History of the College
The Kansas State Agricultural College had its origin in the
Bluemont Central College, an institution established at Man-
hattan under the control of the Methodist Episcopal Church of
Kansas. The charter for this sectarian institution, approved
February 9, 1858, provided for the establishment of a classical
college, but contained the following interesting section :
"The said association shall have power and authority to establish, in
addition to the literary departments of arts and sciences, an agricultural
department, with separate professors, to test soils, experiment in the
raising of crops, the cultivation of trees, etc., upon a farm set apart for
the purpose, so as to bring out to the utmost practical results the agri-
cultural advantages of Kansas, especially the capabilities of the high
prairie lands."
The corner-stone of the new College was laid on May 10,
1859, and instruction began about a year later. On March 1,
1861, a bill passed the legislature establishing a State uni-
versity at Manhattan, the Bluemont Central College building to
be donated for the purpose. This measure, however, was
vetoed by Governor Robinson.
On July 2, 1862, President Lincoln signed the Morrill Act,
"An act donating public lands to the several states and terri-
tories which may provide colleges for the benefit of agriculture
and the mechanic arts." Section 1 of this act provides —
"That there be granted to the several states, for the purposes herein-
after mentioned, an amount of public lands to be appropriated to each
state a quantity equal to 30,000 acres for each senator and representative
in Congress to which the states are respectively entitled by the appor-
tionment under the census of I860."
Section 4 requires that the money from the sale of these
lands —
"Shall constitute a perpetual fund, the capital of which shall remain
forever undiminished, and the interest of which shall be inviolably ap-
propriated by each state which may take and claim the benefit of this act,
to the endowment, support and maintenance of at least one college, where
the leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical
studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning
as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts, in such manner as the
legislatures of the states may respectively prescribe, in order to promote
the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several
pursuits and professions in life."
Because of the nature of the endowment made by Congress,
the institutions founded in accordance with this act are gen-
erally known as the "land-grant" colleges. It may well be said
that this was the most far-reaching and statesmanlike stroke
of educational policy that any government has ever initiated.
52 Kansas State Agricultural College
On February 3, 1863, Governor Carney signed a joint resolu-
tion passed by the Kansas legislature, in accordance with
which the provisions of the Morrill Act "are hereby accepted
by the State of Kansas; and the State hereby agrees and
obligates itself to comply with all the provisions of said act."
On February 16 of the same year the governor signed an act
which permanently located the College at Manhattan, and
provided —
"That the location of the said college is upon this express condition,
that the Bluemont Central College Association . . . shall . . .
cede to the State of Kansas, in fee simple, the real estate, . . .
together with all buildings and appurtenances thereunto belonging; and
shall . . . transfer and deliver to said State the apparatus and
library belonging to said Bluemont Central College Association."
The three commissioners appointed by the governor selected
82,313.52 acres of the 90,000 granted by Congress. The de-
ficiency of 7686.48 acres — an amount selected and found to lie
within a railroad grant — was not made up by Congress till
1907.
After the passage of the creative act, no subsequent legisla-
tion was enacted by the federal government with reference to
the "land-grant" colleges until the second Morrill Act, for the
further endowment of agricultural colleges, was passed. This
bill received the signature of President Harrison on August 30,
1890. This act applied—
"A portion of the proceeds of the public lands to the more complete
endowment and support of the colleges for the benefit of agriculture and
the mechanic arts established under the provision of an act of Congress
approved July second, eighteen hundred and sixty-two."
It provided —
"That there shall be and hereby is annually appropriated, out of any
money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, arising from the sales
of public lands, to be paid as hereinafter provided, to each state and ter-
ritory for the more complete endowment and maintenance of colleges for
the benefit of agriculture and the mechanic arts now established or which
may be hereafter established, in accordance with an act of Congress
approved July 2, 1862, the sum of $15,000 for the year ending June 30,
1890, and an annual increase of the amount of such appropriation there-
after for ten years by an additional sum of $1000 over the preceding
year, and the average amount to be paid thereafter to each state and
territory shall be $25,000, to be applied only to instruction in agriculture,
the mechanic arts, the English language, and the various branches of
mathematics, physical, natural and economic science, with special refer-
ence to the industries of life and to the facilities for such instruction."
The third and last act of Congress increasing the income
of agricultural colleges is the Nelson amendment to the agri-
cultural appropriation bill, which was approved March 4, 1907.
In addition, however, to providing for an increase in the sup-
port of these institutions from federal funds, the law contains
the very significant provision specially authorizing the agri-
Development 53
cultural colleges to use a portion of this federal appropriation
for the special preparation of instructors for teaching agri-
culture and mechanic arts. The essential features of the
Nelson amendment are embodied in the following quotation
from the bill :
"That there shall be and hereby is annually appropriated 'out of any
money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, to be paid as here-
inafter provided, to each state and territory for the more complete en-
dowment and maintenance of agricultural colleges now established, or
which may hereafter be established, in accordance with the act of Con-
gress approved July 2, 1862, and the act of Congress approved August 30,
1890, the sum of $5000, in addition to the sums named in the said act,
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1908, and an annual increase of the
amount of such appropriation thereafter for four years by an additional
sum of $5000 over the preceding year, and the annual sum to be paid
thereafter to each state and territory shall be $50,000, to be applied only
for the purposes of the agricultural colleges as denned and limited in the
act of Congress approved July 2, 1862, and the act of Congress approved
August 30, 1890; provided, that said colleges may use a portion of this
money for providing courses for the special preparation of instructors
for teaching the elements for agriculture and the mechanic arts."
The Development of the Kansas Agricultural College
The President and Faculty of the Bluemont Central College
became the first board of instruction of the Kansas State Agri-
cultural College, when the former institution was transferred
to the State and assumed its present name. The Bluemont
Central College was a small institution of the older American
classical type, the curriculum resting upon Greek, Latin, and
mathematics as the chief fundamentals. Its transfer to the
State, and its conversion into the State Agricultural College,
involved at the time merely a change in name. The President
and Faculty, and the curriculum, remained unchanged. The
second catalogue, that of 1864-'65, mentions an "agricultural"
course, comprising one preparatory and two collegiate years;
but, although this course was strengthened from time to time,
the classical studies nevertheless remained until the year 1873,
when the character of the institution was radically changed.
Intensely practical courses replaced the then existing ones.
The new scheme of instruction involved the abolition of the
classical course, and the introduction of a practical scheme of
industrial education, which comprised a farmer's course of six
years, a mechanic's course covering four years, and a woman's
course requiring six years. Strong opposition to the new edu-
cational policies was encountered, but the authorities of the
institution adhered to them unswervingly, until the complete
success of the new method silenced criticism. Thus the insti-
tution became in fact what it had hitherto been only in name —
an agricultural college. In 1879 the Faculty consisted of the
President, five professors, and six instructors of lesser rank,
with a student body of 207. During this period of development
54 Kansas State Agricultural College
the College was removed from the original Bluemont College
site to its present campus, two miles nearer Manhattan.
From 1879 to 1897 no great changes were made in the
courses of study, but the work was systematized and strength-
ened in many directions, retaining, however, the distinctive
stamp of a college related to the industries. In 1897 the stu-
dent enrollment was 734. The Faculty had grown in numbers,
and the activities of the institution along investigative lines
had been well begun through the organization of the Agricul-
tural Experiment Station. Beginning with 1897, greater stress
was laid upon the study of financial, economic, and social
problems. Several men of considerable note were added to
the Faculty for the purpose of strengthening these phases of
educational work. In 1897 four professional courses, each
four years in length, were organized — in agriculture, in
mechanical engineering, in domestic science, and in general
science. These years, therefore, mark the beginning of an era
of broadening and diversification of the lines of instruction.
In 1899 the administration of the institution changed, and
during the ten years that followed the institution experienced
an era of solid, substantial, and uninterrupted growth, gaining
steadily in recognition and in influence over the State.
In 1913-'14, the number of heads of departments and full
professors was thirty-seven, while the entire Board of Instruc-
tion and employees numbered 260. The student enrollment for
the year 1913-'14, but not including the spring term or the
Summer School, was 2742. During the fifteen-year period
1899-1914 additional buildings to the value of about $500,000
were erected on the campus.
The history of the Kansas State Agricultural College may
well be divided into five epochs. The first ten years, from 1863
to 1873, may be called the classical period of the College. The
succeeding period, from 1873 to 1879, was the formative stage,
the years of the foundation of the Agricultural College prop-
erly so called, and bore the stamp of a spirit of pure indus-
trialism of the most intensely "practical" type.
The next eighteen years, from 1879 to 1898, may be called
the scientific culture period — a period in which, under modified
ideals, the institution was sought to be used not so much as a
tool to teach young men and women how to make a living as to
teach them how to live, and strove to accomplish the end of
character building by means of scientific and technical train-
ing having especial reference to agriculture.
Expansion of courses, with consequent increased flexibility,
plasticity, and adaptability of the means of instruction to the
various ends of industrial life, marked the following epoch of
twelve years. In this period we see a rising tendency toward
an increased acknowledgment of the Agricultural College as
the guardian and custodian of the State's industrial interests,
Development 55
and a steady growth of settled confidence over the State in its
ability to solve the State's industrial problems.
The present time, therefore, finds the College and its in-
separable coadjutor, the Experiment Station, occupying a
position of far-reaching power and influence in connection
with the most vital interests of the State of Kansas.
The Agricultural College accomplishes the objects of its
endowment in several ways. It offers a substantial training in
mathematics, in the fundamental sciences, in language, in his-
tory and civics, and in such other branches of human knowl-
edge as experience has shown to be best adapted to give mental
discipline, to develop good citizenship, and to furnish a proper
equipment for entering upon active life. The combination of,
industrial training with the usual class and laboratory work
has a special educational value. By the training of the hands
the student is made more efficient in every way, is brought into
contact with practical things, and is educated toward, rather
than away from, an interest in industry and manual exertion.
The general training which the College offers aims, therefore,
at an equally efficient development of the physical and the
mental powers. The greatest immediate aid to improvement in
social well-being and to betterment of the conditions of life is
a thorough knowledge of science as applied to daily existence.
In chemistry and physics, in geology, in botany, in bacteriol-
ogy, in entomology, in mechanics, the student is brought to an
understanding of the relation of man to the world around him,
and to a knowledge of how to utilize natural forces for the
protection and improvement of his own life.
The College trains directly toward the productive occupa-
tions in a considerable number of specialized branches. For
example : In agriculture, the student may specialize in agron-
omy, horticulture, forestry, animal husbandry, dairying, poul-
try husbandry, or veterinary science. In engineering, the stu-
dent may take work in mechanical, electrical, or civil engineer-
ing, architecture, or printing. For the young women, training
in domestic science, domestic art, home furnishing, home deco-
ration, etc., is offered.
A second large object of the College, made effective through
the Agricultural Experiment Station, is to investigate the
problems of agriculture in the widest sense. By conducting
the researches of the Experiment Station in close connection
with the educational work of the College, opportunity is af-
forded students to gain an understanding and an apprecia-
tion of the work of scientific investigation, and to become
better able to appreciate the relation of science to agriculture.
Opportunity is thus also offered to obtain such training as
will fit competent students to become investigators, and to
enter fields of agricultural leadership in the experiment sta-
tions, in the United States Department of Agriculture, as
56 Kansas State Agricultural College
heads of private agricultural enterprises, or in the capacity of
superintendents and managers of such undertakings.
In addition to the regular educational work, the College now
maintains, through the Division of College Extension, a highly-
organized system of agricultural education among the farmers
themselves. A corps of trained and efficient institute lecturers
hold meetings in every county in the State, conduct seed trains,
dairy trains, corn trains, alfalfa trains, and poultry trains, and
publish two series of pamphlets of information and instruc-
tion — one for rural teachers, the other for members of farm-
ers' institutes. In addition to the regular staff of the Division
of College Extension, many members of the College Board of
Instruction, and of the staff of the Experiment Station, give
several weeks of each year to the public work of the farmers'
institutes.
Finally, the College and the Station together are being in-
creasingly charged by the State government with State in-
dustrial and police duties, such as pure food investigations,
control of feeding stuffs and fertilizers, State forestry work,
and other similar duties.
Fifty-first Annual Catalogue 57
The Experiment Stations
The Agricultural Experiment Station
The Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station was organized
under the provisions of an act of Congress, approved
March 2, 1887, which is commonly known as the "Hatch Act,"
and is officially designed as —
"An act to establish agricultural experiment stations in connection
with the colleges established in the several states under the provisions
of an act approved July 2, 1862, and the acts supplementary thereto."
The wide scope and far-reaching purposes of this act are
best comprehended by an extract from the body of the measure
itself, in which the objects of its enactment are stated as
being —
"To aid in acquiring and diffusing among the people of the United
States useful and practical information on subjects connected with agri-
culture, and to promote scientific investigation and experiment respecting
the principles and practice of agricultural science."
The law specifies in detail —
"That it shall be the object and duty of said experiment stations to
conduct original researches or verify experiments on the physiology of
plants and animals; the diseases to which they are severally subject, with
remedies for the same; the chemical composition of useful plants at their
different stages of growth; the comparative advantages of rotative crop-
ping as pursued under a varying series of crops; the capacity of new
plants or trees for acclimation; the analysis of soils and waters; the
chemical composition of manures, natural or artificial, with experiments
designed to test their comparative effects on crops of different kinds; the
adaptation and value of grasses for forage plants; the composition and
digestibility of the different kinds of food for domestic animals; the
scientific and economic questions involved in the production of butter and
cheese; and such other researches or experiments bearing directly on
the agricultural industry of the United States as may in each case be
deemed advisable."
On the day after the Hatch Act had received the signature
of the President, the legislature of Kansas, being then in ses-
sion, passed a resolution, dated March 3, 1887, accepting the
conditions of the measure, and vesting the responsibility for
carrying out its provisions in the Board of Regents of the
Kansas State Agricultural College,
Until 1908 the expenses of the Experiment Station were pro-
vided for entirely by the federal government. The original
creative act (the Hatch Act) carried an annual congressional
appropriation of $15,000. No further addition to this amount
was made until the passage of the Adams Act, which was ap-
proved by the President March 16, 1906. This measure
58 Kansas State Agricultural College
provided, "for the more complete endowment and maintenance
of agricultural experiment stations/' a sum beginning with
$5000, and increasing each year by $2000 over the preceding
year for five years, after which time the annual appropriation
was to be $15,000—
"To be applied to paying the necessary expenses of conducting original
researches or experiments bearing directly on the agricultural industry
of the United States, having due regard to the varying conditions and
needs of the respective states or territories."
It is further provided that —
"No portion of said moneys exceeding five per centum of each annual
appropriation shall be applied, directly or indirectly, under any pretense
whatever, to the purchase, erection, preservation or repair of any building
or buildings, or to the purchase or rental of land."
The Adams Act, providing as it does for original investiga-
tions, supplied the greatest need of the Experiment Station —
the means of providing men and equipment for advanced re-
search. Only such experiments may be entered upon, under
the provisions of this act, as have first been passed upon and
approved by the Office of Experiment Stations of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
In addition to these, there are now in progress, under the
Hatch Act and by means of the State fund, a total of over fifty
lines of investigation and experiment, covering all phases of
agricultural investigation.
The farms, live stock, laboratories, and general equipment of
the College are all directly available for the use of the Experi-
ment Station.
In 1913 the legislature of Kansas appropriated the sum of
$25,000 a year for the next biennium, for the further support
of the Experiment Station. The income of the Experiment
Station for the year 1913- , 14 is therefore derived as follows :
Hatch fund (federal) $15,000
Adams fund (federal) 15,000
State appropriation (general) 25,000
State appropriation (special) :
Cooperative seed experiments 7,500
Irrigation investigations 2,000
Total $64,500
The work of the Experiment Station is published in the
form of bulletins, which record the results of investigations
along agricultural lines. These bulletins are of three sorts:
technical bulletins, which record the results of researches of a
purely scientific character, provided for under the Adams Act ;
farm bulletins which present the data of the technical bulletins
in a simplified form, suitable for the general reader ; farm bul-
letins in which a brief, condensed and popular presentation is
made of data which call for immediate application, and can
not await publication in the regular bulletin series.
The Experiment Stations 59
In addition to the bulletins, which report original investiga-
tions, the Station also publishes a series of circulars for the
purpose of conveying needed or useful information, not neces-
sarily new or original. To date the publications of the Station
number 197 bulletins and thirty-four circulars.
All bulletins and other publications from the Experiment
Station are sent without charge to citizens of the State. Any
person in the State who so desires may have his name placed
on the permanent mailing list of the Station.
Letters of inquiry and general correspondence should be
addressed : "Agricultural Experiment Station, Manhattan,
Kan." Special inquiries should be directed, so far as possible,
to the heads of departments having in charge the matters con-
cerning which information is desired.
PUBLIC WORK OF THE STATION
In addition to the work of agricultural investigation and
research, the State has enlarged the activities of the Station
«tlong various lines of state executive or control work.
One of the most important of these adjunct offices is that of
State Dairy Commissioner, for which an appropriation of
$7500 a year was made for 1914 and 1915. This official, ap-
pointed by the Board of Administration, and having his office
at the seat of the Agricultural College, is required (Laws of
1909, ch. 237) —
"To inspect or cause to be inspected all the creameries, public dairies,
butter, cheese and ice-cream factories, or any place where milk or cream
or their products are handled or stored within the State, at least once a
year, or oftener if possible."
He may in connection with the Board of Administration of
the College —
"Formulate and prescribe such reasonable rules and regulations for
the operation of creameries, butter, cheese and ice-cream factories and
public dairies as shall be deemed necessary by such board to fully carry
out the provisions of this act."
He may act on complaints regarding the sale of unwhole-
some or unclean dairy products, and may prohibit their sale.
He may —
"Condemn for food purposes all unclean or unwholesome milk, cream,
butter, cheese or ice-cream, wherever he may find them."
Another important State function is that of the State Ento-
mological Commission. (Laws of 1907, ch. 386 ; 1909, ch. 27.)
This commission, created in 1907, was established —
"To suppress and eradicate San Jose scale and other dangerous insect
pests and plant diseases throughout the State of Kansas."
The professors of entomology at the Agricultural College and
at the University of Kansas are by law designated as two of
60 Kansas State Agricultural College
the five members of the above commission. Acting under the
title of State entomologists, they divide between them the ter-
ritory of the State, for purposes of inspection.
They are empowered —
"To enter upon any public premises ... or upon any land of
any firm, corporation or private individual within the State of Kansas,
for the purpose of inspection, destroying, treating or experiment upon
the insects or diseases aforesaid."
They may treat or cause to be treated "any and all suspi-
cious trees, vines, shrubs, plants, and grains/' or, under cer-
tain conditions, may destroy them. They must annually in-
spect all nursery stock, and no nursery stock is to be admitted
within the State without si^ch inspection. For the expenses of
the work of the commission, $5000 was appropriated in 1913
for each of the following two years.
Concerned with the live-stock interests of the State is the
State Live Stock Registry Board, with regard to which there
is the following provision (Laws of 1913) :
"Every person, persons, firm, corporation, company or association
that shall stand, travel, advertise or offer for public service in any man-
ner any stallion in the State of Kansas, shall secure a license certificate
for such stallion from the Kansas State Live Stock Registry Board, as
herein provided. Said board shall consist of the dean of the Division of
Agriculture, head of the Animal Husbandry Department, and the head
of the Veterinary Department of the Kansas State Agricultural College."
To this board is assigned the duty of licensing stallions used
for breeding purposes within the State, and authority to verify
their breeding and to classify them under the following heads :
pure-bred, grade, cross-bred, and scrub. No animal not thus
approved and licensed with the board is permitted to be used
for public breeding purposes. ,
The suppression of tuberculosis in cattle is also delegated by
the State to the Agricultural College. (Laws of 1909, ch. 160.)
Another provision for encouraging the improvement of live
stock is embodied in an act of the legislature (Laws of 1909,
ch. 46) —
"Providing for experimental and demonstration work with live stock
at the Kansas State Agricultural College."
For this purpose there was appropriated the sum of $7500 —
"Which shall be known as a revolving fund, to be used in providing
experimental and demonstration work with live stock at the Kansas State
Agricultural College, at Manhattan, Kan., under the direction and ap-
proval of the Board of Regents of said institution; which said fund shall
be used only for the purpose of purchasing live stock and feed, and such
other expenses as may be necessary for caring for said live stock and con-
ducting demonstrations and experiments therewith."
Stock thus acquired can be sold by the Board of Administra-
tion, when in the judgment of the Board it seems advisable,
and the receipts from such sales are to be turned over to the
The Experiment Stations 61
State treasurer's office, there to constitute a "revolving fund,"
to be drawn upon for new purchases of live stock.'
By legislative act (Laws of 1909, ch. 49), a "division of for-
estry" at the Agricultural College is also provided for in the
following terms :
"For the promotion of forestry in Kansas there shall be established at
the Kansas State Agricultural College, under the direction of the Board
of Regents, a division of forestry. The Board of Regents of the Kansas
State Agricultural College shall appoint a State forester, who shall have
general supervision of all experimental and demonstration work in for-
estry conducted by the Experiment Station. He shall promote practical
forestry in every possible way, compile and disseminate information
relative to forestry, and publish the results of such work through bul-
letins, press notices, and in such other ways as may be most practicable
to reach the public, and by lecturing before farmers' institutes, associa-
tions, and other organizations interested in forestry."
For carrying into effect the provisions of this act, there was
appropriated for the fiscal years 1912 and 1913, $2000 each.
The State has also placed the Experiment Station in charge
of the execution of the acts concerning the manufacture and
sale of live-stock remedies and commercial feeding-stuffs
(Laws of 1913), and also of commercial fertilizers (Laws of
1907, chapter 217). It is provided by the statutes that —
"Every brand of live-stock remedy and every brand of commercial
feeding-stuff offered or held for sale or sold within the State of Kansas
shall be registered in the office of the Director of the Agricultural Ex-
periment Station of the Kansas State Agricultural College, and each sale
of any such brand not so registered shall constitute a separate violation
of this act."
And—
"Except as herein provided, it shall be unlawful within the State of
Kansas to sell, offer for sale, or expose for sale any commercial fertilizer
which has not been officially registered by the Director of the Agricultural
Experiment Station of the Kansas State Agricultural College."
These general provisions are limited in their application
by important exceptions stated in the laws. The fees collected
under these acts are used to defray the necessary expenses in-
curred in carrying out the provisions of the act.
It will thus be seen that the State of. Kansas is making in-
creasing use of the scientific staff of the Experiment Station
in matters of State importance requiring the application of
technical knowledge.
A late and important addition to the Experiment Station is
the recently established Department of Milling Industry. The
great economic importance of the wheat and milling interests
of this State, and the difficult nature of the problems connected
with the milling and baking quality of wheat, render it im-
perative that scientific research be conducted on the subject.
The hearty cooperation and financial support of all the millers'
associations and of other commercial bodies rendered it finan-
62 Kansas State Agricultural College
cially possible to inaugurate this important experimental work
until special legislative appropriation could be secured. The
legislature of 1913 appropriated $7500 for mill equipment, and
there is now installed the best equipped experimental milling
plant in the United States.
The research work includes a complete study of the growing,
harvesting, storing and marketing practices and their relation
to the milling value of wheat ; of systems of grading, and their
effect upon the market value of grain; of insect enemies of
wheat in the field and in storage; and of flour and mill by-
products. There will also be conducted a comprehensive study
of the effects of climate and soil upon the chemical composition
of wheat, and upon its subsequent milling and baking quality.
A specially equipped laboratory for carrying on experimental
baking tests, and for making certain chemical determinations,
has been installed. This will aid very materially in carrying
on the research work.
By the act of the legislature (Laws of 1911, ch. 23, p. 46)
the Board of Administration is authorized —
"To investigate the present methods used in growing and distributing
agricultural seeds in the State; to determine by experiments the methods
of growing seed best adapted to different localities; to encourage farmers
in the use of the best methods of seed production; to determine by in-
vestigation those localities most in need of improved seed, and to aid
such localities in securing desirable seed."
For carrying out the provisions of this act, the sum of
$7500 is appropriated for each of the two years 1914 and 1915.
Experiments and demonstrations on the proper use of irri-
gation waters, in cooperation with the irrigation investiga-
tions of the United States Department of Agriculture, are
authorized by act of the legislature (Laws of 1911, ch. 214,
p. 378). For this purpose there was appropriated the sum of
$2000 annually for the years 1913-'14 and 1914- , 15.
The government supplies an equal amount of money each
year, making a total of $4000 a year for cooperative irrigation
investigations.
Branch Agricultural Experiment Stations
Fort Hays Branch Station
The land occupied by this Station is a part of what was origi-
nally the Fort Hays military reservation. Being no longer re-
quired for military purposes, it was turned over to the De-
partment of the Interior October 22, 1899, for disposal under
the act of Congress of July 5, 1884. Before final disposition of
this land was made, however, the Kansas legislature, in Feb-
ruary, 1895, passed a resolution requesting the Congress of the
United States to donate the entire reservation of 7200 acres
to the State of Kansas for the purposes of agricultural educa-
tion and research, for the training of teachers, and for the
Branch Experiment Stations 63
establishment of a public park. Bills giving effect to this re-
quest were introduced into Congress without avail, until the
fifty-sixth Congress, when, through the influence of Senator,
later Regent, W. A. Harris, and of Congressman Reeder, a bill
was passed, setting aside this reservation "for the purposes of
establishing an experimental station of the Kansas Agricul-
tural College and a western branch of the Kansas State Nor-
mal School thereon and a public park." This bill was approved
by the President on March 28, 1900. By act of the State legis-
lature, approved on February 7, 1901, the act of Congress
donating this land and imposing the burden of the support of
these institutions was accepted. The same session of the legis-
lature passed an act providing for the organization of a branch
experiment station and appropriating a small fund for pre-
liminary work.
The land at the Fort Hays Branch Station consists mainly
of high rolling prairie, with a limited area of rich alluvium
bordering on a creek, and is situated on the edge of the semi-
arid plains region. It is well suited for experimental and
demonstration work in dry farming, in irrigation, and in crop,
forestry, and orchard tests, under conditions of limited rainfall
and high evaporation.
The work of this Station is confined to the study of the
problems peculiar to the western half of the State, and relates
especially to crop production under limited rainfall, to the
origination of varieties better adapted to the climatic condi-
tions there prevailing, and to studies of the systems of animal
husbandry suited to this region. A systematic study of the
value of trees as preventives of soil drifting is being made on
a scale sufficiently large to bring definite conclusions. The
facilities of this Station are being used for the growing of
large quantities of pure seed of the strains and varieties which
have proved in actual test to be most productive in the west-
ern part of the State.
This Station is supported entirely by State funds and by
the sale of farm products. Under the terms of the acts of
Congress establishing and supporting agricultural experiment
stations, and under the rulings of the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture, . none of the funds appropriated by the
federal government may be used for the support of branch
experiment stations.
The State appropriation for the maintenance of the Fort
Hays Branch Experiment Station is $25,000 for 1914 and
$25,000 for 1915.
Garden City Branch Station
In 1906 the county commissioners of Finney county pur-
chased, for purposes of agricultural experimentation, a tract of
land amounting to 320 acres, situated four and one-half miles
from Garden City, on the unirrigated upland.
64 Kansas State Agricultural College
This land has been leased for a. term of ninety-nine years
to the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station as an "ex-
perimental and demonstration farm," for the purpose of de-
termining the methods of culture, crop varieties, and crop
rotations best suited to the southwestern portion of the State,
under dry-land farming conditions. A pumping plant irri-
gating from eighty to one hundred acres has been installed for
the purpose of investigating the expense of pumping and the
cost of equipment necessary for plants of this type which" are
common in the shallow-water district between Garden City
and Scott City and along the Arkansas valley. The "duty of
water" and the methods of applying water are objects of in-
vestigation. For improvements and maintenance of this
Station the sum of $5000 a year was appropriated for 1914
and 1915.
Other Branch Stations
Branch stations are maintained at Dodge City and Tribune.
At these stations experimental and demonstration work is
conducted for the benefit of the districts surrounding these
points. Cropping systems, summer-fallow methods, time of
planting, variety testing, and breeding of special crops are
the principal work undertaken. At Dodge City a dairy herd
is maintained.
The legislature of 1913 appropriated for the maintenance
of the Dodge City Station $2500 for the year 1914, and $2500
for the year 1915, and for the Tribune Station $2500 for 1914,
and $2500 for 1915. The legislature of 1913 also appropriated
$6000 for the establishment of a Branch Station in Kearny
county, with $2000 maintenance for 1913- , 14, and $2000 for
1914-'15. It also appropriated $11,000 for the establishment
of a Branch Station in Thomas county, with $2000 additional
for maintenance for 1913- ? 14, and $2000 for 1914-'15.
The Engineering Experiment Station
The Engineering Experiment Station was established for
the purpose of carrying on continued series of tests of engi-
neering and manufacturing value to the State of Kansas, on a
scale sufficiently large for the results to be of direct commer-
cial value.
Tests of cement and concrete are being conducted, using
principally Kansas-made cements and such materials for the
aggregate in the concrete as can be found in different localities
in the State. In connection with this series of tests, a study is
being made of the waterproofing and coloring of cement build-
ing blocks.
Tests of Kansas coals are being made. These include mine-
run, slack, nut/ screened, lump, and washed-pea coals. The
purpose is not only to determine the relative values of the dif-
Engineering Experiment Station 65
ferent coals for steam generation, birt more particularly to
ascertain the best methods of firing- the coals of each locality,
and the relative values of the different kinds of coal obtained
from any single mine. These tests are conducted with both
natural and induced draft, the Station owning an induced-
draft equipment and economizer.
The Station owns a 100-horsepower and a 150-horsepower
gas producer using bituminous coal. Tests that have been car-
ried on have been for the purpose of determining the relative
values of the various coals as regards (1.) cost per cubic foot of
gas; (2) adaptability with respect to mechanical manipulation
in the producer; (3) freedom from sulphur and disagreeable
gases; (4) the production of tar and otb.er by-products; special
research.
The producer testing equipment includes calorimeters for
the analysis of solid, liquid and gaseous fuels, a Venturi tube
for the measurement of gas, a thermoelectric pyrometer, and
such other apparatus as is essential for the carrying out of
complete tests. Each test is conducted for a period of several
weeks, in order to eliminate errors in tii€ estimation of the coal
and "stand-by" losses.
As there are but very few other plants in the country satis-
factorily using bituminous coal for producer gas, it is believed
that the experiments now being- carried on will give valuable
results.
Other experiments now in progress are concerned with
(1) lubricants and bearings; (2) power required for driving
machine tools; (3) loss of power in "transmission by shaft,
bearings, chains, and gears; (4) the relative adaptability, effi-
ciency and cost of gasoline, kerosene an. d denatured alcohol for
internal-combustion engines; (5) the eost of compressing air
and the efficiency of compressed air fox power purposes; (6)
endurance of paints. As applied to roois, the paint tests have
been in progress for five years, and they will be extended to in-
clude other cases of exposure to weatheir. The investigation is
directed especially to the relation of tha chemical nature of the
pigments and of the oils employed in paanting to the durability
of the paints. (7) Tests on pipe-coverixig ; (8) tests on heavy-
oil engines.
Among the projected investigations are (1) underground
water-flow in various parts of the Sta"te, and methods of de-
veloping it for irrigation; (2) the possibilities of develop-
ing waterpower for small plants to b& used on farms and in
isolated communities for driving machinery, either directly or
by electric transmission,, and for lighting; this investigation to
include the preparation and publication of plans for these
plants; (3) the continuation of investigations as to the
strength of structural details in timber*, metal, and reinforced
66 Kansas State Agricultural College
concrete'; (4) studies of the tractive effect or efficiency of
draught horses; (5) tests of small gasoline-electric units;
(6) methods of cooling condensed steam; (7) tests of Kansas
brick and other road material.

