(JTTHE second session of the Maryland Agricultural College
QJ, Summer School for Rural Teachers will begin on Monday,
June 21st, and continue for six weeks. The success of the
first session in meeting the demand for this special training
seems to warrant the large increase in the number of courses
offered this year, and the addition of a number of specialists to
the teaching force. The addition of the College credit and the
review courses will widen the scope of work so that there will be
opportunity for instruction for teachers in every grade of school
work. The courses are open to all men and women who are
qualified to pursue the chosen work to an advantage. The
instruction in the Summer School, which is an integral part of
the College work, is free to all residents of Maryland.

LOCATION.

The Maryland Agricultural College is located in Prince
George's County, Maryland, on the Washington Division of the
B. & 0, R. R., eight miles from Washington, and thirty-two
miles from Baltimore.

The College grounds front on the Baltimore and Washington
Boulevard. The site of the College is particularly beautiful.
The buildings occupy the crest of a commanding hill, Avhich is
covered with forest trees, and overlooks a broad vallej" and a
number of suburban towns. In front, extending to the Boule,-
vard, is a broad, rolling campus, the drill ground and athletic
field of the students. A quarter of a mile to the northeast are
the buildings of the Experiment Station. The College farm
contains about three hundred acres, and is devoted to fields,
gardens, orchards, vineyards, poultry, etc., used for experi-
mental purposes and demonstration work in agriculture.

ACCOMMODATIONS. ' U .

The new dormitory, Calvert Hall, w^ill be reserved fbr the
women applicants. The house used by former presidents ojTthi
College, which is located on the campus, is reserved for tiie ifieiTT
Miss Emma S.- Jacobs, who will be in charge of the Domestic

(1)

Science courses, will have general supervision of the women's
quarters, and will be ready at any time to advise women students.
Ample accommodations may be had in the village or in the
nearby towns of Berwyn, Hyattsville and Riverdale. Dormitory
students should supply themselves with towels, pillowcases,
sheets and a blanket. Students who expect to register for the
Domestic Science work should bring with them two large white
aprons, two crash towels (one-half yard square) and a holder
(four inches square) . Laundry facilities will be provided by the
College.

REGISTRATION.

Monday, June 21st, will be registration day. Students should
register on Monday, and be ready for class work Tuesday, the
22nd. Students may register in advance by filling out the
enclosed blank, and mailing it to the Director of the Summer
School.

EXPENSES.

The instruction is free to all students of Maryland and the
District of Columbia. A registration fee of five dollars will be
charged to all applicants. This fee will be used to defray the
expense of athletic property, library, janitor service and general
use of College property. A special fee, which is named in con-
nection with the description of each College, credit course, will
be charged for the use of laboratory materials.

The cost of board at the College dining hall will be twenty-
four dollars for the entire term, or at the rate of four dollars
per week. The room rent in the dormitory is one dollar per
week. The board and room in the villages varies from five to
seven dollars per week.

CREDITS.

The Agricultural College will give entrance or college credit,
respectively, in subjects in which the student performs the
requisite amount of work. College credit courses may be pur-
sued only by students who have fulfilled college entrance require-
ments. Students completing the summer-school work in any of
the subjects, and passing a satisfactory examination, will be
issued a certificate showing the amount and grade of work done.

BOOKS.

\ - -

The College and Experiment Station Library will be open
students ' use. It contains a large number of carefully chosen

reference books in the Sciences, History, Biography, Poetry and
the standard works of fiction. In addition, it contains a complete
set of State and National reports and surveys.

Teachers pursuing the review courses should bring with
them any text-books relating to the subjects in which they expect
to receive instruction. A nominal charge will be made for any
text-books loaned by the College.

CONFERENCE HOUR.

The Conference Hour is planned for two specific purposes.
First, to give the student an opportunity to confer with in-
structors on subjects relative to their school w*ork. Second, an
hour during which men of prominence in their special lines of
work will address the students, or conduct "Round Table" dis-
cussions. These lectures will be by appointment.

EXCURSIONS.

The vicinity of College Park abounds in places of historic
and geologic interest. The College farm, with its experiments
in fertilizers, field crops, market gardens, fruits, dairy herd and
poultry plant, will afford ample opportunity for useful study.
The District of Columbia, which is only four miles distant, will
give the students an unusual opportunity to visit and study the
National Departments of our government. Following the plan
of last year, prearranged excursions to these places of interest
will be features of the Saturdays' program.

ATHLETICS.

Students will have use of the Athletic Field, Tennis Courts,
Gymnasium and the Y. M. C. A. game rooms. A competent
instructor will be in charge of the games and organized play.

COURSES.

The courses are divided into three groups : Eeview Courses
in Elementary School Subjects, Secondary Courses in Vocational
and Science Subjects, and College Credit Courses. It is highly
desirable for the students pursuing the review courses to enroll
for at least one of the Vocational or Science subjects. Students
who matriculate for College credit work will be limited to two
or three courses, according to the character of the courses pur-
sued. A "unit" of college credit represents one hour of theoreti-
cal work per week for one year ; or two hours of practical \v'ork
per week for one year. * - ..

SCHOLARSHIPS.

To encourage worthy young men who desire a Collegiate
Education, the Board of Trustees has established for each high-
school in Maryland and the District of Columbia one scholar-
ship each year.

The person awarded the scholarship must be a graduate of
an approved high-school, and qualified to enter the Freshman
class, and must be of approved character and at least 15 years
of age.

The appointment to a scholarship shall be made by the
School Superintendent, upon the recommendation and certifica-
tion of the Principal of the High-School.

Each scholarship has the value of $50.00 per year.

Counties which do not have a high-school will be given one
$50.00 scholarship each year, and the recipient may enter the
Sub-Freshman class. The appointment to the scholarship is to
be made by the County Superintendent after a competitive
examination.

Industrial scholarships, the value of which is determined by
the amount and character of work done, are awarded to worthy
young men of limited means.

MARYLAND AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.

HISTORY

"An act to establish and endow an agricultural college in the
State of Maryland" was passed by the Legislature of the State in
1856, and is found in Chapter 97 of the Laws of Maryland for that
year. The scope of this act of incorporation is shown by the
preamble, which reads as follows:

Wheeeas, It has been represented to the Legislature, that certain
wise and virtuous citizens are desirous of instituting and establishing
in some convenient locality within this State, an Agricultural College
and Model Farm, in which the youthful student may especially be
instructed in those arts and sciences indispensable to successful
agricultural pursuits; and

Whekeas, It doth appear to this Legislature, that while the wise
and learned in the present age hath cultivated with laudable industry,
and applied with admirable success the arts and sciences to other
pursuits, the most necessary, useful and honorable pursuits of agricul-
turists have so far been lamentably neglected; and

Whebeas, It is the province and duty of the Legislature to encour-
age and aid the philanthropic citizens in their efforts to disseminate
useful knowledge by establishing an Agricultural College and Model
Farm, which shall, in addition to the usual course of scholastic
training, particularly indoctrinate the youth of Maryland, theoretically
and practically, in those arts and sciences, which with good manners
and morals, shall enable them to subdue the earth and elevate the
State to the lofty position its advantages in soil, climate, etc., and
- the moral and mental capacities of its citizens, entitle it to attain.

This was the first effort in the Western Hemisphere to use
scientific investigation for the advancement of the vocation of Agri-
culture, since at that time no other institution of a similar char-
acter existed in the United States. Under the charter thus granted
to a party of public-spirited individuals, the original College build-
ing was erected, and its doors were opened to students in the fall
of 1859.

For three years it was conducted as a private institution. In
1862, the Congress of the United States, recognizing the valuable
work in the cause of practical education which such colleges could
achieve for the country passed the "Land Grant Act." This Act
granted each State and Territory which should claim its benefit
a proportionate amount of unclaimed Western lands, in place of
scrip, the proceeds from the sale of which should apply under

certain conditions to the "endowment, support and maintenance of at
least one college where the leading object shall be, without excluding
other scientific and clt^sical 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 profes-
sions of life." This grant having been formally accepted by the
General Assembly of Maryland, and the Maryland Agricultural
College being named as the beneficiary of the grant, the College
thus became, in part, at least, a State institution. In the Fall of
1914, the College became, wholly, a State institution.

During recent years the College has made a steady growth.
This fact is evidenced by the increased number of students availing
themselves of its facilities ; by the erection of many new buildings —
the library and gymnasium building, the chemical laboratory, Mor-
rill Hall, the sanitarium, the engineering building, and Calvert
Hall; as well as by the establishment of the Departments of
Farmers' Institutes and Extension Work, and the State Departments
of Chemistry (Fertilizer, Feed and Agricultural Lime Control),
Horticulture, Entomology and Vegetable Pathology. As a conse-
quence of its development under such favorable auspices the institu-
tion has become the most important factor in the agricultural and
industrial development of the State.

The State Bureau of Forestry co-operates with the College, the
Director being, by the terms of his appointment, Lecturer on For-
estry at the Agricultural College,

LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION

The Maryland Agricultural College is located in Prince George's
county, Maryland, on the line of the Washington Branch of the
B. & O. R. R., eight miles from Washington, and thirty-two miles
from Baltimore. At least nine trains a day from each city stop at
College Station, thus making the place easily accessible from all
parts of the State. Telephone connection is made with the Chesa-
peake and Potomac lines. *

The College grounds front on the Baltimore and Washington
Boulevard. The suburban town of Hyattsville is two miles to the

south, and Laurel, the largest town in the county, is ten miles
to the north on the same road. Access to these towns and to
Washington may be had by steam and electric railway. The site
of the College is particularly beautiful. The buildings occupy the
crest of a commanding hill, which is covered with forest trees,
and overlooks the entire surrounding country. In front, extend-
ing to the Boulevard, is a broad, rolling campus, the drill ground
and athletic field of the students. In the rear are the farm build-
ings and barn. A quarter of a mile to the northeast are the
buildings of the Experiment Station. The College farm contains
about three hundred acres, and is devoted to fields, gardens, orch-
ards, vineyard, poultry yards, etc., used for experimental purposes
and demonstration work in agriculture and horticulture.

The general appearance of the College grounds is exceedingly
attractive. They are tastefully laid off in lawns and terraces which
are ornamented with shrubbery and flower beds. The view from
the grove and campus cannot be surpassed.

The location of the College is healthful; the sanitary conditions
are excellent. No better proof of this can be given than that there
has been practically no serious case of illness among the students
for many years.

