.   THE STATE COLLEGE OF KENTUCKY.
· 74 ?*"
· 75 HISTORY.
` 75 GRICULTURAL and Mechanical Colleges in the United States
' 76 A Owe their origin to an act of Congress, entitled ~An act Donating
` 82 public Lands to the several States and Territories which may provide
· 83 Colleges for the benefit of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts," approved
' 83 July 2, 1862. The amount of land donated was 3,o,ooo acres for each
· 96 representative in the National Congress. Under this allotment Kentucky
· 96 received 330,000 acres. Several years elapsed before the Common-
· 96 wealth established an Agricultural and Mechanical College under the
` 97 act, When established it was not placed upon an independent basis,
· 98 but was made one of the Colleges of Kentucky University, to which
` 99 institution the annual interest of the proceeds of the Congressional land
` 99 - grant was to be given for the purpose of carrying on its operations,
. gg The land-scrip had meanwhile been sold for fifty cents per acre, and
. gg the amount received—-$165,ooo—invested in six per cent Kentucky
cg; State bonds, of which the State became custodian in trust for the
i ' Col1e¤e.
.102 The connection with Kentucky University continued till 1878, when
.102 the act of 1865, making it one of the Colleges of said University, was
.103 repealed, and a Commission was appointed to recommend to the Legis-
.104 lature of 1879-80 a plan of organization for an institution, including
an Agricultural and Mechanical College, such as the necessities of the
Commonwealth required. The city of Lexington offered to the Com- I
mission (which was also authorized to recommend to the General
Assembly the place which, all things considered, offered the best and
greatest inducements for the future and permanent location of the
College), the City Park, containing fifty-two acres of land, within the
limits of this city, and thirty thousand dollars in city bonds for the
erection of buildings. This offer the county of Fayette supplemented
by twenty thousand dollars in county bonds, to be used either for the
erection of buildings or for the purchase of land. The offers of the city
of Lexington and of the county of Fayette were accepted by the General.
Assembly. ~
By the act of incorporation, and the amendments thereto, consti-
tuting the charter of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Kentucky,
liberal provision is made for educating, free of tuition, the energetic
_ young men of the Commonwealth whose means are limited. The
Normal Department, for which provision is also made, is intended to aid
in building up the Common School system by furnishing properly qual-
ifiled teachers. This College, with the additional departments which
1 will, from time to time, be opened as the means placed at the disposal
ofthe Trustees allow, will, it is hoped, in the not distant future, do a.

 2 srixra coLLEcE or KENTUCKY.
A great work in advancing the educational interest of Kentucky. Beiur
entirely nndenominational in its character, it will appeal with coniiglmz ben,
to the people of all creeds and of no creed, and will endeavor, in 5[rict gg;]
conformity with the requirements of its organic law, to afford equal Sm,
advantages to all, exclusive advantages to none. The liberalitv of
the Commonwealth in supplementing the inadequate annual income 515
arising from the proceeds of the land—scrip invested in State bonds, wil], Sm
i it is believed, enable the Trustees to begin and carry on, upon a scale wha
commensurate with the wants of Ol11‘ people, fllé 0p€l`&ti0r1s of the the
institution whose management and oversight have been committed to ·
them by the General Assembly of Kentucky. 381
SCOPE OF STUDIES.  
In the act of Congress making provision for the class of colleges to
which the State College partly belongs, it is declared M that their leading an,
object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical stndieg, she
and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning 35 _ fm.
are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts, in order to promote M,
the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several i
` pursuits and professions in life." To the two departments of agrioiil. pk,
ture and the mechanic arts, contemplated in the act, a Normal School has CO,
been added by the State and an Experimental Station by the United am,
States, while liberal provision has been made for instruction in all St,
branches of science and in the classics, so that this institution is far Og
more than an agricultural and mechanical college, embracing, as it does, th,
not merely the two original departments, but six others. O{
THE NORMAL SCHOOL. Us
The Normal Department of the State College exists under the
authority of acts of the General Assembly approved April 23 and April
29, 1880. Section 7 of the first act briefiy defines the object for which _
the Department was established, ·· a Normal Department or course of l“
instruction for irregular periods, designed more particularly, but u0t S‘
exclusively, to quality teachers for common and other schools, shall be m
established in connection with the College." The second act provides _
the necessary endowment to make the Department effective. 15
The number of students annually enrolled in the Normal School has l~l‘
exceeded expectation. As they come from all parts of the State, and sf
many of them return well prepared for the profession of teaching, they S1
must greatly promote the efficiency of our cornmon schools g€llCl`&ll}`i Si
and demonstrate the wisdom of the General Assembly in providing nu O
inexpensive Normal School, centrally located and easy of access, to ;‘
keep the State always supplied with well—trained teachers. it
THE KENTUCKY EXPERIMENT STATION. A
This Department of the State College originated in a resolution of a
the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees, adopted in Septem- “
l .

