FARMERS' SHORT COURSE.

Students who have not the time necessary for the full course, and yet desire better to fit themselves to be successful farmers, may give exclusive attention to the technical Agricultural studies, including Veterinary Science, and complete these in one year. The studies of the second, or winter term of this course, are arranged so as to be profitably studied by those who can be in attendance only during that term.