COLLEGE BUILDINGS.

The original College building completed in 1859, and the ad-
ministration building completed in 1904, and connected with the
former by a covered bridge, were completely destroyed by fire
on the night of November 29, 1912. A temporary assembly hall,
kitchen and dining hall have been erected and are now in
use. Living rooms for a part of the students are available in
Calvert Hall, the dormitory constructed in 1914, and in several
houses on the College campus.

In 1894 the building used as the library was erected. It is well-
lighted and commodious.

The Departments of Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineer-
ing and the Departments of Physics and of Mathematics are located
in the two-story brick building erected in 1896, the brick annex,
erected in 1904, and the brick addition constructed in 1909. This
latter, which consists of a main building four stories in height and

a wing three stories in height, is so arranged as to form with the
buildings previously erected a concrete whole. In this group of
buildings are found laboratories of various kinds, wood and machine
shops, a forge room and foundry, drawing rooms, blue print rooms,
instrument rooms, lecture rooms, offices, a library room, lavatories,
lockers, etc. The equipment is modern in every respect and the
facilities for work in the above named departments have been
greatly increased.

The chemical building was completed in 1897, and is now thor-
oughly equipped. It contains several lecture rooms afnd labora-
tories for practical work and the analysis of fertilizers, feeding
materials for domestic animals, and agricultural lime. This work
is assigned by Acts of the General Assembly to the Professor of
Chemistry at this College, who is thereby constituted State Chemist.

Morrill Hall, erected in 1898, provides laboratories, lecture and
class rooms, a dark room and storage rooms for the Agricultural
and Biological Departments. The extensive insect collections of
past and present State Entomologists, and the State Herbarium are
housed in this building. The Departments of Entomology and
Botany have a small greenhouse attached to Morrill Hall for use
as an insectary and propagating house. In addition, several class
rooms and offices are used by the Departments of Economics,
English, Agricultural Education and Languages.

The Horticultural Building completed this year provides class
rooms, propagating shed and offices, opening into a range of nine
greenhouses and a conservatory abutting on the south wall of the
building. The main building is 200 feet long, and the adjoining
greenhouses 50 feet by 20 feet each. This equipment furnishes
ample accommodations for laboratory work in horticulture and
is comparable to the best in the country.

The College Sanitarium, completed in 1901, is being used, tem-
porarily, as the Administration Building.

GENERAL AIM AND PURPOSE.

The Agricultural College is the State school of science and
technology. While seeking, first of all, to perform the functions
of an agricultural college, its sphere of work has been widened to-

embrace all the sciences akin to agriculture, and all the arts related
to mechanical training. To these special and prominent lines of
work have been added such branches of study as are necessary for
a liberal education, for the development of the intelligent citizen
and for general culture. The purpose of this college is to give
young men anxious to prepare themselves for the active duties of
life such training in the lecture room, laboratory and field as will
enable them to take their places in the industrial world well pre-
pared for the fierce competition of the day.

Recognizing that such an education, in order to be of practical
advantage to many, must be offered at a cost within the means of
all, the expenses for the year to the student have been reduced to
the point where his college dues are not in excess of his ordinary
daily expenses. It is to be remembered that the College is a State
institution, in part supported by the State, in part by the Federal
Government through its several endowment Acts, and that it is in
no sense a money-making institution, but simply a medium of dis-
bursement by the Government to those upon whom the safety,
progress and prosperity of the State so largely depend.

While the College provides, as will hereafter be explained, sev-
eral distinct courses of instruction, looking to the special training
of the student in agriculture, engineering and science, the fact {■^
clearly kept in view that a sound foundation must be laid for each
and every course. Successful specialization is only practicable after
the student has prepared for it by a thorough training in the essen-
tials. All education must be narrow and one-sided which does not
provide for the general culture of the student, and which does not
look first to the natural and normal development of the individual.
That the aim of the College is to train the student in a specialty
without sacrificing his development in general culture is shown in
the description of the general working plan given in the next para-
graph.

It begins with the student in his first, or Freshman, year with
a systematic and carefully adjusted scheme of work, differing but
little in the several courses, and looking to his general development
in mental strength, range of information and power of expression
and thought. At the beginning of his second, or Sophomore, year
the differentiation may be said to begin along those lines for which

he shows most natural aptitude. This gradual specialization con-
tinues during his third, or Junior, year, until in his last, or Senior,
year, his work consists chiefly of a few closely correlated topics, in
which he is thus able thoroughly to prepare himself. With the
present equipment of the laboratories and work-shops a student is
able to become so proficient in his chosen line of work that wher
he leaves the College a successful career is open to him.

The Agricultural College is, logically, the crowning point of
the public school system of Maryland. Its aim in particular is to
provide a higher education for the graduates of the county schools.
To this end its curriculum is adjusted to meet the preparation of
such students. It is this class of young men that the College is
specially desirous of reaching. Experience has shown that our
most satisfactory students come as graduates from the county
schools, and no efforts will be spared to make the transition from
the high school to the College a possible one for all those actuated
by an earnest desire to complete their education.

AGRONOMY.

professor TALIAFERRO.
MR. BRUCE.

The Department of Agronomy takes up the agricultural work
pertaining to the field and its crops. A number of courses are
offered. These treat of farm crops, their classification, soil and
climatic adaptations, culture and improvement; soils, their phys-
ical and chemical properties, methods of treatment for maintenance
and increase of productiveness; soil amendments, as manures, fer-
tilizers, cover crops and lime; farm drainage; farm machinery;
and farm management.

The College farm consists of two hundred and sixty-five acres
of land and is operated by the Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station together with an adjoining leased farm.

Students of the College are kept in close touch with the gen-
eral and experimental work on these farms which offer an unusual
variety of soils and crops for observation and study.

Many of the students, who wish to do so, find work at fair
wages on the farm and are thereby enabled to pay a part of their
expenses as well as to gain valuable experience.

COURSES OFFERED,

20. General Agronomy. The object of this course is to teach
the approved methods of modern farm practice in regard to soils
and crop production and from them by means of laboratory and
field exercises, to deduce logically the scientific facts on which
such practice rests. It also prepares the student for the more
detailed study of soils and crops provided in the later courses.

Freshman Year — Second Term, i theoretical period per week;
Third Term, i theoretical and 2 practical periods per week.

21. Soils. The study of the physical and chemical conditions of
the soils in their relation to profitable agriculture. The soil is the
basis of all agriculture, and a knowledge of its properties and func-
tions cannot be too highly emphasized. The study of this important
subject is conducted by means of lectures, text-books, laboratory
and field work. No State in the Union possesses a greater variety
of soils than Maryland, and great attention is paid to the study of
soil types in their relation to profitable agriculture.

A well-equipped soils laboratory and the wide variety of soils
found on the College farm offer exceptional advantages in the theo-
retical and practical study of this important subject.

The text-book used is "Soils," by Lyon and Fippin.

Sophomore and Senior Year — First and Second Term, 2 theo-
retical and 4 practical periods per week.

First Year — iThird Term, 3 theoretical and 6 practical periods
per week.

22. Fertilizers. Of vital interest to the eastern and southern
farmer of the present day is the fertiUzing question. Between it
and the profit and loss account is a very close connection, and fre-
quently a lack of knowledge of the subject entails upon the farmer
both the loss of money paid and of the possible increase of the crop.
In this course the subject is developed logically from the needs of
the plant and the efficiency of the soil to the selecting of the proper
plant foods for each crop under varying conditions of soil and
climate. Special attention is given to the home-mixing of fertilizers.

Sophomore and Second Year — Second Term, 2 theoretical and 4
practical periods per week.

23. Farm Crops. A more detailed study of the common farm
crops is taken up in this course than in any previous course. In-
struction is given principally by lectures and practical work on the
farm and in the laboratory.

Sophomore and First Year — Third Term, 2 theoretical and 4
practical periods per week.

24. Crop Production. This course is intended only for those
students who are specializing in agronomy. It consists of field and
laboratory work in the study of the handling of fall-sown and fall-
harvested crops. Great attention is given in this course to a care-
ful note-taking and study of the results obtained in breeding work
in corn and other fall maturing crops on the Experiment Station
farm.

Junior Year — First Term, 2 theoretical and 4 practical periods
per week.

Second Year — First Term, 3 theoretical and 4 practical periods
per week; Third Term, 2 theoretical and 2 practical periods per
week.

25. Farm Machinery. Lectures and practical work.

Senior and First Year — First Term, 2 theoretical and 4 practical
periods per week.

26. Advanced Work in Crop Production and Soils. In this
course a detailed study is made of the methods of Crop Production.
The work in Soils is designed to familiarize the student with the
details of soil management. It includes a study of the effects
of the most approved systems of tillage and crop rotations upon

the physical and chemical composition of the soil and its moisture
content. The laboratory work consists of special studies on the
type soils of Maryland, soils from the Experiment Station fields,
which have been subjected to various systems of soil management,
and samples of soils from the student's home farm.

Senior Year— First Term, 2 theoretical and 2 practical periods
per week; Third Term, 3 theoretical and 4 practical periods per
week.

27. Grain Judging. This course consists of a critical compara-
tive study of the cereals and other farm seeds from the standpoint
of market grading and fitness for seed purposes. It is designed so
to familiarize the student with the subject that he may not only
handle his own crops to the best advantage, but may also be quali-
fied to act as a judge at county fairs, grain shows, etc. Instruction
is given by means of laboratory practice and lectures.

Senior Year — Second Term, 4 practical periods per week.
Second Year — Second Term, 2 theoretical and 4 practical periods
per week.

of the Department.

Senior Year — First Term, i theoretical and 4 practical periods
per week ; Second Term, 4 practical periods per week ; Third Term,
2 theoretical and 4 practical periods per week.

ANIMAL HUSBANDRY.

PROFESSOR RUFFNER.

The Department of Animal Husbandry stands for all lines of work
which pertain to the judging, selecting, breeding, feeding, devel-
opment, care and management of the various breeds and classes of
domesticated animals. Good herds of stock are being established at

the Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station which are of use
to the student in his studies. In addition to the supply of stock
on the farm the proximity of the College to Washington and Balti-
more makes it possible for the student to get excellent material for
study. The Heurich dairy farm, close by, furnishes an excellent
example in dairy farming. It is quite evident that there is but one
way to make a young man a proficient judge of live stock, and that
is by training the eye. In all of the lecture and laboratory work
outlined in the courses the work is demonstrated with living speci-
mens.

