s0O acres of the finest land
in the southwestern part Of the state.
This beautiful site was chosen by the
Federal Government in the later seven
ties as a military reserve and here
regiment was stationed to preserve
peace between the early settlers and
the Utes and Navajos. Later the troops
were removed and the plant was con-
verted into an Indian school.
With the gradual removal of the
Indians to reservations in adjoining
states the attendance declined until
there were only six Indian children -
the school. Four years ago the site
was given to the state by the Federal
Government and the State, in turn,
gave it to the Agriculture College. The
school opened in the fall of 1911, prac-
tically the same time as the Normal
School at Gunnison.
While a number of large buildings
were accidentally burned while the
Indian School was in progress, there
are still 20 good sized buildings, not oil
of which are now in use. The former
blacksmith shop is now the shop for
manual training; the guard house is the
dairy; one of the barracks is the boys
dormitory; another is the girls dormi-
tory, but during the present year was
used for gymnastics and games as the
courses in household science, and con
sequently the girls, were eliminated on
account of the lack of funds to main
tain that department. Other buildings
in use are dining hall, school building,
principals office, residence, halls for
faculty members, and the barns At
the upper end of the tract is a large
reservoir nigh enough to supply water
to the broad valley and the two mesas
which rise from the valley by about
twelve feet The farm has been al
lowed TO run down and is being rapidly
covered with growth of scrub oak.
President Lory h,pa5 to secure num-
ber Of men from the penitentiary this
summer 10 prepair the buildings and
fences and to clear the land by means
of traction engines and chains When
the farm is once a going concern it will
not only be self sustaining, but also
should be source Of revenue to the
state.
The farm is partially stocked with
horses, cattle, hogs and poultry.
The school year is six months in dur
alton from October LIST to April LIST.
The past year there were seventeen
students enrolled and faculty of three
