There are more people in the United
States. In proportion to population, en-
gagged In the pursuit Of farming than
any other class. Yet there are fewer
as to numbers, who ever Succeed or
make farming a success-especially in
the Southern states. To what do we at
tribute these failures2 In the first
place. they are class OF people who
are not educated in their profession.
The science OF farming requires edu-
