AG MECHANICS HOSTS
STATE FARM CONTEST
The Agriculture Division is composed of three departments — Agricultural Mechanics, Animal Science, and Plant Science. The division provides
degree and nondegree curricula preparatory to professionals and occupations in agriculture and related fields. The college farm is organized and
operated to provide experience and practical training. The farm serves as
a laboratory and production unit where students carry on supervised farming programs in animal and plant science. In addition, livestock, vineyards,
orchards, and crop land are maintained for laboratory use.
This year the Agricultural Mechanics department purchased a new
100 horsepower dynomotor to use in measuring tractor horsepower. The
department also leased three new tractors for classroom instruction and field
work. Besides attending agricultural engineering meetings, the department
also sponsored the state farm mechanics contest for all California high
schools. All staff members belong to the American Society of Agricultural
Engineers.
GREASING A TRACTOR comes easy for freshmen John
Cameron and Darryl Davis.
LLOYD DOWLER
Mr. Dowler, head of the Agriculture Division, supervises the
overall college farm program and the FSC Agriculture Foundation operations. He is currently doing followup studies on
agriculture graduates. Mr. Dowler is a member of the Masonic
Lodge, Scottish Rite, Shrine and numerous agricultural organizations. Outside the college his specials interests are in sports,
junior work in 4-H, and the Future Farmers of America.

CLARENCE JENSEN
Mr. Jensen, chairman of the Agricultural Mechanics department, teaches courses in agricultural mechanics and welding.
He is the advisor of the Agricultural Mechanics Club and a
member of the California Farm Bureau and State Farm Machinery Committee. During the summer of 1960 he traveled
throughout Canada and the northern United States looking
at manufacturing trends and production methods in the
manufacturing of farm machinery.
LEARNING TO TIE knots is part of a homework assignment for Pete Azevedo, Harold
Rasmussen, and Tom Moller, freshmen agriculture majors.
