year and the latter with -. Indeed,
it may be said that New York. with its

these are nature-study clubs, quite diff

they are for girls as well as bows.
In Ohio the boys agricultural club
movement was started about two years
ago by the organization of a club in
Springfield township. Clarke county,
under the direction of superintendent
of Schools A, b. Graham. The work at
this place does not differ materially
from that in Illinois. 1t includes the
testing of varieties of corn, garden
vegetables and flowers and some work
with insects, wild flowers, weeds and
soils. There are now 16 boys agricul-
tural clubs in ten counties of Ohio,
with total membership of nearly 700.
