There are OM full courses in vetrinarv science, pe botany, bacteriology, stock breed |, { ing, stock feeding, darying, cheese j |, making, horticulture, and the ap c|. plication of these sciences to the art of farming. These, with ire- .... ology and chemistry and the ),v literary studies pervading the c*ij whole course of four years, 19 thoroughly equip a young man ,H for successful farming. ho It is now recognized that study js| of the sciences gives a culture equal to that attained by a study | of any other course.
