circular from the Louisiana Depart

When the boy has been interest
ed in the work, the father is sure to
follow in his footsteps. Many times
have I seen the boy prove father to
the man in this work. While farm
ers' Institutes have failed to interest
the farmer, his boys half-acre Of
corn has not; and often he has felt a
keener interest in the contest than
the boy has. He has applauded the
movement that could lead his boy
voluntarily to gather the manure
about the barn and haul it to, the
corn patch; he has appreciated the
interest on the boys part that has
extended to other crops of the farm;
he has willingly taken his boy per-
haps twenty or more miles to the
corn contest, and he has felt a just
pride in the efforts Of his boy. III
his son has been the winner Of a
premium, his pride and satisfaction
have overfiowed; his neighbors have
felt the influence, and the movement
has grown in that district. Thus the
good influence has spread from son
l to father; the best and most direct
interests Of the farmer have been
concerned, and he has responded.