New dairy barns are erected at the Experiment Station. These
are models of sanitation. A well lighted and heated pavilion for
judging live stock is a recent addition to the equipment.

Junior and Senior Students taking this course are sent to farms
throughout the State of Maryland, and the eastern section of Vir-
ginia to supervise advanced registry tests for the dairy associa-
tions. These trips give the students the advantage of observing
the most up-to-date dairy farms in the country, in addition to
practical experience.

For the past four years a judging team, consisting of three
students, has been sent to Chicago to participate in the Student's
Contest in Judging Dairy Cattle. Students in any of the agri-
cultural courses are eligible to compete for a place on this team.
The selection of students for the team is based upon ability and
efficiency in this line of work,

A growing library of herd-books is available to the student of
pedigrees. These books give a fund of information concerning
heredity, fecundity and other breed characteristics.

COURSES OFFERED.

40. Breeds and Scoring. This course is devoted to the detailed
study of the breeds of live stock. The practical work commences
with a study of the animal form by the use of the score-card.
Special attention is given to the relation of form to function.
First, the productive types are firmly fixed in the student's mind;
then he takes up more particularly breed characteristics.

Text-books: "Types and Breeds of Farm Animals," by Plumb
and "Judging Live Stock," by Craig.

Freshman and First Year — First Term, i theoretical and 4
practical periods per week.

Junior Year — First Term, 2 theoretical and 4 practical periods

41. Live Stock Management. Lectures are given on the hous-
ing, feeding, care and management of dairy cattle, hogs and horses ;
the housing, feeding, care and management of beef cattle and
sheep. The practical work consists of application of the principles
developed in the lectures, and takes up the drawing of barn plans
and other stable conveniences.

Sophomore Year — First Term, 2 theoretical and 4 practical
periods per week.

42. Principles of Breeding. This course takes up the prin-
ciples of breeding, including selection, heredity, atavism, variation,

BOTANY AND VEGETABLE PATHOLOGY.

PROFESSOR NORTON.
ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR ROSE.

The courses in botany are intended to give such knowledge of
the vegetable kingdom as is a proper element in general culture; to
train the student mind in observation, comparison, generalization
and other mental processes essential to true scientific methods in
any work; and to furnish a basis for practical studies directly con-
nected with agriculture, since plants are the subjects dealt with in
the field and garden. In addition to the courses in pure botany,
others of special economic trend are given. These are specially
for students in the Agricultural and Horticultural Courses, and
take up such botanical studies of cultivated plants, plant diseases,
etc., as may be useful in practical life to the professional farmer or
gardener.

The equipment and means for illustration and demonstration
consist of a reference library containing the principal botanical
works needed by students, charts and maps, compound and dissect-
ing microscopes, preserved specimens for illustration and a repre-
sentative collection of Maryland plants; microtome and other in-
struments together with reagents and apparatus for histological
work and physiological experiments; and a culture room, steriliz-
ers, incubators and other facilities for the study of plant diseases.

Advanced students have an opportunity to observe the work be-
ing done in the laboratory of Vegetable Pathology and greenhouse
of the State Horticultural Department and of the Experiment Sta-
tion, and, if competent, to assist in the same. Special attention is
given to students who wish practice in the treatment of plant dis-
eases, as it is the desire of the Department to encourage young
men to engage in this work as a business.

COURSES OFFERED.

60. Seeds and Weeds. By examination and careful study the
student becomes familiar with the ordinary field and garden seeds,
and with the weed seeds which are commonly found as adulterants.
He is thus enabled to identify these at sight. A study of the com-
mon weeds is also pursued.

First Year — First Term, 4 practical periods per week.

61. General Principles. This is an elementary course in the
general principles of anatomy, morphology and physiology of the
higher plants. The structure and types of seed, root, stem, leaves,
flowers and fruit are studied in the laboratory, with a brief con-
sideration of the functions of the different plant organs, a more
complete course in plant physiology (64) being given later.

There is also field work, with the manual on the native flora, de-
signed to give a knowledge of the common Maryland plants and
their position in the classification of the vegetable kingdom. The
ecology of the plants examined in the field is also considered, and
includes their relation to soils, water supply, light and other factors
in their environment, cross pollination, dissemination of seeds,
plant societies, etc. Each student makes a collection of plants from
some part of the State.

Bergen and Caldwell's "Practical Botany" is the principal text-
book used.

CHEMISTRY AND BACTERIOLOGY.

PROFESSOR MCDONNELL.
PROFESSOR BROUGHTON.

MR. DENNIS.

MR. WHITE.

This Department is charged with two distinct classes of work,
(i) The State fertilizer, feed and lime inspection, and (2) the in-
struction of students. The State work necessitates the publication
of the "Quarterly" bulletin, which is usually made up of the results
of the analysis of fertilizers, feeding stuffs, or agricultural lime, and
is sent free of charge to all Maryland farmers who apply. Students
do no part of the State work, the assistants being college gradu-
ates. However, this work serves as a valuable object lesson to the
advanced students.

The Chemical Laboratory Building is devoted entirely to chem-
istry. Not including basement, it is two stories high. On the first
floor are the laboratories for the State fertilizer, feed and lime
control work, office, lecture room and balance room. On the sec-
ond floor are three laboratories for the use of students ; a students'
balance room with first-class chemical and assay balances, polari-
scope, refractometers, spectroscopes, etc., and a supply room. The
assay furnaces are in the basement. Each student is provided with
a working desk, lockers, reagents and apparatus. Additional
apparatus and materials are provided from the supply room, as
needed.

The Department is provided with a small, but well-selected,
library of standard reference books on chemistry, to which addi-
tions are made from time to time.

Instruction in chemistry is begun in the Second Term of the
Freshman Year, three to four periods per week being devoted to
lectures and recitations, and two to four periods to practical work
in the laboratory by the student, under the supervision of the

instructor. In this way the student comes in direct contact with the
substances studied, having at hand ample faciHties for learning
their properties. Special attention is given to the elements and com-
pounds of practical and economic importance, such as the air, water
and soil, the elements entering into the composition of plants and
animals, the useful metals, etc. This course is intended to give the
student that practical and theoretical knowledge of elementary chem-
istry which is essential in the education of every man, no matter
what his vocation. It also serves as a foundation for advanced
work in chemistry, if such a course is chosen.

Advanced work in chemistry begins with the Sophomore Year,
Second Term, if the Course in Chemistry is selected, and the larger
part of the student's time is devoted to some branch of theoretical
or practical chemistry during the rest of his course, as outlined
elsewhere.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND PHYSICS.

PROFESSOR CREESE.
MR. KAH.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING.

The work of the Electrical Engineering Course is so arranged as
to give the student a thorough understanding of the fundamental
principles of the various branches of electrical engineering, and at
the same time to teach him to apply these principles to the prac-
tical problems with which the engineer has to deal. This purpose
is carried out by means of lectures and recitations in the class-room,
supplemented by practical work in the laboratories and drawing
room.

Equipment. The Electrical Engineering Laboratories are lo-
cated in the east wing of the new engineering building. The rooms
on the first floor are used for lectures, recitations and experimental
demonstrations by the instructor; a room on the second floor is
equipped with apparatus for experimental work in telephone en-
gineering; and the basement contains the dynamo room and the
electrical engineering testing room.

The electrical engineering testing room is fitted up with such ap-
pliances as are used to the best advantage in engineering practice.
Special effort has been made to purchase only the best instruments,
as the use of poorer grades influences the student unfavorably.
With poor instruments he cannot be taught to do satisfactory work
and he becomes careless in the handling of them.

Among other things the following apparatus has been purchased
for the testing laboratory:

A Leeds and Northrup potentiometer and Weston standard volt-
meter and ammeter for calibrating the various measuring instru-
ments used in the laboratory. A Sharp-Millar portable photometer
and a Queen & Co. standard photometer for measuring the candle-
power of lamps and for determination of illumination intensities.
A large number of portable ammeters, voltmeters, and indicating
wattmeters for direct and alternating current measurements ; stand-
ard curve drawing voltmeter and ammeter; electrostatic volt-
meter; frequency meters; silver and copper voltameters; Siemen's
type electrodynamometer ; watthourmeters, both direct and alter-
nating current. A Leeds and Northrup standard portable testing
set; heating devices; condensers; tachometers; multiple circuit am-
meter and voltmeter switches. D'Arsonval galvanometers ; standard
resistance boxes and bridges, including a very accurate decade
resistance box and a decade resistance and Wheatstone bridge;
double and single contact keys, condenser keys, etc.

The lamps used for experimental purposes include direct and
alternating current multiple carbon arc, metallic arc, mercury vapor
and nernst lamps.

A Curtis steam turbine, direct connected to a 35-kilowatt com-
pound generator, has been installed for testing purposes. This
may be used in connection with the College lighting plant when
needed, and will be used for light and power service in the engi-
neering building.

The laboratory is so wired that connection may be made readily
with any part of the College lighting plant, with the turbo-gener-
ator or with any of the apparatus in the dynamo room.

The apparatus in the dynamo room includes the following: A
lo-kilowatt rotary converter of the latest type with speed limit
and end play devices. A 5 horse-power variable speed commutating
pole motor. A 7.5 kilowatt, 60 cycle, 220 volt alternator designed to
operate either as a polyphase generator, synchronous motor, fre-
quency changer, constant speed induction motor, or variable speed in-
duction motor ; the following parts are supplied with the set to make
possible its operation in any of the above named ways ; — a station-
ary armature for use either as an alternating current generator or
as an induction motor field ; a revolving field ; a squirrel cage indue-

tion motor rotor with starting compensator having self-contained
switches; an induction motor rotor with internal starting resist-
ance; and an induction motor rotor with 3 phase collector rings,
external resistance, and controller. A 2 kilowatt booster set, con-
sisting of a series motor and shunt generator with armatures
mounted on the same shaft. A 5 horse-power compound direct cur-
rent motor and a 1.5 horse-power shunt motor fully enclosed. A 7.5
kilowatt, 120 volt, 3 phase self-excited generator direct connected
to a 115 volt compound direct current motor. A motor-generator
set consisting of a 3.6 horse-power shunt motor direct connected
to a 2 kilowatt compound generator. A 3 horse-power, 3 phase
induction motor. A 0.5 kilowatt shunt generator belt connected
to a 0.5 horse-power variable speed shunt motor. A 0.5 kilowatt
series generator and a 0.25 horse-power, 60 cycle, single phase, in-
duction motor. Two 2 kilowatt transformers to transform power
from 1 10 or 220 volts to 1 100 or 2200 volts. Various types of start-
ing rheostats with automatic overload and no voltage release; field
rheostats.

