SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE Kansas without agriculture would be like bread without butter or vice versa. The School of Agriculture at Kansas State college strives to prepare students planning a vocation in farming or in an allied agricultural field. Some courses in agriculture have been taught at K-State since 1854, but today there is an organized school, with seven departments and numerous curricula. The College owns 2,784 acres of land for experimental work and instuction, and also maintains large and well-equipped laboratories for soil and crop work. The Students also become familiar with types of animal breeds through actual stock work. The school ' s judging teams are among the top in the nation, and the annually-staged Little American Royal draws a crowd from all over the area. Kansas State college is doing its share to prepare boys and girls for a life and vocation satisfying and profitable agri- culture. It is the bread and butter of Kansas.
