He took me down to the machinery building and kept ine there for about half a day, ehoeving me all the different tractors and trac- tor tools that they had down there. He'd explain all about the carburetors and disk clutches and deavr-bar horse- power and such stuff, until I got dizzy. I wanted to get over to the barns and • see some of the fine horses that they had at the college. One morning 'he took me into the farm management department office and shewed me a lot of charts and sur- veys that those fellows had made, showing labor income, horse hours, man hours and a lot of stuff that weuedesigeood, but about which I ctauld ' make nei If;;; retraeff.--1 1 did have a good talk veil% one young fellow there tho h He was a a a ug • young instructor who had started out three years before the experiment with a crop of 'corn, which was motor- ized from start to finish.