The main switchboards, consisting of two blue Vermont marble
panels on pipe supports, are used to mount the necessary circuit
breaker, rheostats, switches, etc., to control the generators and mo-
tors as well as the various circuits in the dynamo room and testing
laboratory. Wire and water rheostats are arranged for load and
regulation. Portable lamp-boards are so arranged that they may
receive, at the proper voltage, from 0.04 to 100 amperes current.
Portable ammeter, voltmeter and wattmeter switchboards have
been constructed for use in machine tests. In addition to the spe-
cial electrical engineering equipment, the College lighting plant
will be used for illustrative and experimental purposes. This plant
contains, together with other apparatus useful in teaching elec-
trical engineering, two Bullock generators of 40 kilowatts total
capacity, and a switchboard equipped with a number of Weston
ammeters, voltmeters and circuit breakers, and various types of
rheostats.

An 8-inch Waltham bench lathe, with all the necessary attach-
ments, has been installed in the dynamo room for the use of stu-
dents in practical thesis work, and for making small articles, such
as binding posts, connectors, etc., for use in the laboratories.

The telephone laboratory is equipped with two demonstration
sets which were made by the Western Electric Co.

The magneto set consists of an oak panel upon which is mounted
the following apparatus: Two line circuits with combined jacks
and signals; double wound supervisory drops; complete cord cir-
cuits including ringing and listening keys, operator's telephone
set, magneto generator, etc. On one line circuit is connected a wall
type subscriber's set, and on the other, a desk set.

The common battery set consists of an oak panel carrying the
following equipment: Two line circuits with lamp signals; com-
plete cord circuits, including ringing and listening keys, opera-
tor's telephone set, magneto generator, split repeating coils, con-
densers, retardation coil, supervisory lamp, etc. On one of the line
circuits is connected a wall type subscriber's set, and on the other
a desk set.

Both panels have all the wiring exposed to enable the student to
make a complete study of these two principal types of telephone
exchanges.

ENGLISH AND PUBLIC SPEAKING.

PROFESSOR RICHARDSON.
MR. BYRD.
MR. SCHULZ.

This Department, as its name implies, covers the work of two
closely allied branches.

The course in English, of a necessity, lies at the base of all other
courses of instruction. Clear and comprehensive knowledge of his
mother tongue is absolutely necessary to the student in pursuing
any line of college work. Nor is this all; for aside from the prac-
tical value of the English instruction as an aid to other branches
of study, and as a preparation for business and profession, it is to

his training in this Department, in connection with his study of
history, the classics and modern languages, that the student must
look for the acquiring of the general culture which has always beeti
the distinguishing mark of the liberally educated man. The Eng-
lish work, which is common to all courses, consists of the study of
the structure of the English language, English and American lit-
erature, theoretical and practical rhetoric, critical reading and
analysis, and constant exercise in expression, composition and theme
writing.

The work in public speaking is begun with easy lessons in elocu-
tion, and this is continued until the student has acquired a mastery
of vocal expression, and a pleasing and forcible delivery. The
student is then required to deliver both extempore and prepared
speeches and debates, covering a wide range of subjects, in this
way not only securing practice in delivery, but also developing the
power of logical thought.

ENTOMOLOGY AND ZOOLOGY.

professor symons.
professor cory.

Instruction is given in this Department with a view first, to giv-
ing the student the general knowledge of invertebrate and verte-
brate zoology, which is necessary as a foundation science for an

agricultural education; second, to fit the student in elementary and
advanced entomology, both economic and systematic, so that he
may pursue this specialty after graduation. A course in economic
entomology and zoology is also given to provide those students who
are specializing in any of the allied agricultural sciences, with
the information which is essential to their ideal development.

Students who intend to enter the medical profession or work in
public health and sanitation will find in the Biological Course the
work which will give them the best possible preparation for those
professions.

Students wishing to take advanced work in invertebrate zoology
are advised to select some subject in entomology. As the State and
Experiment Station entomological work is conducted through this
Department, there are special advantages for students in applied
entomology.

The reference library is unusually complete, containing in addi-
tion to the standard works, a majority of the principal entomolo-
gical and zoological publications. The laboratory is supplied with
a large collection of insects for the use of students, and is well
equipped with microscopes and other apparatus necessary for prac-
tical work in entomology and zoology.

The glass and screen insectaries of the Stcte Horticultural De-
partment and the Maryland Experiment Station are joined to the
laboratory, and afford facilities for special investigation to a lim-
ited number of advanced students. In addition, a greenhouse 50 x 20
in the new range of houses has been set aside for entomological
work.

A laboratory of the Bureau of Entomology has been established
at the Experiment Station. The Parasitologist in charge is avail-
able for consultation by students specializing in parasitic Hymen-
optera.

HORTICULTURE.

PROFESSOR SYMONS.

PROFESSOR BECKENSTRATER.

DR. BESLEY.

associate PROFESSOR ANSPON.

ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR STODDARD.

Recognizing the great importance of every phase of this subject
in the State, the Division of Horticulture is offering instruction to

students desiring to specialize in either Pomology, Vegetable Cul-
ture or Landscape Gardening and Floriculture. The courses in this
subject have been revised, providing for general courses in all
phases of Horticulture during the Freshman and Sophomore years
and permitting them to specialize in any of the above subjects in
the Junior and Senior years.

The arrangement of the courses is, of necessity, subject to such
adjustment as will advance the best interests of the students. The
object in each course will be to give practical and theoretical train-
ing in fruit growing, truck farming and commercial landscape gar-
dening and floriculture. Under the present arrangement the spec-
ialists in each subject will have greater opportunity to keep familiar
with the progress of their work through the practical demonstra-
tion and experimental work in the State.

The students will be required to do practical work throughout
the course, and in addition, they must have spent at least two sum-
mers or the equivalent, during the four years' course, in an ap-
proved com.mercial establishment dealing with the subject in which
they are specializing. The equipment of each Department is being
steadily increased and the orchards, gardens and greenhouses of
College and Experiment Station afford unlimited opportunities for
practical observation. In addition, the students of each course will
be expected to take trips to selected commercial orchards, truck
farms, greenhouses and markets.

The Division of Horticulture offers two regular courses: (a) a
four-year course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science; (b)
a two-year course for proficiency in which a certificate is awarded.

The work given in the two-year course will also be more effi-
cient, as for the most part the courses will be given separately from
those of the regular four-year students. These students will also
have an opportunity to specialize in any phase of horticulture in
which they are interested during their second year.

LANGUAGES.

PROFESSOR SPENCE.
MR. SCHULZ.

The Department of Languages embraces the study of three
branches: Latin, German and French. All students are required
to take the courses in German or French. Students may elect to
take Latin in the Freshman Year in place of History, provided that
they have completed the work outlined for the Sub-Freshman Qass
or its equivalent.

The course of study in Latin is given with two ends in view —
first, to train the mind into accurate and close methods of reason-
ing; second, to give the student a more thorough and comprehen-
sive knowledge of his own language than he could otherwise ac-
quire. Special attention is paid to Latin forms and terminations
and to the derivation of English words from Latin roots.

So large a proportion of modern scientific literature is in Ger-
man and French that a reading knowledge of these languages has
become almost essential to the student pursuing advanced courses
in the various spheres of scientific research. Instruction in thesi

branches is given, therefore, to enable the student to translate in-
telligently the works of French and German masters in the domain
of science, for, frequently there are no English versions of theii
works. As the student becomes more familiar with foreign scien-
tific terms and construction, he is required to translate treatises
bearing upon the special line of work which he may be pursuing.

MATHEMATICS.

professor HARRISON.
MR. SPRINGER.

Mathematics is the basis upon which scientific information rests.
A knowledge of the study is necessary, as much from the utilitarian
point of view as from the mental training its acquisition gives. Its
importance as a factor in our College course takes its rise from the
former consideration. All instruction in this work is with a view
to the equipping of students for the more practical work soon to
follow.

The class work in mathematics in the several courses consists of
arithmetic, accounting, algebra, geometry (plane and solid), trig-
onometry, analytic geometry, differential and integral calculus, and
their application to mechanics, engineering, physics and surveying.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING.

PROFESSOR GWINNER.

ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR CRISP.

MR. WARTHEN.

This Department offers a Course in Mechanical Engineering
leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engi-
neering. The list of all subjects required to be completed to obtain
this degree is given on page 103. It prepares young men to design
and construct machinery, to superintend engineering establish-
ments, to become superintendents of construction and to teach
mechanical engineering and manual training. For degree of
Mechanical Engineer see page 122.

The record of its graduates shows that the course is equipping
such for immediate usefulness in the technical field-
Instruction is given by means of lectures and recitations, ac-
companied by a large amount of practice in the drafting rooms,
shops and experimental laboratory.

The program of the Department is arranged to embody the two-
fold belief that a thorough training is best secured by a study of
the practical application of the principles involved, as well as of the
principles.

Equipment. The Mechanical Engineering Laboratories are sit-
uated in the engineering building, which contains the wood-work-

ing and machine shops, drafting and lecture rooms, foundry and
blacksmith shops as well as the College power plant.

The wood-working shop contains accommodations for bench work
and wood turning. The power machinery in this shop is a band
and universal circular saw, five i2-inch turning lathes, one i6-inch
by lo-foot pattern maker's lathe, a grindstone, wood trimmer, 26-
inch wood planer and universal tool grinder.

In the forge shops are sixteen power forges, two hand forges
and a pressure fan and exhauster for keeping the shop free of
smoke. There is a full assortment of smith's tools for each forge

The foundry is equipped with an iron cupola, which melts 1,20c
pounds of iron per hour, a brass furnace, one core-oven and the
necessary flasks and tools.

The machine shop equipment consists of one loinch speed lathe
one 22-inch engine-lathe with compound rest, one 12-inch combined
foot and power lathe, two 14-inch engine-lathes, one 24-inch drill
press, one No. 4 emery tool grinder, one No. i^^ universal milling
machine, and an assortment of vises, taps, dies, pipe-tools and meas-
uring instruments.