Grounds, Buildings, and Equipment
The college campus occupies a commanding and attractive
site upon an elevation adjoining the western limits of the city
of Manhattan, with electric car service into town and to the
railway stations. The grounds are tastefully laid out accord-
ing to the designs of a landscape architect, and are extensively
planted with a great variety of beautiful and interesting trees,
arranged in picturesque groups, masses, and border plantings,
varied by banks of shrubbery and interspersed with extensive
lawns, gardens, and experimental fields. Broad, well-shaded
macadamized avenues lead to all parts of the grounds. Ce-
ment walks connect all of the buildings with one another and
with the entrances. Including the campus of 160 acres, the
College owns 748 acres of land at Manhattan, valued at
$185,000, and rents 522 acres in addition. Outside the campus
proper, all of the land is devoted to educational and experi-
mental work in agriculture. Within the college grounds, most
of the space not occupied by buildings and needed for drives
and ornamental planting is devoted to orchards, forest and
fruit nurseries, vineyards, and gardens. A number of fields
in the northern and western portions of the campus are used
for general experimental work by various departments.
The college buildings, twenty-one in number, are harmoni-
ously grouped, and are uniformly constructed of limestone
obtained from the college quarries. A central power plant
furnishes steam heat and electric light and power to the
buildings, and a plant for the manufacture of producer gas
supplies some of the laboratories and shops. The College owns
and operates its own system of waterworks and is provided
with a complete sewerage system.

72 Kansas State Agricultural College
Library
The general College Library consists of all books belonging
to the College, including the library of the Experiment Sta-
tion, which is incorporated with it. On January 1, 1914, the
Library contained 44,236 bound volumes, besides much un-
bound material. It receives currently about four hundred
serial publications. As a depository the Library receives the
documents and other publications of the United States gov-
ernment. The books are classified according to the Dewey
system and are indexed in a dictionary card catalogue.
All students, as well as all officers of administration and in-
struction, have the privilege of direct access to the book stacks.
The Library is primarily for free reference use, but the privi-
lege of drawing books is accorded to all those connected with
the College as registered students or as members of the Fac-
ulty. Books not specially reserved may be drawn for home
use for two weeks. All books are subject to recall at any time.
General reference books, books reserved for classes, general
periodicals, and certain other groups of books are to be con-
sulted only in the reading rooms. They may not be loaned
from the Library except when the reading rooms are closed.
They must then be returned to the Library by the time it next
reopens. Any violation of the regulations of the Library
subjects the offender to a fine, or to a withdrawal of Library
privileges, or to both, according to the gravity of the offense.
More serious offenses, such as mutilation or theft of books or
periodicals, are considered just causes for suspension or expul-
sion of the offender, who is also required to make good the loss
incurred.
Reading Rooms. — Three reading rooms are maintained in
connection with the Library : the general reference room, con-
taining encyclopedias, dictionaries, atlases, bibliographies, and
general reference books ; the special reference room, containing
books reserved for classes ; and the periodical room, containing
current magazines and the important daily and weekly Kansas
newspapers. These rooms are freely open to the students and
to the public for purposes of reading and study.
Divisional Libraries. — Divisional and departmental collec-
tions are deposited in certain College buildings apart from the
main Library. These collections are for the special conven-
ience of the instructors and students of the departments con-
cerned. They are under the direction of the Librarian and
are accessible to all students at regular hours.
Hours of Opening. — The Library is open daily, except on
legal holidays, from 7:30 o'clock A.M. to 5:30 o'clock P.M.
during the regular College year. During vacation periods it
is open daily from 8 o'clock A. M. to 5 o'clock p. M.

Requirements for Admission
The entrance requirements to the College are made broad
and flexible, only fundamental subjects being definitely re-
quired. These requirements are made upon the supposition
that high schools are local institutions in which the courses
should be adapted to the needs of the individual localities, and
that college. entrance requirements should be such as to take
the output of the high schools, rather than to determine the
nature of the work offered in them.
Persons, to be admitted to any department of the College,
must be at least fourteen years of age. Fifteen units of high-
school work are required for admission to the freshman class.
A unit is defined to be the work done in an accredited high
school or academy in five recitation periods a week for one
school year. All persons who offer fifteen units of work done
in an accredited high school, and accepted by such high school
for graduation, will be admitted to the freshman class. One
who offers fourteen such units will also be admitted as a fresh-
man, but will be conditioned in one unit. Such deficiency must
be made up the first year that the student is in attendance. If
not made up within that time college credits are taken in its
place.
For courses in the divisions of agriculture, home economics
or general science the high-school work offered must include
three units of English, two units of mathematics, and one unit
of physics. For courses in the division of mechanic arts the
high-school work offered must include, in addition to the pre-
ceding, another unit of mathematics. Students lacking any of
these must make them up before graduation, and before being
assigned to dependent subjects.
It is recommended that all high-school students planning to
enter the College include a year of botany in their high-school
course.
ENTRANCE SUBJECTS
The subjects from which entrance credit may be offered,
together with the number of units, are arranged in eight
groups, as follows :
Group I
English Three or four units
Latin, one, two, three, or four units
Group II Greek, one, two, three, or four units
Foreign German, one, two, three, or four units

DEFICIENCIES
The courses in the School of Agriculture offered in connec-
tion with the College give every needed opportunity for stu-
dents of the College to make up anything lacking in their prep-
aration for entrance. All such entrance deficiencies must be
made up before the beginning of the sophomore year. No
student is registered in the senior class unless all deficiencies
of the preceding years have been provided for. Candidates for
graduation must make up all deficient subjects before the be-
ginning of the spring term of the senior year. No student is
considered a candidate for graduation the next June who is de-
ficient more than three full subjects in addition to his regular
assignment at the beginning of the fall term. No student who
fails or is conditioned or found deficient in any subject, or
Requirements for Admission 75
whose grade in more than one subject falls below G in any
term, is allowed to carry extra work during the succeeding
term.
ADVANCED CREDIT
At the discretion of the President, students who present cer-
tificates showing credits for college work done in other in-
stitutions are allowed hour-for-hour credit on courses in this
College in so far as they may be directly applied, or can be
accepted as substitutions or electives. In cases m which it is
impossible for one to furnish an acceptable certificate con-
cerning work upon which advanced credit is asked, examina-
tions are given, if the subject has been studied under competent
instruction.
ADMISSION
Admission by Examination. Examinations for admission
will be held at the College on Tuesday, September 15, 1914;
Monday, January 4, 1915, for the winter term; and Monday,
March 29, 1915, for the spring term.
Admission by Certificate. The applicant is required to
submit to the committee on admission a certificate of the high-
school or academy credit properly certified to by the authori-
ties of the institution in which the work was done. Blanks will
be furnished by the College for this purpose. It is requested
that all work done in such high school or academy be presented
upon these blanks, in order to expedite the granting of credit
to such applicants as are entitled to it.
It is greatly to the advantage of the prospective student to
see to it that this blank, properly filled out, be sent to the College
as soon as possible after graduation. A permit to register will
then be sent him by the Registrar in advance of hi-s coming in
September. This will greatly facilitate the work of entrance.
The student will present this permit at the registration room
in Nichols Gymnasium, and will not be compelled to wait his
turn to meet the committee on admission.
SPECIAL STUDENTS
In recognition of the fact that experience and maturity tend
to compensate, in a measure at least, for lack of scholastic at-
tainments, the College admits as special students those who
are twenty-one years of age or older, without requiring them
to pass the regular examinations, provided (1) they show
good reason for not taking a regular course; (2) they be
assigned only to such work as they are qualified to early suc-
cessfully; (3) they do superior work in the subjects assigned.
A special student is assigned by the dean of the division in
which occur the major subjects to be pursued.

Requirements for Graduation
For graduation, one must complete one of the four-year
courses as shown elsewhere. These are believed to provide
for the necessities of most students who seek an institution of
this kind, and departures from the specified work are not en-
couraged. Under special conditions, however, such College
substitutions are allowed as the interests of the student de-
mand. The total requirement, including military drill or physi-
cal training, is about 220 term hours, or credits, the credit
unit being one hour of recitation or lecture work, or two hours
of laboratory work, a week, for one term of twelve weeks.
As the allowance for laboratory work is liberal, and much of
this is included in all courses, the total requirement named is
not regarded as excessive.
DEGREES
The degree of bachelor of science (B. S.) is conferred upon
those completing the four-year course in agriculture, mechani-
cal engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, archi-
tecture, industrial journalism, home economics, or general
science.
The degree of doctor of veterinary medicine (D. V. M.) is
conferred upon those completing the four-year course in vet-
erinary medicine.
The degree of bachelor of agriculture is conferred upon stu-
dents who have completed the freshman and sophomore work
of the four-year course in agriculture, who have been con-
spicuously successful in farming for a period of five years
under the supervision of the Faculty of the College, and who
have furnished the Faculty, through the Dean of the Division
of Agriculture, acceptable reports of their work and progress.
CERTIFICATES
A certificate in agriculture is granted students completing
the first two years of the four-year course in agriculture.*
A certificate is granted to those completing either of the
two-year short courses in agriculture.
A certificate is granted to those completing the six-month
housekeeper's course.
* Under certain conditions and restrictions, students of mature years who can not
spend fomr years in college, and -who may be applicants for the degree of bachelor of agri-
culture or for the certificate in agriculture, may, on the completion of all of the work
required in the freshman year, have the privilege of selecting such courses in advance of
the sophomore year, under the advice and with the approval of the Dean of the Division
of Agriculture, as may be especially adapted to their needs; but in no case can courses
based on prerequisites not yet completed be undertaken.
Requirements for Graduation 79
ADVANCED DEGREES
The degree of master of science is conferred upon graduates
of this College and of other institutions after all the require-
ments incident to the bestowal of the degree have been com-
plied with.
For graduates of this institution up to, and including, the
class of 1916, the work for the degree of master of science
consists of ninety-six credit units. The work of applicants
who are graduates of other institutions is evaluated by a
committee consisting of the chairman of the committee on
advanced credit and of the dean of the division and the head
of the department in which the major is to be taken, and the
student is given proper standing.
Forty-eight of the required ninety-six credit units are des-
ignated as supplementary minors, and are to be derived from
studies that are intended to strengthen the student's general
preparation ; the remaining forty-eight are taken from studies
of a special nature. Of the forty-eight credit units derived
from special training, thirty-two are given to the major sub-
ject and sixteen to the minors. The nature and distribution
@f the major and minors are determined in each individual
case by a committee, consisting of the dean of the division and
the head of the department in which the major is taken. Of
the forty-eight credit units derived from special training,
thirty-two may be allowed for original research ; sixteen, desig-
nated as minors, must be obtained from departments other
than that in which the major is taken. A candidate may be
allowed not to exceed six credit units for investigational work
done in line of instruction or department investigations, either
in this institution or elsewhere. Whether this is considered a
part of the major or a part of the minor depends on the char-
acter of the work. Candidates for the master's degree are re-
quired to spend at least nine months in resident advanced
study.
Credit units due an honor student are applied on supple-
mentary minors. In case a student nearing graduation has
time, he may be permitted, by arrangement with the dean of
the division and the head of the department in which he ex-
pects to do the major work, to spend his extra time on studies
which will count toward the degree of master of science.
A thesis consisting of a clear statement of the investigation
of some worthy original problem is required. The candidate
is subjected to a rigid oral examination, covering both the
general and special fields of his preparation, including his
thesis, by a committee consisting of the dean of the division,
the heads of the departments in which his major and regular
minors have been taken, and the chairman of the standing
committee on graduate study.
80 Kansas State Agricultural College
The full responsibility for the successful conduct of the
graduate work is lodged in a representative standing commit-
tee of the Faculty, consisting of five members selected by the
President, and this committee has the right to pass on all
courses offered, on all assignments taken out, and on the stand-
ing of all graduate students.

General Information
DUTIES AND PRIVILEGES
Good conduct in general, such as becomes men and women
everywhere, is expected of all students. Every possible aid
and stimulus toward the development of sound and rational
character, and toward the formation of high standards of
personal honor and ideals of conduct, is given by the various
Christian organizations of the College and the town. Every
student is accordingly expected to render a good account of
himself in the College community life. For those who are
high-minded and reasonable, no other requirements need be
expected. On the other hand, the demands of the College life
leave no room for the idle or self-indulgent, for those who are
too reckless to accept reasonable or wholesome restraint, or
for those who are too careless or indifferent to take proper
advantage of their opportunities. The College discipline is
confined chiefly to sending away those whose conduct, after
fair trial, makes their further attendance at the College un-
profitable or inadvisable.
Absences from class or laboratory periods must be accounted
for to the instructor concerned. Permission for absence from
College for one or more days must be secured in advance from
the dean of the division in which the student is registered.
Students can not honorably leave the College before the close
of a term except by previous arrangement with the deans con-
cerned.
Opportunities for general scientific, literary, and forensic
training are afforded, in addition to the College courses, by
various literary and scientific societies and clubs. The Science
Club, meeting monthly, admits to membership all instruc-
tors and students interested in science. The College branch of
the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, the Agricul-
tural Association, and the Architectural Club admit to their
membership young men interested in the fields indicated by
their names. Of the strictly literary and debating clubs, the
Alpha Beta and the Franklin are open to both sexes; the
Ionian, the Eurodelphian, and the Browning are women's
societies ; the Webster, the Hamilton, and the Athenian admit
only young men to membership. In the School of Agriculture
there are three literary societies, two for young men, the Lin-
coln and the Representative, and one for young women, the
Philomathian.
At various times during the year, the College halls are
opened for social, literary, musical, and dramatic entertain-
82 Kansas State Agricultural College
ments furnished by lecture courses, by the literary societies,
by the Department of Music, by the Dramatic Club, by the
Oratorical Association, and by other organizations of students
and instructors. Addresses by prominent speakers, men of
affairs, and persons prominent in scientific, educational, and
social work are of frequent occurrence.
EXPENSES
Tuition is free. An incidental fee of three dollars a term is
charged all students resident in Kansas. For nonresidents, a
matriculation, or entrance, fee of ten dollars, and an incidental
fee of ten dollars a term, are charged. A medical fee of fifty
cents a term is also collected from each student, in return for
which he receives medical treatment in case of sickness. Class
instruction in music is free; for individual instruction a fee
is required. In all laboratories students are required to pay
for apparatus broken or lost and for supplies. No other fees
are charged. Rooms and board are not furnished by the
College. Table board in private families and at boarding
houses varies from $3.25 to $4.50 a week, the average being
about $3.75. Rooms are obtainable at from $5 to $10 a month
when occupied by one person, $8 to $12 when occupied by two.
The highest-priced accommodations include light, heat, and
bath.
The College Young Men's Christian Association offers ac-
commodations in its building to a limited number of students,
at prices from $10 to $13 a month "for rooms with modern con-
veniences, and $3.25 a week for table board. As the number
of rooms in the building is limited, applications should be made
to the secretary of the association a year in advance. Board
can usually be obtained at any time.
Some students board themselves at less cost than the prices
charged for table board, and unfurnished rooms may some-
times be obtained very cheaply. Washing costs from 50 to 75
cents a dozen pieces. Books cost on the average about $5 a
term.
Each young man who takes military drill is required to have
a military uniform, costing about $15, and each young woman
who takes physical training must have a physical-training suit,
costing about $4. Ordinary expenditures, aside from clothing
and traveling expenses, range from $175 to $300 a year.
SELF-SUPPORT
The courses of instruction are based upon the supposition
that the student is here for study, and therefore a proper grasp
of the subjects can not be obtained by the average student
unless the greater part of his time is given to college work.
Students of limited means are encouraged and aided in every
possible way, but unless exceptionally strong, both mentally
General Information 83
and physically, such students are advised to take lighter work
by extending their courses, in case they are obliged to give any
considerable time to self-support. As a rule, a student should
be prepared with means for at least a term, as some time is
required in which to make acquaintances and to learn where
suitable work may be obtained.
There are various lines in which students may find employ-
ment. The College itself employs labor to the extent of about
$1200 a month, at rates varying from 15 to 20 cents an
hour, according to the nature of the employment and the
experience of the employee. Most of this labor is upon the
College farm, in the orchards and gardens, in the shops and
the printing-office, for the janitor, etc. Various departments
utilize student help to a considerable extent during the vaca-
tions. Students demonstrating exceptional efficiency, ability,
and trustworthiness obtain limited employment in special
duties about the College. Many students secure employment
in various lines in the town, and some opportunity exists for
obtaining board in exchange for work, with families either in
town or in the neighboring country. Labor is universally re-
spected in the College community, and the student who remains
under the necessity of earning his way will find himself abso-
lutely unhampered 1 by discouraging social conditions. False
standards regarding physical work do not exist, and are not
tolerated by the board of instruction or by the student body as
a whole. Absolutely democratic standards prevail at the Col-
lege, and students are judged on the basis of their personal
worth and efficiency alone.
Students are assisted to obtain employment by means of the
employment bureaus maintained by the Young Men's Christian
Association and by the Young Women's Christian Association
of the College, with secretaries of which organizations corre-
spondence is encouraged. New students are also met at the
trains by committees from these two bodies, and are assisted
in the finding of rooms, and in various other helpful ways.
BUSINESS DIRECTIONS
General information concerning the College may be obtained
from the President or the Secretary. Financial matters are
handled through the office of the Financial Secretary.
Scientific and practical questions, and requests for special
advice along lines in which the College and the Experiment
Stations are prepared to give information, should be addressed
to the heads of the departments concerned with the work in
which the information is sought.
Applications for farmers' institutes should be made as early
in the season as possible to the Division of College Extension.
Applications for the publications of the Agricultural Experi-
84 Kansas State Agricultural College
ment Station should be addressed: Director of the Agricul-
tural Experiment Station, Manhattan, Kan.
Donations to the Library should be addressed to the Libra-
rian, and donations to the Museum to the Curator of the
Museum.
STUDENT ASSEMBLY
The Student Assembly is held from ten until ten-thirty
o'clock on four mornings of each week. At this time, offices,
class rooms and laboratories are closed and the students gather
en masse in the College Auditorium. These assembly exercises
consist of devotional services, music, and addresses. The
devotional exercises are conducted by members of the Faculty,
by resident ministers of the various denominations, or by
prominent visitors. Excellent music is provided by the Col-
lege Orchestra, by members of the Department of Music, and
by available outside talent. In addition to the short, pointed
addresses delivered by the President and by members of the
Faculty, many prominent leaders of state and national reputa-
tion are invited to address the assembly. Thus the Student As-
sembly has become a center of true culture and enlightenment.
Although attendance is not compulsory, it is common to see
nearly two thousand enthusiastic students present during these
exercises.
COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS
The official organ of the College is The Kansas Industrialist,
published weekly by. the Department of Industrial Journalism,
and printed at the College by the Department of Printing. Its
pages are filled with articles of interest, with special reference
to agriculture and the industries. Particular attention is paid
to information concerning the work of the College, to investi-
gations of the Experiment Stations, and to local and alumni
news. The Kansas Industrialist will be sent to any address
for seventy-five cents a year. The alumni may have The Kan-
sas Industrialist free upon application.
The Department of College Extension issues a monthly pub-
lication entitled Agricultural Education, of special interest to
institute members. The students of the College publish a semi-
weekly periodical, The Kansas Aggie, formerly "The Students'
Herald/ 9 in the interest of the students at large. This paper is
edited and managed by a staff elected by students. A College
annual, Royal Purple, is published each year by the senior
class.
EXAMINATIONS
Examinations are held at the last regular recitation periods
of the respective studies at the end of each term. Whether the
examination is to extend over the last two periods or over one
only is left to the decision of the individual instructor. Ex-
General Information 85
aminations to remove conditions are held on the next to the
last Saturday of each term. A student who has received the
grade C is entitled to take such special examination, provided
the instructor be notified of the student's desire to take the
examination not later than the Tuesday evening preceding the
Saturday set for the examinations. A grade of P only is to
be reported for a student who passes the examination to re-
move a condition. A grade of F is to be reported for one who
fails to pass. If a subject in which a student is conditioned is
not passed at the first opportunity, the grade is changed from
C to F. The instructor will report as incomplete (I) any stu-
dent whose work, while satisfactory in quality, is lacking in
the quantity required. The grade I in such cases is removed
when the student completes the required quantity of work in a
satisfactory manner. With the consent of the head of the de-
partment, incomplete work may be made up outside of class,
but if it is not made up by the last Saturday of the first term
during which the student is in attendance following the term in
which the deficiency occurred, the student's grade is changed
from I to F, and he is required to make up the work by repeat-
ing it in a regular class. Incomplete work made up is to be re-
ported as P.
Permission for examination in subjects not taken in class
must be obtained, on recommendation of the professor in
charge, from the dean of the division in which the student is
assigned, at least two months before the examination is held.
Permission to take such examination is not granted unless the
preparation for it is made under an approved tutor. All such
examinations are under the immediate supervision of the pro-
fessor in whose department the subject falls.
GRADES
Students' grades are based upon the completed work of a
term, and are designated by letters having the following sig-
nification and rank :
E, excellent; G, good; P, passed; C, conditioned; I, incomplete (applied
to all work which is satisfactory as to quality, but not as to quantity) ; P,
failed.
Any student who receives a grade of E for the term, in
any subject, and who is charged with not to exceed six absences
for all causes from the class in such subject during the term,
may be excused from the final examination in that subject, at
the discretion of the instructor; provided, however, that in-
structors are to announce such exemption lists in their re-
spective subjects not earlier than the last session of the class
preceding the final examinations.
Examinations to remove conditions are reported simply as
P (passed) or F (failed), and such examinations not taken,
or taken and not passed, are recorded as F (failed) .
86 Kansas State Agricultural College
PENALTIES
A student who at the end of the term receives grades below
passing in fifty per cent or more of the work to which he is as-
signed is required to leave college for at least one term unless
there are sufficiently extenuating circumstances, in which case
his dean may suspend the rule and allow an assignment to
twelve credit units of work.
Any student who, at the end of a term, receives grades below
passing in twenty-five per cent of his assigned work is al-
lowed not more than seventy-five per cent of regular work the
next term.
Any student who is found to be persistently inattentive to
study is at once temporarily suspended by his dean, and re-
ported to the President for permanent suspension.
HONORS
In each of the divisions of the College "junior honors" are
awarded at Commencement to not more than five per cent of
the junior class having the highest standing up to the close of
the junior year.
In a similar manner "senior honors" are awarded to not ex-
ceeding five per cent of the senior class having the highest
standing to the close of the senior year.
Any student achieving senior honors receives two credit
units toward the master's degree; a student achieving both
junior and senior honors receives six credit units toward the
master's degree.
The following is the system of awarding honor points : The
grades received by the student carry plus and minus "points"
as follows :
Grade E (excellent) carries + 2 points.
Grade G (good) carries -f- 1 point.
Grade P (passed) carries point.
Grade C (conditioned) carries — 1 point.
Grade F (failed) carries — 2 points.
When grade C (conditioned) is subsequently changed by
the examination to remove a condition to grade P (passed) or
grade F (failed) the points are changed accordingly.
In the estimation of honor points, the number of points at-
tached to any given grade is multiplied by the number of hours
a week required in the subject. In the case of a subject con-
sisting wholly or in part of shop practice or laboratory work,
one-half the number of hours required in such shop practice or
laboratory work is taken in computing the multiplying f actor.
The award of honors is to those achieving the highest alge-
braic sum of honor points, according to the foregoing schedule,
and under the limitations provided above.
General Information 87
CEEDITS FOR EXTRA WORK
Activities connected with the College, but not provided for
by any of the courses of study, either as required subjects or as
electives, are designated as extra subjects.
No credit is given for extra work of any kind unless the
student is regularly assigned to it in accordance with the gen-
eral rules governing assignments, and it is done under the
constant supervision of a College officer, who sees that a proper
standard is maintained and reports a grade for record.
No student may be assigned to extra work for credit except
upon the written recommendation of the instructor in charge of
the work. This recommendation is filed in the office of the stu-
dent's dean, and is effective until revoked.
Credits earned for extra work may be counted as part or all
of the electives in any of the College courses. In courses that
do not include electives, credits for extra work are available
only as substitutions for required work, and must be approved
in the regular way before becoming effective. A total of not
more than twelve credit units may be allowed a student for
extra work, and not more than two credits may be obtained in
any one term.
The credit units that may be allowed for extra work are as
follows :
Subject. Per term. Total.
Physical training 1 6
Military drill (unpaid) 1 6
Orchestra 1 6
Band 1 6
Glee Club 1 6

