cattle up to the standard of perfection which they should attain, it will be 

 necessary that a larger fund be appropriated each year for the purchase of 

 breeding stock. 



We are also handicapped for room, especially with the swine. The present 

 swine barn is not only located in too close proximity to the classrooms on 

 the campus, but the lots surrounding it, which are used for forage purposes, 

 have been grazed continuously by swine for fifteen years and are overflowed 

 bj'- the river each year making it practically impossible to conduct any forage 

 crop experiments. I would earnestly recommend that the swine barn be 

 moved across the river at the earliest opportunity, and not less than twenty 

 acres be set aside for experimental work in swine production.
