Agricultural Schools.

The year 1862 is usually regarded as
marking the beginning of new era
in the PROCESS of agriculture, since it
was then that the department of ag
riculture was created as an independ-
ent bureau, and Congress made its
liberal appropriation of 10000 acres
of the public land for each represent
ative for the endowment in each
State of an agricultural college.
Twenty years have passed since then,
and the States have mostly drawn
and used up their appropriations in
different ways and with different re-
suits. The experiments continue
with varying success, but have gone
quite far enough to show that the
hopes raised by the Legislation Of
1862 have not been realized, and
that vast amount of the public do
main has been unwisely squandered
without agriculture being any the
better for it.
In the April Atlantic, Eugene W.
Hilgard reviews these State efforts to
found schools for the special educa-
ton of farmers, and points out what
he regards as the causes Of their fail
nre. He was for some years pro
fessor in an agricultural college, and
he remarks dryly that his paper is
due to "the abundant leisure and OPP
portunity for reflection" which such
a position afforded him. Pennsylya-
MIA and Massachusetts, divided the
fund, applying one part to instruction
in agriculture and the other to in
struction in mechanic arts, both pur-
poses being embraced in the original
donation. The other States have not

separated the fund, but have either
endowed a school for these special
purposes or have added the endow-
ment to some existing institution
Inasmuch as the funds realized
from the Congressional donation were
seldom sufficient to endow a separate
institution, the only feasible way of
utilizing them seemed to be the add
ing of agricultural and mechanical
departments to existing institutions;
but in many States there was a pop
ular demand for separate schools for
farmers or none at all. THE radical
error of the advocates of this PLAN"
SAYS Prof. Hilgard, "was that in their
anxiety to protect the agricultural
student from possible sneers, arising
from the antiquated idea that all
manual labor is beneath the dignity
of educated men, they proposed to
make that idea a determining factor
in the choice of the location, con
nection and organization OF the new
schools by withdrawing them as
much as possible from contact with
the existing centers of high culture.
In this dignitied seclusion they hoped
to convince the pupils, uncontradicted.
of the dignity Of labor, surrounding
them with Il dense agricultural atnos-
phere through which no other rays
should penetrate" But the average
student is obtuse to the amusing
features of blowing, hoeing and weed
ing, and the more so the greater his
familiarity with them at home. He
form his acts to the prescribed dis
may be persuaded or compelled to con
cipline, but it may be gravely ques-
toned whether, as a rule, such com
pulsion is conducive to a preference
for the pursuit of agriculture as a
life occupation" And this is proved
by the small proportion who actually
do become farmers.
Prof. Hilgard's conclusions are, in
substance, that education correspond
ing to that given in the peasant
schools of Europe, impressing upon
the pupil the rules. and practice OF
agricultural operations by means OF
constantly repeated manual exercise
and at the same time giving him
merely elementary general education,
proves unsatisfactory and unaccept-
able in this country. Neither is
there demand for high scientific
training il agriculture, apart from
the need of teachers for the agricul-
tural schools themselves. As for the
colleges which combine agricultural
labor with study, their influence in
improving the methods of agriculture
is Slight, except so far as they have
assumed the character of experiment
stations. "Otherwise they are in
most cases petted on the one hand
and condemned as comparatively ly use
less on the other, in public discussions,
in the newspapers and in the legis-
lature to which they must periodically
apply for pecuniary aid to supple
ment their inadequate endowments."
