No omission by the Board Of Education.

Please tell me how it happens that
agriculture is not one Of the subjects
provided for in the course Of the pub
lie schools in this State. FARMER.
The subject is provided for as well
as circumstances allow. The farmer
patrons of the public schools have quite
too much of the method of the distin-
guished Professor Squeers and are ike
~ to- urge their children to practical
scholastic dealing with words. The
consequence of this amiable, but inju-
dicious. tendency is to remove the chill
dren from the schools long before they
are mature enough to comprehend any
AGRICULTURAL training. which would be
of real service. Hence, lack of util-
ity of the course in agriculture is to
be charged elsewhere than against the
public school authorities.
