[,*;. 7;, United States owe their origin to an act of Congress
entitled “An Act Donating Public Lands to the sev- i
Y I d · · · · ,
era States an Terr1tor1es4wh1cl1 may provide Col- .
‘ Li.- leges for the benefit of Agriculture and the Mechanic
XI- Arts," approved July 2, 1862. The amount of land donated was
XI, 30,000 acres for each Representative in the National Congress. Un-
\’l. der this allotment Kentucky received 330,000 acres. Several years
XI. elapsed before the Commonwealth established an Agricultural and
. Mechanical College, under this act. ll/hen established it was not I
placed upon an independent basis, but was made one of the colleges V
Xl. ` of Kentucky University, now Transylvania University, to which ,
lf. institution the annual interest of the proceeds of the Congressional
land-grant was to be given for the purpose of carrying on its V
M- A operations. The land—scrip had meanwhile been sold for fifty cents ,
M· per acre, and the amount received—$165,0oo—invested in six per V `
cent Kentucky State bonds, of which the State became custodian :4
M. in trust for the College. _ ·‘ , .
M. The connection with Kentucky University continued till 1878. . .~
M. when the act of 1865, making it one of the Colleges of said Univer-
M. · sity, was repealed; and a commission was appointed to recommend _
M. 4 to the Legislature of 1879-80 a plan of organization for an insti-
l\I. ’ tution, including an Agricultural and Mechanical college, such as ~
M· the necessities of the Commonwealth required. - A ~ -
M· The city of Lexington offered to the Commission (which was l
also authorized to recommend to the General Assembly the place
which, all things considered, offered the best and greatest induce- '.
ments for the future and permanent location of the College) the
City Park, containing hfty—two acres of land within the limits of 4
the city, and thirty thousand dollars of city bonds for the erection A
of buildings. This offer the county of Fayette supplemented by 4 I
» twenty thousand dollars in county bonds, to be used either for the _ 4 .
erection of buildings or for the purchase of land. The offers of i I 4

A 2 THE STATE Umvrnsiry -
L/ 1.; ufl t `
· ‘ Lexington and the county of Fayette were accepted by the General
_;§ ., ` Assembly.
By the act of incorporation and the amendments thereto, con-
stituting the charter ofthe Agricultural and Mechanical College
of Kentucky, liberal provision is made for educating, free of
A tuition, the energetic young men and women of the Common- V
wealth whose means are limited. An act of the General Assembly -
of the Commonwealth of Kentucky approved March` 16th., 1908, —
changed the style and title of the institution from Agricultural .
and Mechanical College to that of State University, Lexington, v_
‘;*. 2 ‘ Kentucky. The University, with the additional departments which T
' A shall, from time to time, be opened as the means placed at, the A
ti disposal of the Trustees allow, will, it is hoped, in the not distant {
_, gi, future do a great work in advancing the educational interests of Y
Kentucky. Being entirely undenominational in its character, it
{ff appeals with confidence to the people of all creeds and of no ~
·_;= creed, and will endeavor, in strict conformity with the requirements t
, of its organic law, to afford equal advantages to all, exclusive
` privileges to none. The liberality of the Commonwealth, in sup-
Q plementing the inadequate annual income arising from the pro-
}j _ [ j ° ceeds of the land-scrip invested in State bonds, has enabled the
_ ' Trustees to begin and carry on, upon a scale commensurate with -
tr",} the wants of our people, the operations of the institution whose
libc; . management and oversight have been committed to them by the ‘
i , . ` W t- General Assembly of Kentucky. E ~,.
g . SCOPE OF STUDIES.
·; ln the act of Congress making provision for the class of insti— ,
_` ‘ tutions to which The State University belongs, it is declared ·"that p ·
Q their leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific =`
·,, ` and classical studies, and including military tactics, to teach
such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the lf,)
, ‘ mechanic arts, in order to promote the liberal and practical educa-
{ tion of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and profes-
I. sions of life." To the three departments of agriculture, the me-
· c— chanic arts, and military science, contemplated in the act as indis-` _;,
` pensable, an Experiment Station has been added by the United i
‘ . I States, and liberal provision has been made for instruction in all {
I·;i" ` ` branches of science and in the classics, so that this institution is l ‘