CLASSES
The minimum numbers for which classes are organized are
as follows :
School of Agriculture 18
Freshmen or Sophomores 12
Juniors or Seniors 7
This rule is varied only by special permission of the Board
of Administration.
Kansas State Agricultural College
School of Agriculture
The School of Agriculture is organized to meet the needs of
young men and young women of Kansas who may need in-
struction more closely identified with the life of the farm,
home and shop than that provided by the high schools of the
State. It is also intended to meet the needs of those men and
women who find themselves for any cause unable to complete
an extensive course of collegiate instruction, yet who feel the
necessity of a practical training for their activities in life.
More than one-half of the student's time in the school will be
spent in the laboratories and in contact with the real objects
of his future work. An element of culture and general infor-
mation is provided for in three years of English for each
course, and in work in history, economics, citizenship, physics,
and chemistry.
The School of Agriculture is not a school preparatory to
the College. Its sole purpose is to fit men and women for life
in the open country, and to make country life more attractive ;
to make the workshop more efficient;. in short, to dignify and
to improve industrial life. It is not established to entice
students away from the high school. It is for those of every
walk in life who wish a larger view and greater skill in doing
the world's work.
All the resources of the College are at the disposal of the
School of Agriculture. Its students have every advantage
possessed by students in the College.
THE COURSE OF STUDY
The course in agriculture emphasizes the growing of crops
and the raising of live stock. A minimum of theory and a
maximum of practical work will bring the student into close
contact with the actual conditions of farm life.
The course in domestic science emphasizes the care of the
home. Home decoration, home sanitation, cookery and sewing
receive careful attention.
The course in mechanic arts leads to a trade. It is designed
to shorten the time of apprenticeship and to prepare the way
for skilled workmanship in shop or factory. The great amount
of time spent in the shops should easily lead to skill and
efficiency in subsequent work.
School of Agriculture 89
ADMISSION
Students who are fourteen years of age or older and who
have completed the eighth grade of the public schools are
admitted without examination. Students who have not com-
pleted the eighth grade are examined in arithmetic, United
States history, English grammar, geography, reading, and
spelling. Students who have done work in the public high
schools receive credit for the work done. Maturity in years
and practical experience are given due consideration, but stu-
dents should not consider these qualifications alone sufficient
to admit them. Wherever there is question about a student's
qualifications for entering, he should correspond with the
Principal of the School of Agriculture before coming.
TIME OF OPENING
All candidates for admission to the School of Agriculture
should present themselves for registration at the College Sep-
tember 14 to 17, inclusive. The Principal of the School of
Agriculture is charged with the execution of all College and
Faculty rules relating to the enrollment of students in classes
and 'their choice of studies.
It is greatly to the advantage of the prospective student to
see to it that his certificate of graduation, properly filled out,
be sent to the College as soon as possible after graduation.
A permit to register will then be sent him by the Eegistrar in
advance of his coming in September ; this will greatly facilitate
the work of entrance. The student will present this permit
at the registration room in Nichols Gymnasium and will not
be compelled to wait his turn to meet the committee on ad-
mission.
Upon registration each student receives a certificate of his
standing, which he presents to the Principal of the school, who
is charged with the duty of enrolling students in classes,
selecting and arranging subjects, and assigning hours.
GRADES AND FAILURES
Examinations are held at stated periods and at such other
times as the Faculty ,may provide. Absence from examina-
tion, or ten or more unexcused absences from class periods,
sever a student's connection with the institution, which con-
nection can be renewed only through the action of the Prin-
cipal of the school. Any withdrawal from school or class
must be authorized by the Principal; otherwise, continued
absence is construed as failure. Parents or guardians are
furnished a copy of the record of the student's work at the
close of any term if they so desire.

Fifty-first Annual Catalogue 119
Division of Agriculture
William M Jardine, Dean,
The teaching of a rational, practical system of agriculture is
fundamental to industrial development in a State whose prin-
cipal resources are derived from agricultural pursuits. This
State has permanent prosperity in direct proportion to the
producing capacity of her land. The unit of production is the
acre, and the most successful farmer is necessarily the one
who can produce, at minimum cost, a maximum quantity of
the best quality of agricultural products to the acre.
In order to do this, it is necessary to know something of the
soil, the conservation of its fertility and moisture, and its
proper cultivation ; the kinds of plants to grow and how to im-
prove them; the selection, breeding and feeding of live stock;
the maintenance of orchards, gardens, and attractive sur-
roundings; farm buildings, and the equipment of the farm
home with modern conveniences ; the best methods of market-
ing the products of the farm ; and, in addition to all this, the
making of the farm home the center of influence for good
citizenship and fellowship in the neighborhood.
A man may get many of these things through practical ex-
perience, and thus become an exponent of modern farming,
but the cost entailed is usually unnecessarily great. The
Agricultural College furnishes a means of acquiring a system-
atic and practical training in agriculture, which fits young
men adequately for the farm, at a minimum of time and finan-
cial cost.
EQUIPMENT.
The facilities for such training in this College are of the
best. The College owns 748 acres of land, which is used for
instruction and demonstration in the various courses in agri-
culture and allied branches. The campus, which comprises
160 acres, affords one of the best examples of ornamental tree
planting and forestry in the State. Students working daily
amid such surroundings can scarcely fail to gain an apprecia-
tion of and love for the beautiful. A tract of 320 acres, pur-
chased with an appropriation made by the legislature of 1909,
is devoted to the work in agronomy. For horticultural and
forestry work, eighty acres are used; for dairy work, about
seventy acres ; and for animal husbandry purposes, 140 acres.
The herds and flocks contain all the important breeds of dairy
and beef cattle, hogs, horses, and sheep, among which are in-
cluded the world's champion steers of a recent international
120 Kansas State Agricultural College
stock show at Chicago, and many animals that have won
championships at local and state fairs in the past five years.
With this class of stock available for the work in judging, the
student is supplied with types of the best breeds, and becomes
familiar with these types by actual handling of the stock.
The College has one of the best-equipped schools of veteri-
nary medicine in the West. It is rated in class "A" by the
United States Department of Agriculture, which rating places
it among the best in the United States and Canada. In addi-
tion to giving the student the best possible technical training
in veterinary medicine, the course is designed to give the
broad culture necessary for men who are to take their place in
society and public affairs. Professional men, such as veteri-
narians, are placed in a more or less public relation to the
community they serve. They must have a broad groundwork
in cultural and ethical training, which will win them the con-
fidence and respect of their communities. Success is measured
in something more than dollars and cents, and the man whose
view of life is no broader than his profession adds but little
to the world and its happiness. The training given by the
College in veterinary science, as in all its courses in agricul-
ture, seeks to emphasize the value of the man as a man, as
much as his value as a specialist in agriculture.
COURSES OF STUDY
The various needs of the student are met by offering in the
division of agriculture the following courses:
A four-year course in agriculture.
A four-year course in veterinary medicine.
A three-year secondary course in agriculture.
A two-year short winter course in agriculture.
A two-year short winter course in dairying.
A one-year short winter course in dairy manufactures.
A short course in testing dairy products.
DEGREES AND CERTIFICATES.
The four-year course in agriculture leads. to the degree of
bachelor of science in agriculture. The four-year course in
veterinary medicine leads to the degree of doctor of veterinary
medicine. A certificate in agriculture is granted to a student
completing the three-year course. A short-course certificate
is granted to a student completing either of the two-year short
courses in agriculture.
The four-year course in agriculture is designed to meet the
needs primarily of the students who expect to return to the
farm. However, the student who completes any of the courses
offered will have had sufficient training to enable him to enter
some one of the many lines of agricultural industry as a
specialist. The demand for men thus trained is constantly
Division of Agriculture 121
increasing, and such positions offer attractive opportunities
for men who by nature and training are adapted to the work.
The United States Department of Agriculture, the state col-
leges and departments of agriculture, high schools, private
institutions of secondary and college rank, and a great variety
of commercial interests, are constantly demanding men
trained in agriculture.
The young man who expects to make farming his life work
can start with no better asset than the thorough training in
practical and scientific agriculture afforded by the four-year
course. The American farmer needs more of the skill that
comes through the training of the hand, in order that he may
better do the work of farming; but infinitely more, he needs
the training of the mind in the fundamental truths that lie
back of every operation in farming, in order that he may use
the skill of the craftsman with reason and judgment. One
may learn to plow a field with the greatest skill ; the work may
be a model of its kind. If, however, it is plowed with utter
disregard of the moisture conditions which prevail, the result
may be a failure. To understand the conditions which should
determine when and how to plow is the work of the trained
mind ; the other is the work of the trained hand. The farmer
and the teacher in farming must possess both kinds of train-
ing, and the courses of study have been revised with this fact
in view, and have been so arranged that the student begins
his practical training in agriculture on the first day he enters
College, and continues it throughout the course.
THE COURSE IN AGRICULTURE.
Two hundred fourteen credits in addition to military drill
are required for graduation, as follows :
Credits,
Prescribed agriculture 55
Electives in agriculture required, with their prerequisites 35 to 40
Required in agriculture 90 to 95
Prescribed in nonagriculture 107
Electives in nonagriculture required 17 to 12
Required in nonagriculture 124 to 119
Total term hours for graduation 214 214
Only those students will be allowed to graduate who have
had at least six months' practical experience in agriculture,
approved by the Dean of the Division of Agriculture, and who
have elected (including the prerequisites) twenty credits
within a department of the Division of Agriculture. The pre-
requisites are to be other than those in the required work.
The student who completes the freshman and sophomore
years will have had, in addition to the fundamental work in
122 Kansas State Agricultural College
chemistry, zoology, and botany, practical studies each term
in farm crops, cattle, hogs, horses, sheep, dairying, poultry,
horticulture, and farm mechanics. These two years give the
student a general knowledge of the whole range of practical
agriculture. One-third of the student's time is devoted to
these subjects.
During the junior and senior years the student continues
his studies of fundamental science, and learns to apply science
to practical agriculture. He is led step by step to 'understand
the scientific relation of every farming operation. There is
so much agriculture to be taught that it becomes necessary
for the student to choose in which of the general lines he will
find that which best suits his needs or liking. This is made
possible by numerous electives in soils, crops, farm machinery,
animal husbandry, dairying, horticulture, milling, and poultry.
The foundation of all agricultural work is the soil and the
crops grown upon it. Success in live stock or dairying de-
pends, in a great measure, upon the ability of the soil to pro-
duce, with economy, sufficient crops of the right character.
Success in grain farming depends wholly on the productive-
ness of the soil and the selection of the crops and of methods
of culture adapted to the region under cultivation.
THE COURSE IN VETERINARY MEDICINE
Veterinary medicine has made remarkable advances within
recent years, and is taking its place alongside human medicine
as a science. In truth, medical science and veterinary science
are but specialized branches of the same science, and must be
developed together. The modern veterinarian takes his place
in the community as a professional man of education and
culture. With the general improvement of the live stock on
the farms, and with their advance in value, there is constant
increase in the demand for skilled physicians to care for them.
The veterinarian, while primarily trained to conserve the
health of farm animals, has a yet larger service to render in
preventing diseases common to both man and beast from being
communicated from domestic anim.als to man. Moreover, he
must see that the animals slaughtered for meat are healthy and
that the products are handled, under such conditions as render
them suitable for human food.
The public is now demanding that milk and other food
products be free from contamination, and that they be in-
capable of transmitting dangerous diseases, like tuberculosis^
typhoid fever, scarlet fever, and diphtheria. There is ample
work for all of the thoroughly competent veterinarians that
the colleges of the country will train.
The course in veterinary medicine at the Agricultural Col-
lege was established to give the young men of this State
an opportunity to pursue these studies in an agricultural
Division of Agriculture 123
environment, where the facilities offered by other branches
of the College would be at their command. While the instruc-
tion in this course is largely technical, enough subjects of a
general character are included to give a sound education and a
broad outlook.
Better to fit the veterinarian to deal wisely with the live-
stock problems which he has to meet, he is required to take
the work in stock feeding, stock breeding, stock judging, pedi-
grees, milk inspection, vertebrate zoology, embryology, and
agricultural economics, in addition to his purely professional
work.
The diploma from this school is recognized by the United
States Department of Agriculture, by the United States Civil
Service Commission, by the American Veterinary Medical
Association, and by the various examining boards of the sev-
eral states and territories of America where it has been pre-
sented.
THREE-YEAR COURSE IN AGRICULTURE
The purpose of the three-year course is to furnish practical,
systematic training in agriculture to persons of mature judg-
ment who are unable to meet the college entrance requirements.
The work is given by the regular members of the College
Faculty. This course, throughout, emphasizes the practical
phases of agriculture. The necessity for a thorough under-
standing of the fundamental principles that form the founda-
tion upon which agricultural practices are built is, however,
not lost sight of, and as much of this phase of the work is
given as the student's preparation will permit.

The College farm used by the Department of Agronomy comprises 320
acres of medium rolling upland soil, well suited to experimental and
demonstration work. It is well equipped with all kinds of farm machinery
necessary in crop production. The general fields and experimental plots
used for the breeding and testing of farm crops, and for conducting soil-
fertility experiments and experiments in methods of soil culture, afford
the student excellent opportunities for study and investigation.
A large and well-equipped laboratory for soil physics and soil-fertility
work is maintained for the regular use of students. Laboratories for
grain judging and crop judging are maintained for students taking this
work. Material is provided for the use of the students in the study and
determination of the grains and forages best adapted to different pur-
poses and most suitable for growing under different soil and climatic
conditions. Ample greenhouse space is provided for the students' use in
germinating seeds under varying soil-moisture conditions, at different
depths of planting, and with varying degrees of temperature; and for
research work in soils during the winter months.
The farm-mechanics laboratory is well supplied with representative
types of farm machinery for demonstration and illustrative purposes in
farm mechanics. Different makes of all kinds of farm machinery are
supplied by implement manufacturers for study and investigation.
The Department of Agronomy offers courses in grain judging, crop
production, soil physics, soil fertility, soil surveying, farm mechanics,
irrigation and drainage, and farm management.
The following detailed description of courses will give a definite under-
standing of each subject given, its position in the course, and the pro-
portion of time devoted to class and to laboratory work.

17.-—Farm Management. Senior year, winter term. Lectures and
recitations, three hours; laboratory, two hours. Four credits. Required
in the course in agriculture; elective in the course in general science.
Prerequisites: Forage Crops, Soil Fertility.
The purpose of this course is: first, to assemble and correlate the
principles involved in the agricultural subjects taught in the institution;
second, to aid the student in applying these principles to the successful
management of a farm. Lectures are given on the points to be considered
in the selection of a farm, on types of farming, on the planning and
arrangement of the farmstead and of the fields and the crops; on the
ease, cost and methods of marketing different farm products. Different
regions are discussed with especial reference to their adaptability to
certain types of farming. Farm records and accounts are kept. The
labor question is analyzed. The distribution of capital, its relation to
profit, and the relation of live stock to crop production and to the
maintenance of a permanent agriculture, receive consideration. Rural
conditions with respect to people, roads, schools, churches and social
conveniences also find consideration in the course. Methods of renting
and leasing farms are discussed, and their important points emphasized.
Laboratory. — At the beginning of the course the student is required
to furnish plans and inventories of his own farm or of a farm with
which he is familiar, together with a financial record of one year's
actual operations. The farm is then replanned in accordance with the
principles developed in this course. Whenever practicable, neighboring
farms are visited and studied with the idea of securing first-hand in-
formation as to the farm plan, especially with respect to the arrange-
ment of the fields, to the buildings, to the farmstead, and to the rotation
of crops used. Text, Warren's Farm Management.

The Department of Animal Husbandry owns about 140 acres of land
and rents 460 acres for the maintenance of herds and flocks of pure-bred
horses, cattle, sheep, and hogs. The College live stock has attained a
national reputation among breeders and feeders on account of the many
prize-winning animals produced.
The feed yards and barns are well arranged for experimental feeding
and the maintenance of the herds. The laboratory of the animal hus-
bandry student is, as a matter of fact, the feed yard and the animal. He
studies the animal from the standpoint of the breeder and of the feeder,
and learns to combine the needs of each and to find these qualities ex-
emplified in the perfect animal.
The courses of study in this department are so arranged as to give
the student special instruction in the selection, breeding, feeding, market-
ing and management of all classes of live stock. Attention is also given
to the sanitary conditions and treatment of the more common forms of
disease to which the animals are subject.

The College dairy farm, including the buildings and yards, consists of
about seventy acres of medium upland. This land is used for growing
corn, alfalfa, and other crops, such as cowpeas, field peas, and sorghum,
and for the pasture of the dairy herd.
The barn is built on the most approved model for the housing of
dairy cattle, and is light, well-ventilated, and sanitary, with stalls for
seventy cows. Three silos of modern type, feed rooms, a milk room, a
boiler room, and a laboratory exist in connection with the barn. Each
of these illustrates some especially desirable feature in dairy building and
construction.
The dairy herd consists of excellent types of the four dairy breeds:
Jersey, Guernsey, Ayrshire, arid Holstein. These animals are pure-bred
and a number have been entered in the advanced registry of their re-
spective breeds. The excellence of the dairy herd is shown by an average
production for the past year of over 400 pounds of butter by the Guern-
seys, 475 pounds by the Ayrshires, over 500 pounds by the Jerseys, and
572 pounds by the Holsteins. Maid Henry, a thirteen-year-old Holstein,
produced 19,600 pounds of milk, yielding 835 pounds of butter in one year.
The Owl's Design ranks high among the Jerseys of the world, with a
record of 14,606 pounds of milk produced in one year. She has also pro-
duced 758 pounds" of butter in a year.
The dairy building houses the creamery, the cheese rooms, the class-
rooms, and the offices, and the necessary laboratories for testing and
hand-separator work. Refrigeration is secured from a small refrigerat-
ing machine and ice plant installed in the building. These facilities of
barn, herd, and laboratories are in constant use by the students of dairy-
ing. The instruction in dairy husbandry includes the study of the selec-
tion and breeding of dairy animals, the production of milk, its manu-
facture into butter, cheese, and other dairy products, or its sale on the
market.

well provided. It has over thirty large microscopes, equipped with both
high and low power, and several oil immersion objectives, microtomes, the
best reflectoscope and projectoscope obtainable, besides a large assort-
ment of histological and pathological slides, materials, and specimens for
use in demonstration work in class and laboratory.
The equipment for instruction in physiology is ample to give the stu-
dent a thoroughly comprehensive course of laboratory study.
For the study of materia medica and pharmacy there is a general phar-
macy laboratory containing all the drugs used in the practice of veter-
inary medicine, and a practicing pharmacy where medicines are com-
pounded for the every-day practice connected with the College.
For instruction in surgery and clinic the equipment is excellent. The
surgical amphitheater is an annex to the main Veterinary Building, seat-
ing over three hundred people, and equipped with every modern appliance
Division of Agriculture 147
for performing before the classes the most delicate operations upon both
large and small animals. The hospital has a capacity of about thirty-
animals and is nearly always filled with patients, which gives ample ma-
terial for the study of internal medicine as well. The out-clinic furnishes
several thousand cases yearly, giving the student opportunity to become
familiar with the diseases and their treatment under the guidance of
proficient practitioners.
The policy adhered to in the instruction in all the departments is that
the science of veterinary medicine is the foundation, and the art merely
supplementary. A thorough drill is given in the foundation studies, and
later in the course practical application of these is made in actual field
work. This results in a thoroughly scientific veterinary education.
COURSES IN ANATOMY
A few years ago there was inaugurated an entirely different method of
anatomical instruction, hitherto untried in any school of human or vet-
erinary medicine, and its success was so marked that it has become a
permanent feature of the teaching of the department. Anatomy I, in-
cluding dissection, takes up the bones of the trunk, L e., the vertebrae, ribs,
sternum, and pelvis. The ligaments which hold these bones together are
next considered, and are followed immediately by a study of the muscles
of the trunk, which inclose the abdominal and thoracic cavities. The
student is now ready to fill in and locate properly, and to study thoroughly,
the important organs in these two body cavities. This work is immediately
followed by the study of the blood supply of these organs, and this in
turn by the study of the nerve supply controlling them, including that of
the spinal cord, the vessels and nerves being carried to their point of
exit from the trunk.
After the completion of Anatomy I of this course, the student has
actually seen and dissected every essential organ in its gross anatomy,
and to some extent in its microscopic. He is now thoroughly prepared
for the study of histology, after which follows physiology, or the func-
tional study of organs, and the details of their cell structure.
The limbs, the main functions of which are locomotion, are, together
with the head and neck, usually in need of surgical rather than of medic-
inal treatment in veterinary practice. The practitioner, therefore, re-
quires an extremely accurate knowledge of these parts, and when this
anatomical study is brought closer in point of time to the study of surgery
concerned, its practical application emphasizes the essential facts most
effectively. By mutual consent, the dissection by one class occurs every
morning at seven o'clock, thus giving higher classmen who desire to
specialize in anatomy an opportunity to review the work, and to demon-
strate by working with and by assisting the under classmen.
Before dissecting the ligaments and muscles of any part, the student
is required to study them upon a mounted skeleton, thus ascertaining the
exact points at which they attach to the bones. He then goes over the
same muscles and ligaments on the Azoux model, afterwards dissecting
them and proving the facts already learned, thereby acquiring a perfect
mental picture of the animal body.
148 Kansas State Agricultural College
In Anatomy I, II, III, and IV each student is required to pass one
perfect examination upon the origins and insertions of all the equine
muscles of the part dissected, and he is marked, not upon the degree of
perfection of the examination, but upon whether perfection • was accom-
plished in the first, second, third, or fourth trial. He must also give a
satisfactory tree outline of the circulatory and nervous systems, showing
their distribution and branches, and their relationships. A satisfactory
knowledge of the nerve supply of each muscle and of each cutaneous area
is required.
In the winter term of the freshman year the class is divided into two
equal sections, one half studying the anterior limb, in Anatomy II, and
the other half studying the posterior limb, in Anatomy III, while the
reverse arrangement is followed in the spring term.
The dissecting room is situated in the basement of the Veterinary
Building, and possesses the best of sanitary and other equipment. The
instruction in the classroom consists of quizzes, recitations, special dis-
sections of the part under discussion, and a study of the Azoux model of
the horse. Mounted skeletons and limbs and loose bones are abundant
in the museum.
The subjects for dissection are preserved by the injection of a formalde-
hyde solution, followed by a red-starch solution that hardens within and
fills the arteries. The veins are similarly treated with a bluish medium.
The subjects are further preserved by immersion in a large concrete tank
containing 15,000 pounds ol solution specially prepared for this purpose.
McFadgean's Osteology and Anatomy of the Horse is required in Anatomy
I, II, III, and IV; Sisson's Veterinary Anatomy is required in addition in
Anatomy V and VI, but those students who can afford it are urged to
purchase both at the beginning of the course.
1. — Anatomy I. Freshman year, fall term. Class work, one hour;
dissection, eleven hours. Six and one-half credits. Required in the course
in veterinary medicine; elective in other courses.

