for repeated stresses; resilience; reliability of the common theory of flexure, as shown by actual experiment; design and strength of rolled and built beams and columns; specifications for materials and methods of testing. Merrimari s Mechanics of Materials. Winter term, full study. Professor TALBOT. Required: Math. 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9; Theoretical and Applied Mechanics 1. Hydraulics.—In hydraulics the instruction is by text book and laboratory work. The subject covers the following: Weight and pressure of water; head; center of pressure; velocity and discharge through orifices, weirs, tubes, pipes, conduits, canals, and rivers; measurement of pressure, velocity, and discharge; motors and meters; water power. Merriman's Hydraulics. Spring term, full study. ProfessoR TALBOTRequired: Math. 2, 4, 6, 7; Theoretical and Applied Mechanics 1,2. Applied Mechanics.—To be taken instead of Analytical Mechanics. The course of study and topics studied will be nearly identical. Peck's Elementary Mechanics. Fall term, full study. Assistant Professor MYERS.

Required: Mathematics 2, 4, 6. Strength of Materials.—To be taken instead of Resistance of Materials. The course of study will be nearly the same, though somewhat simplified. Merriman's Mechanics of Materials. Winter term, full study. Assistant Professor MYERS. Required: Mathematics 2, 4, 6; Theoretical and Applied Mechanics 4. VETERINARY SCIENCE. Anatomy and Physiology.—The anatomy and physiology of the domestic animals constitute the subjects of instruction for a term. The instruction is given by lectures, aided by demonstrations with use of skeletons and models illustrating the details of structure and formation of parts. This is supplemented by the study of text books. Strangeway's Veterinary Anatomy; Smith's Physiology of the Domestic Animals. Fall term, full study. Professor MCINTOSH. Principles and Practice of Veterinary Medicine.—This subject comprises veterinary medicine, surgery, and hygiene, and is taught by lectures and text books, and illustrated by specimens of morbid anatomy, with observations and practice at the clinics. The latter are held at the veterinary infirmary, where a large number of animals are treated or operated upon once each week. Dissections and
