AGRICULTURAL MECHANICS DEPARTMENT This Department started out as a tractor course under the direction of Mr. T. A. Headly. It would be most interesting to see what some of our students would do with the equipment the Department had at their disposal in 1921. If you have not heard of some of these tractors, maybe your father has; one Case Tractor 15-27, one Sawyer Massey Steamer, one Titan Tractor, one Waterloo Boy Tractor, one Sawyer Massey Tractor, one Cleveland Tractor, one Fordson Tractor, one Goold-Sharpley Ideal Tractor, six stationary en¬ gines, carburetor parts, etc. Mr. J. K. MacKenzie became Head of this Department in 1939. The purpose of the course is to prepare owners and operators to operate intell¬ igently and repair farm power machinery. Courses are given on tractors, diesel, farm machinery, building construction, economics and welding. All the staff but Mr. MacKenzie are Institute graduates. One graduate is Service Manager of International Harvester Company in London, Ontario. . The course best trains young men for modern farming, and that is where most of the graduates are to be found.

AGRICULTURAL MECHANICS AND FARM CONSTRUCTION INSTRUCTORS One hundred years ago seventy-five percent of the people living in what is now Canada, lived on the land. They pro¬ duced enough food for themselves and for the remaining twenty five per cent; but nothing for export. Now only twenty-five per cent of all the people of Canada live on the land. Their productions of food is such that they feed all the people of Canada and are frequently harassed by surplus. This tremendous change has been brought about entirely by a change over from a man-powered agriculture to a mechan¬ ized agriculture. The machine in agriculture is one of the out¬ standing wonders of our age. The efficient management of this machine is one of the most important problems of our age. J. K.