neurology of these parts, including the brain.
Dissection, — The course includes a very* thorough laboratory study of
the bones of the head, collectively and individually, special reference being
given to the teeth, sinuses, cavities, and foramina. The cephalic muscles,
the pharynx, the guttural pouches, the ear, the eye and the tongue are
then dissected, together with the brain.
3. — Anatomy III. Freshman year, spring term. Class work, one
hour; dissection, six hours. Four credits. Required in the course in

a manner exactly like the method employed in Anatomy II, but include
the study of the circulation of the foot.
5. — Anatomy V. Sophomore year, winter term. Class work, one
hour; dissection, six hours. Four credits. Required in the course in
veterinary medicine. Prerequisites: Anatomy I, II, III, and IV.
A correlative review of the entire subject, is given, taking successively
the bones, the ligaments, the muscles, the viscera, the blood vessels and
the nerves in their entirety, and in the order here specified. The loco-
motor, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive systems are then
dealt with in such a manner as to build up a mental image of each struc-
ture in the student's mind.
Dissection, — In the dissecting room each division of systematic anatomy
is taken up as a whole, each subject for dissection being preceded by
regional and flap dissections of the principal operative areas, and by the
isolation of the structures to be operated upon. The work also includes a
mapping out in crayon of the important structures beneath the skin of a
dark-colored horse. Textbook, Veterinary Anatomy, by Sisson.
6. — Anatomy VI. Sophomore year, spring term. Class work, one
hour; dissection, four hours. Three credits. Required in the course in
veterinary medicine.
This course consists of a comparative study, accompanied by work in
dissection, of the principal structural differences in the ox, sheep, hog,
dog, and chicken, upon the basis of the facts learned concerning the horse
in Anatomy I, II, III, IV, and V, which are prerequisites.
7. — Anatomy. Sophomore year, fall term. Ten hours laboratory.
Five credits. Required fall term, sophomore, agricultural courses.
The course is planned to give the agricultural students a general idea
of the anatomy of farm animals, together with comparative references
to many structures of the human body that are usually omitted in their
general education. The course aims to aid them in understanding con-
formations by means of the study and dissection of the structures beneath
the skin that modify it, at the same time observing the muscles of
locomotion and the various levers, both as regards speed and power or
draughting. Special attention is given to a thorough study of the foot,
to enable the student to understand its care and shoeing. Considerable
time is given to the digestive organs, to give the student a clear con-
ception of the known physiologico-anatomical phases of feeding, diges-
tion, nutrition, and metabolism. Text and laboratory guide, Osteology
and Anatomy of the Horse, by McFadgean.
COURSES IN HISTOLOGY
Lectures and recitations cover the work, which is done, in the labora-
tory. During the lectures the projectoscope is used to illustrate the
tissues studied. It is essential that the student obtain a thorough knowl-
edge of the manipulation of the microscope, of the microscopical struc-
ture of the normal animal tissues, and of the methods of fixing, embed-
ding, sectioning, staining and mounting tissues. This work gives the
foundation for the study of pathological histology. Each student must
prepare a full set of slides, from which he makes high- and low-power
drawings.

study of the proper shoeing for the correction of wry limbs and feet;
diseases of the feet, and the relation of horseshoeing thereto. The course
ends with a study of the shoeing of mules and oxen. Throughout the en-
tire course the purpose is to instill' in the mind of the student normal shoe-
ing, in order that he may be able to correct abnormalities in the foot
and limb in so far as this can be accomplished by shoeing. Reference
books: Lungwitz's Textbook of Horseshoeing; Dollar's Handbook of

A free clinic which affords an abundance of material is conducted.
All species of domesticated animals are presented for treatment. These
patients are assigned in regular order to the senior students for diagnosis
and treatment; clinic sheets are provided, on which are recorded the
history, symptoms, pulse, temperature, respiration, diagnosis, prognosis,
treatment, and the unsoundnesses, defects or blemishes of the animal.
The clinician in charge discusses all the abnormal conditions present in the
patient, thus assisting the student to develop his powers of observation.
The junior students assist the senior students and, in addition, are re-
quired to master, by practical experience, the restraint of animals,
bandaging, etc. The compounding of prescriptions, the preparation of
antiseptics and other medicinal agents, is taken "in charge by the junior
students.
Patients left at the hospital for treatment are assigned to seniors,
who are required to administer all medicines, change dressings of surgical
wounds, etc. All work is performed under the direct supervision of the
clinician in charge. Numerous country calls are received by the veteri-
nary department, which are taken care of by one of the clinicians, and
who is always accompanied by one or more senior students. This phase
of the work is particularly valuable, as it gives the student practical
experience under actual conditions.
41. — Meat Inspection. Senior year, spring term. Class work, four
hours. , Four credits. Required in the course in veterinary medicine.
The course in meat inspection is designed to prepare experts for
national, state and local sanitary work, which is being more strongly
urged and demanded every day. The kinds and classes of stock, the traffic
and transportation of animals, their inspection before death, their slaugh-
ter, the normal conditions of healthy animals, the diseases discernible at
the time of slaughter, the disposition of the condemned from economic,
hygienic and sanitary standpoints, and different preparations and methods
of preservation, adulterations, sanitary laws and regulations, and all
other points bearing upon the question of healthful meat production, are
considered. Visits are made to the local slaughtering establishments, and
to the large packing plants in Topeka, Kansas City, or Wichita. Text,

42. — Diseases of Farm Animals, and Obstetrics. Senior year,
spring term. Class work, four hours. Four credits. Required in the
courses in animal husbandry and dairy husbandry. Prerequisites: Gen-
eral Anatomy I and Animal Physiology.
This course is devoted to the study of the common diseases of farm
animals and to obstetrics. The subjects discussed include wounds and
their treatment, examining farm animals for disease, the diagnosis and
treatment of disease, the causes and treatment of contagious diseases.
Sanitary and other measures necessary for their eradication and pre-
vention are also studied. The instruction in obstetrics embraces a com-

pari son of the soft and bony structures of the pelvis in the different
animals, the comparison being made with reference to normal and difficult
parturition. The causes of sterility are discussed, and the necessary
remedies suggested. Attention is given to the accidents and diseases,
incidental to normal and difficult parturition. The diseases following
parturition and the diseases affecting the offspring are also dealt with.

Short Winter Courses in Agriculture and Dairying
The Agricultural College offers primarily four-year courses in agri-
culture, which give the student a fundamental training in the sciences
relating to agriculture, and their application to the production of crops
and stock and to farming in general. Such a course not only equips a
man to become a successful farmer, but makes of him a better citizen,
and a leader in the broader duties of life.
Not all young men who choose to farm have the time or the means to
spend the necessary four years in getting a college training. For such
who are at least eighteen years of age, the Agricultural College offers a
short, practical course in agriculture and dairying, given in two terms.
The entire time of the student is occupied in learning how to do the
various things which are necessary for the production of good crops and
good stock, and for the business management of the farm. The subjects
taught in such a course cover as much as can be given in the time, and
are made intensely practical in presentation. The student is taught why
and how to do the various farm operations.
DESCRIPTION OF SHORT COURSES
AGRICULTURE AND DAIRYING
The student may select either agriculture or dairying, or a combination
of the two, as may best suit his individual needs. All students are re-
quired to take crop production, live-stock production, poultry, and wood-
work the first year, and breeding and feeding of live stock, live-stock
sanitation, agricultural botany, soil physics, and blacksmithing the second
year. Other subjects offered are elective, enough being taken to make up
a full course of fifteen hours of class work and twenty-eight hours of
laboratory work a week.
The work in crop production and live-stock production gives a knowl-
edge of these subjects in a practical way. The student who has not taken
scientific work is not able to study them from the standpoint of one
trained in chemistry, physics, zoology, etc., but can get from his study
in class and laboratory the art of doing these things properly. The same
is true of dairying and horticulture. The farmer needs to know how to
select stock and crops that will be best adapted to his environment, and
the short courses train him to do this. He needs to know how to prepare
his soil for the reception of the seed; or so to manage his feed as to make
the greatest gains in feeding his live stock. These things are taught
successfully to short-course students.

Kansas State Agricultural College
Farm mechanics, as it relates to general farming or dairying and to
practice in woodwork, is taught in such a way as to make the student
capable of handling tools and machinery with proper skill.
The students who return for the second winter's work are given more
advanced work along the same lines that were studied the first year.
The problems of breeding and feeding, diseases of live stock, soil and
crop management, and the building up of pure-bred herds, are studied
from the standpoints of the purchaser, the breeder, and the farmer.

SUBJECTS TAUGHT IN THE SHORT COURSES
AGRONOMY
1. — Crop Production. Class work, four hours; laboratory, four hours.
Six credits. Required in the first year of the farmers' short course.
In this course such questions as time, depth, and manner of plowing;
seed-bed preparation ; time, rate, and method of seeding the various crops ;
crop rotation and cultivation, and farm soils are taken up in turn and
discussed in a practical way.
^Laboratory. — Special attention is given to the grain crops grown in
this State. Various types of different varieties of corn, wheat, oats, etc.,
are available for comparative study. The student has the opportunity to
handle and examine specimens of the common crops of this State — the
best possible method for becoming familiar with, the different plants.
2. — Farm Mechanics. Laboratory, two hours. One credit.
This is a new but very important line of work. There is probably a
greater waste on farms from lack of knowledge of the kind of machinery
to use, and of the way to care for it, than from any other cause. Me-
chanics in some form is required in practically every operation per-
formed on the farm. The purpose of this course is to acquaint the stu-
dent with the important improvements in farm machinery and to give
him a general idea of the proper care, adjustment, and use of all farm
equipments, as well as a general idea of the factors concerned in the
construction of farm buildings, etc. This work is given in the form of
illustrated lectures and laboratory demonstrations.
3. — Crop Improvement. Class work, three hours; laboratory, four
hours. Five credits.
The object of this course is to present practical, up-to-date, and ap-
proved methods of improving farm crops. Such questions as seed selec-
tion, crop adaptation, and crop rotation are presented and discussed in a
practical manner.
4. — Soils. Laboratory, four hours. Two credits. Required in the
second year of the short course.
This course consists of a study of methods of handling soils; it teaches
how to prepare a suitable seed-bed, how to conserve moisture, and how to
maintain fertility. A part of the period is used for lectures and demon-
strations.
5. — Farm Management. Class work, two hours. Two credits.
The object of this course is to assist the student in applying to the
management of a farm the information gained from his studies in the
various agricultural courses. The work in animal husbandry, dairying,
horticulture, agronomy, and other lines is correlated and placed on a
practicable, workable basis, with all nonessential features eliminated.
The farm lay-out is studied with especial reference to the character of
the soil, its adaptation to certain kinds of crops and types of farming;
the location of the buildings", their adaptation to types of farming; the
proper distribution of capital among land, buildings, live stock, farm
machinery, etc. ; the division of the farm into fields of the proper size and
shape for economical working; the planning and utilization of crops in
rotation with one another; the relation of live stock to the maintenance
of soil fertility; the proper adjustment of labor, teams, machinery, etc.,
to the farming area; and the growing of the right kind of crops in the
proper proportion on farms of different types.

HORTICULTURE
1. — Horticulture and Forestry. Class work, four hours; laboratory,
four hours. Six credits.
Lectures are given on the principles upon which successful work in
gardening and fruit growing depends. Here is given a discussion of the
preparation of the soil, the use of fertilizers, the propagation and manipu-
lation of plants, and the gathering and marketing of garden and orchard
products. The twelve lectures on forestry here included cover in detail
the formation of windbreaks and farm wood-lots, discuss the trees suit-
able for planting in the different parts of the State, and describe methods
of planting and the care and cultivation required for securing successful
growth.
Laboratory. — Two periods are used in investigating plant propagation,
plant training, and plant protection. The other two periods are spent in
inspecting the forest nursery and timber plantations.
2. — Horticulture. Class work, three hours. Three credits.
The work of this course is somewhat similar to the horticultural work
described in the preceding course. A short discussion of the landscape
principles and materials concerned in the improvement of farm prop-
erties is included.
3. — Horticulture Laboratory. Four hours. Two credits.
This includes. a study of orchard sites, and of grades of nursery stock
and its care; tests of orchard tools, of fuels and heaters for frost pro-
tection; a study of orchard sanitation, fruit picking, packing, judging,
and storage.
ANIMAL HUSBANDRY
1. — Live-stock Market Classes. Class work, one hour; laboratory,
four hours. Three credits.
One lecture a week is given on the various market classes of live stock,
taking up the study of the various market requirements for producing
fat as well as for feeding cattle, the different types and classes of horses,
sheep, and hogs. The aim of this work is to make the student familiar
with the classifications found in the leading live-stock markets, and to
enable him better to judge the various breeds of stock on the farm.
Laboratory, — The principal work is the judging of cattle, sheep, and
hogs. The student is first taught the use of the score-card, and, after
becoming familiar with this, is required to use comparison and group
judging, the aim being to make him familiar with the best types of
horses, and able both to detect unsoundness and to select such classes of
stock as will give the best returns. During the last two weeks of the
course the instruction in stock judging takes up dairy cattle. This is an
elementary course in dairy-stock judging, and consists of scoring and
judging animals by the use of the score cards.
2. — Live-stock Feeding. Class work, three hours. Three credits.
This is a study of all the common feedstuffs grown on the average
farm, of the use of mill feeds and by-products, of the combinations of
feeds that will give the best results, and of the feeds that can be most
economically used under various conditions.
3. — Animal Breeding. Class work, three hours. Three credits.
This subject is intended to give the student a knowledge of underlying
principles and practices which are concerned in the improvement of our
domestic animals. A careful study is made of the subject of variation in
general. The subject of transmission of characters and the behavior of
the various characters in transmission is taken up. The subject also
includes correlation, type, and variability. Study is made of Mendel's
law of hybrids. Prepotency of animals is studied as an influence in
heredity. Practical problems involving the selection of animals and
Division of Agriculture 161
various systems of breeding, such as crossing, hybridizing, grading, line
breeding, and inbreeding, are discussed. The student is shown how to
maintain and to improve his own flocks and herds by the application of
these various fundamental principles of breeding.
4. — Breeds. Class work, one hour; laboratory, four hours. Three
credits.
A study is made of the origin and history of the various breeds of
domestic animals, of the characteristics of each breed, and of their
adaptability to various conditions.
Laboratory. — This work consists in the judging of pure-bred classes
of stock. The characteristics of each breed, its weaknesses and its strong
points, are emphasized, in order that the student may be better able to
select his breeding herd. During the last two weeks of the course in
breeds of live stock, the principal breeds of dairy cattle are studied, and
types of each breed are judged and scored. For those students who elect
dairying, or who desire to take more work in judging and studying dairy
breeds, a special course is offered. In this course is given the history of
breeds, their dairy characteristics, with the study of advanced registry
systems and pedigree work with each breed.
5.— Live-stock Sanitation. Class work, three hours. Three credits.
This subject deals, with diseases that are communicable from animal
to animal or from animal to man. The causes, symptoms, and methods
that are employed to prevent and to combat the spread of diseases, and
the drugs that are commonly used as disinfectants, for washes, dips, etc.,
are given full consideration. The use of serums, vaccines, etc., for the
prevention of diseases is considered. Methods of disposal of sick and
dead animals, as well as the means employed to clean and to disinfect the
premises- so as to prevent a recurrence of diseases, are considered.

Laboratory. — Methods for determining numbers and types of bacteria
in dairy products are studied. The effect of sanitation, the use of heat
and cold, etc., upon the development of bacteria are considered.
COURSE IN TESTING DAIRY PRODUCTS
This course is offered to those who are buying milk or cream and who
wish to gain, in a short time, skill and accuracy in the application of the
various tests necessary in such work. The law of the State requires that
all persons buying milk or cream by test must pass a satisfactory exam-
ination and secure a certificate from the State Dairy Commissioner. This
course is designed to meet the needs of those who find they have not
sufficient knowledge of the subject to pass such an examination.
In addition to a study of the Babcock test, the student receives lectures
on ordinary sanitation, and learns the methods necessary to keep his
place of business in a sanitary condition. Exercises are given in grading
milk and cream, and in methods of handling cream so as to keep it in con-
dition until used or delivered at the railway station. This course is
offered at different periods throughout the year, dates being announced a
few days previous to the opening of each period.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Students over seventeen years of age are admitted to these courses
without examination. Students under seventeen years of age are ad-
mitted without examination, provided they present a certificate showing
that they have completed the eighth grade in the common-school course,
or its equivalent.
All students entering short courses are required to be present at the
beginning of the term, and will not be admitted later.
Certificate. — A certificate is granted to students completing the work
of the first and second years.
164 Kansas State Agricultural College
Cost. — The expenses for ten weeks need not exceed $50 to $75, ex-
clusive of railroad fare. A fee of $3 is charged for the term, payable at
enrollment. Reference books will cost from $5 to $10. For information
write W. M. Jardine, Dean of the Division of Agriculture, Kansas
State Agricultural College, Manhattan, Kan.
Agriculture in the Summer School
At the present time the greatest hindrance to the general introduction
of agriculture into the high schools and grade schools of the State is a
lack of properly prepared teachers. In order to give the teachers of the
State an opportunity to fit themselves to introduce this subject success-
fully into their schools, the College offers summer courses in agriculture,
in which especial emphasis is laid upon the subject matter and methods
adapted to secondary and primary schools.
The work offered consists in part of some of the regular subjects of
the College courses, including a thorough study of farm crops, especially
corn and small grains, in which growing as well as matured crops are
available for laboratory work. Courses are also available in the study of
market types and classes of beef cattle, dairy stock, sheep and swine,
with extensive practice in stock judging. Instruction is also given in
dairying, poultry husbandry, general horticulture, landscape gardening,
and orcharding. In addition to these subjects from the College courses,
special classes are organized to meet the needs of teachers of agriculture
in the rural schools, in the high schools, and in the lower grades.
A special circular giving details of the Summer School may be obtained
by application to the President of the College. The article in this cata-
logue on the Summer School gives brief information.

Division of Mechanic Arts
Andrey Abraham Potter, Acting Dean.
The Division of Mechanic Arts includes courses in agricul-
tural engineering, architecture, civil and highway engineering,
electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering, each lead-
ing to the degree of bachelor of science in the profession
selected.
The work of the freshman year is the same in all courses ; the
work of the sophomore year is the same for students of me-
chanical engineering and electrical engineering, and, except
that surveying is substituted for shop work, is the same for the
course in civil engineering. For the course in architecture the
plan of studies for the sophomore year is somewhat further
modified.
While the courses offered are believed to be sufficient to cover
the needs of the average young man, it is possible to combine
portions of the work of two or more of these Joiirses in such
a way that one may be prepared to take up §T special line of
work for which he desires to fit himself. For example, by sub-
stituting certain subjects from the departments of chemistry
and geology for some of those in the course in mechanical en-
gineering, a young man can tit himself for work in connection
with the manufacture of cement. By substituting some of the
subjects in chemistry for others in mechanical engineering, a
special preparation can be secured for chemical engineering.
By combining some of the subjects of the courses in civil and
mechanical engineering and by taking additional work in
chemistry and geology, a young man may fit himself for special
work in connection with the development of the coal fields
throughout the country. By combining work in the courses
in architecture and civil engineering, specialization in archi-
tectural engineering may be secured. In special cases permis-
sion will be granted to combine the work on the lines here in-
dicated.
However, it is believed that the courses as tabulated give the
best preparation for students expecting to follow general work
in the profession selected, and for those who are not absolutely
certain what branch of their profession they will follow. The
substitutions and combinations indicated, and others similar to
them, will be permitted only when there is good evidence that
the student desiring such work is practically certain to follow
the branch selected.
166 Kansas State Agricultural College
In the case of any of these modifications, the degree granted
will be that of the course in which the major portion of the
work is taken. In no case will the substitution of an additional
amount of technical work for any of the general cultural work
in the course be allowed.
COURSE IN AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING
The course in agricultural engineering with its three options
is designed to fit men as irrigation engineers,* as designers of
farm machinery and motors, or as flour-mill engineers and
designers.
The work of the first year is the same as in the other engi-
neering courses. During the second, third, and fourth years,
students choosing the farm machinery option take considerable
shop work, mechanics, kinematics, farm motors, farm ma-
chinery, hydraulics, and designing, besides such fundamental
agricultural subjects as crops, soils, and farm management.
In the irrigation and drainage engineering option the work of
the second, third, and fourth years includes fundamental civil
engineering subjects, such as surveying, civil engineering
drawing, masonry and concrete design, structures. Con-
siderable time-4s also devoted to problems in irrigation and
drainage engineering, supplemented by courses in shop work,
hydraulics, mechanics, crops, and soils. In the flour milling
option considerable time is devoted to chemistry, flour-mill
design, crops, grain inspection, wheat and flour testing, and
milling practice. The student, in this option, is given the
fundamental subjects in the mechanical-engineering course,
including shop work, mechanical drawing, applied mechanics,
hydraulics, and steam and gas engineering.
No student taking the course in agricultural engineering
will be allowed to graduate who has not had at least six months*
practical experience in the work of the option selected.
COURSE IN ARCHITECTURE
The course in architecture was organized to train men in the
general field of architecture and also to relate the principles
of architecture to farm buildings and grounds. The rapid in-
crease in wealth in the State creates a demand for designers
and builders of every type.
The freshman year of this course is identical with that of
the other courses of the division of mechanic arts. The other
three years are devoted to the study of pure and applied
mathematics, mechanics, physics, history of architecture, mu-
nicipal improvements, modern steel and cement construction,
rural landscape architecture. The course aims to develop the
creative powers of the student in the fields of original composi-
tion. From ten to sixteen hours a week, for the last three
Division of Mechanic Arts 167
years of the course, are given to work of this kind over the
drawing table.
The College is well equipped for the maintenance of a course
in architecture. It owns a collection of several hundred plaster
casts, tile and terra cotta samples, marble specimens, etc. It
has a fine collection of models of the classic orders ; a collec-
tion of blue-prints of residences, schoolhouses and churches,
and of nearly all the Kansas state buildings ; a large number
of modern books on architecture and engineering ; a complete
set of the international edition of the American Architect;
a complete set of the Inland Architect, and sets of several
European architectural magazines ; a well-equipped blue-print
room, etc. The substantial stone buildings of the institution,
their complete system of water-supply, drainage, heating and
lighting, and one of the largest and handsomest campuses in
America, furnish excellent illustrative material.
Students taking the course in architecture are expected to
devote their summer vacations to practical work in actual
building operations.
COURSE IN CIVIL AND HIGHWAY ENGINEERING
The aim of the course in civil engineering, with options in
highway engineering, as outlined in the catalogue, is to give
to the young men taking the course the best possible prepara-
tion for entering upon the active practice of the profession
under present conditions. It will be noted that the first and
second years of the course are devoted almost entirely to gen-
eral culture studies and the sciences, including mathematics.
This follows the arrangement generally found in the engi-
neering courses of American colleges, and it finds its justifica-
tion in the well-nigh universally accepted idea that any engi-
neering education worthy of consideration must be grounded
upon ample preliminary education in the allied sciences. In
recognition of the mechanical trend of the age, liberal pro-
vision is made in the course for class and laboratory work in
mechanical and electrical engineering.
In view of the growing importance of municipal problems,
such as paving, sewerage and water-supply, the course in civil
engineering includes a required course in municipal engineer-
ing, supplemented by courses in sanitary biology and chem-
istry.
The work in highway engineering affords time for an un-
usually thorough course in this subject, which is of such great
importance at the present time. It includes courses in road
machinery, and road building.
A liberal course in drainage and irrigation engineering is
introduced for those who may wish to take up this line of
work, which is coming rapidly into prominence.
168 Kansas State Agricultural College
COURSE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
The essential elements underlying a sound engineering train-
ing are based upon a thorough study of mathematics and the
physical sciences. The professional work of this course begins
in the third year and continues throughout the rest of the
course. General culture subjects are offered during the first
three years of the course.
Emphasis is placed upon training to deal with forces and
matter according to scientific principles, rather than upon the
accumulation of facts. The department laboratories are well
equipped with the various measuring instruments, standard-
izing apparatus, and the different types of dynamo machinery.
The different subjects are presented in the classroom, and the
classroom work is supplemented by laboratory practice. The
course provides a liberal training in wood- and iron-working,
mechanical drawing, and machine-shop pracice. The labora-
tory experiments selected for the student are designed to give
a clear conception of the theoretical work of the classroom.
Students are given extensive practice in connecting up the
different types of machines for testing purposes and for stand-
ard commercial work. This practice work and testing ex-
tends throughout the junior and senior years, and is intended
to give the student familiarity with the underlying principles
of the different machines, and a knowledge of the care neces-
sary to operate them successfully. Opportunity is also given
to undertake the investigation of commercial problems as they
are sent to the College from the different central stations of
the State.
In connection with the regular work of the classroom and
the laboratory, extensive references are given to leading books
and to current literature on technical engineering. In con-
nection with the laboratory work a certain amount of library
work is required. In the year 1908 a College branch of the
American Institute of Electrical Engineers was organized.
The branch meets the first Tuesday of each month. At these
meetings the instructors meet with the students for the dis-
cussion of technical subjects in engineering. Consulting engi-
neers and central-station managers are invited to present
papers at these meetings.
COURSE IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
The course in mechanical engineering prepares for the suc-
cessful management and superintendence of factories and
power plants ; for the design of power and machinery installa-
tions ; for the design and construction of machine tools, steam
and gas engines, compressors, hydraulic machinery, etc. ; and
for the design and erection of mill and engineering buildings.
The course of study has been laid out with the aim of
securing a judicious mixture of theory and practice, such as
Division of Mechanic Arts 169
will not only give the student the technical skill required for
engineering operations, but will also give him a broad grasp
of the fundamental principles of his profession.
It is not the intention in this course to give the young man
training similar to that received in serving an apprenticeship,
but rather to instruct him in the technical and theoretical
principles upon which the art of mechanical engineering is
based, without a thorough knowledge of which a man can not
rise to a position of responsibility in this profession. The
advantages of combining a practical application of principles
with theoretical instruction, while these principles are being
impressed upon the student by classroom work, are well
known.
The course in shop work, being purely educational in its
character, is designed to teach the various methods of doing
shop work, the operations that may be performed upon the
different machines, and upon what machines certain opera-
tions can be performed most economically, as well as to
acquaint the student with what may be expected not only from
the machines, but from the men operating them. In order to
secure this knowledge it is necessary that the student should
perform a large variety of operations. To accomplish this
result, an appreciable proportion of the course consists of
graded exercises. Wherever possible the student also is
assigned to work on apparatus and machinery that is being
built for use in the engineering or other departments of the
College, a large amount of which is constantly under way in
the shops.
Each student in the course in mechanical engineering is re-
quired to present before graduation a satisfactory thesis that
shows the results of original research along engineering lines.

