Department of Agriculture. The Department of Agriculture now gives ins truction in four separate and distinct courses. These are: Agricult¬ ure proper, Horticulture, Animal Hus¬ bandry, and the Teachers’ Course. The Departments of Veterinary Science, En¬ tomology, Botany, and Bacteriology give instruction along their respective lines in each of the several agricultural courses. The Agricultural Course proper con¬ sists chiefly in a study of soils and of crops which are grown in the fields. Farm crops and their relations to the various types of soil, their cultivation and management in general receive care¬ ful consideration. The Course in Dairying comes under this department, and in it very efficient work is given along the lines of butter¬ making. creamery management, a n d dairying. The Horticultural Department deals chiefly along lines of orchards and truck crops. The fruits which are grown in our State are studied thoroughly. The cultivation, pruning, and spraying of our fruit trees is of great importance, and therefore practical demonstrations are given along with the theoretical side of this work. The business of trucking is similarly treated so that the student may be well able to carry on work along that line. The Animal Husbandry Department has for its chief object the study of the live stock interests in this State. Care¬ ful instruction is given along the lines of judging, feeding and breeding of all kinds of live stock. The Department of Veterinary Science is an important ad¬ junct of this department. In recent years a great demand for agricultural teachers has arisen. To satisfy this demand a course in Teaching is now given. Besides the regular work in Agriculture, the students taking this course receive instruction in Psychology, School Management, and Methods of Education. Besides the work along agricultural lines which is given in the various courses, instruction is also given in Chemistry, Physics, English, Mathemat¬ ics, and History, thus offering to anyone taking the Agriculrural Course the op¬ portunity of receiving a well - rounded education.
