Annual catalogue of the officers, students and graduates of the Kansas State Agricultural College, Manhattan ... . is therefore essential to anyunderstanding of the processes of nature or human industry. In the in-struction in chemistry the aim is to insist upon a mastery of the chiefconcepts of the pure science through the agency of text-book drill, acrcompanied by demonstrations in the lecture-room, and experimental ob-servations by the student himself in the laboratory. As the course pro-ceeds, illustrations of chemical principles are drawn from the industrialprocesses of the chemical, agricultural, domestic and other arts, thus im-pressing the practical nature of the study. The ultimate object of theinstruction is to develop in the student the power to form independentjudgments upon the manifold problems of daily life in which chemistryplays a part. Of the studies described below, Nos. 1, 2, and 3, with their accompany-ing laboratory work, are required in all courses. In addition, Nos. 4 and8 are required in all agricultural courses and No. 7 in the domestic sci- Forty-sixth Annual A chemical laboratory. ence and art course. The others are requirements in the graduate yearof the several courses or are electives available for any course permittingthem. Classes in elective courses requiring lectures and recitations willnot be organized for less than three students. 1. Chemistry I. Sophomore year, fall term and first half of winterterm. This work is designed to give the student a knowledge of thefundamental principles of elementary chemistry. As all subsequentprogress in this science requires a working knowledge of its principaltheoretical conceptions and of the rules for naming compounds, the sig-nificance of formulas, chemical equations, etc., much attention is givento these as well as to the practical uses of the substances and processesin metallurgy, engineering, agriculture and other arts.
