engineering, ladies' course, or the commercial department. The work as prescribed for students taking the agricultural course is as follows:

Freshman year: Geometry, agriculture or carpentry and joinery, botany, general history, rhetoric and rhetorical analysis, solid geometry, mechanical drawing, domestic science, work in shop and on farm, military drill, and physical culture.

Sophomore year: Algebra, literature, physiology, trigonometry, physics, descriptive geometry, psychology, domestic science, household hygiene, stock breeding, surveying, shop, dairying, military drill and physical culture, and rhetorical work. Junior year: Physics, meteorology, physiological botany, geology, zoology, recent history, stock feeding, landscape gardening, entomology, irrigation, hydraulics, farm work, military drill, and rhetorical work.

Senior year: Chemistry, literature, Constitution of the United States, logic, political economy, recent history, sociology, dairying, horticulture, agricultural chemistry, work in garden, military drill, and rhetorical work.

All the courses lead to the degree of Bachelor of Science except that of the commercial department.

The degree of Master of Science will be conferred upon all graduates of the college who pursue thoroughly some line of work after graduation, and who submit an acceptable thesis.

THE LIBRARY.

The college library was founded in 1878 by donations from members of the faculty and interested citizens of Fort Collins, aided by a small purchasing fund derived from the one-fifth mill tax. Now it contains 14,000 bound volumes, besides many thousand pamphlets. Over 100 periodicals are taken by subscription and many by exchange.

BUILDINGS.

The chief buildings are the main college building, chemical laboratory, horticultural hall, agricultural hall, mechanical engineering building, mechanical engineering laboratory, civil and irrigation engineering building, domestic science building, greenhouses and forcing house.

FARM AND STOCK.

The farm contains 240 acres, nearly all under cultivation. The live stock consists of Clydesdale grade draft horses, shorthorn and Jersey cattle, Shropshire sheep, and Berkshire hogs.

SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL APPARATUS.

All departments of science have elaborate, modern, and costly equipment. Fine cabinets of specimens are to be found in the museum. Laboratory work in agriculture and dairying, horticulture and botany, chemistry, physics, geology and mineralogy, comparative anatomy, and entomology is done with the aid of apparatus representing a cost of $25,000.

FINANCES.

All college fees were abolished in January, 1891. Tuition in all the regular and special classes of the college is free. There is no charge of any kind for material used in the laboratory work or for books taken from the college library.
