 4.iiiriinici: The year 1935-36 witnessed tin largest enrollment of agricultural students in the history of the school. fl « r a few paddle fifflils and disagreements I lie classes settled down to a smooth and ellicicnl running year. The purpose of I his particular lield of endeavor is to train young men in holh general and specialized agriculture. Aside from general e lncation the students obtain a great deal of practical experience such as the work of the dairy departinenl in a modern dairy barn with a herd of purebred (iuernsey and Holstein cattle. Experience is also gained by the poultry students in caring for a large llock of high producing white leghorns, running the Pclcrsime incubator and brooding chicks in the spring of the year. The fruit student comes in for his share of experience in keeping the large apple orchard of many varieties in order. The dairy department also provides training in the testing of milk, the making of icecream and other dairy products for those who wish to enter into this line oT occupation. Cohlcskill was well represented at the annual agricultural meetings, such as the fruit shows at Rochester and Kingston, Cornell Karin and Home W eek and the poultry show in New York City. Numerous field trips were taken by the livestock classes to judge the cattle on neigh I wring farms; the dairy manufacturing class to the outlying creameries and the bacteriology class to score barns and to the cream eries. The poultry class takes annual trips to the largest breeders in the I nited Stales: namely, Kauders at New Rail , and Mount Mope farms and other smaller breeders. The annual filling and showing contest is the highlight of the Junior year. 'The students in junior Livestock show and fit the school animals. The winner in each ring receives a bronze medal and the sweepstakes winner a large loving cup. The students in Senior Poultry show birds, eggs, and chicks. 'I'lie winner also revives a silver loving cup. We must not forget the Freshman Ik s altogether. I p to the present lime, they have been considered nothing but frosh but the lime has arrived when they may pass into the realm of the I pperclassmen. We Seniors wish them well upon their journey and only hope that they may keep their slates as clean during their slay here as the I pperclassmen have. 'Taking everything into consideration this has been a most beneficial year for all concerned, and it is with deep regret that we see it come to a close. ICiyldli Itnw: hnerence. Plalania. tioeniy.
