Teaching Children Agriculture.

An interesting undertaking by a
small New England Grange proposes
to arouse an early agricultural interest
among the children. Accordingly an
acre of land has been purchased in the
rear of the hall, which is Grange prop
erty, and here the children are to have
a school garden all their own One
of the most successful farmers Of the
town has volunteered to direct the
work and teach the children along
practical lines. Each child will be
assigned small plot of ground and
made responsible for it; allowed to
choose his or her own seed, and then
be required to cultivate that crop
thoroughly and faithfully. In the
fall all the children's harvests will be
gathered for an exhibit in Grange hall,
and small prizes will be awarded to
the children for the best products
shown. The whole community has be-
come interested in the undertaking and
the children are thus early enthusiast
tic over their work.
