INSTRUCTION.

The full course occupies four years and includes special agricultural, horticultural and veterinary studies. The first are designated : Elements of Agriculture, Agricultural Engineering and Architecture, Animal Husbandry, Kural Economy and General Farm Management, and History of Agriculture. The special horticultural studies are: Elements of Horticulture, Pomology and Forestry, Floriculture, Plant Houses and their Management, and Landscape Gardening. The veterinary studies are: Anatomy and Physiology of Domestic Animals, Veterinary Medicines, Principles and Practice of Veterinary Science, Veterinary Sanitary Science, etc. During the spring term there is a clinic at the infirmary, where numerous cases of diseased animals are presented and treated before the class free of charge to the owners. Instruction is usually given by lectures and illustrations from the College grounds and collections. The diversified farm crops, the living animals and plants, the collection of machinery, the buildings and appointments, are all useful in making instruction practical and possible. For those whose time is limited, a one year's course of technical study is provided. Special horticultural studies may also be chosen for one year's work.
