Other Buildings, too, such as a Livestock Pavilion, and a larger Dairy Plant must soon emerge from the haze of legend into the clean outline of fact if this School is to continue to serve Agriculture in the best possif ble manner, Gur dreams include a modern Poultry Building, its cupola surmountf ed by a crowing cock proclaiming the supremacy of the great industry served. Clustering about every State School there is a legend of Service to the State. This School of Agriculture is year by year translating that legend into 'measf urable accomplishment as its graduates and former students move into the ser' vice of agriculture as leading farmers, county agents, SmithfHughes agricultural teachers, workers in commercial fields dependent upon agriculture, and into numerf ous other activities all related to the soil. These graduates and their classmates still in college have adopted as their slogan the sage advice of good old Thomas Tusser who four hundred years ago wrote these quaint lines: Good farme and wel stored, good housing and drie Good corne and good dairie, good market and nie Good shepherd, good tilman, good Jack and good Gill, Makes husband and husvvife their coffers to fill. ...Z ,,,.?..: .... 1 Page 25 ., ri' , , , , 9..- ,n.g:.-0- JY D .

THE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE Rapidly growing, efficiently functioning institutions have little time in which to collect the legends which adorn the history of older inf stitutions. The School of Agriculture of the North Dakota Agricultural College is only a little over a generation old as man measures timeg its staff and its students have been too busy doing things to collect legendary lore about the School. For many years there existed, however, a legend that some day this School would be housed in a building commensurate with the importance of the great agricultural industry of the State. The first step toward turning that legend into reality was taken by the Legislature of 1919 when SS150,000 was appropriated for the erection of a central unit 55x145 feet. The catalog for that year f19l9f1920j showed a registration of 71 underfgraduatc students in the regular four year course in agriculture. The second step which made our legend about adequate building facilities even more of a reality was taken by the Legislature of 1929, when they appropriated 395,000 for the erection of the north wing Q45 by 123 feetj of the Agricultural Building. The School year 192960 shows a registration of 207 students in the regular four year course in Agriculture. Dean H. L. Walster Another legend which has hung about this School is that some time the dif- ferent organizations among the students in the course in Agriculture might have a suitable place in which to meet. The dedicating of Room 215 in the north wing of the Ag Building as the Tifpi'o'mnifcifye or Council Lodge for the Saddle and Sirloin Club, the Alpha Zeta, and the Ag Club has made another legend a reality.

The original unit of Science Hall, built in 1901, waited sixteen years before the second central unit was added and the second unit waited twelve years for the complef tion of the structure. Now as one enters the grounds from the east gate he is confronted by an imposing building 225 feet long with the new north wing running back 114 feet in depth. The increased space while not twice the original two units is much more than the equivaf Dean A- E. Mmmd lent of either one and has made it possible to house all the departments except Public Discus- sion in one building. Staff offices, increased room for laboratories and recitation, and a generous study room for the use of the thousand and more students using the building daily are all highly appreciated. It has now been possible to give Botany more adequate quarters on the first floor with immediate access to its greenhouse, to concentrate Zoology on one floor with increased space for laboratories and with a separate room for a museum which it shares with Geology, and to restore Geology to the rooms where the early work of the department was carried on. Matheniatics now has a room for its calculaf tory machines, a statistical laboratory. Histoiy and the Social Sciences are finding much satisfaction in a large lecture hall seating a hundred students in comfort. English and Iviodern Languages can meet most of their classes under one roof.