The machinery of the pattern and machine shops is driven by s
9 by 14-inch automatic cut off, high speed engine, built by members
of the Junior and Senior Mechanical Engineering Classes, aftei
the standard design of the Atlas engine. An 8 by 12-inch engine
drives the machinery of the blacksmith shop and foundry- It was
presented to the College by the City of Baltimore, and secured
through the efforts of Rear-Admiral John D. Ford, United States
Navy, retired.

The experimental laboratory contains: A hundred thousand
pound Riehle combined hand and power testing machine for making
tensile, compression, shearing and transverse tests on various kind.'
of materials, turbo-generator set, consisting of a Curtis steam tur-
bine and thirty-five K. W. General Electric compound wound gen-
erator for making steam and electric efficiency tests. This set is
connected with the general lighting system of the College so that
any time it may be tested to its capacity. It may also be used foi
lighting purposes if necessary. A cross compound condensing Cor-
liss engine of fifty horse-power, equipped with brake, indicators,

relief valves, reducing motion, steam and vacuum gauges, and speed
indicator, gives ample opportunity for steam consumption and
brake tests. This is connected with the shops, so that any time it
may be switched on and drive them. The College power plant with
its vacuum heating system, three one-hundred horse-power return
tubular boilers, and two electric generating units offer unexcelled
opportunities for experimental work.

The three drafting rooms are well equipped for practical work.
Two of these are used by the Junior and Senior Classes, each stu-
dent being provided with a separate desk. The third room is used
jointly by the Freshman and Sophomore students and contains
eleven drawing tables, accommodating about sixty students.

Engineering students are to provide themselves with approved
drawing outfit, materials and book; the cost of which during the
Freshman Year amounts to about $15.00. The cost to other stu-
dents taking mechanical drawing is about $5.00. The College does
not furnish these, but they are purchased by the student and are
his property.

The combined blue print and dark room with its commodious
printing frames affords splendid opportunities for sun printing,
which is so useful to engineering students-

Tours of Inspection. The proximity of the College to Balti-
more, Washington and Philadelphia, with their great industrial en-
terprises, offers unexcelled opportunities to engineering students
to acquaint themselves practically with what is being done in mod-
ern engineering construction. Upon trips of inspection an instruc-
tor accompanies the class and explains the different processes,
plants and machines.

MILITARY SCIENCE.

major dapray.

The Congress of the United States, subject to certain conditions,
now appropriates annually a generous sum for each Agricultural
College of the United States.

One of the conditions imposed by this, grant is that the students
shall receive a course of training in Military Tactics.

The instructor for this course is supplied by the War Depart-
ment and is an officer of the Regular Army, detailed from his Regi-
ment or Corps for this duty.

The value of such military training may be considered from two
viewpoints : First, that of the United States Government ; and, sec-
ond, that of the individual student.

To consider the first: The Government, depending as it does

upon the citizen soldier for its Volunteer Army in times of national

peril, realizes that an army, recruited from raw material as regards

both officers and men, would be a most hopeless proposition in these
days of quick action. If the officers were trained men they would

be of inestimabfe value in shaping these collections of citizens into

efficient armies.

Government aided schools are therefore required to give such a
course in Military Tactics as will create in this country a body of
men, whose knowledge of the Military Art is sufficient to enable
them to officer companies of infantry when called upon by the Gov-
ernment in the defense of the country.

From the viewpoint of the student, the military training makes
for character — "it systematically develops the body and it edu-
cates the mind along a consistent line for the double purpose of
clear thinking and effective practical work."

"It exercises the character, it disciplines the mind, it inculcates
habits of subordination to lawful authority, of strict personal ac-
countability for word and act, of truth telling, of integrity and
fidelity to trust, of simplicity of life and of courage."

In addition, a cadet has during his term as such, most excellent
opportunities to perfect himself in the great art of commanding
others.

This problem is for every cadet to solve some time during his
cadet career. He finds that he must know his men, and that he
must know how to appeal to those under him, if he wishes to get
results without antagonizing them.

How often capable men fail, simply because they have not the
knack of exercising authority so as to obtain the most satisfactory
results.

Often do graduates, even those to whom the military training
was distasteful, express their appreciation of the value that this
training which they received at College, is to them in their several
walks of life.

INSPECTION.

The War Department designates an officer of the General Staff
of the Regular Army to make an annual inspection of the Military
Department of each of the institutions of learning in the United
States at which an officer is regularly detailed. There are about one
hundred such institutions. This inspector rates these schools accord-
ing to their status and military efficiency.

ORGANIZATION.

The Corps of Cadets is organized as a battalion of three com-
panies, staff and band, the drill and administration of which con-
form as far as possible to that of the Regular Army.

All students, other than those physically disabled, and those spe-
cially excused by the President of the College, are required to drill,
and upon entering are enrolled in one of the companies of the bat-
talion.

INSTRUCTION. ^

The instruction in the Military Department is both practical and
theoretical. The practical instruction includes the School of the
Soldier, Squad, Company and Battalion in Close and Extended
Order, Ceremonies of Guard-Mounting, Review and Inspection,
Dress Parade, Escort to the Color, Advance and Rear Guard work,
Patrolling and Scouting, Marches, Target Practice, Visual Signal-
ling, Military Engineering and Topography.

The theoretical instruction is given to all members of the Senior
Class and consists of instruction in Infantry Drill Regulations,
Manual of Guard Duty, Firing Regulations for Small Arms, Field
Service Regulations, First Aid to the Injured, etc., supplemented
by lectures on tactical subjects, Army Regulations, Company Books
and Papers, Messing, Cooking, Tactics, Camp Sanitation and Mili-
tary Law. ■ .

EQUIPMENT.

The battalion of cadets is equipped with the United States mag-
azine rifle, caliber 30, known as the Krag-Jorgensen, with complete
equipment of side arms, cartridge box, etc. The cadet officers and
non-commissioned staff officers are equipped with the regulation
West Point cadet sword and sash.

The Government also has supplied the battalion with the new
regulation sub-calibre target rifle for gallery practice, and has been
very liberal in the allowance of ammunition for gallery practice,
of blank cartridges for field exercises, and of ball cartridges for
outdoor range practice.

Students are held strictly accountable for all arms and equip-
ment issued to them.

PROMOTIONS.

The officers and non-commissioned officers of the corps are se-
lected with reference primarily to their fitness for the duties they
will be required to perform. Their general deportment and profi-
ciency in academic work are also given weight in making such
selection.

Commissioned officers are, as a rule, selected from the Senior
Class, sergeants from the Junior Qass, and corporals from the
Sophomore Class.

Cadet officers are required to serve from the beginning of the
scholastic year up to March i, of that year. On this date readjust-
ment of rank is made, based upon the following: Military Effi-
ciency, as evidenced by the fall drills and winter recitations in the
Tactical Department; Military Discipline and Soldierly Bearing;
General Deportment.

UNIFORM.

The uniform worn by all members of the battalion of cadets is
the regulation West Point fatigue uniform, and is made of the best
Charlottesville gray cloth. The uniform consists of the gray fatigue
blouse, trousers and cap for all military formations. By special con-
tract with one of the largest Military Equipment houses in the
United States, the uniform is furnished at a very low price. Meas-
ures for this uniform are taken as soon as the student arrives at
College, and fit is guaranteed. x

In summer, the field service uniform is worn, consisting of olive
drab blouse, shirt, and trousers, with canvas leggins, regulation
campaign hat, tan waist belt and black tie.

White gloves, collars, caps and other military accessories may be
purchased at the stores near the College, or from the contractor who
furnishes the uniforms.

Information concerning the cost of uniforms, etc., may be found
on page 130.

PHYSICAL CULTURE.

DIRECTOR BYRD.

The physical culture of the students is provided for by a regu-
lar course of instruction in the Gymnasium. The course is care-
fully planned, so as to develop gradually and scientifically the
physical powers of each student. One of the most valuable feat-
ures of this Department is a complete anthropometry outfit, by
means of which measurements and strength tests of students are
taken at the beginning and also at the end of each scholastic year.
By means of these measurements and tests the exact physical con-
dition of each individual student can be ascertained, and such spe-
cial exercises given as will produce a symmetrical development of
the body. While desiring to make the work in the Gymnasium of
practical value to all the students, the required work has been
temporarily discontinued on account of unusual conditions, but
will be resumed as soon as conditions permit. Lectures on Hygiene,
the care of the person in its relation to physical well-being, are
given students in the Sub-Freshman Qass.

SUB-COLLEGIATE INSTRUCTION.

PROFESSOR HARRISON.
PROFESSOR RICHARDSON.

This Department was established in 1892, and reorganized in
191 5; and is designed to meet the requirements of those students
who have not had the advantage of a thorough grammar and high
school training, with a view to equipping them to enter the regular
collegiate department.

Only such students are desired as will be able to enter the Fresh-
man Class within a year, and who are fifteen years of age. This
course is recommended specially to students who have not been
to school for several years; for their progress in the regular col-
legiate course, by virtue of such a drawback, would be seriously
impeded. It is to be remarked that as a rule the students who have

taken this course make excellent progress in their later collegt
work. Students in this Department are subject to the same mili-
tary regulations as other students.
For outline of courses see page 113.

VETERINARY SCIENCE.

PROFESSOR BUCKLEY.

This Department offers instruction in the elements of veterinary
science. The course embraces the study of the external form as
well as the internal structure and functions of the domesticated ani-
mals. It is intended to supplement animal husbandry instruction,
and does not have for its object the training of students for veter-
inary practice. The preservation of health in animals is more aimed
at than their restoration from disease. When studiously pursued
the courses offered are of great value to the breeder, feeder or
manager of live stock-

COURSES OFFERED.

The accompanying brief descriptions indicate the scope of the
different courses.

481. Animal Diseases. A study is made of the diseases of the
domesticated animals with emphasis upon sanitation, practical bac-
teriology, nursing, administration of medicine and use of common
medicinal substances. The aim of this course is to enable the stu-
dent to perceive the early appearance of diseases and intelligently
care for them under proper veterinary supervision.

Senior Year-- Second Term, 5 theoretical and 6 practical periods
per week.

482. Animal Diseases. A briefer course in animal diseases is
offered to the students in the two-year Agricultural and Horticul-
tural Courses.

Second Year — Second Term, 2 theoretical and 4 practical pen
iods per week.

THE COLLEGE LIBRARY.

DR. SILVESTER.
MISS CONNER.