,f ` DEPARTMENT OE EDUCATION.
l` , In 1893 the college authorities, in response to a demand for .
gl “ advanced instruction for teachers, organized a full collegiate course ` ·
’ leading to the degree of Bachelor of Pedagogy. In 1906 two full . 1
11 collegiate courses, each with Education as a major, were substi- . . I
1’ . tuted for the course established in 1893. One leads to the degree `
h 1 A of Bachelor of Arts in Education and the other to Bachelor of '

it { KENTUCKY EXPERIMENT STATION.
O The Agricultural Experiment Station of the State University
S I was established by the Executive Committee of the Board of Trus-
C l tees in September, 1885, when the Department was organized and ` .
" . a Director appointed. In 1886, the Station was recognized and
" named by the General Assembly of Kentucky. In 1887 it became _
C the beneficiary of the first annual appropriation of $15,000, under
h ‘ E the Hatch Act _pr0viding for the establishment of Agricultural
C , Experiment Stations for the States and Territories. In 1906 "for
S ` the more complete endowment" of Agricultural Experiment Sta- ` i
‘v. tions, an act of Congress, known as the Adams Act, appropriated ‘ ._ _
to each State and Territory $5,000 for the year ending june 30, ,. \ v_
IQO6. and the same sum with an increase of $2,000 per annum for i ` , .,
five years. after which the maximum of $15,000 shall continue
Qc ~A without change. I
C P ` The work of the Station is directed to two objects: 1. To a eon—
1 stant succession of experiments made by specialists, in order to
E learn which applications of science will insure the best returns from , ‘ p
·"* the farm, the garden, the orchard, the vineyard, the stockyard, '
- and the dairy. 2. T0 the publication of bulletins announcing such .
- results of the experiments as are found to be valuable to the ·
I M people of Kentucky who seek profit from any one of those prime ‘
S -5 sources of wealth—the soil, the flock, and the herd.
1 , The results of experiments have been published in nineteen i
_ l annual reports and one hundred and forty bulletins, and general
° I appreciation of their utility is shown in the fact that, while no i ` ,'

gaged in seven divisions of research and in correspondence with T

LOCATION.
,,`;fitt
The State University is located in the former City Park, in the i
· southern part of the city of Lexington and near the Cincinnati
:`il~j`=‘ ’ ` Southern Railway. The site is elevated and commands a good
·_ _ ,_ view of much of the city and of the surrounding country.
_Q iii a Lexington, now a growing city of forty thousand inhabitants, is 1 _.
`1 in the heart of the far—famed Blue Grass region, a region distin·
if guished for fertility and healthfulness, wealth and beauty. Numer- l_
ff? i n. ous schools and churches, an intelligent and refined population, well
" H paved streets, handsome buildings, extensive waterworks, and an L
lj ; unsurpassed system of street electric railways make Lexington at-
; ’ » tractive as a seat of learning and place of residence, while the
’ — splendid stock farms scattered over the large body of fertile
' country around it afford advantages hardly equaled elsewhere for V
the student who desires to become familiar with the best breeds
in of horses, cattle, sheep, and swine in America. Moreover, with ‘
·. railroads diverging in seven directions, Lexington is the railroad
‘ · center in Kentucky, and in direct connection with Louisville, Cin-
if i cinnati. Maysville, Huntington, and Chattanooga, and with more ;
V" than seventy counties of the Commonwealth. And when to the l
. I ., electric railways now in operation to Georgetown, Paris, Versailles, EQ,
·i and Frankfort, those projected to \Vinchester, Richmond, and Nich- (R
. olasville shall be added, the hourly trains of these roads will enable l
" students residing near them to attend the University conveniently
li from their homes. [