The courses in applied mechanics are designed primarily to teach the
graphical and analytical methods of determination, both of the forces
acting on the parts of structures and machines, and of the effect of these
forces on the parts, together with the fundamental principles of the
design of the parts to meet specified conditions. The course is intended
to be of a highly practical character. For the purpose of better fixing
in the mind of the student the principles taught, the solution of a large
number of problems involving these principles is required in both the
applied mechanics and hydraulics. The principles are further illustrated
by means of the laboratory and drafting-room work, which parallels the
classroom instruction. The textbooks in several of the courses are supple-
mented by notes and assigned reference work.
APPLIED MECHANICS LABORATORY
For testing the strength of materials this laboratory is provided with
a 100,000-pound Riehle Universal Testing Machine, a 200,000-pound Olsen
Universal Testing Machine adapted for receiving columns up to 15 feet
in length, a 250,000-inch-pound Torsion Testing Machine, a 10,000-pound
beam testing machine and the auxiliary apparatus usually found in such
laboratories.
This laboratory also contains transmission and absorption dynamom-
eters, an oil and bearing testing machine, screws, jacks, hoists, scales,
gauges and other small instruments for taking weights and measurements.
There is a full equipment of apparatus for making standard cement and
concrete tests, a concrete building block machine and molds for various
concrete products, such as drainage tile and fence posts.
The road materials laboratory contains an Olsen standard rattler for
testing paving brick, a ball mill briquette former, impact machines,
abrasion machine, hardness testing machine, diamond saw, core drill, and
the usual auxiliary apparatus, as scales, ovens, etc.
HYDRAULICS LABORATORY
The hydraulics laboratory contains two hydraulic pits of 25,000 gallons
capacity each, an air-pressure tank, two hydraulic rams, two 4-inch
volute centrifugal pumps, one 18-inch deefr-well four-stage centrifugal
pump, one positive rotary pump, two deep-well reciprocating pumps, a
water motor, a Pelton-Doble water wheel, a small Price current meter,
a Haskell current meter, and many pieces of small apparatus, such as
weirs, scales, tanks, hook gauges, pressure gauges, and manometers.
All laboratory tests of a commercial character are conducted in ac-
cordance with the standard methods prescribed by the national societies.
Complete reports are required of the students on all laboratory exercises.

The educational and practical value of a systematic course in the
various branches of drawing can hardly be overestimated. The general
aims of the several courses in industrial art are the same: (a) the cul-
tivation of observation and analysis of form; (&) the development of
correct taste; (c) the teaching of the different methods of graphic repre-
sentation; (d) the acquirement of skill in handling drawing tools.
The instruction offered in architecture is intended to supply the pre-
liminary training required for the practice of architecture. It recognizes
the fact that this instruction must have a three-fold object: first, the
teaching of sound modern building construction; second, the teaching of
different methods of graphic representation; and third, the development
of correct taste.
The first is attained, in connection with the work in other departments,
by lectures, and by extended laboratory work in heating, plumbing, con-
crete construction, steel construction, and electric lighting, also by the
preparation of building specifications and by investigations of the legal
and ethical relations of architect, owner, and contractor. The second end
involves the teaching of correct perception and analysis of form. An
average of twelve hours a week throughout the four years is given to
projection drawing, descriptive geometry, isometric drawing, linear per-
spective, shades and shadows, sketching from casts and from life, archi-
tectural drawing, and architectural composition. The development of
correct taste is sought by offering much work in sketching and rendering,
mural decoration, landscape architecture, architectural criticism, and
architectural composition. Five terms are devoted to the study of the
fundamental principles of design and the styles of the past. Consid-
erable emphasis is also laid on the problems of architecture as related to
the needs of rural communities.

Mechanic Arts in the Summer School
The College has been unable to supply from its regular graduates all
of the teachers in manual training required by the high schools of the
State, and in order to encourage the introduction of manual training and
industrial drawing in all grades the College offers summer courses for
teachers in manual training, agriculture, and domestic science.
The work in drawing is an elementary course in free-hand and object
drawing especially designed to assist teachers in the use of the state text
in drawing.
In manual training and shop practice several courses are offered, em-
bracing different grades of work and different materials. One of these
is for pupils in the primary grades, and includes weaving, cord work,
raffia, reed work and cardboard construction. Other courses deal with
woodworking for the grammar grades and for high schools. These in-
clude not only a careful study of tools and processes, and practice in
important exercises in joinery, but practical cabinet construction, wood
turning, wood carving and inlaying, polishing and finishing.
In metal work a course in forging includes practical exercises for
high-school work, involving the operations of drawing, upsetting, welding,
twisting, splitting and shaping.* Sufficient instruction is given in the
forging of tool steel to enable one to make and temper many of the tools
needed in high-school work. Another course includes bench work and
machine-tool work, and familiarizes the student with some of the funda-
mental operations of a modern machine shop.
A special circular giving further details of this work may be had upon
application to the President of the College. See, also, article in this
catalogue on the Summer School.

of Mechanic Arts, and should state the lines of work that the applicant
particularly desires to follow.
208 Kansas State Agricultural College
Division of Home Economics
Mary Pierce Van Zile, Dean.
The philosophy which long ruled our educational policy has
been so modified by research in the sciences and by develop-
ment of the industries, arts, and professions, that it is now
recognized that any perfected educational system must include
technical training. It must encourage the student's natural
desire for productive work — work in which there is a living
connection between theory and practice. These broader views
have been accepted by college and university men, and the
result is noted in the success attained by combining industrial,
technical, and scientific work with the general studies. The
result is evidenced in the new courses of study for our young
men and women. It is safe to assume that there are now but
few educators who are so conservative as not to be in sym-
pathy with the collegiate education in home training which is
furnished by courses in home economics.
The courses are designed to fit young women to be home
makers and capable women in whatever sphere their life work
may be. The training is both specific and general. While it
emphasizes primarily the practical and material side of life, it
does not stop here. The young women are constantly reminded
that life is not drudgery; that technical knowledge and sci-
entific skill, even, fail to include the full meaning of education
in its highest sense. They are taught that any training that
fails to develop harmoniously body, mind, and spirit is inade-
quate and incomplete. They are brought face to face with
ideals as well as with actualities, and* are made to see that,
while skillful labor gives dignity to life, grace, refinement, and
self -poise are the highest requisites for true service.
The training given is as Varied as it is broad. It includes a
knowledge of the laws of health, an understanding of the sani-
tary requirements of the home; the study of values, both abso-
lute and relative, of the various articles (including food) that
are used in the home; the wise expenditure of money, time,
and energy; the scientific principles underlying the selection
and preparation of food; the right care of children; and the
ability to secure efficient service from others. Instruction is
methodical and thorough, and is suited to the circumstances of
the students. Experience shows that such training teaches
contentment, industry, order, and cleanliness, and fosters a
woman's independence and feeling of responsibility.
Division of Home Economics 209
The work in home economics includes :
A four-year course, leading to degree of bachelor of science,
A three-year course in the School of Agriculture.
A six-months housekeepers' course, for which a certificate of
proficiency is granted.
COURSE IN HOME ECONOMICS
The popularity of the four-year home economics course is
evidenced by the fact that fully eighty-five per cent of the girls
who graduate from the College graduate from this course.
The training is both general and specific. Since scientific
training is fundamental in the intelligent and successful ad-
ministration of the home, strong courses in the sciences are
given as a foundation for the special training in home eco-
nomics. To the end that well-rounded culture may be at-
tained, courses in English, history, economics, and psychology
receive due prominence. The time of the student is about
equally divided among the purely technical subjects, the fun-
damental sciences, and the cultural studies. The courses in
the related subjects are given in the different departments
of the College, while the technical courses are given by the
home economics departments. In the junior and senior years
opportunity is given for choice of electives, which makes it
possible for the student to specialize in some chosen line. To
this end electives are to be chosen in groups combined logically
in courses approved by the Faculty or by the student's dean.
The four-year course is recommended for all who desire to
teach domestic science or domestic art. It is with difficulty
that the home economics training schools meet the demand for
well-prepared teachers, a demand which is increasing more
rapidly each year. The College does not assume the responsi-
bility of insuring employment to graduates, but the latter
rarely experience difficulty in obtaining remunerative posi-
tions as instructors in domestic science or in domestic art, as
dietitians, or as professional housekeepers.

Technically, domestic science is an application of the science of bacte-
riology to the study of home sanitation and hygiene; of physiology and
chemistry to the composition of foods and their effect upon the human
body; of physics as applied to heating and lighting. Since the home is
dependent upon the sciences of chemistry, physiology, and bacteriology,
and the application of these to hygiene, direct use of the principles of
these sciences is made in the lessons in cookery, dietetics, home nursing,
and household management. In the kitchen laboratory a standard system
of measurement is taught, and constant emphasis is laid upon neatness,
accuracy, and economy in the handling of materials and utensils. Science,
applied science, and practice are presented in their proper relations, so
that the student who completes these courses gains not only a theoretical
knowledge of the principles underlying the profession of home making,
but experience in applying them.

Foods are classified, according to similarities in their composition, into
groups representative of the five food types — carbohydrates, fats, pro-
teins, mineral matter, and water; their sources, composition and digestive
value are considered. The conditions under which food materials are
matured and marketed, and the problems which relate to their storage
and transportation are also considered.
Laboratory. — Principles underlying the cookery of food are illustrated
in the preparation of representative foods.
2. — Home Problems. Freshman year, winter term. Class work, three
hours; laboratory, five hours. Four credits. Required in the course in
home economics, as a substitute for Food Preparation, for students who
have studied foods in high school; elective for students in the courses in

Housekeepers' Course in Home Economics
There are large numbers of young women who, from lack of time, are
unable to take an extended course, but who recognize the need for special
training in home making. The twentieth century demands of home man-
agers an understanding of the sanitary requirements of the home, a
knowledge of values, absolute and relative, of the articles used in the
house, quick attention to details, good judgment in buying and a ready
adaptation of means to the end in view. The purpose of the housekeepers'-
•course is to furnish this training. The teaching in this course is no less
accurate than in the regular course, but is necessarily different. Given to
students without scientific training, the instruction must be more largely
a presentation of facts, without an elaboration of the underlying prin-
ciples. The work is intensely practical, and the hundreds of young women
who take this course go back to their homes with a broader view of life,
,and a knowledge and training that will enable them to meet their
responsibilities.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Young women between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one are
.admitted upon presentation of common-school diploma, grammar-school
certificate, or high-school diploma, or upon passing an examination in
the following subjects: reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, grammar,
geography, -physiology, and United States history. Young women over
twenty-one are admitted without examination.

HOME ECONOMICS IN THE SUMMER SCHOOL
In addition to instruction in various branches of home economics
available to many teachers in the spring term, the College offers several
courses in this subject during the summer session. Instruction in these
courses is intended to represent correctly that which may be introduced
successfully into graded schools and high schools. Students will be
enrolled upon presentation of a teacher's certificate, or of a certified
statement showing that two years' high-school work or its equivalent
has been completed.
Division of Home Economics 219
The general subject of the presentation of home economics is one of
the courses offered. Here attention is given to the application of the
general principles of teaching to the teaching of domestic science and
domestic art, to the planning of lesson and course outlines, and to the
equipment of laboratories for grade schools and high schools.
In the courses in domestic science the preparation of food is discussed
in its different phases, and the principles studied in the classroom are
amply illustrated in the laboratory demonstrations.
In the courses in domestic art, the theory of hand and machine sew-
ing, making shirt-waist suits, and drafting and designing are taught and
given ample laboratory demonstration.
A special circular giving in detail the courses offered in the Summer
School may be had by applying to the President of the College. See,
also, the article on Summer School in this catalogue.
220 Kansas State Agricultural College
Division of General Science
Julius * Terrass Willard, Dean.
In the class of colleges to which this institution belongs, the
classical studies of the older type of college are replaced by
work in the sciences and in vocational subjects. A sound basis
for technical training includes thorough training in mathe-
matics, physical science, and biological science. It is believed
also that education should include some preparation for the
discharge of one's duties to the State and to the community in
which he lives. It should afford him that discipline and cul-
ture which alone can give him a grasp of the relations among
things, a breadth of view, a tolerant attitude, and hence an
influence over his associates and fellow citizens of every sta-
tion in life.
It is the province of the departments grouped in this divi-
sion of the College to give this basal scientific, cultural, and
disciplinary training. Their work is not only foundational,
but it penetrates through all the characteristic vocational
courses of the institution, as the structural steel of the modern
skyscraper penetrates the entire building and forms a secure
framework and support for the parts more readily visible.
These departments thus give unity to all of the four-year
courses of study, although presenting but two courses that
are distinctive of their own work. These, however, by means
of electives and options, are susceptible of manifold modifica-
tion and application.
THE COURSE IN GENERAL SCIENCE
The course in general science is the lineal descendent of the
single course formerly offered here. It includes the funda-
mental training in English, mathematics, science, history, eco-
nomics, military drill, and physical culture required in the
several specialized vocational courses now offered by the Col-
lege and chosen by the great body of our students. Its re-
quired subjects constitute the central educational basis of the
institution. By means of a number of groups of electives, it
gives an opportunity to students to advance themselves still
further in these fundamental lines and to give special at-
tention to some instead of taking the vocational subjects
characterizing other courses. This opportunity meets the needs
of several types of young people, among whom are: (1) Those
who have not yet fully decided as to their vocation, but who
wish an education that is strong and well balanced in respect
Division of General Science 221
to modern science and cultural subjects, as a foundation for
further education or as a preparation for sound citizenship
and intellectual satisfaction in life. (2) Those who are look-
ing forward to teaching in the high schools of the State. The
electives offered allow one to give special attention to mathe-
matics, physical science, biological science, elementary agri-
culture, elementary domestic science and art, history, eco-
nomics, English, and professional educational subjects. (3)
Those who are fitting themselves for research work in the
sciences, especially as applied to agriculture, engineering, and
other industries.
The elective groups offered in this course are to a consid-
erable extent made up of studies required in one or more of
the specialized courses. They provide also, however, advanced
work not included in other courses. The scientific work in con-
nection with the Agricultural and Engineering Experiment
Stations, and several fields of State investigation and service,
calls for the operation of unusually well-equipped departments
in the sciences, and excellent facilities for practical training
in this work are thus afforded.
While the course in general science offers a wide choice of
electives, these may not be selected aimlessly, or with the idea
of choosing the easiest, or of obtaining credit for miscellane-
ous subjects taken elsewhere or in other courses. The studies
of the freshman and sophomore years are basal and are re-
quired of all, without exception. They insure a broad and
adequate foundation for subsequent work in the several lines
of electives. The electives are to be chosen in groups, com-
bined logically in courses approved by the Faculty or by the
dean of the Division of General Science. Students changing
from other courses to the course in general science receive
credit for work done in tjie other courses in so far as it may be
fitted into the general plan of this one.
The course in general science in the junior and senior years
requires of all students civics, American history, economics,
psychology, and philosophy. This gives opportunity for the
election of twenty-two or more additional studies. Not fewer
than ninety credit units are to be chosen in groups, in such a
manner as to give logical coherence to the course as a whole.
The elective portion of the course, as thus made up, will con-
sist for the most part of several groups of three or more full
studies or their equivalent. It is possible to include some
single subjects that may be advantageously taken without
others. For a few courses special combinations in sewing,
cooking, and shop work have been planned to meet the needs of
prospective teachers of manual training.
The course in general science is thus many in one. Such
various combinations of groups are possible that it is not
practicable to print all of them in extended form. There are,
222 Kansas State Agricultural College
therefore, formally presented herewith the required subjects
of the course in their specified order by years and terms, to-
gether with a considerable number of groups of electives.
Finally, combinations of these groups that have been ap-
proved are indicated by means of numbers assigned to the
several groups. Other combinations may be arranged.
THE COURSE IN INDUSTRIAL JOURNALISM
Knowledge is power only as it comes into the possession of
those who can use it ; it gives pleasure in direct proportion to
the extent of its diffusion. A discovery is of but little value as
long as the discoverer is the only one who knows of its exist-
ence, and the printed page is by far the most effective means
of extending knowledge concerning it. Magazines and news-
papers never sleep, nor do they take vacations, and their
power to elevate mankind is incalculable. But printed knowl-
edge becomes effective only as it is read, and to be read in this
day it must stand out from the great mass of other matter,
and gain the attention and hold the interest of the reader. To
do this, its points must be sharp and easily seen, and the style
must be attractive. On the other hand, if the presentation is
not essentially true, the more attractive it is the worse it is,
and the greater the harm that follows wide reading of it.
The purpose of the course in industrial journalism is to
equip men and women with fundamental knowledge, that they
may both recognize that which is new, and distinguish truth
from falsehood ; to enable them to set a proper valuation upon
facts as related to the industrial world, that the emphasis of
their writings may be properly placed; and to write clear,
accurate, forceful, entertaining English.
A writer might advantageously know everything; this being
impossible and the field being so broad, this course as offered
by the College includes, in the first place, studies that are
basic to all industrial life and its presentation — English, his-
tory, economics, physics, chemistry, the biological sciences,
etc., and two years in the theory and practice of effective
writing and publication. In the second place, this course
gives opportunity for choice of elective groups of subjects
directed towards agriculture, mechanic arts, home economics,
or general science. Thus, a student may elect subjects that
will give special knowledge concerning farm crops, live stock,
horticulture, forestry, mechanic arts, home economics, etc.
The College thus affords preparation for work in a wide
and inviting field. Our unprecedented industrial achievements
have been made by the application of discoveries in physical
and biological science. Much of discovery, and much of appli-
cation, is yet to come, and one who can write truthfuly and
attractively of that which is, and of that which comes, will
find ample reward.

Bacteriology
Professor Bushnell
Instructor Hunter
Instructor Jackley
Assistant Glasgow
The Department of Bacteriology occupies a part of the first and second
floors of Veterinary Hall. The space is divided into offices and private
laboratories, an experiment station and research laboratory, two large
general laboratories, incubator or temperature room, wash room, and
stock room. The laboratories are well lighted and equipped with gas,
lockers, ice chests, sterilizers, wall cases, microscopes, and other modern
facilities necessary for bacteriological work.
The instruction consists of lectures, recitations, demonstrations, and
laboratory practice. Printed synopses of the lectures, and printed lab-
oratory directions, are furnished the students in some of the courses; in
others, textbooks are required. The departmental library contains text-
books on bacteriology and allied subjects, also the current files of the
important technical periodicals relating to bacteriology. These are at
the constant disposal of the students for reference. To those who desire
graduate work, the department offers excellent facilities.
Bacteriology is presented to the student as a biological science, and as
a practical factor in every-day life. In this subject only the simplest
forms of life, consisting almost invariably of one-celled organisms, are
studied. At the present time it is possible to study these microscopical
forms with ease and accuracy, thus paving the way for a more complete
study and a better understanding of cells in the aggregate. The second
point of view from which this subject is approached is that of its prac-
tical application in agriculture, medicine, domestic science, and sanitary
engineering.

The instruction given in the Department of Botany has a threefold
purpose :
First, general training in botany as an observational science, familiar-
izing the students with the meaning and relations of the manifold forms
of plants, and the principles governing their life-processes. For those
who wish to pursue the subject of botany professionally, excellent oppor-
tunities are offered to secure a broad and thorough training in the
advanced courses given by the department.
Second, the importance of a scientific knowledge of the laws of plant
life being fundamental in agriculture, it is sought in the elementary
courses to provide such training as will generally fit the minds of agri-
Division of General Science 233
cultural students to grasp the underlying meaning of familiar field work
with crops; such training, moreover, as may be built upon in a carefully
graded series of advanced courses.
The third phase of the work of the Department of Botany lies in the
investigation of those economic problems in plant life which affect agri-
culture. Three distinct general lines of work in botany and plant breed-
ing are being conducted in the Experiment Station: experimental plant
breeding; the investigation, prevention and control of plant diseases;
physiological investigations in drouth resistance; and seed control, i. e. t
the determination of the purity and vitality of agricultural seeds for
farmers, seedsmen, and others.
The equipment for elementary instruction comprises thirty compound
and sixty-four simple microscopes, a series of Jung, Peter, Kny, and
Frank botanical charts, a Bausch & Lomb projection apparatus, and a
very full collection of preserved material for general morphology and
pathology. For advanced work, Zeiss and Spencer microscopes with
apochromatic lenses, a filar micrometer, a Bausch & Lomb camera lucida,
a Zeiss drawing table, a Zeiss binocular microscope, and Bausch & Lomb
simple microscopes of the highest grade, provided with special camera
lucida attachment, are furnished for the use of the members of the staff
and graduate students. A Minot precision microtome, Spencer microtome,
embedding and sterilizing ovens, and the usual supplies of reagents and
glassware, are provided for histological study.
In physiology, a complete equipment of the Ganong and the Cambridge
lines of physiological apparatus and supplies is available. A large, well-
equipped dark room, provided with a Folmer & Schwing enlarging,
reducing and lantern-slide camera, a field camera of the best type, and a
Bausch & Lomb photomicrographic apparatus, affords opportunity for
the preparation of botanical photographs, lantern slides, illustrations for
bulletins, etc.
In the Experiment Station laboratory are kept various instruments of
precision employed in quantitative work in plant-breeding investigations,
including special forms of apparatus used for taking measurements of
organs, a specially designed gravimeter, an improved colorimeter, an
Egli calculating machine, a Comptograph adding machine, a Corelli polar
planimeter, specific gravity apparatus, numerous balances, the usual
glassware, etc.
For general botanical reference there is an excellent herbarium, espe-
cially complete for the state of Kansas, and a very full collection of
economic fungi. A very good botanical library is available, containing
the usual standard texts and reference works, and files of the principal
foreign journals.

All of the industries are becoming more and more dependent for their
highest success upon intelligent application of the sciences, and the special
sciences are making their greatest progress by tracing their phenomena
back to the physical and chemical changes that accompany them. A study
of chemistry and physics is therefore essential to any understanding of
the processes of nature or of human industry. In the instruction in
chemistry, the aim is to insist upon a mastery of the chief concepts of the
pure science through the agency of textbook drill, accompanied by demon-
strations in the lecture room, and experimental observations by the stu-
dent himself in the laboratory. As the course proceeds, illustrations of
chemical principles are drawn from the industrial processes of the chem-
ical, , agricultural, domestic, and other, arts, thus impressing upon the
mind the practical nature of the study. The ultimate object of instruc-
tion in this science is to develop in the student the power to form inde-
pendent judgments upon the manifold problems of daily life in which
chemistry plays a part.
The lecture rooms are amply equipped for experiments and demon-
strations, and the laboratories are designed to accommodate 800 students
per term in freshman work and qualitative analysis. The, laboratories
for more advanced work provide space for 100 students, and are well
supplied with general and special facilities. The State work in foods,
feeding stuffs, and fertilizers, and the chemical investigations of the
Experiment Station in soils, crops, animal nutrition, etc., afford un-
usually, good opportunities for students to obtain experience in practical
chemistry.
COURSES IN CHEMISTRY
1. — Chemistry I. Lectures and recitations, three hours; laboratory,
two hours. Four credits. Required in all courses. Prerequisite: Ele-
mentary Physics. Not open, as a rule, to students who have had a good
high-school course in chemistry. See Chemistry la to Ilia.
This term's work begins the study of elementary inorganic chemistry,
and includes a study of the elements oxygen, < hydrogen, chlorine, and
their compounds, this being accompanied by theoretical treatment of the
subjects of matter, energy, properties of gases, chemical law and theory,
solution, electrolytic dissociation, acids, bases, and salts, and chemical
change as related to light, heat, and electricity. It is designed, with the
succeeding terms, to give the student a. knowledge of the fundamental
principles of chemistry. As all subsequent progress in this science re-
quires a working knowledge of its principal .theoretical conceptions,, the
principles of nomenclature, -the significance of formulas, chemical equa-
tions, etc., much attention is given to these, while at the same time the
practical- uses of the substances, and the processes, used in metallurgy,
engineering, agriculture, and other arts are emphasized. Neweirs Inor-
238 Kansas State Agricultural College
ganic Chemistry for Colleges is used, this term's work covering the first
209 pages. The text is supplemented by lectures and is amply illustrated
by experimental demonstrations.
Laboratory. — As far as time permits, the student performs inde-
pendently experiments touching the preparation, and properties of the
more important substances. Preference is given to those operations which
illustrate important principles, and the student is required, as far as pos-
sible, to study experiments in that light. In this, as in all other labora-
tory work in chemistry, the objects are to illustrate chemical phenomena
and to teach care in manipulation, attentive observation, logical deduction,,
and discrimination and accuracy in recording results and conclusions.
The student is required to give the designated amount of time, and a
minimum amount of work must be satisfactorily performed in order to
obtain credit. Laboratory Exercises in Elementary Chemistry, by Wil-
liam McPherson, is used as the laboratory guide.
2. — Chemistry II. Lectures and recitations, two hours; laboratory,
four hours. Four credits. Required in all courses. Not open, as a rule,
to students who have had a good high-school course in chemistry. See
Chemistry la to Ilia.
The work under this head is a continuation of the study of elementary
inorganic chemistry, and includes the elements nitrogen, carbon, sulphur,
and their compounds, and a consideration of atomic weights, valence, and
the classification of the elements. These subjects are included in pages
210 to 355 of NewelPs Inorganic Chemistry for Colleges.
Laboratory. — The laboratory work of this term is a continuation of
that begun in the preceding term.
3. — Chemistry III. Lectures and recitations, three hours ; laboratory,,
two hours. Four credits. Required in all courses. Not open, as a rule,
to t students who have had a good high-school course in chemistry. See
Chemistry la to Ilia.
This work completes the study of elementary inorganic chemistry be-
gun in the preceding terms, and includes the consideration of fluorine*
bromine, iodine, silicon, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and the metals.
Laboratory. — The laboratory work in this course is a beginning in
qualitative analysis, for which McPherson's Elementary Treatise on
Qualitative Analysis is used as the guide.
la to 3a. — Chemistry la, Ha, and Ilia. These courses, covering three
terms, are given for students who have had one year of high-school
chemistry, but who did not obtain credit in Chemistry I and Chemistry
II by examination. In the class-room work of these courses, A Course in
General Chemistry by McPherson and Henderson is used as the textbook*
and a more advanced course in laboratory work is given than that which
accompanies the regular freshman work.
4. — Qualitative Analysis. Sophomore year, fall and winter terms*
Lecture, two hours; laboratory, four hours. Four credits. Required in
the courses in agriculture, veterinary medicine, home economics, and
general science. Prerequisite: Chemistry III.
In this course the prime object is to increase the student's knowledge
of chemistry as a whole. The standard methods of analytical chemistry
are made the basis of a systematic study of the chemical properties of the
most important metals, nonmetals, acids, bases, and salts. The teaching
of analysis as such is a secondary object, although the student is held to
the exact observations and careful reasoning required in ascertaining the
composition of single substances and mixtures. The exercises, which are
outlined in a special pamphlet, include a review of the more important
topics of inorganic chemistry, in which natural occurrence of elements and
compounds, industrial chemical processes, and analytical reactions are
Division of General Science 239
seen to be closely connected. The exercises are so arranged as to pass
from the simpler to the more difficult ones, and at the same time to
facilitate the comparative study of the several cations and anions. The
theories of chemistry receive constant application. The effect of the course
is to broaden, strengthen, and unify the student's ideas of general chem-
istry, to enlarge greatly his knowledge of chemical facts, and at the same
time to fix many of them in his mind by associating them with the re-
actions made use of in analytical processes.
Laboratory. — The regular methods of qualitative analysis serve as a
basis for a laboratory study of the chemical properties of substances.
Laboratory manual, Qualitative Analysis, by W. A. Noyes.
5. — Elementary Organic Chemistry. Sophomore year, winter term.
Lectures and recitations, four hours. Four credits. Required in the
courses in agriculture, home economics, and general science. Prerequisite :
Chemistry III.
A systematic study is made of the simpler examples of the more im-
portant classes of organic compounds in their logical chemical relations.
Such substances as touch the everyday affairs of life are treated in
greater detail. Opportunity is thus afforded to consider the hydro-
carbons, alcohols, organic acids, fats, soaps, sugars, starch, proteids, and
other less-known substances. Compounds used for clothing, food, fuel,
light, antiseptics, disinfectants, anesthetics, poisons, medicines, solvents,
etc., are included. While especial attention is given to the useful organic
compounds, the study of others is not excluded, when they contribute to
an understanding of the systematic relations existing among the several
groups. Any serious study of the biological sciences, or of the arts con-
nected with them, must require this as a foundation, and a knowledge of
the properties of organic compounds finds frequent application in en-
gineering as well. The subject is amply illustrated by experiments in
the lecture room. Text, Norris' Organic Chemistry, in part, accom-
panied by lectures amplifying certain parts of the subject.
6. — Agricultural Chemistry. Sophomore year, spring term, and
junior year, fall term. Class work, two hours. Two credits. Required
in the course in agriculture. Prerequisite: Qualitative Analysis.
The work: of this term consists chiefly of a detailed study of the
application of chemistry to agricultural problems, with especial reference

made a part of the credit work of advanced students.
Economics
Professor Kammeyer
Assistant Professor Baker
Vocational training alone does not fully prepare a student for his life's
work, nor for the acceptable discharge of his duties as a citizen. It is
necessary that he should have at least a general knowledge of the social
and economic conditions under which he works, in order that he may
benefit society as well as himself. The State needs men and women trained
for citizenship, and it is the purpose of this department to plan and to
direct its work with this need in view.
A departmental library of well-selected books bearing on economics,
sociology, and statistics is at the disposal of students, and is used for
collateral readings, book reviews, and reports.

