for two purposes: — First, to house machines and provide a re- 

 pair shop for classes in farm machinery and farm mechanics ; 

 second, to house machinery as a permanent exhibit of up-to-date 

 farm machinery for the benefit of the farmers of the state who 

 visit the University in thousands each year. 



Greenhouses. — The present greenhouses are too small for the 

 uses of the students taking work in horticulture, farm crops, 

 and soil bacteriology. They are also old and will soon need a 

 large amount of money expended in repairs. They should be 

 replaced with larger and more conveniently arranged buildings.
