This table is compiled from the reports of the comptroller, and the amounts given are the total of the disbursements of the university funds and the Agricultural and Mechanical College fund, and of the warrants drawn on the general revenue fund for the University, the Agricultural and Mechanical College, the state experimental stations, the College of Industrial Arts, and the normals. The amounts are gross amounts, as it was not possible to ascertain all refunds and deduct them from disbursements. If the amounts given in this table are deducted from the amounts in the column headed Education in Table 8, the expenditures of the state for common school education can be obtained.
The statistics for 1909 are incomplete because of the condensed character of the comptroller's report for that year. The expenditures of the Agricultural and Mechanical College fund are omitted, but those of the available university fund were obtained from the report of the board of regents.
