Director State Board of AgrlculureJ
One Of the greatest needs OF the
American farmer Is efficient farm
help. Our cities are overnan with
the miserably poor. Non,producers
are cut Of proportion to producers
Men have left the farm because the
farms were not sufficiently renumera-
tive. The farm has been renumer-
alive IN almost every instance where
efficient means have been employed.
Lack OF remuneration has been
wholly due to bad methods which In
turn are due to back of an under
standing Of the principles that under
lie agriculture.
Our educational system has been
such as educated our people from
the soil
Our land boosting and our cries of
Back to the iaadr have had two ef-
fects; the one a good one. the 9th.
er a questionable one. 1t has called
the attention Of the business world
to the conditions OF the land, and
to the methods employed upon 1t,
which has bean VERY good indeed.
1t has caused many to go back to
the land and they carried bad meth
fods with them and the results have
been sad disappointments.
Go back to the land If you want to
but for the sake OF yourselves and
that of the soil do not take wrong
methods with you.
Since we have Educated our peo-
pie from the farm there is but one
correct way to take them back and
that Is to 'educate'' them back by
teaching them the science Of agricul-
ture. MAT WILL TAKE TTlEM
BACK.
II this be true there is but one log
ical conclusion and that is the edu-
cation must be done i'm our rural
and high schools to the largest ex-
tent, as but a very small per cent
Of our people ever go beyond the
rural school much Tess the high

MCMILLAN FARMERS GIRSS
TELL WHY They ARE
STUDYING AGRICULTURE

There are almost 100000 womer
farmeIs in The United States to
day. In the Mcmillan High Schoo
class in Agriculture almost two
thisds of its members are girls.
The Ledger thinking it would be in
teresting to learn why they were
studying Agriculture interviewed
each one ard had her give her reas-
on for taking the course. Prof. Fin
| ley is making this department Of Nc
MILAN most successful and popu-
lar one and the girls are among
the most active members in 1t.
At the Emmons Shorthorn cattle
sale, last fall. the girls guessed
nearer the correct weight of certain
steers than the boys and were right
in line with their masculine class
mabes when 1t came 10 pointing the
animals.
The following are the various in
terviews:
Beulah Snook.
Because my home is in the coun-
TRY, and l want TO know more about
the soil we till, and the products
we produce and more about the cane
and production Of animals and fowls
that we raise on the farm"
Elizabeth Pearson.
Because you can obtain broader
knowledge of all farm plants and
animals. 1t helps a girl as much in
the kitchen as 1t does a boy in the
field. IL you want to have a good
garden, you would know in what
kind of soil to raise it and how
to care for the vegetables after the
seed is planted. II you are going to
live on a farm, you would know some
thing of how to care for it,. p
Polly Powell.
Because think a girl should
know something about the soil and
what it produces. Also about ami
mails even IL she does not have
much to do with them"
Mary Griffin.
ITO have some idea of the source
Of our living; this, / think, every
one should have, and If you study
Agriculture in the right way you
can certainly get the idea. Because
| 1t treats of the improvements of
grain stocks and soils. And from
these we get most of our living
Clara Myers.
Because / like It. Then, too, IL
you want a garden, you will know
Something about the soil and what
things are best for certain soils. 1t
Is Just as beneficial to girl as 1T
Is to boy. 1t gives you broader
knowledge Of plants, animals and
soil. If you were going to live
on farm, it would help you care
for It."
Lena WhItson.
Because / am fond of all studies
Gs nature. Agriculture teaches US
things that we would not otherwise
learn in school. 1t is for one and
all, and Is very useful in every
walk of life. 1t also gives clearer
idea of structure of our natural
SURROUNDINGS.
Ferrie DANES.
First, because it rs something
real, end real things are always
more interesting than Latin or some
thing of that kind. Next, it is
something everybody needs, for II
you would want to buy good ami
NAL OF land, how could you tell
IL they were good IL you hadn't of
had Agriculture"
Fay Snldow.
Because we are soon going to
want to know or do now want to
know all about the different indus
tries and occupations of life. Since
we know that Agriculture is the
foundation of all manufactures, min
ing, industries and commerce; and
agriculture is based on nature It,