Assistant Professor Bbisstbb
The courses in this department have for their controlling purpose the
professional training of teachers. Two types of courses are offered:
(1) Courses that give the broad, fundamental principles upon which
public education is based, and (2) courses that develop technique and
skill in school management and the organization of the subject matter of
the curriculum. All courses are based upon the proposition that educa-
tion supported by public taxation should function in social and vocational
efficiency.
A minimum of twenty-four credit hours is required in this department
for the state teacher's certificate.

Ability to use language accurately, clearly and concisely is an essential
part of the training of every educated person. The work of the Depart-
ment of the English Language is to acquaint the student with the best
standards of English practice, and to encourage him to maintain these
standards in all his work. To this end the department offers studies in
cultural and technical English and special drills in expressing thought
freely and effectively in matters touching the vital interests of the
student. The study of the English language is thus made the means of
increasing the power and efficiency, and consequently the capacity for
enjoyment, of the individual. It is the aim of the department, in co-
operation with the technical departments of the College, to increase the
knowledge and usefulness of the young workers of the State;

English Literature
Professor Brink
Assistant Professor Good
An ultimate purpose of the instruction in literature is to train stu-
dents in the art of effective writing. No better way has yet been found
for the accomplishment of such an end than the study and emulation of
the great writers of the language. The courses seek to give the student
an understanding of the nature and characteristics of literature in its
leading forms, to develop in him a taste for noble expression and a
desire to attain high ideals in his own writings, to develop in him the
ability to judge with confidence the literary qualities of any given work,
and through sympathetic study of masterpieces to give him some idea of
the leading authors.
In most of the courses in literature the work is pursued by means of a
combination of lectures, classroom study, and seminary investigation,
accompanied, of course, by frequent written reports for criticism and dis-
cussion. The literature is read at first hand, and the student is required
to interpret for himself as far as possible, with the idea that it is more
profitable for him to know an author than to know what some one has
said about that author. The extensive and intensive methods are com-
bined — wide reading to obtain literary atmosphere and breadth of view;
■critical study to develop accuracy and insight.

In all courses a special effort is made to make the student realize that
"he is studying living things which form a part of his daily environment,
.and upon which his welfare in many cases vitally depends. In courses
in which both class and laboratory instruction is given, the closest cor-
relation is striven for, and wherever possible the same form is studied
simultaneously in laboratory and class. The student is led to integrate
"his classroom knowledge with local animal life by means of frequent and
carefully planned field excursions, and by the free use of vivaria in lab-
oratory and museum. The courses offered are intended to awaken in the
student a keen appreciation of the general principles underlying insect
life, of the life economy of the more beneficial as well as of the more in-
jurious species, and of the general principles governing methods for their
•control.
Standard anatomical charts, a representative collection (especially of
local species), a high-grade lantern for the projection of lantern and
microscope slides, a large and excellent series of lantern slides (many of

German
Professor Cobtelyou
Instructor Hbilman
Instructor Limpeb
In whatever direction the modern student turns his energies, a prac-
tical knowledge of German is found to be very useful — often quite in-
dispensable. In the sciences, in the arts, and in literature, much of the
newest and best work appears in German, so that he who would keep
abreast of the times is forced to acquire at least the rudiments of the
language. It is desired that the work of this department shall be as
practical as possible, without, however, failing to encourage a fondness
for German literature. The plan of instruction in general is a combina-
tion of the grammatical and conversational methods, each of which has
its own special advantages.
A number of literary and scientific periodicals published in German
are received by the College library, and afford the student a practical
opportunity to amplify his knowledge of the language as derived in the
classroom.
Students who have had German in the high school will be required, as
a rule, to take more advanced courses as their elective or required work
in German here.

Instructor James
Assistant Reynolds
The Department of History and Civics offers nineteen different
courses, as described below. Six of these are offered in the vocational
schools, and are to be taken in the order designated, though each of these
subjects is taught practically every term. The department is well
equipped with maps and charts, and has, all things considered, an un-
usually strong library.
Training for citizenship, breadth of view, historic-mindedness, fairness
of judgment, and general culture are constant aims of each course offered
by the Department of History and Civics. As a result of the training
received in these courses, the student is better prepared to understand and
appreciate the institutions in the midst of which he lives and of which
he is a part. He is also prepared to act more wisely his part as a leader
in good citizenship wherever his lot may be cast.

COURSES IN HISTORY
1. — Advanced English History. Freshman or sophomore year, spring
term. Class work, four hours. Four credits. Required in the courses in
industrial journalism and general science; elective in the course in home
economics.
This course traces the story of the growth of England from the Britain
of the earliest time to the British empire of to-day. The political history
is clearly traced, but emphasis is laid upon the constitutional develop-
ment, and the practical working of the present governmen- is carefully
studied. Much emphasis is given to the industrial and social develop-
ment of the people, especially to the more recent industrial revolution.
One of the especially interesting features of this course is the study of
England's institutions and government as her colonial empire emerged,
and the conditions under which the United States of America became
independent of England. While this is primarily a textbook course, with
Cheyney's Short History of England as the text, supplementary reading
is required, especially from Green's Short History of the English People
and Cheyney's Industrial and Social History of England. As far as the
limited time permits, lectures are given on contemporary continental
institutions, movements, and conditions.
2. — French History. Elective, fall term. Class work, four hours.
Four credits. Elective in the courses in home economics and general
science.
The story of the growth of the French nation is traced from the days
when Gaul was a Roman province, through the fall of Rome and the
German conquest to the development of the Christian church and of the
institution of feudalism. Then occurs a study of the Crusades, of the
formation of the French nation, and of the beginnings of absolute mon-
archy, to the time of the emergence of France into a great European
power. There follows a survey of the Hundred Years' War, of the
Protestant Revolution, of the religious civil wars, and finally of the
monarchy under Louis XIV. The study of the old regime in France, of
the French Revolution, of Napoleon, and of the new nation, brings this
course to the point where the course in Modern Europe begins. Text,
Adams' The Growth of the French Nation, supplemented by special
library assignments, and by lectures on medieval institutions.
3. — Modern Europe. Elective, winter term. Class work, four hours.
Four credits. Elective.
This is a study of the evolution of the modern European nations out
of eighteenth century conditions, especial . emphasis being laid on the
period since the French Revolution. A study is made of the principal
features of their present governments as actually conducted, together
with the leading questions that are now agitating the several European
states. An investigation is also made of existing international relations,
and of the more important problems of the modern world, such as the
Turkish problem, China, and the partition of Africa. Text, Robinson
and Beard's Development of Modern Europe, Vol. II, and readings.
4. — Advanced Industrial History. Sophomore year, fall term, or
jimior year, winter term. Class work, four hours. Four credits. Re-
quired in the courses in the Division of Mechanic Arts. (This course is

climate, etc. ? of the American continents and how these have affected
American history and institutions; (2) a study of the discovery and
colonization of America — the impelling motives, the life, occupations, re-
ligion, psychological temperament, political institutions, etc., of the people,
of the attitude of the mother country toward colonization and the col-
onists, and of the later history of immigration; (3) the influence of the
—9
258 Kansas State Agricultural College
frontier on American history and development; (4) a study of the South
before the war (under slavery), and of the new South as it has been
developed since the war, including a comparison of the South with New
England and the West; (5) a study, running throughout the course, of
the life and the industries or occupations of the people; (6) a review of
the leading facts in the political history of the nation. This course is
based on an American history notebook, prepared by the department; but
special use is made of such texts as Bogart's Economic History of the
United States, Coman's Industrial History of the United States, and
Simon's Soc'il Forces in American History. Instruction is given by
means of lee. ires, assigned readings, and reports.
5. — American History I. Junior or senior year, fall or winter term.
Class work, four hours. Four credits. Required in the courses in general
science, home economics, and industrial journalism; optional in the course
in agriculture. (This course incorporates the first part of Advanced
Industrial History.) Prerequisite (except by special permission) :
American Government.
This is an advanced course in the political, constitutional and industrial
history of America to 1845. The course covers the conditions that led to
the discovery of America; the period of discovery; the causes and de-
velopment of colonization; the French and Indian War; the War of the-
Revolution; the struggles of the confederation period; the specific politi-
cal, economic and industrial lines along which the nation has developed.
This is a library course, and each student uses an American history note-
book of topics and references prepared by the department, as an aid to
larger, more definite and more thorough work.
6. — American History II. Senior year, each term. Class work, four
hours. Four credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses.
The work of this term continues the course in American History I down
to the present time. It includes a study of the annexation of Texas and
the Mexican War, with the resulting slavery issue; the compromise of
1850; the Kansas-Nebraska bill and the early Kansas struggle "to the
stars through difficulties," including the various constitutions and the
final admission to statehood; the origin of the Republican party; the
election of 1860; secession; a comparative study of the North and the
South before, during, and after the war ; a study of some leading features
of the war, including financial questions and foreign relations; recon-
struction — political, social, and industrial ; presidential elections, especially
that of 1876; and finally, a study of the Spanish War and of America's
new position as a world power. The American history notebook is con-
tinued. Emphasis is given to the industrial phases of American history,
in an effort more clearly to understand and appreciate the present indus-
trial age. This course incorporates the latter part of Advanced Industrial
History. Prerequisite: American History I.
7. — European Industrial History. Senior year, spring term. Class
work, four hours. Four credits. Elective in the courses in the Division

sential features of the history of civilization — the chief elements in the
story of human progress. Based primarily on such texts as Cheyney's
Industrial and Social History of England, and Innes' England's Industrial
Development. Supplemented by lectures and reference work.
8. — History of Home Life and the Law of Domestic Relations.
Junior or senior year. Class work, four hours. Four credits. Elective
in the course in home economics.
Division of General Science 259
The character of this course is suggested by .e title. It certainly
includes essential features of the history of civ" jation, and traces the
story of human progress from the dawn of histo: > to the present moment.
The course is now in preparation, and will be offered in the near future.
It will be based on a combination of texts, lectures, and library readings.
9. — Kansas History. Elective, spring term. Class work, two hours.

Law (Hornbook Series, 1910).
Industrial Journalism
Instructor Smith, in Charge
Assistant Detwilek
The purpose of the course in industrial journalism is to give greater-
facility in the use of English, with especial reference to the demands of
newspapers, farm publications and magazines, in disseminating informa-
tion concerning agriculture and the industries generally.
Instruction in industrial journalism does not begin until the junior
year, and students desiring to take it must come prepared with the
necessary training in English and other fundamentals of such a course.
They will be required, also, to conform to a schedule of optional courses
particularly suited to this profession, and certain to be valuable to them
after they leave college. Special students with the necessary prerequi-
sites will be admitted.
A series of lectures describing the theory and practice of journalism
is continued throughout the two years. Especial emphasis is given to
the industrial branch of the profession. A part of every lecture hour
may be used for criticism or special instructions to the class.
COURSES IN INDUSTRIAL JOURNALISM
1. — Elementary Journalism. Junior year, fall or spring term.
Class work, two hours. Two credits. Required in the courses in in-
dustrial journalism and agriculture ; elective in other courses.
In this course the students learn the first principles of the profession
as they are acquired in actual service. Examples of industrial writing,
good and bad, are presented for consideration; farm journals and their
ideals and requirements are discussed; and the students are told just
what to do and how to do it under given circumstances.
2. — Farm Writing. Junior year, winter term. Class work, two
hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Elementary Journalism.
Division of General Science 261
This course contemplates the most careful instruction in preparing:
material for publication in daily and weekly papers throughout the
State, and in farm journals. The work covers the principal points and
objections noted by editors of both classes of publications, and gives
particular attention to suggestions leading to the development of at-
tractive features in stories of agriculture, home economics, and me-
chanic # arts, and in campus news. The ordinary laboratory or practice
work incidental to assignments is continued. Attention is given live-
stock advertising and illustrations.
3. — Gathering News. Junior year, spring term. Class work, two
hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Farm Writing.
The lectures and work of this course are designed to familiarize stu-
dents with the requirements of newspapers in small cities and towns in
respect to the matter of gathering and presenting current events. A
part of the term is given to consideration of the principles and problems
of country journalism.
4 to 9. — Journalism Practice I to VI. Junior and senior years;
four hours. Two credits, each term. Required in the course in industrial
journalism; elective in other courses. The prerequisite for each term
is the work of all preceding terms in Journalism Practice.
Journalism practice consists in gathering information, or news, to
which the students have been assigned, and in writing the stories, or
articles, in the department workroom. Assignments are given at regular
periods and must be accounted for exactly as in a newspaper office, or as
in any college course in which certain tasks are performed in the presence
of the instructors. The students write articles for The Kansas Indus-
trialist, the official paper of the College, and for farm journals and news-
papers, describing the work of the Experiment Station, and the in-
dustrial work of the various departments. At least one article, and in
emergency, two or more articles, must be written every week. In pro-
portion as they advance, the students do more important laboratory, or
practice, work. They are required to write special stories and editorials,
and in every possible way conduct the actual business of a newspaper
office. References are looked up, and special articles prepared for pub-
lication under personal supervision. Special instruction is given in the
use of technical and semitechnical expressions in writing, with a clear
understanding of their meaning. In this way students learn to avoid
many of the errors inevitably made in newspaper articles written by
persons unfamiliar with the phraseology of the professions.
10. — Copy Reading. Senior year, fall term. Class work, two hours.
Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism; elective in
other courses. Prerequisite: Gathering News.
This work teaches the students how to detect, . avoid and correct the
common errors in newspaper writing. The lectures cover practically
every point encountered in many types of publications. In this part of the
course students learn how to emphasize in the headlines the most impor-
tant -and interesting features of a manuscript. Special attention is given
advertising, type faces, and the work of making up a newspaper.
11. — Newspaper Law. Senior year, winter term. Class work, two
hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Copy Reading.
This course is intended to supply the most valuable instruction in the
law covering the conduct of newspapers and other publications, particu-
larly with respect to libel. One half the class periods are given to the
history of newspapers in the United States and to the law of copyright.
The ethics of the profession, invaluable to every one desiring to write for
the press, are discussed. The students continue their agricultural and
industrial writings as in the other terms.
262 Kansas State Agricultural College
12. — Editorial Practice. Senior year, spring term. Class work, two
hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Newspaper Law.
A cultural course designed to broaden the student's viewpoint as to the
conduct of the editorial department of newspapers and farm journals, as
to the theories that underlie its work, and as to the factors and influences
that control it. To encourage the formation of opinion and to stimulate
thought, acceptable contributions written by the students are printed in
the College paper. A part of the term is given to a study of the history
of agricultural journalism in the United States.
Library Economy
Librarian Smith
Reference Librarian Derby
Research Assistant G-ericke
The library supplements the work of every department of the College.
It is a storehouse of knowledge for every student. It supplies information
and the latest results of scientific research for every instructor. The
library is thus essential to the College, forming, as it were, a center from
which its various activities radiate.
In order that the library may perform its functions with the highest
degree of efficiency it is necessary that instruction be given regarding its
use. With this thought in mind a course is offered the purpose of which
is to familiarize the student with scientific, up-to-date methods in the use
of books and to acquaint him with the best general reference books as
well as with standard works on various subjects. Placed at the beginning
of his College course it should tend to increase largely his efficiency in
study throughout the entire course.
COURSES IN LIBRARY ECONOMY
1. — Library Methods. Freshman or sophomore year; fall, winter or
spring term. Class work, one hour; laboratory work, two hours. Two
credits. Required in the courses in general science, agriculture, and
home economics.

In an institution that stands as an exponent of the industrial type of
education, mathematics should occupy an important place. Training in
the exact science is valuable not only for its own sake but also on ac-
count of its manifold applications. On this basis the courses in mathe-
matics are offered primarily with the following ends in view: (1) the
attainment of mental power and accuracy in the interest both of general
culture and special application; (2) the acquirement of facts and proc-
esses that will provide the student with an indispensable tool for further
scientific and technical study.
Freshman courses are offered each term, sophomore courses at least
twice during the year.

Military Training
Second Lieutenant Hill, Professor of Military Science and Tactics
Commissary Sergeant Clabeen" (U. S. A., retired), Assistant
B. H. Ozmbnt, Band Leader
Since this College is one of the beneficiaries of the act of Congress of
1862, military tactics is required in the College curriculum. All young
men under twenty-five years of age are required to take military drill
three full hours a week for two years, unless excused from a part of this
on account of membership in College athletic teams. (See Physical
Education.)
The course of instruction is concisely stated in General Orders No. 231,
War Department, 1909, as follows:
"The main object of military instruction given at civil educational in-,
stitutions having army officers as professors of military science and
tactics will be to qualify students who enter the military departments of
such institutions to be company officers of infantry, volunteers, or militia."
In compliance with this general requirement, the course of instruction
is divided into practical and theoretical work, arranged as follows :
a. — Practical:
Infantry drill, including school of the battalion.
Butts' Manual, with music.
Signal drill: International Morse code.
First-aid drill.
Minor tactics: advance and rear guard, outposts, patrolling,
and marches.
Target practice.
Ceremonies: parade, guard mounting, review, inspection, funeral
escort, and escort to the colors.
b. — Theoretical:
Company administration for cadet officers.
War Department manuals.
Lectures. "
Students under military instruction are organized into a battalion or a
regiment of infantry, the organization, drill, and administration of which
conform to that of the army.
Since the number of students assigned to military drill is sufficient to
maintain a battalion organization, a band is also provided, the members
of which must be thoroughly trained in the drill of the school of the
squad. Assignments to the band are made upon request of the band
leader, who is charged with the technical instruction.
Officers and noncommissioned officers are selected by the Professor of
Military Science and Tactics, with the .approval of the President. This
selection is made from among those cadets who have been the most
studious and soldierlike in the performance of their duties, and the most
exemplary in their general deportment. In general, the cadet captains
and lieutenants are taken from the senior class, the sergeants from the
junior class, and the corporals from the sophomore class.
266 Kansas State Agricultural College
The degree of excellence attained in military drill by the corps of
cadets is limited wholly by the state of discipline existing in the corps.
Therefore, military discipline, as far as compatible with College regu-
lations, is rigidly enforced during the hour allotted to military work; and
it is impressed further upon all cadets that their actions and behavior at
times other than the hour for military drill should be regulated by the
standards of honor and duty inculcated in military discipline. Each
cadet is furnished with a copy of the Regulations for the Corps of Cadets,
Kansas State Agricultural College, and is expected to conform to the
rules and requirements of the same.
All young men in College courses below the junior year, unless ex-
cused by reason of physical disability, are required to take military drill,
and to complete the work of each term in a satisfactory manner. All
requests for credit, for excuse on surgeon's certificate of permanent dis-
ability, or for postponement because of exceptional circumstances, are
made to the President through the Commandant of Cadets, who thor-
oughly investigates each case on its merits and forwards the request, with
his recommendations, for executive action. Additional work is optional
with seniors and juniors, who are given preference for appointments as
cadet officers and noncommissioned officers. A senior or junior having
enrolled optionally, and having accepted a commission or warrant; is re-
quired to continue the work throughout the College year, subject to the
same regulations as other cadets.
The uniform conforms generally to the West Point pattern. The cost
of cap, blouse, and trousers varies from $15 to $18. This expenditure
actually represents an economy, as the young man receives an excellent
well-fitting suit, durable in texture and build, which gives him at all
times a well-dressed appearance. The uniform must be purchased im-
mediately after enrollment. New cadets, after being assigned to military
drill, report at once to the office of the Commandant of Cadets for measure-
ment, and then make their cash deposits to cover the cost of the uniform.
The buying of old or of second-hand uniforms is absolutely prohibited,
and, they will not be accepted as satisfactory uniforms by the Command-
ant of Cadets.
At the close of the year the names of the cadets most distinguished in
military science and tactics are reported to the War Department, and
also to the adjutant-general of the State of Kansas.
To the cadets completing the full course in military science and tactics,
many excellent opportunities are offered. These young men are well pre-
pared to stand examinations for commissions in the regular service or in
the Philippine constabulary, and their training at this institution makes
of them efficient subalterns. In addition to such positions, opportunities
exist for affiliation with the National Guard of the State. The War De-
partment is in fact now preparing a plan whereby certain honorably
mentioned graduates of institutions of this character may be commis-
sioned in the National Guard.
The Department of Military Training offers elective courses as fol-
lows: Small-arm Firing Regulations; Field-service Regulations; Camp
Sanitation; Guard Manual; Field Engineering; First Aid to the Injured.

Recognizing the importance of music in daily life, the power, cul-
tural influence, inspiration, and pleasure it affords, and the necessity of
musical knowledge for those who intend to enter the profession of teach-
ing, this College offers to the earnest student a good opportunity for the
study of music.
No regular or required course is given. The student may take music
for one term only, or for an extended period of four years. Instruction is
furnished free to all regular students assigned to class work in the follow-
ing branches : voice, piano, violin, wind and brass instruments ; notation,
theory, harmony, and musical history- For individual instruction a fee is
charged.
Class Instruction. Class organization is wholly under the control
of the professor of music, and classes are organized at such periods as
best accommodate the students interested. There is a growing demand
for teachers of music in high schools, and those taking advantage of the
courses offered will be well equipped to teach the subject.

