Realization Of the unfavorable sit
uation in this regard which obtains
on Minnesota farms, the university
authorities formed a section of agri-
cultural physics at the agricultural
engineering department two years
ago. which promises to be n OF the
fastest expanding classes at the in
stitution. When Prof. r. A. Stewart
was brought from the Kansas state
agricultural college and placed in
charge here, sos students registered
for this course, which takes in stud
les such as rural sewage disposal,
ing, ventilation of barns, warehouses
and school buildings. and other utili- :
tartan subjects.
Indicating the growth Of this
branch, the annual report stated that
1877 students had received this in
struction the past year.
. Carrying out its drive for better
kept farms, the extension division has
devoted many of its publications to
furthering the campaign for more
utilities on the farms. 1t has point
ed out that in Minnesota, the census
reports 17s,47s farms. of which only
1892 have running water, in the
household. and 1886 gas or electric
lights. This can be compared to
Iowa's 1851 farm homes and New
York's 45,5s7, which have water at
the -farn.> A further di~scouragina
comparison can be made in the fact
that 101,S47 farmers OF the state
have automobiles, it is said. y
Another unique comparison can be
drawn from reports that there arr

Emerging, he stod again on the edge
of the bath and gave his feathers a
