Agricultural Public School Training.

The movement for agricultural train
ing in the public schools has found
valuable advocate in the great organ
ization of commercial travellers.
At the recent convention of the
Travellers Protective association at
Springfield, a., addresses were made
on this subject, and the association
voted to present the matter before the
National Educational association at
its annual convention at st. Louis,
The Travellers association passed
comprehensive resolution setting
forth that the stability of our social
and business conditions and the pre-
vention of recurring periods OF trade
depression require that the balance OF
our population should be maintained
on the land as independent home own
ers and producers from the soil, and
that WAYS should be found and car
ried out for placing upon the 4and all
unemployed labor and Transforming
every ''out of work. into the owner OF
a home on the land from which ne
can at all times get comfortable NV
ing with, his own labor II was set
forth that the entire American educa-
tional system should be so remodeled
as to induce every child to be lover
of nature and of the country, and to
train him toward the land as a source
of livelihood rather than away from it;
children should be taught to farm as
they are now taught in France and
Denmark in the public schools, and
that farm training schools should be
established by county, municipal,
state and national governments,
The resolution further called atten-
ton to the great remaining public do
main in the west as by far the most
valuable asset of this nation which
will furnish an outlet for our surplus
labor during this and coming genera
lions, urging that it be reserved for
real homebuilders, who will farm II
in small tracts.
The association appointed a perna-
nent committee on education, irriga-
tion, forestry and land, with member
from each state and territory to carry
out the idea Of this resolution.
