Agriculture College
Sees Less Burley
It

was announced yesterday from
the College of Agriculture that the
1938 agricultural conservation program provides for a larger acreage
of burley tobacco and for somewhat
less dark tobacco.
The program for next year, while
similar to this year's program, sets
national, state, county, and farm
crops and
goals for
crops. Provision is
for
crop acreages that are
made for
usually required to meet national
needs for consumption and for export.
Each farmer will know at the
beginning of the year what his acreages are and what his maximum
payment will be. Thus he can plan
his year's operation well in advance.

Sour Mash

5265.000

The new $265,000 central heating
plant, which was designed and supervised by the College of Engineering, and which will save the University aproximately $13,000 per year
in fuel and labor, is ready for use
this fall.
Location of the new plant will be
South Upper street, adjacent to the
building that houses the de
sen-icpartments of buildings and grounds
and physical education. It was
in this position to allow the

coal to be handled directly from the
railroad siding, and also to permit
the condensate frn all the buildings to be returned to the plant by
gravity.
This plant was designed, by the
Collepe of Engineering to serve the
double purpose of a utility for the
entire institution and a steam power plant laboratory for the engineering students.
It has a capacity of 150.000 pounds of steam per
hour, which is three times the comsepbined capacity of all the
arate plants it replaces, and sufficient to supply the present and
proposed new buildings, wilh 50
per cent in reserve.
The plant was designed to burn
any kind of eastern or western
Kentucky coal so as to afford a wide
unbiased and economical choice of
$fuels from any part of the state
and to act as a testing laboratory
for these different grades of coal.
The design has all the diversification of equipment for educational
purposes compatible with first cost,
operating cost and practicability of
operation, including two kinds of
boilers; a late type of pulveriier-fuboiler, the only one of its type
in the state, and two side furnace
water wall spreader stoker fuel
boilers.
