Horticulture The courses in the Department are intended to give a thorough training in the science of Horti¬ culture and to prepare students for practical work. The schedule is arranged to give a well-rounded education, with special emphasis on one or more of its various branches of Horticultural work. The courses fall into four groups: fruit growing, land¬ scape gardening, floriculture and vegetable garden¬ ing. The development of the fruit industry of the Northwest makes that branch of the work very pop¬ ular. The rapid development of the country and improvement of public and private property is call¬ ing for men . trained in landscape gardening and floriculture. The course in vegetable gardening gives the student an idea of the outside work in vegetable gardening, either for the home garden, truck garden, or the market garden. On the other hand, it gives him special training in the greenhouse to fit him as an exp ert along such lines. The greenhouse, nursery, orchard, small fruit plots and campus all afford excellent opportunities for instruction and research work. The students are required to do actual work of laying out orchards, planting trees, pruning, spraying and picking fruit, grafting, propagation, making hot beds, caring for greenhouses, making designs for the improvement of public parks and private property, and everything a successful horticulturist must know how to do. The completion of the course fits the student for practical work in Horticulture, teaching, or for research work. In these lines the demand for efficient men far exceeds the supply. 28