 STATE coLLEGE or KENTUCKY. 3
Briug ber, ,335, when the Department was organized and a Director
l°l{€€ ,,,,P0iDt6d_ In 1886 the Station was recognized and named by the
Sfmt General Assembly, and in 1887 it and a similar Station in every other
iiqufl State were eaCl1 endowed by C011gl'€SS with an annual appropriation of
ll 0 0oo.
Colm 515,The work of the Station is directed to two objects: 1. To a con-
“'lll» Smntsnccession of experiments made by specialists, in order to learn
_SC“l° what applications of science will insure the best returns from the farm,
the the garden, the orchard, the vineyard, the stockyard, and the dairy,
fd l0 2_ To the publication of bulletins announcing such results of the experi-
ments as are found to be valuable to those of the people of Kentucky
who seek profit from either of those prime sources of wealth .- the soil,
the Bock, or the herd.
esto Results of experiments have been published in ten annual reports
uhng and eighty-five bulletins, and general appreciation of their utility is
dies, shown in the fact that, while no bulletin is sent except upon application
g as _ for it, the mailing list of the Station contains more than 8,000 names,
mote and is ever increasing.
veral With an ample endowment, a large and commodious building
icul- planned for the purpose, adequate apparatus, a good experimental farm
llhas conveniently situated, and seven capable scientists always employed
nted and in correspondence with other stations, the Kentucky Experiment
i all Station is not only an important adjunct of the College in the education
l lm of students for the leading industrial pursuits, but, directly or indirectly, .
loes, through the wide and continual diffusion of knowledge for the benefit
of so large a proportion of our population, it is bound to be extremely
useful to the Commonwealth at large.
the I
mil LOCATION.
high The State College of Kentucky is established in the old City Park,
;e of just within the southern boundary of Lexington and near the Cincinnati
not Southern Railway. The site is elevated and commands a good view of
ll he much of the city and of the surrounding country.
ideg Lexington, now a growing city of thirty—odd thousand inhabitants,
is in the heart of the far—famed Bluegrass Region, a region distin-
has guished for fertility and healthfulness, wealth and beauty. Numerous
and schools and churches, an intelligent and refined population, well·paved
hey Streets, handsome buildings, extensive water-works, and an unsurpassed '
tlly, system of street electric railways make Lexington attractive as a seat
;au of learning and place of residence, while the splendid stock farms scat-
,, to tcred over the large body of fertile country around it afford advantages
hardly equalled elsewhere for the student who desires to become famil-
iar with the best breeds of horses, cattle, sheep, and swine in America.
Moreover, Lexington is the railroad center of Kentucky, and in immedi-
iof atc connection with Louisville, Cincinnati, Maysville, and Chattanooga,
em- and with more than seventy counties of the Commonwealth.

onoumos.  
The campus of the College consists of fifty-two acres of land, 10. 0
cated within the corporate limits of Lexington. The South Limestone vg;
Street electric car line extends along the greater part of its western Ot]
border, giving opportunity to reach in a few minutes any part of the am
city. The campus is laid out in walks, drives, and lawns, and is
A planted with a choice variety of native and exotic trees and shrubs, to Na
which additions are constantly being made. A portion of the land has Gr
recently been reserved for a botanical garden, in which will be grown rot
the most desirable native plants, with a view to testing their adaptability ral
to cultivation, and to give increased facilities to students taking agricul-
tural and biological courses. Two and a half acres, forming the n0rth· Di
east portion of the campus, inclosed and provided with a grand stand, tor
is devoted to the field sports of students.
About three quarters of a mile south of the campus, on the Nicholas- dt
ville pike, an extension of South Limestone Street, is the Experiment ar
Station Farm, consisting of forty-eight and a half acres, to which sixty. m
four and a half acres have been added by recent purchase. Here the
' field experiments of the Station are conducted, and students have
opportunities to witness tests of varieties of held crops, dairy tests,
fertilizer tests, fruit-spraying tests, in short, all the scientific experi·
mentation of a thoroughly equipped and organized Station. The front if
of the farm is pasture and orchard. The back portion is divided off
into two hundred one-tenth acre plots, for convenience in making crop
tests. m
BUILDINGS. R
The main college building is a structure of stone and brick, rio fh
feet long and 68 feet in width. It contains the office of the President  
and of the Business Agent, and on the third floor, counting the base- ri
ment Hoor as one, is the chapel, in which each day the students and a
Faculty meet, and in which are held public gatherings and such other K
meetings as bring together the entire student body. The remaining lf
space in this building is occupied by recitation rooms and by the society
rooms of the students. g
The Station building is a handsome structure, well planned for the v
object for which it was made. It is seventy feet in length by fifty-four l
feet in width, with a tower projection in front, and an octagonal pro- I
jeetion eighteen by eighteen on the north side. The building is two
stories high, and a basement eleven feet from floor to ceiling. The I
main entrance is on the first floor, on the west side of the building, 1
through an archway fifteen feet wide. The basement is occupied in part ‘
by the Station and in part by the College. The next floor above is ,
I devoted to office and laboratory work of the Station, while the upper floor '
accommodates the College work in Chemistry.
The building devoted to Mechanical Engineering covers altogether
an area of about 2o,ooo feet, is constructed of stone and pressed brick.

There has been established at the College by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture a Station of the \Veather Bureau, with first-class instru-
mental equipment, which is working in close connection with the College