The College Library may be properly regarded as one of the de-
partments of the institution, as its aid for purposes of reference
and its influence upon the mental development of the students must
always be felt throughout all courses. The present quarters of the
Library, while adequate for its immediate needs, will necessarilj
be too limited in the course of time. The reading room is well ar-
ranged and lighted, and is in all respects comfortable and conven-
ient.

While the Library is not large, the collection of works has been
carefully chosen, and the shelves contain a fair supply of works of
reference, history, biography, essays, poetry and the standard
works of fiction. Several thousand volumes of bound United States
Government Reports comprise an important addition to the refer-
ence works of the Library. Most of the leading magazines and a
number of newspapers are subscribed for; technical periodicals and
works of reference relating to specific branches are deposited in the
libraries of the various departments.

The works in the Library are classified according to the modern
Dewey Decimal System of classification. As rapidly as possible
the sets of Government Reports that are most valuable are being
completed and catalogued. At present there are on hand completed
to date, or nearing completion, sets of the reports and bulletins of
the United States Agricultural Department, the Geological Survey,
the Fish Commission, the Smithsonian Institution, the National
Museum, the Bureau of Ethnology, the Bureau of Education, the
Labor Bureau, the Census Bureau and the Bureau of American
Republics. There are also nearly completed sets of the Consular
Reports, Special Consular Reports, the Engineers' Reports of the
United States Army, the War of the Rebellion Records and Mes-
sages and Documents, besides many other miscellaneous publica-
tions of great value. Many valuable State publications are also
on file.

It is the aim of the Librarian to render all these valuable works
available for easy reference by the students.

Grateful acknowledgment is made to the officers of all the de-
partments and bureaus above noted for their publications, and espe-
cially to the United States Superintendent of Documents, through
whose aid many public documents have been received. Thanks are
likewise due the following for valuable additions to the Library:
Johns Hopkins University, the Geological Survey, the Weather
Service, the Highway Commission, and the Bureau of Statistics
and Information. Special thanks are due the county press for
their liberality in sending their publications free to the Library.

Aims.

Service, first, last and all the time is the aim of the Y. M. C. A.
It attempts nothing through selfish motives, but through the desire
to turn into right channels a boy's surplus energy.

Nature.

The Maryland Agricultural College Association is affiliated with
the International Y. M. C. A. and membership in the local branch
carries with it a welcome to all city and student associations, and
during vacation periods, entitles the holder to many of the privileges
of the city Y. M. C. A.

Officers.

For the first time a salaried secretary is in charge of the Y. M.
C. A. organization. He works through and with a student cabinet,
having a President, Vice-President, Recorder, Treasurer, and chair-
men of the following committees : Employment, Membership, Social
Affairs, Music, Publications and Bible Study.

The Employment Committee assists students in finding the kind
of work they want, acting as a clearing house to employer and
employee.

The Membership Qiairman's duties are as the title indicates.
The Social Chairman plans receptions, banquets, and social affairs
affording a pleasant evening's entertainment to all. The Music
Chairman obtains special music for Sunday and other meetings,
and the Publications Chairman keeps the public informed.

Regular Meetings.

The Bible Study Chairman organizes bible and special problem
study classes, and endeavors to interest the student in unselfish
ideals.

Special speakers on both popular and religious subjects, are pro-
vided for Sunday 3:30 meetings. The proximity to Washington
makes it possible to obtain the best of talent, Representatives, Gov-
ernment officials, worth while business men, and Ministers of power,
thus making the meetings of great value.

Location.

The Y. M. C. A. is located in Calvert Hall. It has beautiful
quarters; a game room, furnished with all kinds of games, a pool
room, a reading and writing room, and an office for the Secretary.
A good readable line of books having a sane, helpful, moral tone
make the readinsf room attractive.

^fc>

New Students.

Receptions are given to get the new men acquainted with the
student body and with the members of the faculty, so as to make
them feel "at home."

New students are given special attention, warned of dangers and
guided to harmless but interesting methods of "letting off steam"
without scorching their moral fibre.

A handbook is published, giving the student detailed information
about the College, its societies and activities. Upon request it will
be mailed to you free of charge.

The Association welcomes at all times suggestions for its better-
ment and extension of its service.

COURSES OF STUDY.

In order to systematize the work of the different departments of
the College, and as far as possible arrange for specialization within
limits consistent with the normal development of individual stu-
dents, several distinct courses of study have been prepared, one of
which the student is expected to choose upon entering the regular
College work.

These courses are Agricultural Education, Agronomy, Animal
Husbandry, Horticulture, Biology, Chemistry, Canning, General
Science, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical
Engineering, Rural Engineering, and Engineering Education.

A continuous and progressive course of work, beginning in the
Freshman Year, with a nearly uniform course for all students, and
gradually separating in the three succeeding years until the class
work is almost wholly specialized, has been found to be most satis-
factory. A broad and liberal foundation in English, mathematics
and history is laid in the Freshman and Sophomore Years, and
then the particular line of study desired is emphasized more and
more until the end of the course.

In addition to the regular collegiate courses, two-year courses
are given in Agriculture and Horticulture.

There is also a Course in Sub-Collegiate Instruction for the benefit
of students unable to obtain elsewhere adequate preparation for
entrance into the Freshman Class.

Short Winter Courses in Agriculture, Horticulture and Engineer-
ing are given for the benefit of those who find it impossible to
afford the time necessary for an extended course in these subjects.

The Agricultural College, in co-operation with the State Depart-
ment of Education, conducts a six-weeks' SUMMER SCHOOL, be-
ginning this year on June 21st.

The purpose of the SUMMER SCHOOL is to provide z course
of vocational training for teachers and prospective teachers of rural
and graded schools. The work offered this year includes courses
'n Elementary Agriculture, Domestic Science and Art, Industrial
Hand Work, Theory and Practice of Teaching, History of Mary-

land. State and National Constitutions, Chemistry, Physics, Survey-
ing, Botany, Zoolog}^ and Entomology

A bulletin giving a full description of the courses is issued by
the College. For full information address the Director of the
Summer School.

A SUMMER SCHOOL for MINISTERS will be held from
July 26th to August 3rd for those who wish to broaden their field
of service in the communities in which they labor. Courses will
be given in Rural Sociology, Rural Economics, Religious Pedagogy
and Agriculture. Further information concerning these courses
may be obtained from Professor F. B. Bomberger, Dean of the
Division of Rural Economics and Sociology.

A CONFERENCE on COUNTRY LIFE will be held for
MINISTERS on August 4th, 5th and 6th. Leaders of national
reputation will present matters of vital interest to the Church.
Bulletins containing complete information concerning this Confer-
ence may be obtained upon request from Mr. B. H. Darrow, Secre-
tary of the Young Men's Christian Association.

In the tabular statements of the courses the periods per week are
given, the numbers in parenthesis denoting practical or laboratory
periods, the others theoretical or recitation periods.

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION COURSE.

The Course in Agricultural Education is arranged to give the stu-
dent a broad general knowledge of agriculture, languages, science
and pedagogy.

Students taking this course receive practically the same work
during the first two years as those of the other agricultural courses.
In the Junior and Senior Years the agricultural work is continued,
in addition to the special work in pedagogy and practice teaching
which these students receive. Enough of agriculture is included in
the course to enable the student to carry on farm operations in a
scientific manner. The graduate is fitted not only to teach and
supervise the teaching of agricultural subjects, but to manage school
demonstration farms or conduct a farm of his own.

AGRONOMY COURSE.

The four-year Course in Agronomy is designed to fit the graduate
for conducting practical operations on the farm, or, should taste
or circumstances so direct, to prosecute successfully advanced
scientific research along the lines of agronomy, or if occasion re-
quires, to act as county demonstrators or advisers. With these ends
in view, the Course has been made at once comprehensive and tech-

nical. It is comprehensive enough to include whatever is necessary
for the complete development of the work, yet technical enough to
make the student feel that he is a specialist and equipped for special
work.

development of a specialist in animal husbandry, those which will
give a broad training in agriculture and other cultural branches.

TWO-YEAR AGRICULTURAL COURSE.

A large number of young men seeking to better themselves in
their chosen profession of farming are calling for instruction in
those courses pertaining to practical agriculture. Many of them
have neither the time nor means at hand to take the full four-year
Course, but while away in school they wish to gain the greatest pos-
sible amount of instruction and assistance which is particularly ap-
plicable to the farm. They realize that the farm can no longer be
run in the old-time haphazard way, that there is a demand for skill
and the highest order of intelligence to make a success on the farm,
as in any other line of human endeavor, and that brains must be

planted with each little seed, and also put into the feeding trough
for the animal. To meet the demand for instruction along these
lines, and for a better understanding of the underlying principles of
successful agriculture, a short course of two years has been pro-
vided.

It embraces much of the technical work of the four-year Course,
and is especially designed to lay a foundation that will secure suc-
cess in practical farming, which, as it must be conducted today, is a

union of many interests. To enter this Course a working knowl-
edge of arithmetic, including fractions, mensuration and percentage,
and a common-school training in English is required. Upon com-
pletion of this Course a certificate is granted.

SHORT WINTER COURSES.

For men and women who can spare from one to ten weeks only
from their home duties the College offers a series of short courses
occupying from one to two weeks each, beginning after the Christ-
mas vacation.

For 1916 the arrangement will be:

First week — Soils and Fertilizers.

- , , ) Farm Crops.
Second week — V _^ ^. o •

J Domestic Science.

Third week — Poultry Husbandry.

Fourth and fifth weeks — Horticulture.

Sixth week — Horses and Beef Cattle.

Seventh week — Swine and Sheep Husbandry.

Eighth week — Dairy Husbandry.

Ninth week — Farm Implements and Motors.

Tenth week — Farm Carpentry, Blacksmithing and Pipe Fitting.

Experience has demonstrated the advantage of dividing the work
into short periods, during which time the attention of the student
is engrossed wholly with one subject. It enables the student to
concentrate his efforts and affords opportunity for those who are
interested in but one or two subjects, such as poultry husbandry or
domestic science, for example, to take what they desire with the
greatest economy of time.

No charge is made to short course students for the use of labora-
tories. Good board at moderate rates can be secured in the neigh-
borhood. For more detailed information regarding these courses,
write for bulletin and folders.

HORTICULTURAL COURSE.

Through the organization of the Division of Horticulture an op-
portunity is presented for students in the four-year Course to spe-

made a prominent feature of the course. In the Freshman and
Sophomore Years the work is not materially different from that of
the Agricultural and Biological Courses, as all students are required
to take certain fundamental subjects. In the Junior and Senior
Years the courses become specialized.

