The Vocational Agriculture department at ortheast high school is the first one to be established in the Lincoln public schools. The work in this department is designed to help teach high school boys to farm.

Two days a week are spent in shop, learning to do some of the simple farm mechanic jobs that all farmers have to do. Part of the school work is carried on in the form of farming projects at the boys' homes, and it includes such things as dairy cows and calves, ewes and lambs , sows and litters, laying flocks, baby c hicks, fattening calves, gardens. and the production of brome grass. The value of these farming projects amounts to more than two thousand dollars.
