L. C. Ilrooks has changed h * lo­cation from Cramps Shipyard*, Phil-ailelphia, to navy yard, Boston,-where he i« ma ter electrician in (he U. and R, department. Th's change is the result of an examination at which there were thirty-four com­petitors, most of whom were grad. uates of Cornel', Harvard, Boston, etc. As there is only one other electrical job in the navy department better than the one Mr. Brooks now holds, the result of his examination is very gratifying indeed.

FARW DEPARTMENT.

t>yrtr*g to the lateness of the ap-propria'i m the work of moving and refitting the barns did *iot begin un­til the Ia9t week in June. Also, owing to the fact that <>nly one half of the rn toy appropriated wasavail-able this year, hut a part of the work was undertaken.

Wh <t was known as the grain barn, located across the lane from the farm foreman's house, was moved down into the dairy barn yard and placed end t > end against the grade herd barn which was moved last year from its location near the large dairy barn. The annex to the old beef birn was also moved to the south side of the court, and the sheep barn moved into position on the west side of the court. The toof of the old grade herd Nkrn was raised up to 1 he same height as that of the grain barn ad­joining it. These two buildings, now made into one, have been fitted on the south end for the use of the grade dairy herd and on the north end for experimental work with beef cattle.

Cement tloors have been put in ami two or ihree different kinds of stall fixtures arc use ', the idea l»e-i g to make the fittings as practical as possible rather than t » put in those of a fancy nature.

The sheep barn is at present be­ing refitted and •• vera! changes in the old plan will be made. Sixty feet will be added to the ii'srth end of this barn to l e used for 1 xperi-mei.tal work with sheep, and is planned to acconvxla'e a small car load of lambs or weathers.

T w o new silos are in pr< cess of erection. One is built with solid cement wall, while the other con­sists of staves of different materials treated in various ways with pre­servatives.

Some ».f the yard grading has lw«»n n n d r i t a k e n but o w i n g t o t h e

tatenrss at which this work was be­gun, it will to impossible to com-ple'e the same this year.

The building know n as the ex­periment aUliut: barn '.vas SgpJTed to a position west of th« piggery to-twern the P. M. traska and tilt-river. This budding is toin^ re-fitcd as a hospital for the treanient of sick animals K-longing to the

-college and also for such as tray to shipped in f >r treatment or experi meuls a* we!!.

MECHANICAL DEPART­MENT.

M'MMKK HHUUI- .

The attendance at me summer school, while not large, those in attendance *err men engaged in practical work, and showed much in terest in the subjects pursued, snd the results were very sat-sfactory. The limited numtor in attendance » n no doubt due in part to the -»:hcr high tuition demanded which v*a» something of « w * feature at thi. institution. It is confidently tobeved. however, that if the work Ma* . luMio i aroontr f h r csajaa r»f m>>n

for whom the school wa* designed, it could to made a prominent feat­ure «>f the w«»rk of the College.

*IILJ.I<fS MaCBUHK.

Fart of the week dcaie in the ata-vbtoe ahop this ssmtser was in con-weetwaa with a drttaitig Bterhkw d*^ s%sed by the das* e l \it. This saachsae M SO deaigsad that it asay

bemused for l>oth tlrilling and mill ingv On accounfof the large s i / t

j>t many of the parts, the construc­tion of the machine was somewhat delayed, but it was started as soon as p-actical after being designed and, was nearly completed this summer. It will doubtless he in service this term.

This is a large machine in which both the spindle and head have ver­tical adjustment. The tabic is ad­justable vertica'ly on and horizon­tally around the column, and in ad­dition to these two adjustments it is provided with cross feed movements in two directions at right angles. The handle for raising the table, which is usually phced close to the column and is therefore somewhat inconvenient, is in this machine placed at the front of the table. In­deed, all the handles are within con­venient reach of the operator. The machine has automatic feed, auto­matic stops and quick return, and is powerfully back-geared. Being so designed as to admit of use for either drilling or milling, this machine should prove a valvable addition to the taschtne shop equipment.

During the summer achoot-a b. d for a large lathe was cast, which weighed i%r$a puumi*. Ii „a» .jiiitc a difficult piece of work, ami credit iv due those in charge for handling this large casting so successfully.

Several improvements in the forge shop are noted in the way of paint­ing, new screens, etc.

Practically every graduate from the mechanical department last June (25) was em; loved within a few weeks after graduation.

Mr. Ward U.Shedd 'o; . formerly engaged in tngmi-eritiv; work t:t Pennsylvania and more recently in­structor in the mechanical depart­ment, has resigneil his posittofi at the college to again entt-r practical work. l i e will to associated with his brother in contracting work, l ie is at present *t hi* old h»mr. Trkon-sha, Mich. Mr. Shedd was \erv successful in his work at M. A. C. ami his many friends extend to him best wishes for the future.

Work in connection with the JH,.»V. pl r'.r ha- been progressing rapidly during the summer.the work bemg carried on tnaiiiU by college-labor. The most important feature is the large coal shed which is near ing comp'etion.and of which wc shall say more in detail in a future issue.

I HL M. A. C. RECORD.

W O R K S H O P M E T H O D S

I« Hie title of a new Ufwft In, «>ur Mr. \V. S. Leonard of I he inn ban-faral department and published h* J o h n VV'i'ey rV Sort*. It i% a fine large hook of nearly six hundred page* and six hundred e ighty nine ilhifttrations,and» published ostensi­bly as a third edition of the shop notes used in the mechanical depart­ment. It is in reality, however , prac­tically a n e w work pre par* d by Mr. Leonard, and in order that some idea of it* value be understood w e quote from a notice w h i c h appeared in the Engineering Record A u g .

" I hia. hook is nominal)v the third edition of n l»Hik )«rei iouV v i«t<oied in the form of loom- k-a*v«s for the ftwlenta in the mechanical depart mer t of the Michigan Agricultural Co l l ege . Keallv it is a new work, and a very good one. in its o w n special tieid. it i» a de«» liplion of the various tools now used in ma­chine shops and an explanation of their use. JJeginning with the g a u g e s , rule», hammers , chisel*, files and other hand tools , the author gradually proceeds through drills, mti.es, hcr ing machines , planers, •hapers , Blotters, mil l ing machines , gr inding and polishing machines to the final chapters on cer tain broad principles in shop

CLtice. In all this field the k is essentially descript ive;

fortunately no attempt is made to solve the problems facing the de­signer of machine tools, for tMs field is already wel l covered by Mr. C . L . Griffin's "Elementary Text -Hook on Machine Des ign ." Mr . Leonard's work is baaed on the as­sumption that the tools described arc wel l des igned , and that the read­er is only concerned wi th the w a y they run and the class of work they will turn out w h e n properly handled.

S o m e eng ineers may object s trungly to any a t t empt»«teach s h o p practice b y textbooks. It is not the intention of Mr. Leonard to under-take this impossible task, but rather to supply such information content ­ing the equipment of shopt as can be readily iiudi rstood by anyone. A s a matter of fact, all the informa­tion in this t>ook shouiti be pos­sessed by every mechanical ami electrical engineer , w h i l e it is a d e b . atable question w h e t h e r any more is needed except by those w h o pro­pose to become s h o p managers ."
