52 DEPARTMENT REPORTS. 



The summer term could scarcely be looked upon as anything more than a 

 continuation of the spring term, for the same general plan of work was 

 adopted. 



During these two terms I received very valuable help from Assistant Mayo 

 in giving instruction in the practical part of our work. I am glad to be 

 able to say at this time that our museum still continues to grow, which 

 keeps the aids in teaching ever on the increase. 



Besides my regular class work I delivered an afternoon lecture in the 

 chapel, issued the required bulletins from the department, and attended to 

 the medical requirements of the live stock in the Agricultural and Horticult- 

 ural departments. During the winter, or through our long vacation, I 

 devoted much time to the study of micro-organisms. 



As veterinarian to the Michigan Experiment Station I have been engaged 

 in experimental work with a disease that often attacks cattle under the con- 

 ventional name of "lumpy jaw." 



As State Veterinarian I have visited many counties of Michigan and 

 attended to much correspondence in connection with that office. I have also 

 delivered addresses at our Farmers' Institutes, and before live stock associ- 

 ations of various kinds. 



In closing this brief report I desire to express a feeling of much gratitude 

 for the courteous treatment I have received from all hands during my opera- 

 tions in all capacities. 



I am, sir, 



Yours respectfully, 

 Agricultural College, ) E. A. A. GRANGE,

REPORT OF THE MECHANICAL DEPARTMENT. 



To the President of the Michigan Agricultural College: 



Sir — I have the honor to submit herewith my annual report of the work 

 of the Mechanical Department for the past year. 



My personal work has been as follows : 



In the fall term — Senior analytical mechanics and elements of mechanism ; 

 junior agricultural mechanics, one half term and sophomore mechanical 

 physics, one-half term. 



In the spring term — Senior elements of mechanism and heat, one-half 

 term each ; senior machine design and junior analytical mechanics. 



In the summer term — Senior electricity and magnetism, thermodynamics 

 and steam engine, and junior analytical mechanics. 



During the entire year Prof. Holdsworth has taught the mechanical 

 drawing, with the exception of the sophomores and juniors in the spring 

 term, when he was occupied with the free hand drawing for the agricultural 

 freshman. We were fortunately able to obtain the services of Lieut. 

 Simpson during this term, who took the two classes in drawing mentioned 

 above, and also the mechanical sophomore mechanics.
