_ 7 _ as adequate facilities for proper training in the fields covered by the curricula. The instruction is typical of vocational philosophy-~the classroom lecture and discussion established by actual application on a commercial scale. The typical student schedule consists of a four—hour morning program of classroom instruction in the major fields and related subjects, and physical education. The afternoon is spent in developing the skills through actual practice in the agricultural and industrial enterprises carried on. The agricultural division maintains a l400-acre diversified farm of which about 800 acres are range land and the balance under cultivation and in campus. The farm is stocked with beef and dairy cattle, sheep, swine and poultry, and with plots and facilities for orchard, landscaping and field and truck crops enterprises. The meat animals in the foundation herds include 12C purebred Hereford and Shorthorn cattle, 60 purebred Hampshire, Shropshire and Southdown sheep, and 40 head of swine of Duroc-Jersey, Poland-China and Chester-?hite breeds. Several animals have been gifts to the School from noted breeders interested in perpetuating a fine line of breeding. Among them are the entire Poland—China sow herd of the famous Straloch farm three miles from Davis—-one of the best— bred herds in the United States. Several high quality purebred animals have been given to the School at various times by such peeple as Will Rogers and Jilliam Randolph Hearst. The dairy cattle in the foundation herds include approximately 80 head of purebred Guernseys, Jerseys and Holsteins. Although most of the stock is only two years of age, the School has a herd average of 410 pounds of butterfat per cow, 3 figure which will be considerably higher this year. The herd includes several State Fair champions and grand champions, as well as the outstanding holstein cow on the Coast. The poultry flocks are the result of several years of careful breeding and selection for low mortality, high liveability and high quality of egg. +—
