COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE During the entire period of economic crisis through which our nation has been passing a “back-to-nature” movement has been steadily increasing. The man who has lost his position has turned to the soil as a means for livelihood. He has realized that food and clothing arc truly the essentials or life. The College of Agriculture is a training school for men and women to learn how to obtain these two basic necessities. A young woman of today can learn how to plan good meals, how to cook them, how to sew, and all the accomplishments so helpful to her. A young man can learn about all the problems that meet one who is interested in earning a living by farming. By acquainting himself with these problems he knows how to prepare to meet them in the best possible manner. Doctor Paul S. Burgess is the head of this growing college. It is divided into five departments: agriculture and home economic education, agricultural chemistry and soils, agricultural engineering, agronomy, and animal husbandry Each department besides giving study, research, formal, and direct instruction in all its various subjects, such as: physics, farm management, breeding, and nutrition, also conducts several courses in advanced research work on special timely problems.
