Mr. Win. E. Johnson.

find hero neatness and ample spaco
for the animals to run about in. Spec
ial sheds arc built for the hogs, sheep,
and cattle.
One of the mosf important experi
ments to bo tried this year, is tho ono
in which separato lots of sheep are
to be fed in slightly different manners
in order to test tho suporlor flesh
making method. Small pens havo re
cently been prepared in which separ
ate lots of sheep will bo fed, exposed
to tho blasts of winter. These sheep
will be given the same rations a's the
sheep Indoors. At tho end of tho win
ter both sets of animals are to be
taken to South Omaha and slaughter
ed. The flesh will be tested, in order
to decide which system produces tho
best animals.
There are several breeds of swine
in the different pens. Tho finest speci
mens are the Yorkshires, which aro of
a white color and grow to an Immense
size. The boar pig weighs about sev
en hundred pounds at present, and if
fed for flesh would weigh close to a
thousand pounds in a few months.
Another fine breed is tho Berkshire.
Several large specimens of this class
are among Mr. Burnett's collection.
These hogs are of a black color and
are valuablo as a "pork" hog since
they take on flesh very rapidly.
One of the latest additions is a lot
of Tamarla hogs. Theso are a com
ical looking outfit, being of tho rall
spllttcr variety. To a person who
has never seen a' curiosity of this kind,
these hogs are worth going miles to
see.
But the finest division of stock is
the collection of cattle. Several very
fine specimens of Shorthorns and Her
fords aro owned by tho department
and they show the same care and at
tention that was noticcablo among the
other stock.
Although limited in numbers these
collections are all very fine and the
tho expert will find animals worthy
of his most careful consideration. The
Department is steadily growing and
in the course of a few years, will no
doubt be very Important in the School
of Agriculture.

THE LIVE STOCK AT THE FARM.
Any person who is Interested to any
extent in stock and stock breeding
will find it profitable to take an af
ternoon off and pay a visit to the
State Farm, whore all the animals be
longing to the Department of Animal
Husbandry aro kept. It is Interesting
to examine cattle and hogs that are
being fed scientifically and compare
them with the animals we see upon the
farm.
The work is under tho direction of
Professor Burnett and is entirely ex
perimental. The experiments havo
as an object, the best methods of pro
ducing marketable animals.
Everything in connection with the
experiment is orderly and systematic.
Instead of dirty, small, lots which we
usually see on an ordinary farm, we
dressing rooms, Tho director's office
is on the second floor off of the main
Auditorium and the assistant's office
on the ground floor.
One of the lecture rooms is to be
fitted up with Swedish apparatus,
when special work in medical and cor
rective gymnasilcs can be given, when
necessary.
The large southwest room on the
ground floor is to be used for a girls'
rest and reception room. The ladies
of the faculty have the fitting up of
the room in charge, and with tho as
sistance of all the girls in the Univer
sity, it is hoped to make this a cheer
ful, comfortable room where the girls
may rest anu feel at home.
The Normal course In physical
training is becoming quite popular.
There are now eleven young womon
registered for that part of the work.
A University certificate is granted to
those completing the course and the
value of such a certificate is recog
nized throughout the country.
Through this department knowledge
of tho University is being extended,
in that ' Miss Barr's authopometric
charts, compiled from tho measure
ments of fifteen hundred Nebraska
girls, arc being used in tho department
of physical training in some fifteen
or twenty colleges and schools from
California to Massachusetts. The
classes this year are very large, as
the registration for both beginning
and advanced classes now numbers
three hundred and sixty-four.
