AGRICULTURAL STUDY
AT COLLEGE HAS
MANY SIDE ISSUES
A course in Agriculture in any Ag
ricultural College includes much more
than mere training to be a farmer.
Under the general term Agriculture
is included the courses in Agronomy,
Animal Husbandry, Dairy Husbandry,
Horticulture, Milling and Poultry.
A student taking out his first as
signment in Agriculture may be some
what bewildered at finding himself
confronted with so many vocations
from which to choose his work. How
ever, he does not have to make his
final decision the first year, nor even
the second year. These years are
the ones in which the student is giv
en a basic training for the special
vocation he may select in his Junior
year.
The agricultural work at our Col
lege is modeled along the lines of
the standard agricultural courses in
the larger schools.
The basic subjects of English,
Chemistry, Botany and Zoology are
required during the first two years,
along with Physiology, Horticulture,
Crops, Soils, Dairy, thus giving the
student an opportunity to select the
particular branch of agriculture for
which he feels himself best fitted.

which he will follow thru the re
maining years of his college course,
fitting himself for work in one of
the lines first mentioned.
Persons not wishing to take the
four-year course, but desiring some
work along agricultural lines may
enroll as special students and take
one or more of the several subjects
offered as specials. Among the spec
ial subjects are the following:
Horticulture, or a study of the nat
ural and cultural methods of the pro
pagation of plants, the testing of
seeds, grafting, budding and general
care of the plants. Special emphasis
is given to the culture of small fruits
adapted to local conditions. Vegeta
ble and flower garden culture may
also be included in this course.
Plant Pathology, or the study of
the diseases of economic crops. La
boratory work is given in which the

pearance of common plant diseases
of the farm and garden. Preventive
measures are studied for each case.
Genetics is a study of heredity,
work in biometry and special wrork in
the Mendelian inheritance in both
plants and animals.
Reindeer Management. This is a
subject which should appeal to Al
askans as this is the ideal country
for carrying on the reindeer indus
try. In this course are studied the
history of the reindeer and the best
methods of herd and pasture man
agement; also diseases and insect
pests common to the reindeer, with
the methods of prevention of each.
Farm Motors includes instruction
in the construction, operation, adjust
ment and repair of motors in use
on and about the farm. Laboratory

farm. Platting a farm for various
crops, and studying local farms as
to the general management of each
is included in this subject.
Other subjects relating to agricul
ture may be taken as specials upon
request and upon consultation with