Musical Organizations. Each instrument has a distinct function in
the science of tonal expression, and only in the combination of instru-
ments are the finest effects in the coloring of the melody, harmony and
rhythm procured. This combination is made possible in the Department
of Music by the number of students and by the variety of instruments.
Students who are sufficiently advanced to join the College Choral Union,
the College Glee Club, the College Orchestra, or the Military Band, may
become members by assignment.
The Orchestra. — This organization endeavors to maintain a correct and
well-balanced instrumentation, and gives the members opportunity for
practical orchestral playing. The work is highly educational, including,
as it does, the study and performance of standard overtures, symphonies,
and concert pieces in classic and modern form. The orchestra furnishes
music for the College Assembly each morning and assists in several con-
certs and entertainments during the year.
Choral Union. — Chorus singing is of great importance to students in
voice, and this society was organized for their benefit. The students re-
ceive here much needed experience in sight reading, become, familiar with
choral masterpieces, and enjoy the broadening influence of these works.
One rehearsal is held each week. Regular attendance is required.
Assembly Chorus. — The more advanced students are invited to sing in
this chorus, which has for its object the rendition of a weekly choral
selection at the assembly. Only the highest class of church music is used
on these occasions. Rehearsals are held on Friday afternoons.
Glee Club. — The College Glee Club averages about sixteen of the best
male voices in the institution.
Military Band. — The band is a part of the cadet corps, and practice in
the band is accredited, through the Military Department, in lieu of drill
and theoretical instruction. Members of the band are required to conform
strictly to cadet regulations. Assignments to the band are made for the
entire year by the leader. Members of the band are required to attend
regularly until after Commencement exercises. The band furnishes music
for all ceremonies of a military character and for various other college
occasions.
Annual Concert. — On Wednesday of Commencement week, an annual
concert is given by the Choral Union, assisted by the orchestra. In the

The purpose of this department is to assist the students of the College
to live to the best advantage, and so to aid them in the formation of
hygienic habits that during their College course they may make profitable
preparation for life. It is an urgent necessity that every student
have an intelligent appreciation of the means requisite for the preserva-
tion of his health, in order that he may be able to formulate intelligently
his own policy of health control.
All young men and all young women of the College are entitled to the
privileges of the gymnasium, which is one of the largest in the West and
is well equipped with all sorts of apparatus for physical training, with
lockers, plunge baths, shower baths, and other accommodations.
270 Kansas State Agricultural College
Physical training is optional for men, but may be elected. Three days
a week for the term is considered full time, and for this one hour of credit
is given. A total of six hours of credit may be elected. All young women
below the junior year are required to take physical training, unless ex-
cused by the Dean of Women, except that in the sophomore year music
may be taken instead; provided that the student has a credit of at least
one year of physical training. Women excused from physical training on
account of physical disability are provided by their dean with an equiva-
lent or stronger substitute from the regular course, and their normal work
later in the course is increased by that amount. After the two years,
required physical training have been completed, women have the privilege
of. electing physical training for credit under the conditions stated above
for the men.
The following phases of departmental work are combined for the
purpose of accomplishing the desired end:
PHYSICAL TRAINING FOR MEN
PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS
The work of the department is based largely upon a physical examina-
tion given each student upon his first entrance to the College. A second
examination is given at the close of his sophomore year. All students,
whether taking work in the department or not, are entitled to receive a
physical examination, and advice as to their physical condition.
The measurements taken and the tests given have each a definite pur-
pose with reference to ascertaining the muscular condition of the indi-
viduaL A diagnosis is also made of the vital organs to ascertain their
functional conditions, and a complete inspection of the whole body is made
to detect any weakness or deformity that may exist. Based upon the in-
formation thus obtained, advice is given and work is assigned to students
in accordance with their physical needs and tastes, and their condition of
fitness. Delicate students, and those suffering from functional disorders,
receive individual attention. Students organically sound are assigned
work in a carefully graded and progressive system of gymnastics and ath-
letics. All candidates for athletic teams, class as well as College teams,
are required to enroll in the department, submit to a thorough physical
examination, and pass the grade tests before being allowed to compete for
positions on the various teams. Students engaging in two or more Col-
lege sports during the school year must undergo a physical examination
before undertaking any given sport. This is required in order that no
student may indulge in athletics to his own permanent physical injury.
Each student may secure a copy of his own physical measurements, and
an anthropometric chart, showing in graphic form his own development
as compared with the average or typical man.
Members of the College teams, reporting regularly, are excused from
regular class work, and are entitled to full credit in that portion of their
work; but before the completion of the course, at least two terms 7 work
must be done in the gymnasium. Credit, the equivalent of a one-hour sub-
ject, is given and counts toward the College degree. The individual's
grade rests largely on the basis of attendance, punctuality, earnestness,
and application; but written and practical tests are also given.
Division of General Science 271
Regulation uniforms must be worn in the gymnasium. Students are
•advised not to procure uniforms until after their arrival at the College.
A student who is a regular member of one or more of the College ath-
letic teams, if due to take military drill, may be transferred to physical
education for the season of the sport in which he participates, but no
man may take part in more than two sports, of one term each, in one year.
At the end of the season the man is reported back to the Department of
Military Training for the remainder of the term, and a grade reported to
the Registrar by the Professor of Physical Education for the student's
work in that department, stating the time devoted to it; and a grade in
military drill is reported by the Professor of Military Training for the
student's work in military drill, stating the time given to that subject.
Men due to take military drill are permitted to try for the freshman
athletic teams, and, if chosen for such teams, may be transferred from
military training to physical education, as are regular members of the
College athletic teams. Grades in the two subjects are also to be re-
ported in a similar manner.
Men in the College teams, in the freshman athletic teams, or on trial
for these teams, must report regularly for athletic work, and any who
fail in -this respect are returned to the Department of Military Training
at once.
All requests for transfer from military to athletic work must come
directly from the Professor of Physical Education, and as soon as the
transfer is definitely decided upon, the Registrar and the dean are notified
in order that a proper record of the change in assignment may be made.
Students who are due to take military drill but who expect to be on
athletic teams for one or more sports, must be measured for military
uniforms and order uniforms at the beginning of the term in order that
they may be ready for use at once when the students are reported back to
the Department of Military Training.
HYGIENIC INSTRUCTION
This instruction gives an insight into the practical problems of daily
healthful living from a personal point of view. Directions are given for
avoiding the common ills of student life, and for maintaining the highest
physical and mental condition while in college, as well as for. gaining the
highest development of vital power and health for future duties.
1. — Freshman Course. Sixteen lectures. These lectures give special
attention to exercise, rest, food, respiration, care of excretions, cloth ing,
anH bathing and cleanliness. The effects of certain abnormal bodily con-
ditions and habits are also given due consideration; e. g., adenoids, large
tonsils, decayed teeth, mouth breathing, rapid eating, the use of narcotics
and stimulants, constipation, and certain phases of social hygiene. Train-
ing principles for athletic contests and athletic equipment also receive
attention.
2. — Sophomore Course. Twelve lectures. This course reviews and
enlarges upon certain phases of the freshman course; deals with bac-
teria and a few other common causes of disease, their distribution and
transmission; includes a discussion of the "common carriers'' of disease,
such as food, water, clothing, flies, mosquitoes, other insects, animals, and
careless human beings; discusses the defenses against disease, such as
established boards of health and quarantine, and appropriate sanitary
272 Kansas State Agricultural College
legislation. ^ The defenses of the individual, such as cleanliness, avoidance
of the carriers of disease, the use of antiseptics, sunshine, fresh air, and
immunity are further discussed.
INSTRUCTION IN PHYSICAL EXERCISE
This course furnishes instruction in all the various grades of gymnastic
and athletic exercises offered by the department. The great variety of
exercises offered is intended to meet all individual needs, capacities and
tastes. A physical examination and test determines the grade or class
of exercises for which a student is fitted.
A. — Gymnastics. During the winter term the work is conducted in-
doors, and consists of light and heavy gymnastics, which are selected
with a view to obtaining progressive effect upon the bodily organism :
a. Free Calisthenics, Exercises are selected for their different effects
upon the bodily organism, and are arranged in the order of increasing
difficulty. They involve hygienic or body-building work, educative move-
ment, and corrective or remedial exercises. Both the Swedish and the
German systems are used.
b. Tactics. A modified form of the military and of the German sys-
tem is used, both for convenience in handling classes and for disciplinary
value.
c. Light Apparatus. Training is given in the use of Indian clubs,
dumb-bells, wands, bar bells, etc.
d. Heavy Apparatus. Graded exercises are given on parrallel bars,
vaulting bars, bounce board and. mat, side and long horse, high and low
horizontal bars, traveling and flying rings, etc.
e. Indoor Athletics. Instruction is given in all indoor track events
preparatory to indoor track meets.
/. Games. There are included basketball, indoor baseball, volley ball;
also, other games of a more recreative nature.
g. Specials. Under this head come fencing, boxing, wrestling, tum-
bling, and advanced apparatus work, offered as advanced work to those
who have had not less than two terms' work in the gymnasium. Hours
are arranged with the instructor.
h. Swimming. A part of the regular instruction for the spring term
is in swimming. A passing grade must be made Jn this phase of the
work.
B. — Departmental Athletics. In the fall and spring terms, the
courses in the gymnasium are partly supplemented by instruction in out-
door athletics. Individuals are assigned to the kind of work best suited
to them. Attendance is compulsory upon those participating. In the
fall the following sports are offered: football; track and field events;
cross-country running; and outdoor basketball. In the spring are
offered: baseball; track and field events; cross-country running; and
outdoor basketball.
Cross-country running is encouraged throughout the year. Natural
exercise in the open air takes precedence of all other forms of exercise.
Opportunity is offered for tennis, but it can not be elected in place of
required work.
Days unsuited for outdoor work are devoted to a discussion of playing
rules, the principles of training for athletic contests, and lectures on
team work.
C. — Intercollegiate Athletics. These contests are promoted and
encouraged for the more vigorous students, because of their effect upon
college life, and their wide social and moral value to the participants.
Intercollegiate teams should represent the final stage of selection in an
Division of General Science 273
educational process and development among a large number of students,
thereby giving both a rational physical education system and a healthy
system of sport. Intercollegiate contests are scheduled for the different
sports; viz., football, basketball, baseball, track athletics, and tennis.
PHYSICAL TRAINING FOR WOMEN
PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS
A physical examination of each young woman is made by the instructor
in charge of women before permission to enter a class is given. This
includes an elaborate system of body measurements and an examination
of the condition of the heart and lungs. Physical defects, abnormalities,
and weaknesses are noted and judicious, healthful exercise is prescribed
to fit the student's individual needs.
A suit has been adopted which consists of black serge blouse and
bloomers, and must be made in uniform style. The pattern for the suit
is the Ladies 7 Home Journal pattern number 5421.

Recognizing the need of a thorough knowledge of the fundamental laws
and principles involved in all physical changes, provision has been made,
in the courses which follow, for both a theoretical and a practical treat-
ment of the subject. Instruction is based upon the facts given in selected
textbooks, and these topics are enlarged upon by lectures and illustrated
by experimental demonstrations. The purpose is to give a training in
274 Kansas State Agricultural College
exact reasoning, and a knowledge of principles that will be factors in the
solution of problems in all branches of science as well as in everyday life.
The laboratory work which accompanies the courses in physics gives
a student abundant opportunity to test the principal laws of the science;
and, since he is expected to arrange and operate the apparatus, the work
should enable him to acquire skill in manipulation, precision of judgment,
and care in the use of delicate instruments. The laboratories are well
arranged for the work, and the equipment provided is of a nature adapted
to meet the requirement of accurate work in all courses. The manual in
use in most of the courses is one prepared by the department to meet the
exact conditions and equipment of the laboratory.

some knowledge of the chemical and physical principles involved in the
art, as well as practice in making good negatives and prints. The lecture
and laboratory work deals with: things to be considered in selecting a
camera; proper exposures; composition of pictures; proper development
of plates; tests of different developers; retouching; reducing and intensi-
fying negatives; printing and mounting; making lantern slides, bromide
enlargement, and the prints best adapted for illustrated articles in news-
papers and magazines.
Public Speaking
Assistant Professor John-stO-NT, in Charge
Assistant Beach
It is the constant effort of the Department of Public Speaking to cor-
relate the training " in public speaking with the work in all the other
departments of the College; to harmonize it with the spirit of the school,
which is distinctly technical and industrial. With this end in view, stu-
dents in agriculture are trained in the presentation and discussion of
agricultural facts before supposed audiences of farmers. Students in en-
gineering, architecture, etc., are trained in speaking on subject matter
relating to their respective courses of study, and to their probable needs
and activities in later life. Conviction, not entertainment, is the dom-
inant purpose in every case.

Zoology
Professor Nabours
Assistant Professor Ackeet
Instructor Harman
Assistant Yocum
Classroom teaching and laboratory instruction are closely correlated,
and the student is expected to be able to draw conclusions based upon a
comparison of information from both sources. As nearly as circumstances
permit, the classroom and laboratory work on the same form proceed
simultaneously. By means of frequent and carefully planned excursions
and the free use of vivaria in the laboratory and museum, the student is
never allowed to forget that he is dealing with living creatures, in many
cases fellow members of his own environment, some of which are decidedly
beneficial or decidedly injurious to his welfare. The courses offered by
this department are intended to awaken in the student an appreciation of
the general principles of animal life and of its relation to the welfare of
man.
Division of General Science 279

journals or bulletins are discussed. Most of the sessions are devoted to
the presentation and criticism of the best thoughts on the fundamental
problems of biology found in the books and periodicals in the library or
reported by members from scientific meetings.
Special Courses for Teachers
At the present time the teaching of vocational subjects in the public
schools is undergoing great development. Many schools are introducing
manual training, agriculture, domestic science, and domestic art, and
many others are extending the work hitherto given. The State law re-
quiring the teaching of agriculture in the rural schools is also creating
a strong movement in the same direction. There is an active demand
for teachers who can handle such work successfully.
The College offers to graduates of other institutions, and indeed to all
who have studied such subjects as may be prerequisite, unexcelled facili-
ties for securing training in the industrial subjects indicated. Courses
extending over one or two years may be arranged by means of which the
student who is already prepared in English, mathematics, and to a cer-
tain extent in the sciences, may prepare himself to enter a broader and,
frequently, a more remunerative field.
Page 225, Nos. 15, 16, 17, 19, 20, and 21, exhibit groupings that
illustrate the possibilities in work of this character, and other ar-
rangements may be made. Those taking such courses will be cared for
in the regular classes provided for other students, and no limitation is
imposed except that the prerequisites for any subject must have been
taken previously, here or elsewhere. These prerequisites are stated in
this catalogue in connection with the description of each subject. The
catalogue also shows the terms in which a subject is regularly given,
but many of those of the freshman and of the sophomore year are also
offered at other times. Prospective students may receive information
concerning such other opportunities by addressing the President of the
College.
282 Kansas State Agricultural College
The Summer School
Edwin Lee Holton, Director
There is no larger or better equipped plant devoted to the
teaching of agriculture, home economics, mechanic arts, and
related subjects than Kansas has in her State Agricultural
College. In order that this plant may not remain idle during
the summer, the Board of Administration has authorized the
organization of a Summer School for Teachers. The College
is authorized by an act of Congress to expend each year a por-
tion of the national appropriation for "providing sources for
the special preparation of instructors for teaching the elements
of agriculture and mechanic arts."
Each year there is an increasing demand for trained teach-
ers of agriculture, shop work, and home economics. The Col-
lege has not been able to supply this demand. The Summer
School offers an opportunity for experienced teachers to pre-
pare themselves to meet the new demands placed upon the
public schools; viz., preparing the boys and girls for vocational'
and social efficiency.
ADVANTAGES AT THE KANSAS STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
For the training of teachers in vocational subjects the Kan-
sas State Agricultural College has a peculiar advantage. The
College campus occupies a commanding and attractive site
upon an elevation adjoining the western limits of the city of
Manhattan, with electric car service into town and to the
railway stations. The grounds are tastefully laid out accord-
ing to the designs of a landscape architect, and are extensively
planted with a great variety of beautiful and interesting trees,
arranged in picturesque groups, masses and border plantings,,
varied by banks of shrubbery and interspersed with extensive
lawns, gardens and experimental fields. Broad, macadamized
and well-shaded avenues lead to all parts of the campus. In-
cluding the campus of 160 acres, the College owns 748 acres of
land. Outside the campus proper, all the land is devoted to
practical and experimental work in agriculture. Within the
College grounds most of the space not occupied by buildings
or needed for drives and ornamental planting is devoted to
orchards, forest and fruit nurseries, vineyards, and gardens.
The College buildings, twenty-one in number, are harmoni-
ously grouped, and are uniformly constructed of attractive
white limestone obtained from the College quarries. The Col-
lege owns and operates its own system of waterworks, and is;
provided with a complete sewerage system.
The Summer School 283
There is a growing conviction among the leading educators
that the best institution in which to train teachers of voca-
tional subjects is a well-equipped technical college, where the
courses of study are pointed towards the producing vocations.
The Kansas State Agricultural College is such an institution.

Wood Turning. Ten hours, laboratory.
A course designed to prepare teachers for teaching wood turning in
high schools. The work includes typical application of tools and tool
processes, in turning between centers, on faceplates, and by means of
hollow chucks. Exercises are given in turning cylinders, cones, beads,
convex and concave curves, after which articles are made from drawings,
which have a practical application in a student's home or social life, such
as handles, mallets, rolling-pins, circular boxes, with covers, Indian clubs,
dumb-bells, napkin rings, bowls, towel rings, typical vase forms, cups,
goblets, frames, ornamental stools, etc. While many of these articles are
made from blue prints, it is the aim to have the student make some
objects of value from his own designs, both as a project in turning and
as a practical lesson in designing.
In connection with the laboratory work a careful study is made of the
commercial value of wood turning, kinds of wood suitable for this work,

BOTANY
Professor Roberts
Instructor Wells
Agricultural Botany. Laboratory, eight hours.
The purpose of this course is to give high-school teachers a method of
teaching botany that will bring the subject into closer relation to the
farm and its problems. It is an attempt to render possible the study of
botany in a scientific sense, but by the use, so far as practicable, of
strictly economic plants for laboratory material. Considerable emphasis
is laid on the study of plants from the natural-history standpoint. Most
of the larger and more important groups of plants are studied from this
point of view. The course will fall into the following divisions: (1) The
plant and its work, two weeks; (2) the kinds of plants, one week; (3) the
diseases of plants, one week; (4) weeds and their eradication, one week;
(5) the improvement of plants, one week.
Diseases of Plants. Class work, two hours; laboratory, two hours.
The purpose of the course is to give teachers a practical working
knowledge of the common diseases of agricultural and horticultural
plants, and especially to enable them to learn to recognize these diseases
in the field. A study is undertaken of the rusts, smuts, and leaf spot dis-
eases of cereals and forage crops, of the common diseases of orchard
fruits, such as apple blotch, apple scab, bitter rot, black rot, brown rot of
plums and peaches, pear blight, etc., of the common diseases of the im-
portant truck crops, such as potatoes, cabbage, tomatoes, beans, etc., and
some attention is given to diseases of ornamental plants, and forest trees.
The aim of this course is distinctly practical, and only so much investi-
gation into the character of the fungi causing diseases will be undertaken
as is absolutely necessary for the intelligent conduct of the course. The
work will be entirely in the laboratory and field.
CHEMISTRY

Chemistry I. Lectures and recitations, six hours; laboratory, four
hours. Four credits.
The term's work begins the study of elementary inorganic chemistry,
and covers the elements of oxygen, hydrogen and chlorine and their com-
292 Kansas State Agricultural College
pounds, this being accompanied by theoretical treatment of the subjects
of matter, energy, properties of gases, chemical law and theory, solu-
tion, electrolytic dissociation, acids, bases and salts, and chemical change
as related to light, heat and electricity. Newell's Inorganic Chemistry
for Colleges is used, this term's work covering the first 209 pages. The
text is supplemented by lectures and amply illustrated by experimental
demonstrations.
Laboratory. — As far as the time permits, the student performs inde-
pendently experiments touching the preparation and properties of the
more important substances. Preference is given to those operations
which illustrate important principles, and the student is required as far
as possible to study experiments in that light. Laboratory Exercises in
Elementary Chemistry, by William McPherson, is used as the laboratory
guide.
Chemistry III. Lectures and recitations, six hours; laboratory, four
hours. Four credits.
This work completes the study of elementary inorganic chemistry
begun in the preceding terms, and includes consideration of fluorine, bro-
mine, iodine, silicon, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and the metals.
Laboratory. — The laboratory work in this course is a beginning in
qualitative analysis, for which McPherson's Elementary Treatise on
Qualitative Analysis is the guide.
Organic Chemistry. Lectures and recitations, eight hours per week.
Four credits. Chemistry III is a prerequisite.
A systematic study is made of examples of the more important
classes of organic compounds in their logical chemical relations. Such
substances as the hydrocarbons, alcohols, organic acids, fats, soap, sugars,
starch, proteids, and other less known substances are treated with
greater detail. Compounds used for clothing, food, fuel, light, anti-
septics, disinfectants, anesthetics, poisons, medicines, solvents, etc., are
included. The subject is amply illustrated by experiments in the lecture
room.
Qualitative Analysis. Lecture, four hours; laboratory, eight hours.
Four credits.
In this course the prime object is to increase the student's knowledge
of chemistry as a whole. The standard methods of analytical chemistry
are made the basis of a systematic study of the chemical properties of the
most important metals, nonmetals, acids, bases, and salts. The teaching
of analysis as such is a secondary object, although the student is held to
the exact observations and careful reasoning required in ascertaining
the composition of single substances and mixtures. The theories of chem-
istry receive constant application. The effect of the course is to broaden,
strengthen, and unify the student's ideas of general chemistry, to enlarge
greatly his knowledge of chemical facts, and at the same time to fix many
of them in his mind by associating them with the reactions made use of
in analytical processes. This subject must be preceded by Chemistry III.
Laboratory. — The regular , methods of qualitative analysis serve as a
basis for laboratory study of the chemical properties of substances.

lege credit is given. Textbook, Milikan and Gale.
Elementary Physics I. Class work, seven and one-half hours; lab-
oratory work, two hours. Four credits.
This course is intended to give a general view of the subjects of
mechanics and sound. Special emphasis is placed upon those principles
which will be met again in later work in the same or other sciences.
Textbook, Milikan and Gale. Prerequisite: Algebra III.
Elementary Physics II. Class work, seven and one-half hours; lab-
oratory work, two hours. Four credits.
This course includes a study of heat and light, and is a continuation of
Elementary Physics I. Discussion of the most important laws involved
in each of the above, together with the explanation of many every-
day phenomena, is followed by problems. Prerequisite: Elementary
Physics I. Textbook, Milikan and Gale.
Elementary Physics III. Class work, seven and one-half hours; lab-
oratory work, two hours. Four credits.
This course is a continuation of Elementary Physics I and II, and in-
cludes a study of magnetism and electricity. After a brief study of
magnetism, the fundamental laws of electricity are studied and illus-
trated, and the working principles of many of the electrical appliances
in daily use are made subjects for class discussion. Prerequisite: Ele-
mentary Physics I. Textbook, Milikan and Gale.
Students receiving credit in any of the three elementary courses above
may substitute the grade for similar required work in the School of Agri-
culture.
300 Kansas State Agricultural College
Pedagogy of Physics. Class work, seven and one-half hours; labora-
tory, four hours. Four credits.
This course includes a study of the modern texts, manuals and methods
in high-school physics. Students are given an opportunity to help as-
semble apparatus and to assist in lecture demonstrations. The laboratory
work will include the usual experiments required in the elementary
course in physics. The purpose of the course is to discuss methods best
adapted for the presentation of those topics which present special diffi-
culty, to devise methods of illustrating and demonstrating the funda-
mental principles, and to select from a large number of possible labora-
tory experiments a list which might be used in any of our Kansas high
schools. This course is intended for those who are either teaching or
expect to teach physics in secondary schools.
Electricity and Light. Class work, seven and one-half hours; lab-
oratory, four hours. Four credits.
An advanced course in electricity and light. The course is the
same as is required of all engineering and general science students,
and gives the student a working knowledge of the units employed in
measuring current, the various methods of producing current, and
acquaints him with the electrical appliances used in both current
production and electrical measurements. The work in light covers the
principal phenomena of light, with a study of light as an exact means of
physical measurement. The laboratory work includes the work with
generators and motors, photometers, lamp tests, spectrometer, and ad-
vanced problems in both electrical measurements and light. Text, Kimball.
Household Physics. Class work, seven and one-half hours. Four
credits.
A course of lectures and demonstrations, in which the laws relating to
principles involved in appliances of the household are explained and illus-
trated. The work in heat is based upon thermometry, calorimetry, radia-
tion, absorption, and methods of refrigeration and ventilation. The
course includes a study of light, with its color phenomena and actinic
effects; of some of the optical instruments used in scientific work; a
study of electric lighting and illumination, and of the cost of operating
many of the appliances used in the home, including suggestions for the
proper use and care of electrical apparatus for the protection of the
appliance and of the operator.
Photography. Class work, three hours ; laboratory, six hours. Three
credits.
The importance of a record of exact details, as shown in photograph,
makes this work valuable to all scientists. The course gives the student
some knowledge of the chemical and physical principles involved in the
art, as well as practice in making good negatives and prints. The lecture
and laboratory work deals with: things to be considered in selecting a
camera; proper exposures; composition of pictures; proper development
of plates; tests of different developers; retouching; reducing and in-
tensifying negatives; printing and mounting; making lantern slides,
bromide enlargement, and the prints best adapted for illustrated articles
in newspapers and magazines.
The Summer School 301
ZOOLOGY
Assistant Professor Ackert
General Zoology. Class work, seven and one-half hours. Four
credits.
A study of types of animals selected to illustrate the development of
the invertebrates, together with a series of field trips. The latter in-
cludes excursions to ponds, streams, and meadows, where students collect
their own material in order to become acquainted with habitats. Ani-
mals found are studied in relation to their own species, and to other
animals, including man. The field trips afford also an opportunity to
become acquainted with the names, and, to some extent, the classification,
habits and economic importance of the summer birds and a few of the
common mammals.
302 Kansas State Agricultural College
Division of College Extension
John Harold Miller, Dean.
Until 1905 the work of college extension, in the form of
farmers' institutes, was in charge of a farmers' institute com-
mittee of the College. Applications for college lectures at
the institutes were referred to this committee, and such mem-
bers of the Faculty as happened to be available were detailed
to attend the meetings. The State appropriation for institute
work was small, no regular staff could be employed, and the
institutes themselves were for the most part unorganized and
of a temporary and sporadic character. The first step toward
the development of the institute work was taken in the em-
ployment by the Board of Regents of a superintendent, who
assumed the responsibilities of the organization of the work
in October, 1905. In July, 1906, the Department of Farmers'
Institutes was formally organized by the Board of Regents.
An energetic prosecution of the work of agricultural exten-
sion had resulted in an awakened interest throughout the
State, and in a legislative appropriation of $4000 in 1905, to
which amount the College added $800. In 1907 the results of
the extension work were seen to be so valuable that the legis-
lature appropriated $11,500, to which the College added
$1000. In 1909 the legislature, with unprecedented liberality,
made an appropriation for agricultural extension work of
$52,500, just five times the appropriation made by the pre-
ceding legislature. The legislature of 1911 appropriated for
this department $35,000 for the year ending June 30, 1912,
and $40,000 for the year ending June 30, 1913. The legisla-
ture of 1913 appropriated for the Division of College Exten-
sion, $45,000 for the year ending June 30, 1914, and $50,000
for the year ending June 30, 1915;
The many developments of the extension work made it
necessary, in the judgment of the Board of Regents, to create,
in December, 1912, the Division of College Extension, consist-
ing of four distinct sections — the Department of Farmers'
Institutes and Demonstrations, the Department of Highway
Engineering and Irrigation, the Department of Home Eco-
nomics, and the Department of Correspondence-Study — each
with its own head and staff; the Board of Regents made the
Director of Extension, Dean of the Division of College Ex-
tension.
The principal value of the Agricultural College, as a teach-
ing factor, must be in the training it is able to give to the
young people who enter upon and continue through its courses
Division of College Extension 303
of study, in residence. The Agricultural Experiment Station,
as a nutural adjunct to the College, has its great field in the
discovery of new truths relating to agriculture. So long, how-
ever, as the institution limits its efforts to these lines, it is
evident that only a small proportion of the people of a state
can derive direct and practical benefit from the work of the
College. The progress of agricultural education would be
slow indeed if the Agricultural College did not Offer other
forms of instruction to the people of the State. The same
economic principle that justified the expenditure of public
funds for educating young people who are able to attend the
College justifies a similar expenditure for the purpose of
taking the College to those who are not able to come to it.
State education is not philanthropy, but self-protection — fore-
sight. An educated citizenship is a prosperous citizenship.
The Kansas State Agricultural College, through its several
lines of extension, conducted meetings during the year ending
June 30, 1912, with an aggregate attendance of 349,967 people
— more than one-fifth of the population of the State.
While this work is directed by the Division of College Ex-
tension, the scope would be very limited were it not for the co-
operation of the other divisions and departments of the Col-
lege in supplying speakers for institutes, assistants in various
lines of demonstration work, teachers for movable schools, and
wise counsel in the various lines of public effort.
Farmers' Institutes and Demonstrations
Edw. 0. Johnson - , Superintendent
P. E. Obabtbee, Farm Crops
0. H. Taylor, Animal Husbandry
G-eo. O. Greene, Horticulture
A. S. Neale, Dairy Husbandry
W. A. Boys, Demonstration Agent, West Central Kansas

