90 STATE BOARD OP AGRICULTURE. 



teachers of home economics and fifty-three (53) young men as teachers 

 of agriculture. The remaining members of the classes were made up of 

 juniors who Avill be in training next year. 



For the practice teaching, we make use of the young Avomen in the 

 East Lansing high school for home economics, and of the young men in 

 the same school for the agriculture. In addition to that, we have taught 

 the subject of home economics in the Haslett Consolidated School under 

 the supervision of our critic teachers, the instruction being given by 

 student teachers. This experiment has proved to be very satisfactory 

 both to the public school at Haslett and to the Teacher Training Depart- 

 ment, and we are planning to continue this work for next year. 



Of the young men trained for teaching agriculture, all except four or 

 five have already been employed, and will be engaged for this important 

 work for the next scliool year; and of the 3"0ung women, all except six 

 are now located in the home economics departments of the public schools 

 of tills State. It should be stated here, I think, that Michigan Agricul- 

 tural College is now providing over fifty per cent of the teachers of home 

 economics of the State and is providing all of the teachers of agriculture. 



We feel there are a number of problems yet to be solved in connection 

 with this matter of teacher training. One is in connection with the prac- 

 tice house and the other is concerning the development of a Smith- 

 Hughes school in the East Lansing high school — that is, the instruction 

 given in home economics and in agriculture, be recognized as Smith- 

 Hughes Depai'tnients. This is a matter for the consideration of both the 

 State Board of Vocational Education and the Federal Board.

 Dear President Friday : 



Herewith I present the twelftli Annual Report of the Division of Veter- 

 inary Science. 



No changes in the personnel of tlie Veterinary Science Division have 

 occurred during the year just closed. However, the work has been ap- 

 portioned difi^erently. The Department of Surgery and Clinic has become 

 the Department of Surgery and Medicine and has carried the teaching of 

 Veterinary Medicine. The Department of Medicine and Pharmacology 

 has been discontinued and Dr. Taylor and the pharmacology has been 

 transferred to the Department of Anatomy. The above arrangement has 

 permitted Drs. Taylor and Johnson to give about three-fourths of their 

 time to aS'Sistance in the Department of Physiology during the fall and