The College and Experiment Station farm, orchards, green-
houses, etc., together with the close proximity of the Institution to
the United States Department of Agriculture greenhouses and ex-
periment farms, offer unusual opportunities to the students in horti-
culture.

to commercial nursery or flower business, and who cannot afford
the time required for a regular College course.

The Course is so arranged that the students will be given the
fundamental work in horticulture and agriculture, and they can
also specialize in their second year to some extent along the line
of horticulture in which they are particularly interested. Courses
in English, botany, entomology and chemistry are included in their
work.

Upon the completion of the two years' work satisfactorily, the
students are given a Certificate.

SHORT WINTER COURSE IN HORTICULTURE.

A two weeks' short Course in Horticulture is offered each winter
to those who are unable to spend a longer time at the College. The
Course is designed for practical men who can leave home for short
periods during the winter. It consists of lectures on all phases of
horticulture and practical demonstrations in spraying, packing,
pruning, etc. For further particulars regarding Winter Courses, see
page 91, special folders, etc.

BIOLOGICAL COURSE.

The Biological Course, while offering a general education and
special training in the natural sciences, is outlined in particular for
those who wish to specialize in some branch of botany or zoology.
It aims to fit men for practical work in the field of plant pathology
and entomology, but will also give training for special work in the
pure sciences.

In addition, this Course is specially valuable in preparing stu-
dents who wish to enter the medical profession, particularly those
who expect to enter the highest grade medical schools, which require
for entrance a four year collegiate course in sciences and languages.
These students will be required to substitute organic chemistry
for some subject given in the regular Biological Course.

There are many opportunities for scientific workers in connection
with the Agricultural investigations of the Federal Government and
of the State Experiment Stations, as well as in the State inspection

work, for which this Course gives training. In fact, it is now diffi-
cult to secure men trained for such work. Full opportunity is given
for the student to develop his natural resources and to learn to do

CHEMICAL COURSE.

The Course in Chemistry is essentially the same as the other
science courses until the second term of the Sophomore Year, though
any of the four-year courses would prepare for this, as the amount
of chemistry is the same in all courses to the beginning of the Second

Chemical Course.

Term of the Sophomore Year, and the demands on the agricultural
or technical chemist are now so varied that a foundation with more
of the essentials of the agricultural or the engineering courses is
often desirable.

Beginning with the Second Term of the Sophomore Year the
major part of the student's time is devoted to chemistry, the prac-
tical work in the laboratory occupying approximately half of his
time. The Course is essentially a course in agricultural chemistry,
fitting the graduate for positions in agricultural colleges, experiment
stations and the United States Department of Agriculture.

CANNING COURSE.

The great importance of the canning industry in Maryland; the

fact that it is, to a great extent, an agricultural industry, and the

further fact that the suggestion of a Course has met with so many

hearty indorsements from prominent canners, has caused the College

Canning Course.

authorities to establish a Course in Canning, in order that young
men interested may have an opportunity to become acquainted with
the underlying sciences, and at the same time secure a liberal edu-
cation.

During the first two years of the Course the studies will not differ
much from those of the other courses. After this a large part of
the student's time will be occupied with sciences relating directly
to the canning industry, such as bacteriology, chemistry, agriculture,
horticulture, and canning technology. This latter will cover a wide
range and will include the theory and practice of canning in various
lines, experimental work, and lectures from persons of national repu-
tation. Assistance in these lectures has been promised by officers
of the National Canners' Association and others.

A canning expert is to be engaged to take charge of the technical
instruction in canning, which will include both theoretical and lab-
oratory work.

Routine and factory experience are expected to be gained by
students spending at least two summers, usually devoted to vacation,
in a canning factory.

GENERAL SCIENCE COURSE.

The General Science Course is offered to those young men who
have not chosen as their vocation in life any of the technical profes-
sions, but who are seeking for such general culture as will fit them
to become, after graduation, useful members of society. Young
men desiring to study law, or medicine, or the liberal arts, or to
become teachers, will find in the curriculum of this Course a highly
satisfactory preparation for such work. While emphasis has bees
placed upon subjects, such as English, language, literature, history,
mathematics, etc., the natural sciences occupy a prominent place
in the Course and the range of electives beginning in the Junior
Year will enable each to dioose for himself, under certain necessary
regulations, such a group of studies as will be best adapted to his
own peculiar requirements.

standing, if he desires to pursue a more extended course at a tech-
nical school of a higher grade. The curriculum, as outlined, includes
not only studies having cultural value, but the sciences which form
the basis of engineering. Students who have found themselves de-

lOI

ficient in ability to learn mathematics are not advised to enter an en-
gineering course.

A thesis dealing with some problem in engineering will be required
of all applicants for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil
Engineering.

All engineering students in the Junior and Senior Classes are
required to spend a portion of their time in the reading of the cur-
rent engineering magazines.

Hon and operation of electrical machines, but who have a thorough
knowledge of the principles and laws controlling the phenomena
and forces with which they have to deal.

The general plan of the Course is to make the student thoroughly
acquainted with the scientific laws which are the basis of the pro-
fession, and at the same time to train him to adapt the laws to prac-
tice, to use his own judgment, and to apply honest and accurate
methods in all his work.

The curriculum, as outlined, includes those studies which provide
a broad general culture, as well as a good foundation for the engi-
neering work which follows. From the beginning of the Second
Perm of the Sophomore Year the electrical training extends con-
tinuously throughout the Course.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING COURSE.

The curriculum of the several years of this Course is outlined
so as to give general culture as well as a proper foundation for the
profession of Mechanical Engineer.

Young men not having a natural taste for mathematics and the
handling of tools are advised not to pursue this Course. The prac-
tical work of this Course is most thorough. The student is familiar-
ized from the first with the reading of engineering drawings and
with the use of tools and implements used in wood and iron work.
He is given daily practice in the shops and is encouraged to develop
whatever inventive talent he may have. Results have shown that
students completing this Course have no difficulty in securing em-
ployment immediately upon graduation in the field of mechanics ©r
mechanical engineering.

RURAL ENGINEERING COURSE.

This Course is offered to students who wish to become proficient
in such branches of engineering as relate in particular to the prob-
lems of rural communities. The broad training offered in engineer-
ing is supplemented by instruction in those agricultural subjects
which will give the student a greater breadth of view concerning
rural problems requiring the services of an engineer, and, if he
should elect to settle in the country for the practice of his profession,
will enable him to conduct his farming operations with pleasure and
profit. The Course is open to students entering the Freshman or
Sophomore Class in the Fall of 191 5.

ENGINEERING EDUCATION COURSE.

A substantial demand for teachers of the Manual Arts who have
had a broad training in engineering-, has led to the establishment of
this Course. In addition to the instruction in engineering, a
thorough training in pedagogy is offered. Since the need for such
teachers is felt in urban and in rural communities, some opportunity
is given the student when he enters the Senior Class, to select those
subjects in engineering which will best fit him for the solution of the
problems of the community in which he wishes to practice his pro-
fession. The Course is open to students entering the Freshman
or Sophomore Class in the Fall of 191 5.

GENERAL INFORMATION.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION TO THE COLLEGE.

A candidate for admission to the College must present, together
with his Scholastic Record, a certificate of good moral character;
and if the candidate be from another school or college, the certifi-
cate must show that he left such institution in good standing.

METHOD OF ADMISSION.

There are two methods of gaining admission to the Freshman
Qass:

(i.) By Certificate. — The College will accept certificates from
approved high schools of Maryland and the District of Columbia,
and from accredited academies and preparatory schools of this
State and of other States.

The certificates presented by the candidate must be officially
certified by the Principal of the school attended. It must state in
detail the work completed by the candidate and, if the candidate
be from a Maryland high school, the certificate should state that
the candidate has completed, at least, the tenth year of the course
of study as outlined for Maryland schools by the State Board of
Education.

All admissions by certificate are regarded as merely provisional.
That is, while a student presenting a proper certificate is admitted
to such standing as it shows him entitled to, he may be required
to take a special examination or to do special work in any subject
in which his preparation proves to be unsatisfactory ; or if, after a
fair trial, he fails to maintain a standing in the class to which he
was admitted, he may be dropped to a lower class.

Blank certificates conveniently arranged for the desired data,
will be sent upon application.

(2.) By Examination. — Candidates not admitted by certificate
will be required to stand written examinations upon the entrance
subjects. These examinations will be held for 1915 on June 9th
and loth, and September 14th and 15th.

Requirements for admission to the Freshman Qass for the ses-
sion of 1915-16 will be as follows:

Number of Units Required. — For the present, thirteen (13)
units are required for entrance. This is equivalent to the comple-
tion of, at least, the tenth grade of the course of study as out-
lined for Maryland schools by the State Board of Education. A
unit designates not less than four or five "periods" of classroom
work or eight or ten "periods" of laboratory work per week, con-
tinued throughout the school year, each "period" being not less
than forty minutes.

DISTRIBUTION OF THE REQUIRED UNITS.

Of the thirteen (13) units required for admission to the Fresh-
man Class, eleven and one-half (11%) are specified as follows:

date as conditions, but such conditions must be removed by the
end of the Scholastic Year in which the candidate is admitted.

SUGGESTIONS FOR PREPARATION IN THE REQUIRED SUBJECTS.

GROUP L

English. — Preparation in English has two main objects: (i),
command of correct and clear English, spoken and written; (2),
power to read with intelligence and appreciation.

To secure the first end, training in grammar and the simple
principles of rhetoric and the writing of frequent compositions
are essential. The candidate must be able to spell, capitalize and
punctuate correctly. He must show a practical knowledge of the

of study, his attendance record and his conduct record with com-
ment by the President upon each item.

In addition to this, monthly reports are issued for October, No-
vember, January, February and April. These give general infor-
mation as to scholarship, conduct, attendance and health, and call

SCHOLARSHIPS.

High-School Scholarships. — To encourage worthy young men
who desire a Collegiate Education, the Board of Trustees has estab-
Hshed for each High School in Maryland and the District of Colum-
bia, one scholarship each year* to be awarded under the following
conditions:

I. — The person awarded a scholarship must be a graduate of a
high school and qualified to enter the Freshman Qass (See Entrance
Requirements, page 114), and must be of approved moral char-
acter and at least 15 years of age.

