Shaping The Course Of STUDY.

Another line of work is the prep
aration Of the agricultural lessons for
the course OF study followed by the
common schools OF the state Under
the direction OF Supt. Stockwell the
county schools are teaching agricul-
ture, and the department of extension
prepares weekly outlines and SUCCESS
tions as to the way in which the SUBJ
Ject snail be carried forward, so that
directly through the contests, and in
directly through the agricultural
teaching in the schools OF the state,
the agricultural college is reaching out
into the years to be, and is preparing
the farmers of tomorrow for a broad
err conception of agriculture, in the
hope that as the years pass. fewer and
still fewer of the boys will find their
inclination leading away from the farm
and that as population is increased,
and land becomes more valuable, the
farmers of North Dakota may keep
step financially, and enjoy to the full
the comforts OF life possible only to
those who know how to utilize to the
best advantage the things coming to
their hand.

The Slogan is Back to the Farm.

On the other hand the work under
the supervision of Professor Randlett
has grown out of the demands upon
the regular teaching work of the
school. The developing interest in the
cultivation of corn, for example, has
called into being the corn shows Of
the state. Indeed it is hard to say
which takes precedence, and whether
in a larger measure than we can fairly
compute, the growing of corn in North
Dakota does not trace back to the in
luence of these county corn shows.
Only a few years ago there was moth
ing of this kind in the state. Today
the agricultural college, in cooperation
with the county superintendents, is
holding corn shows in a territory COW
ering one half the area of the state.
touching every section, and enlist
ing an army of 5000 boys and girls who
are learning the elements of success
in the growing of corn.
