   Zoology. This is a thoroughly practical course designed to prepare the student for efficient work as a teacher of science in the district schools. Through laboratory work, dissecting, microscopic examinations, and drawing, the student is made familiar with the lower forms of animal life, and obtains an insight into their relation to the higher forms by a comparative study. The influence of environment is discussed at some length. 
  In classification types of the main branches and classes of the animal kingdom are exhibited in the laboratory.  
  Three hours per week one half year. 
Text-book, Jordan and Kellog's Animal Life. 
   Botany. A study of plant societies and plant families is conducted to make familiar the ordinary plant groups that a student will meet in rural occupations. Some time is given to the study of algae and fungi groups which are pests to the farmer and gardner. 
   Slides for microscopic examination will be prepared by each student. The morphological changes will be carefully noted. Methods of cultivating the common plants and sterilizing the fungi destructive of domestic plants will receive consideration. 
Three hours per week, second half-year.