2. — The appointment to a scholarship shall be made by the School
Superintendent, upon the recommendation and certification of the
Principal of the High School.

124

The Principal of the High School may recommend one or more
persons for appointment, with information as to the merits of each
case. In making appointments, not only class standing, but inabil-
ity to meet the financial expenses of an education should be given
consideration.

3. — ^The appointment shall be made for the term normally re-
quired to complete the course selected.

4. — Each scholarship has the value of $50.00 per year. This
amount will be credited on the holder's account.

5. — The scholarship will be forfeited by persistent indifference to
scholastic work or by repeated disregard of the rules of discipline
of the College.

6. — The scholarship will be forfeited in case the holder fails of
promotion at the end of any scholastic year, unless there are extenu-
ating circumstances.

County Scholarships. — Counties which do not have a high
school will be given one $50.00 scholarship each year, and the recipi-
ent may enter the Sub-Freshman class (See Entrance Requirements,
page 120). The appointment to the scholarship is made by the
County Superintendent after a competitive examination. In other
respects the regulations governing this scholarship are the same
as for the high-school scholarships.

Industrial Scholarships. For the encouragement of worthy
young men of limited means towards getting a College education,
a limited number of industrial scholarships have been established by
the Board of Trustees to be awarded under the following con-
ditions :

I. — The number of scholarships will depend upon the amount of
service required.

2. — The value of the scholarship will be graduated according to
the amount and character of the work performed, and will range
from $40.00 per year upwards. The amount earned will be credited
on the holder's account.

3. — ^The holder of such a scholarship will be required to render to
the College certain specified services, such as work in the dining-
room, on the corridors, in the library, etc.

*This plan will be gradually put into effect as the present scholarships become
vacant.

125

4.— Such services will not as a rule prevent the holder from par-
ticipating in military drill.

5.— Vacancies as they occur shall be filled by the President of the
College and ratified by the Executive Committee of the Board of
Trustees.

6. — The holder of an industrial scholarship: (a) — ^must be more
than 15 years of age and of normal size, health and strength; (b) —

work.

FACILITIES FOR RELIGIOUS W^ORSHIP.

The College is undenominational in character. The daily exer-
cises of the College include religious worship in the College Chapel.

Students are encouraged to attend the church of their choice on
Sunday mornings. There is an Episcopal church at College Park;
and at Berwyn, one mile north, and at Riverdale, one mile south,
are Presbyterian churches. In Hyattsville, two miles south, may be
found Catholic, Episcopal, Presbyterian, Baptist and Methodist
churches. In the city of Washington are churches of all denomi-
nations, and students may attend service in this city on Sunday
mornings. Parents are urged to insist upon their sons attending
the church of the faith of their parents.

COLLEGE REGULATIONS.

The attention of parents is earnestly called to the following rules
in force at this College: The College authorities can succeed in

126

conferring the maximum amount of training upon the student only
with and by the active support and earnest co-operation of the par-
ent. The President of the College is always ready and willing to
discuss with parent or guardian any failures in a student's rec-
ord, and correspondence on this subject is always appreciated.

No student will be accepted as a matriculate until the contract
card containing the following agreement for matriculation is signed
by parent or guardian, and received by the President of the GjI-
lege.

It is understood that the President of the College as the execu-
tive of the same, and acting for the Board of Trustees, a party to
this contract, has the right to ask the withdrawal of a student at
any time, when in his judgment such withdrawal may he necessary
either for the interest of the young man or the institution which he
attends. It is further understood that a parent or guardian can
at any time withdraw his son or ward, subject to regulations herein
set forth.

A student manifesting indifference to the observance of the rules
and regulations of the institution, or wanting in proper attention
to the preparation of his work, will be cautioned to improve. Fail-
ing to do so his parents, upon notice given by the President, must
withdraw their son.

A special pledge to refrain from what is popularly known as
"hazing," and taking unfair means in examinations is required of
every applicant for entrance, before he will be allowed to matricu-
late. Parents should impress upon their sons that failure to live
up to this pledge is a dishonor which unfits them to be longer stu-
dents of the College. "Hazing' is invariably punished by instant
dismissal.

Frequent absences from the College are invariably of great dis-
advantage to the student, in breaking in upon the continuity of his
work and in distracting his mind from the main purpose of his at-
tendance at the institution. Parents are therefore earnestly asked
to refrain from granting frequent requests to leave the College.

Students will not be permitted to leave classes to answer telephone
calls, unless they are urgent.

127

Students will not be permitted to make contracts or to sell any
article to their associates without the approval of the President.

The College will not be responsible for articles left in the dormi-
tories during vacation, nor for valuables left by students in their
rooms at any time. They should be deposited with the College
Treasurer, who will place them in the College safe and give a re-
ceipt therefor.

RULES ON COLLEGIATE ROUTINE, ENDORSED BY THE FACULTY.

1. A student may not change his course of study unless at the written re-
quest of his parent or guardian, and after said request has been endorsed by
the head of the course abandoned, and the head of the course requested, and
approved by the Committee on Courses.

2. Examinations to make up conditions acquired in any term will be given
only on the mornings and afternoons of certain Saturdays in the following term
set apart for this purpose, and at such dates as shall be provided for entrance
examinations at the beginning of the scholastic year. On these dates students
having conditions will be expected to take the examinations as scheduled and
will be permitted to do so without the payment of a fee. Should, for any reason,
an examination be requested at any other time, a charge of $1.00 will be made
for each subject on which the applicant is examined, provided that all such spe-
cial examinations shall be authorized by the faculty.

3. To attain proficiency a student must make an examination grade of 60
per cent. ; also a term average of 70 per cent. In case of failure, upon re-ex-
amination a grade of 70 per cent, is required.

4. A credit period is one theoretical or two practical periods per week for
one term.

o. A student may not be promoted if conditioned in more than one-fifth of
the credit periods required for one year's work, provided that no student may
be promoted with more than one condition in an:' one department.

6. A student may not be promoted if he has any conditions of more than
a year outstanding.

7. Any student who uses unfair means in examination will: (1) receive no
further examination in same subject; (2) receive zero for examination grade;
(3) receive no commission; (4) receive no diploma.

8. A student is subject to an oral examination at any time vrithin ten days
after a written examination.

9. An examination paper, containing erasures or showing alterations, may
be rejected at the discretion of the Professor in charge, and a new examination
ordered.

10. In computing term averages the daily grade is computed at 2, and the
examination grade at 1.

11. The yearly averages in all studies is computed by giving each subject
« weight according to the mean number of periods per week involved ; theo-
retical periods being given a value of 2, practical periods 1.

12. Senior students must submit subjects for graduating theses prior to
February 1st, and all theses for graduation must be completed prior to May 15th.

13. No special courses are permitted save by consent of the Committee on
Courses. In case consent is granted for a special course, the certificate awarded
attesting work will not have the College seal nor the Governor's signature.

14. No student may take work in more than one class during any one term.

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS.

Students' clubs for religious, social, literary and athletic pur-
poses are encouraged as a means of creating class and college pride,
and developing an esprit de corps among the students. Each class
has its own organization, in which matters relating to the class are
discussed and directed. Officers are elected and the unity of the
class preserved. This has been found to be a decided aid to disci-
pline and tends to raise the standard of student honor.

YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.

Much encouraging work has been done by this organization dur-
ing the past year, and gratifying interest has been shown in the
meetings.

LITERARY SOCIETIES.

These societies are invaluable adjuncts to college work. Through
them a knowledge of parliamentary law is gained, as well as a readi-

ENGINEERING SOCIETY.

One of the newest and most beneficial additions to the M. A. C.
is the Engineering Society. Organized in September, 19 12, it
proved an immediate success, gratifying a long-felt and much-
needed want on the part of the engineering students. The general
object of the Society is the cultivation of a more active interest in
engineering work, while its special aim is to give the student the
opportunity to discuss the line of work in which he is interested and
to become more accustomed to presenting his ideas. Inasmuch as
the Society takes in all members of the Senior and Junior Classes
in the Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Courses, a larger
opportunity for acquiring technical knowledge outside of one's
own course is offered.

^34

The Society meets twice a month on alternate Thursdays. Papers
are presented at alternate meetings by Engineers in practice and by
the students themselves.

THE LIEBIG CHEMICAL SOCIETY.

felt need. The object of the Society is to have the various chemical

This tends to develop a keener interest in Chemistry, and also to
broaden the student along Chemical lines.

more, Junior and Senior Qasses, who are specializing in Chemistry

THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION.

An Institution can largely be judged by the character of its
Alumni. Their success in life is the Institution's pride. The work
of the Alumni of a College is its greatest asset. M. A. C. is fortu-
nate in having among its Alumni, men who have attained notable
achievements in Agriculture, Engineering and Science. M. A. C.
Alumni can be found holding prominent positions in all walks of
life.

While for many years the Alumni, through their Association^
have taken an active interest in the growth and development of the
Institution, it is pleasing to state that this interest has been greatly
increased during the past two or three years and since the recent

138

great fire at the College, the Association has taken active steps to
aid the Board of Trustees and Faculty in the rehabilitation of the
College.

One of the cherished hopes of the Association, that of having
direct representation on the Board of Trustees, has been attained
in the appointment of a past President of the Alumni Association, by
the Governor of the State, as a Trustee of the College. The attain-
ment of this end will naturally greatly increase the enthusiasm and
interest of the members of the Association in co-operating more
closely than ever with the College authorities in increasing the
scope and usefulness of the Institution.

The Alumni Association continues to offer a medal to the debat-
ing societies.

The members have also greatly aided in the development of
athletics and especially in conducting the joint athletic meets, which
were held at the College during the last four years.

The Alumni also co-operate in the publishing of the "M. A. C.
Weekly."

The officers of the Alumni Association for the present year are:
President, R. M. Pindell, '89; Vice-President, F. P. Veitch, '91;
Secretary-Treasurer, R. Brigham, '08; Executive Committee, mem-
bers at large, W. W. Skinner, '95; W. D. Graff, '00; ".M. A. C.
Weekly" Staff— Alumni Editor, E. N. Cory, '09 ; Business Manager,
R. C. Williams, '14.

Graduates and members of the Association are requested to keep
the Secretary-Treasurer, R. Brigham, College Park, Md., informed
of any change in address. Any information concerning the older
graduates which will enable the officers to locate and communicate
with them will facilitate their efforts and will tend to further the
success of the Association.
