largely due to Jim's fine work Christ
Jensen was appointed Farm Fore
man Immediately after his gradua-
ton last spring and has charge of
all the men. Curtis Shaw, Oliver
Benson, Jens Jensen and Herbert
Terrell are also on the farm.
Excellent work is being done in
every department and these men are
having the added benefit Of putting
into scientific practice the school
training 1t will be the policy of
the school to employ only student
help wherever it is possible. This
gives an opportunity for many stu
dents to help make a part of their
school expenses and also get valu-
able experience.
In this way the school becomes an
institution for agricultural education
and scientific practice in the largest
possible sense, and the many excel
lent farmers who are graduating
from the school are proving it's eff
ficiency and it's value to the agricul-
ture of Western Minnesota.

upon the profession Of nursing is now
open to the graduates from the three

kindred subjects. Upon graduation
these girls are prepared to enter a

graduates are now in training at
MinneWaska Hospital at Starbuck.
For girls who want to become
nurses there is no better or quicker
way to receive the preliminary train
ing necessary.

mackI, Agnes Dyrstad, and Berthe
