 The following is a production of New Mexico State University. One of the best equipped diesel labs in the Southwest is located in the College of Agriculture and Home Economics at New Mexico State University. The seemingly unusual location for diesel mechanics began in the early years, when all students were required to study blacksmithing and the analysis of horse quality. The course included a study of tricks used by unscrupulous horsemen to hide horses' flaws. With the advent of the Iron Horse, the Ag College replaced its blacksmith shop with an automotive shop in 1918. Agricultural mechanization courses have always included the latest developments and today students can receive both a degree and a certification in diesel mechanics. For the early years, I'm Carla Aragon. This has been a Centennial Celebration Minute from New Mexico State University. The preceding was a production of New Mexico State University.