H. J. Bower, Demonstration Agent, Southeastern Kansas
H. T. Nielson, Demonstration Agent, Northwestern Kansas
The farmers' institutes of the State have regular officers, constitutions
and by-laws, and are required by law to meet at least annually. Many of
these organizations also hold six or more monthly meetings. The College
plans to send one or more speakers to present at a meeting certain well-
defined lessons in some branch of agriculture. The speakers and their
subjects are chosen because of a known need or interest in a particular
community, and with a view to starting or encouraging certain definite
lines of agricultural work. Effort has been made to build up a fixed
membership in these institutes, and the list of members reported to this
department up to March 1, 1914, is about 16,000. This membership roll
constitutes the mailing list for the regular pamphlets issued by this
department to the members of the farmers' institutes. In addition to
these pamphlets, each member who fills out and returns a membership
blank will receive from the College, from the Government, or from some
State Experiment Station such other obtainable literature as his interests
304 Kansas State Agricultural College
demand. Each year some special topic, such as live stock, plant breeding,
gardening, orcharding, or dairying, is made especially prominent in insti-
tute programs, either for the whole State or for certain specified districts.
Special meetings are held by approximately two-thirds of the institutes,
for the discussion, on certain designated days, of special subjects, such
as "Alfalfa/' "Poultry," "Good Roads," "Seed Selection," "Silos and
Silage," "The Farm Horse," etc.
The programs for all regular meetings are based on suggestive out-
lines sent out by the Institute Department. When these are returned by
the local committees, the programs and posters are printed and sent out
free. The department furnishes literature, on request, for members who
are to take part in the program of an institute, a grange, or other organ-
ization. During the campaign beginning September 1, 1913, and ending
March 15, 1914, the College assisted in the holding of 1.83 two-day insti-
tutes and 221 one-day institutes — a total of 404 institutes, having an
aggregate attendance of more than 73,320 farmers, with their families.
MONTHLY MEETINGS
One of the most important features of the farmers' institute work in
this State is the custom of having each farmers' institute organization
hold from six to nine monthly meetings. These meetings are held usually
on the afternoon of the second Saturday of each month from September
to May. The Department of Farmers' Institutes suggests the subject for
discussion, and the same subject is to be discussed in each and every
institute in the State. In this way certain very important subjects have
been discussed by thousands of farmers at seasonable times, looking to
somewhat general unanimity of action. The subjects discussed at these
monthly meetings have included such as "Home Orchard," "The Silo,"
"Seed-bed Preparation for Corn," "Seed-bed Preparation for Wheat,"
"Care of Brood Sow and Litter," "Sorghum," "Road Improvement,"
"Consolidation of Rural Schools," etc. The department has made a re-
quirement that every institute must hold at least three of these monthly
meetings, in addition to the annual meeting, before being entitled to aid
from the county.
DEMONSTRATION FARMING
General Field Demonstrations. After speakers from the Agricul-
tural College have attended institute meetings and discussed certain
methods of farming, requests have come from farmers that the College
send men into those communities to put to a practical test the theories
advocated. Therefore, four or five members of the department have
usually spent the time from March to July in various field demonstrations,
including pruning and spraying orchards, building silos, inspecting dairy
herds, making plans for dairy barns, visiting farmers and advising as to
farm management.
District Demonstration Agents. In addition to the advisory demon-
stration work indicated in the preceding paragraph, the College has em-
ployed four district demonstration agents, one with headquarters at
Norton, with demonstration work in several counties in the northwestern
corner of the State. Another district demonstration agent has heen
Division of College Extension 305
located at Hays, conducting work in counties along the Union Pacific lines
in western Kansas. A third district demonstration agent has been located
at Dodge City, conducting demonstrations in the counties in the south-
western part of the State, the College being assisted in salary and ex-
penses by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company and the
United States Department of Agriculture. A fourth district demonstra-
tion agent has been assigned several counties in southeastern Kansas,
with headquarters at Parsons, the College being assisted here by the
United States Department of Agriculture. These men conduct demonstra-
tions on from four to six farms in each county in the assigned territory
in the growing of crops and in the feeding of stock.
County Demonstration Agents. The College has assisted in the
location of five county demonstration agents in the following counties:
' Leavenworth, Montgomery, Cowley, Allen, and Harvey. The College,
however, assumes no expense for the work of these agents, but directs the
various demonstrations.
BOYS' AND GIRLS' CONTESTS
In the hope of creating a keener interest in rural life, contests in
growing corn, potatoes, etc., and in baking, fruit canning, and sewing
were inaugurated. They are usually considered a part of the work of the
farmers' institutes and are for the most part conducted by these organiza-
tions. Prizes are arranged for, which in some counties aggregate as much
as $400. Prizes for boys and girls fifteen years old and over are given in
the form of free trips to the State institute held at the Agricultural Col-
lege each winter. This is clearly educational work, and many county
school superintendents state that these contests in corn, bread, etc., have
stimulated the entire year's work of country schools. Beginning with
1911, the rules for the contest were changed, and three additional recom-
mendations were made: (1) Each boy shall plant one acre of corn, from
which his ten ears must be selected for the contest. (2) Any boy may join
a yield contest, provided he notify the executive committee of his institute,
on or before the first of October, that he thinks his acre will yield, for all
territory east of the Sixth Principal Meridian, seventy-five bushels, for
the next three counties west (to the west line of Barton and Smith coun-
ties), sixty bushels, and in all territory farther west, forty bushels per
acre, of corn or kafir. (3) Institute committees are urged to introduce,
for boys between the ages of seventeen and twenty-two, a five-acre con-
test; the contestant to notify the committee on or before the first of Octo-
ber that he thinks his corn will yield seventy-five, sixty, or forty-five
bushels per acre, according to territory. The College recommends that
the prize for the one winner in this contest be $50 cash on condition that
the winner attend the Farmers' Short Course at the Agricultural College
for ten weeks.
BOYS' AND GIRLS' MEETINGS
The College is inaugurating a system of special meetings for the boys
and girls who engage in the various contests. This work will usually be
conducted in the form of a county campaign, consisting of four or six
afternoon meetings a week, for the purpose of reaching the boys and
girls engaged in the various contests. "When these young people become
306 Kansas State Agricultural College
sufficiently interested the representatives of the College will assist them
in forming organizations to be known as boys' good farming clubs
and girls' home economics clubs. The College is also organizing, in
towns and villages of the State, "boys' poultry clubs" and "boys' garden
clubs." "Girls' flower clubs" will also be organized where there are no
"city beautiful leagues." Special circuits will be arranged for these boys'
and girls' meetings, similar to those of the regular farmers' institutes,
and the officers of these clubs will report to a College official as do the
officers of the institutes.
MOVABLE SCHOOLS IN AGRICULTURE
As a means of intensifying the work of the farmers' institutes,
movable schools are to be held in those communities that have high
institute records. Schools will be conducted in dairying, poultry,
orcharding, stock judging and breeding, corn culture, road making,
and concrete construction. These schools will continue for three days,
from nine A. M. to four P. M. There must be a membership of not
less than twenty-five nor more than forty, and each member must pay
a fee of one dollar to meet the necessary expenses. Where- a class of sixty
is formed, two instructors will be sent and two courses will be offered.
In case a single school possesses a total membership of sixty men and
forty women, the instruction may be continued for a period of five days.
SCHOOL CAMPAIGNS
A state campaign for agricultural education would be incomplete if it
did not affect the rural schools. According to a recent legislative enact-
ment, all teachers are hereafter required to take an examination in ele-
mentary agriculture. It is not required that agriculture be taught in the
rural schools of the State, but within the next two years it will undoubt-
edly become a part of the daily course of study of every school in Kansas.
In cooperation with the county school superintendents and institute
workers, the Agricultural College is each year holding "schoolhouse cam-
paigns" in a few counties, for the purpose of stimulating interest in
agriculture among children, teachers, and patrons. In these campaigns
the College representative is usually able to speak in four schoolhouses
each day, and to give a lecture in the evening, either in a rural school-
house or in some village. The representatives sent to the different coun-
ties are chosen with reference to the prevailing interests of the respective
localities.
AGRICULTURAL TRAINS
The College has enjoyed for several years the cooperation of the
leading railroads of Kansas in the matter of special educational trains,
such as corn, alfalfa, wheat, dairy, drainage, and good roads trains.
By this means it has been possible to meet many thousands of people
and to impress upon them in a forceful way the importance of seed
selection, of improved methods of culture, of the value of better dairy
stock, silos, etc.
COOPERATIVE ASSOCIATIONS
Another form of effort to make practical the instructions given in the
farmers' institutes is the organization of cooperative breeding associa-
tions, fruit growers' associations, vegetable growers' associations, com-
Division of College Extension 307
munity breeding associations, etc. Year by year greater effort is being
made to induce farmers to put into practical operation the plans dis-
cussed at the meetings.
EXHIBITS AT FAIRS
For four years the Department of Farmers' Institutes and Demonstra-
tions has been preparing and furnishing for county fairs a very complete
exhibit relating to agriculture and home economics, the exhibit consisting
of from fourteen to sixteen large boxes containing charts, photographs
and other illustrative material, illustrating important agricultural experi-
ments and important agricultural and economic information.
PUBLICATIONS
Since definite subjects are selected for each year's institute work,
with a view to bringing about a certain unanimity of action, it seems
appropriate that some of these subjects be treated more at length, be
published in pamphlet form, and then be mailed to all institute members.
These pamphlets were first issued as special numbers of The Industrialist,
but later, under the name of Agricultural Education, were entered in
the post office as a regular periodical. There is a membership fee in
all institutes; all members receive free from four to six or more
numbers of the periodical during each year. A large edition *of each
number is printed, and back numbers are mailed to new members until
the supply is exhausted.
Highway Engineering and Irrigation
W. S. Q-earhabt, State Highway Engineer
H. B. Walkeb, Drainage and Irrigation
A. R. Losh, Assistant Engineer
C. I. Felps, Assistant Engineer
W. J. King, Assistant Engineer
HIGHWAY ENGINEERING
It is eminently proper that the Agricultural College should maintain a
trained highway engineer who is primarily the State adviser for county
and city officials on matters relating to roads and bridges. He makes
plans and specifications for bridges and culverts and advises as to their
location. He examines proposed highway improvements, and, if it is
desired, makes plans and specifications for such road work, whether the
improvement contemplates the use of macadam, oil, or sand-clay, or is
simply to be an improved earth road. Later, if desired, he will inspect all
bridge and road work on its completion, and report its condition to the
proper county or city officials. All such work is done without charge to
the local community, other than for actual traveling expenses. When
other work will permit, he also advises bridge contractors, and furnishes
plans., specifications, etc., on the same terms as to officials, except that
the contractor will be charged the actual cost of a draftsman's time in
drawing the plans.
DRAINAGE AND IRRIGATION ENGINEERING
It has been found by careful investigation that there are more than
twenty counties in eastern Kansas where large areas of valuable land
are in great need of systematic tile drainage. In October, 1910, the
308 Kansas State Agricultural College
Agricultural College employed, and Is now maintaining, a public drainage
engineer whose duties are outlined much as are the duties of others con-
nected with this department — attending farmers 7 institutes from October
to March, and from March to October advising with farmers, county sur-
veyors, and engineers, relative to the best and most economical plans of
straightening creeks and rivers, and draining fields and farms, and of
developing plants for farm irrigation. To this engineer are assigned
all problems relating to farm irrigation and land drainage. His services
are absolutely free other than the usual charge for traveling and local
expenses.
Home Economics
Frances L. Brown
Florence Snell
Adah Lewis
Edith Allen
While thousands of young women have had residence instruction in
domestic science at the Agricultural College, there are still many other
thousands who have been unable to take advantage of the excellent facili-
ties which the College possesses in this field. Therefore, the Division of
College Extension employs four competent teachers and demonstrators
in this subject, to carry instruction in home economics to these absent
ones. These teachers attend farmers' institutes for the regular institute
period of five months, hold "movable schools" for three months, and then
hold "women's meetings," and attend teachers' institutes, chautauquas,
grange meetings, women's club meetings, etc., the rest of the year. At
all times an extensive correspondence is carried on with the women and
girls of the State. Girls' home economics clubs are also organized in
high schools and in rural neighborhoods, using regular cooking and sew-
ing lessons sent out from the department. Correspondence with women's
clubs is also invited relative to occasional lessons in cookery, for which
printed lessons are sent on request.
MOVABLE SCHOOLS IN HOME ECONOMICS
The College is able to reach a limited number of persons by means of its
actual class and laboratory work. The institute program reaches many
more with its system of lectures and addresses. In addition, the movable
schools in home economics, giving definite courses of instruction which
occupy at one place a period of one week, enable the College to carry its
educational services directly to the homes of the people. These schools
continue during a single week; from 1:15 P.M., Monday, to 11:45 a.m.,
Saturday. The sessions of the schools of economics are conducted accord-
ing to the following program: cookery, from 9 to 11:45; sewing, from
1:15 to 3:45; "round table" for the public, from 4 to 5. For a course to
be organized, it" should have not less than twenty and not more than forty
members. A fee of one dollar a member is paid to the local committee
for the purchase of supplies, and for the entertainment of the two College
teachers who conduct the class. No visitors are permitted until after the
conclusion of the day's work, at 3:45 P. M. The sessions of the schools
are held in the months of March, April, May, and September.
Division of College Extension 309
GIRLS' HOME ECONOMICS CLUBS
The College is able to give personal instruction in home economics each
year to only about eight hundred girls; through the movable schools it
is not likely- that more than five hundred women and girls can be reached
annually with the limited instruction that can be given by the present
force of teachers during the periods of one week each; through the
farmers' institutes and women's institutes, not more than five thousand
women are likely to receive the information that can be given in the more
or less formal discussions ; through correspondence courses it is not prob-
able that more than a few hundred persons will be reached. The College
is, therefore, undertaking in addition the work of organizing hundreds of
girls' home economics clubs in town and village high schools, and in
rural communities. A certificate is granted to a club having six charter
members, although better results are likely to follow from a larger mem-
bership. Printed lessons in cooking and sewing are supplied by the sec-
retary of the club, together with blanks for reports, which are to be
handed in after each lesson. Literature relating to the work being con-
ducted is sent by the College to the individual members of the clubs. In
a limited way this is a form of correspondence study, and girls can to a
certain extent be prepared for either the regular correspondence courses,
for domestic science work in high school or college, or for their usual
home duties. The work also prepares the way for the regular teaching
of domestic science and art in the high schools of the State. It is hoped
that it may be arranged for a College representative to visit these clubs
annually. A small charge, to be paid the College, is required of each
club organized under the College auspices.
Correspondence Study
J. O. Werner, Director
Geo. E. Brat, Assistant
The Kansas State Agricultural College offers to the men and boys and
the women and girls of Kansas an opportunity to study agriculture, home
economics, mechanic arts, and farm engineering at home, alone, or in
groups, believing that it is as much a part of the province of the institu-
tion to offer such instruction to those who can not attend the College
class as it is to offer instruction to those who are able to undertake studies
at the College. Opportunity is therefore offered for systematic study by
correspondence in many subjects which have a direct bearing upon the
problems of the farm and the home.
Three lines of work are offered for the purpose of helping those who
have only limited time to study on any particular subject, but who need
help, and then more extended courses for those who have more time. An
oportunity is also offered for those who wish to study with the idea of
securing college credit.
310 Kansas State Agricultural College
FOR WHOM INTENDED
The correspondence courses here outlined should be of especial interest
to the following classes of persons :
(1) Boys and girls who have completed the common-school course of
study, but who can not immediately attend a high school or other pre-
paratory school.
(2) Young men and women who feel that their school days are over,
but who have aspirations, not yet satisfied, for a better education.
(3) Men and women of middle life who wish to know more of the
sciences of the farm and of the home.
(4) Men who have been farming along general lines, but who have
developed an interest in some special kind of work, such as orcharding or
dairying, and who wish to direct their attention chiefly to that field.
(5) Road supervisors who need to know more of the science of road
making, the building of culverts, etc., but who can not afford to stop their
work and take a special course.
(6) Men and women who have passed middle life, who are about to
retire from active farming, but who intend to keep their minds young
by study, and who desire to enrich their own experience by adding to
what they themselves have gained a knowledge of what has been dis-
covered by others.
(7) Capitalists and business men who are holding investments in
lands, and who should know how to make those investments increase
in value.
(8) Teachers who desire to teach agriculture or home economics in
special classes, or who wish to learn how to enrich their teaching in the
sciences.
Only a small percentage of the farming population of Kansas is able
to attend the classes in the Agricultural College; in all, about 100,000
people attend the farmers' institutes; a few hundred attend the movable
schools. There still remain nearly a million adult people living in the
country, few of whom have ever read carefully a single book on farm
crops, dairying, horticulture, farm drainage, or the like. The College is
now prepared to offer correspondence courses in the following subjects:

312 Kansas State Agricultural College
Student Organizations
STUDENT COUNCIL
The student council is a representative body which was organized by
the students in 1909 and received official sanction from the Board of
Regents and the Faculty of the College. Its objects are: "(1) To act as
a representative body before the governing officers of the College in all
matters that concern the individual students, student organizations, or
the student body as a whole; (2) to act as a body of mediation between
different student organizations or enterprises whenever such service is
sought by such organizations or enterprises; (3) to take cognizance of all
matters that pertain to the good name and scholarship of the student
body, to the end that high standards of honor on the campus and else-
where may be maintained."
This student council consists of four members elected from the senior
class, three from the junior, two from the sophomore, and one from the
freshman class. In addition, the School of Agriculture elects a delegate,
who has the privilege of speaking on subjects pertaining to his school,
but has no vote. At each meeting of the council a committee of the College
Faculty may also be present to participate in the discussions. The mem-
bers of the council are elected each term, but at each election at least two
of the representatives of the senior class and one of those of the junior
class must be reelected.
The student council occupies an interesting and valuable place in the
College life, and as a whole may be said to be an unqualified success in
establishing a system of representative government among the students
touching affairs peculiarly their own, and also in matters involving the
Faculty. All acts of the council are submitted to the President of the
College, and if they concern the rules, regulations, or ordinances of the
College, are subject to approval by the proper governing body. The
council is especially helpful in maintaining a high standard of honor
among the students in both individual and organized relations. As a
means of securing a better understanding in matters likely to cause fric-
tion between the student body and the Faculty, the council performs a
most important function.
THE CHRISTIAN ASOCIATIONS
The Young Men's Christian Association and the Young Women's
Christian Association are organizations of the greatest worth and value
in the College community, forming centers of moral culture and religious
stimulus among the young men and women during their developmental
period. As is well known, the Christian associations in colleges stand for
the best ideals among the students, and are always accorded the cordial
support of the authorities. In addition to general moral and spiritual
development, the College Christian associations are of practical and
Student Organizations 313
efficient influence among the students in many directions. Membership
in these associations is limited to persons connected with Protestant
evangelical churches, but others are admitted as associate members.
THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.
The College Y. M. C. A. has always been a strong and influential body
among the students. Its growth may be indicated by the fact that the
organization was able in 1908 to erect a handsome building for its pur-
poses at a cost of $35,000, on the corner of Eleventh and Fremont streets,
near the College grounds.
This building contains reading rooms, eighteen students' living rooms,
a dining hall, and a gymnasium 42 x 70 feet, provided with lockers,
baths, etc. The building with its conveniences is open free to all students,
although a small fee of five dollars a year is charged for the use of the
gymnasium and baths. One of the useful and practical features of the
Y. M. C. A. is a students' employment bureau, which is maintained for
the benefit of all students seeking employment. The religious work of the
organization includes various courses for the study of the Bible and the
work of Christian missions, which are maintained through the winter.
The regular religious meetings of the association occur on Thursday
evenings from 6:45 to 7:30, while occasional Sunday afternoon meetings
are also held. Special meetings and receptions, which serve to broaden
the acquaintanceship of the students and promote good-fellowship, are
arranged from time to time. Especial attention is given the new students
©n and after their arrival, and assistance is rendered in securing rooms
and boarding places for them. The association maintains a regulr sec-
retary, with whom prospective students are cordially encouraged to
correspond. Address, General Secretary, Y. M. C. A., Kansas State
Agricultural College, Manhattan, Kan.
YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION
Similar in aim and purpose to the organization of the young men is
the Young Women's Christian Association. The Y. W. C. A. home, at
905 Fremont street, is the permanent headquarters of the association, to
which all young women of the College are at all times heartily welcome.
An office for the secretary and a girls' rest room are also maintained
during the College year on the first floor, southwest corner, of the
Domestic Science and Art Building. The rooms at the College are open
to visitors at any hour of the day and are attractively furnished with
conveniences for rest and study.
At the association home, informal gatherings and entertainments lend
variety and cheer to the life of the young women members and their
friends.
An employment bureau for women students is maintained by the gen-
eral secretary, without charge to its beneficiaries. Various committees
are responsible for the lines of work of the association. One of the
most practical of these is the investigation of cases of illness among the
College girls, and the rendering of assistance when necessary. At the
beginning of the College terms the incoming trains are met by a com-
mittee of girls wearing purple bows, by means of which they may easily
314 Kansas State Agricultural College
be recognized. This committee engages in assisting new women students
in securing suitable lodging and boarding places.
During the College year various social functions are held; for the
benefit of the College women. The first of these is an informal reception,
held on the first Friday following the opening of College, in order to
enable the College girls to become better acquainted with one another.
Once each year, in the winter term, the two associations entertain jointly.
The religious life of the Young Women's Association is fostered by
weekly religious meetings, by courses in the study of the Bible, and in
special Sunday services, for which outside speakers are often obtained.
Courses for the study of mission work are also conducted.
THE NEWMAN CLUB
The Newman Club, an organization of Catholic students, holds a social
meeting every other Friday evening, and on the alternate Friday even-
ings the time is devoted to some line of religious study under the direc-
tion of the local pastor. The College authorities recognize this Bible study
by allowing a two-hour credit for it when properly certified. In further
recognition of the club's efforts the College has placed a set of the new
Catholic Encyclopedia on its library shelves. Furthermore, the club has
purchased and placed in the College library nearly one-hundred dollars'
worth of Catholic books and pamphlets.
The club is now on a sound basis and is qualifying for affiliation with
a national organization of Newman clubs of the various state universities
and colleges. Its aim is to favorably influence new Catholic students in
the knowledge and practice of their faith, to foster sound morality and
good character.
LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC SOCIETIES
The literary societies of the College, eight in number, are wholly
students' organizations, holding weekly meetings in the College buildings.
The Alpha Beta and Franklin societies are open to both sexes; the
Ionian, Eurodelphian, and Browning societies admit only young women
to membership, while the Webster, Hamilton, and Athenian societies
admit young men only. Students are encouraged to join one of these
organizations for the sake of practice in the use of language, training
in debate, and general experience in conducting meetings and in dealing
with their fellows. These societies jointly maintain a debating council
which cooperates with a Faculty committee in arranging for all inter-
collegiate and interstate debates participated in by representatives of the
College. The oratorical board, similarly maintained by these societies,
arranges for the intersociety and intercollegiate oratorical contests.
THE SCIENCE CLUB
This is an organization of instructors and students for the promotion
and advancement of science at the College. Membership is open to all
persons interested in science. The meetings are held on the first Monday
evening of each month in the lecture room of the Department of Chem-
istry in Physical Science Hall. All papers given at these meetings repre-
sent original work in science done at the institution. The program is
further characterized by free discussion of the papers presented and by
general scientific notes and news contributed by the members.
Student Organizations 315
AMERICAN INSTITUTE OP ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS
This national organization of electrical engineers has a College branch,
which holds its meetings on the first Tuesday evening of each month in
the rooms of the Department of Electrical Engineering on the first floor
of Physical Science Hall. At these meetings papers and discussions of,
professional interest are presented. Membership is confined to instructors
:;md students in electrical engineering.
THE AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION
The Agricultural Association, composed of students especially in-
terested in agricultural progress, holds meetings every two weeks, on
Monday evening, in Fairchild Hall. This organization has steadily in-
creased in numbers and interest until it is a potent and progressive
factor in spreading the gospel of agricultural betterment.
THE CADET CORPS
Under the provisions of the Morrill act of 1862, under which the Col-
lege was founded, instruction in military science and tactics is obliga-
tory. Military science and drill are required of all men students in the
freshman and sophomore years. This body of young men is formed into
a cadet corps, organized into two battalions of infantry, under the com-
mand of a United States regular army officer in active service, tempo-
rarily detailed to this duty. The cadet corps is officered by upper class-
men and constitutes a body under excellent discipline and training, and
•of attractive military bearing.
The uniforms are of the West Point pattern, and the insignia of rank
:are those of the United States infantry. The uniform is required to be
worn while on military duty by all students subject to the drill regula-
tions, and by reason of its neat appearance and serviceable character it
is also quite frequently used by the under classmen for daily wear. Mil-
itary discipline and training for a short time in a student's life has
undoubted value in creating habits of obedience, neatness, and precision.
THE COLLEGE BAND
The College band is a military organization, composed of cadets
assigned to this duty for the College year in lieu of drill and technical
military instruction. The band is limited in its membership, and attend-
ance of the members upon its exercises is obligatory. It has proved an
effective aid to the cadet corps, stimulating a love for martial music, and
affording an attractive feature of the various public ceremonial occasions
at the College.
THE COLLEGE ORCHESTRA
The orchestra is a student organization connected with the Depart-
ment of Music, membership in which is voluntary. Its daily training
under competent leadership results in the acquisition of a considerable
repertoire of musical compositions of the best quality. Those connected
with the orchestra obtain in this way familiarity with the works of
many of the great composers, and among the students at large the orches-
tra is an efficient aid in cultivating a taste for and an appreciation of
good music.
316 Kansas State Agricultural College
ATHLETIC ORGANIZATIONS
By means of the new gymnasium the College is now prepared to give
complete physical as well as mental training. This building, which is
equipped with all the usual accessories, assists in developing and main-
taining physical tone and health in the student body. In addition to the
gymnasium classes, and physical training in the military corps of cadets,
all young men are encouraged to develop their physical skill by playing on
practice teams in various athletic lines. In the fall, football teams are
organized; in the fall and winter basketball; while in the spring baseball,
tennis, and track athletics prevail. Every possible encouragement is
given all students desirous of participating in these games to enter the
practice teams and receive the necessary instruction. The most pro-
ficient of these have opportunity to enter the first teams and participate
in intercollegiate contests. The College authorities encourage all reason-
able and sane athletic development, as a means for the training of
physical qualities desirable in men everywhere. Professionalizing ten-
dencies are strictly repressed, and the athletic rules adopted by the
Faculty prevent, by proper regulation, all participation in intercollegiate
games on the part of students deficient in their studies.
The women sudents have equal opportunity for general physical train-
ing with the young men. In the gymnasium, under a physical director,
they receive training suitable to their needs. Basketball and tennis
teams are organized among the young women.
