One Of the desirable features Of the
Grange is in promoting agricultural cd
ucation, OF which it may be SAID that we
are deficient, and in comparison with
those OF other countries II glance at the
statistics will show this. In 1870 there
were only sixteen agricultural schools in
the United States. Ireland only lacked
one Of having four times as many in 1851
as we in 1870. The same can be said Of
Russia and France. 1t is said that one
Of the finest is the Royal School Of Agri.
culture; founded by King William in
1878. These are connected with n farm
OF S25 acres, u forest Of 5000 acres, a
botonic garden, library, geological,
neurological and botanical collections,
collections Of woods, seeds and resins
from the forest, collections Of compare
tive anatomy Of wood and agricultural
products, models of instruments Of
lillage, Instruments for surveying and
physical science, and well appointed
chemical labratory. There are forty
courses ofiustruction, comprising a sys.
tenn OF lectures upon the various sciences
relating to agriculture and an intelligent
method Of farm management. II has
graduated several thousand students,
and it can be further said that
seven.eighth OF the students at one.
OF the European institutions chose
farming for their occupations, leaving
only 0ne.eighth for other vocations.
And still further the agriculturists Of the
United States have fallen off, it is said,
twenty per cent during a comparatively
short period. Why is this2 We believe
because We lack agricultural education
and improvement. We know nothing Of
the composition Of soils, or as to what
kind is best adapted to the different
cereals. Intelligence is the secret oil
success in this as well as in all other
callings. 1t is by this that the farmer
can be made to feel that there is work
outside OF mere farm drudgery for him
to perform. Hence the necessity OF the
establishment OF agricultural schools,
societies, journals, &c, which il conduct
cd properly cannot fail Of producing
beneficial results.
