they will do on their farms. During
the car they will have rope woik,
tool sharpening, soldeung. window
repair, aditional woodwork and some
work on gas engines. The remaining
mechanical phase of the work will be
given to them the second vear.
The second class which is held in
the afternoon was also visited. This
class was doing similar woik to the
other class. This is due to the fact
that this is the first year the school
has had the work.
Besides the cfass work and shop
work each boy in the class, under the
supervision of the instructor, is doing
home project work. This is the prac
tical work that is carried out in con
nection with the work. The projects
in this are poultry, dairy, sow and
litter arid baby be'ef.
The equipment of the school is
very good for most all of the work.
Some additional tools will be needed
when the complete mechanical course
is offored. A small addition to the
shop will also be needed at that time.
A good class room is available for the
work. The boys are at present mak
ing cabinets for the equipment which
has been provided.
The supervisor was well pleased
with the progress that has been made
in so short a time. The general at
titude towards the woik is good,
All of the boys seem to be very much
interested in the work.
Since this school is meeting the
requirements for a vocational agil-
cultural school the supervisor recom-
mends thnt it be approved for the
semester. The appioval or the school
means that one-half of the instruc-
tor's salary will be paid bv federal
