y- signed to meet the needs of young men 

 who do not have the time to give to the 

 four years' courses. No entrance exam- 

 ination is required. In the first year 

 some of the most fundamental subjects 

 necessary to a general knowledge of agri- 

 culture are definitely prescribed, while in 

 the second year wide latitude is offered 

 the student in"the selection of subjects of 

 study, in order that he may be fitted for 

 the practical work he may desire to un- 

 dertake. 



"The winter courses in agriculture 

 begin December 1, 1908, and continue 

 twelve weeks without intermission for the 

 holidays. They seek to serve those en- 

 gaged in general agriculture, horticul- 

 ture, dairy husbandry, dairy manufacture 

 and poultry husbandry or those who pur- 

 pose to engage in these practical fields 

 of work. Anyone interested may receive 

 a catalog by addressing School of Agri- 

 culture, State College, Pa."
