the school work shall be in large part
economically productive work. 1t means
a school system on which the people Will
spend their money with the same sense
of good business judgement which they
now feel in building barns. 1t means
longer school life for tn farm boys
and girls, for the reason that their WORK
will be necessary as well as educative.
It means in every way more contented
more efficient, fuller rural life.
1t will tend to arrest the drift of the
rural population to the cities. On incl
dent in proof of this, and ] am done.
Years ago in Wright county, Iowa, lo'
boys and Ia girls in rural schools were
asked their plans for life. All but seven
of the boys, and all but IL of the girls
declared that they would have nothing
to do with farming. During the next
three years the teaching of agriculture
and domestic science was introduced. An
other vote was then taken in the same
schools, with Ia boys and l7S girls vot-
/ ing. All but II of the boys and but II
of the girls declared their intention OF
remaining on the farm.
This is revolution in sentiment, and
it means much. Once let these new
schools complete their work OF social
regeneration and the drift will turn from
the cities to the farm. We shall have
opened to all eyes the attraction of rural
life, as well as its material rewards; and
out of the cooperative Intercourse OF
the farmers of the nations will grow the
new democracy which has been the dream
of reformers and humanitarians.

which any advanced class in = country
school may do. They may keep records
Of the egg production of the various
flocks to the end that the best local
strains may be known. They may rec
ord increases in weights of tn different
lots of animals being fed that the best
rations and the best conditions and the
best breeds may be recognized. They
may anaiyze every lot of seed of any
kind brought into the neighborhood, for
foul seeds and for variety. They may
test the seed corn of the neighborhood,
ear by ear, or if this seems impracticable
they may make and send out the cabi-
nets for such testing at the homes. This
work alone would add millions to the
corn crop of any of our corn growing
states if it were universally carried out.
They may test new vegetables and flow
ers. They may make garments for the
homes. They may develop the art of
cookery to the great satisfaction OF the
housewives. They may make war on
flies and yermin. They may make the
hookworm in our southern states a thing
of the past. Some schools may do all
these things now, and any school may
do some of them. And as soon as this
work starts the social center is well on
the way to hourishing birth, whether it
is intended or not.
BEST BUSINESS COLLEGE IN THE WORLD.
There are other and higher tasks to
which the rural schools may address
themselves as they gather strength by
contact with truth-tasks beyond the
power of the ordinary farmer to perform.
One of the greatest of these is the task
of keeping the farm accounts.
Many will be surprised at the state
ment that no satisfactory system of farm
accounts of a statistical nature has as
yet been worked out. So many agricul-
ture economists are now at work on this
matter, however, that we shall soon have
| doubt not, as good cost-system fol-
the farm as we have for the factory. But
it is certain that when the system is per
fected it will be found too complex fol
the farmer to keep. A proper cost sys

plex than the books of a bank. The
| farmer cannot keep it if he knew how

son why the perfected rural school shoul,
not be able to keep the perfected ac
counts for the farm. 1t would consti
! tute work of the highest educational value
for the older pupils of the school. L
would gradually accumulate a mass o.

rural school the best business college il
the world.
A LABORATORY FOR THE FARM.
The rural school will thus become

school. As continuation school IN
which the grown people as well As the
children are enrolled-in fact If not IN
form-it will command the constant at
tention, and attract the intense interest
of every patron. New buildings will be
required, better grounds, and stronger
teaching force; but these will be eagerly
furnished when in addition to giving to
the children and young people broad
and practical education, the school 9
work will have great, growing, and
a measurable money value. Such school
will be merged in the general society Of
its community, and ceases to be a thing
apart. The life Of the school and the
life of the farm will be one.
i Nobody who has seen the uplift which
has come to considerable number OF
our rural communities through CORE
lation of rural school instruction with
rural life can, | believe, condemn this
picture as impossible. 1t is so far from
! being in the realm of the impossible as
to be, in it's beginning, already in exist
ence. Several of the states already re-
quire the teachings of agricultural and
domestic economy in the rural schools.
/ This teaching is in most schools most in.
adequate; but it is doing great good
even in its imperfections. The elements OF
agricultural science are not more diff
cult than are other studies WHICH have
been from time to time imposed upon
our upprepared teaching force! and such
is the grip of real truth related to actual
/ life that this teaching possesses graft
flying vitality already. In several schoo
systems rural life and rural sentiment

| .m convinced that the school must
furnish the nucleus of the rural social
center of the future. 1t must do so by
making its work part of the farm
work of the community. 1t must do so
by an appeal to the economic sense of
the people. 1t must do so by taking over
and performing a great deal of work
than can be done by the pupils to their
great educational advantage, and to the
financial benefit of the farmers. The
schools are equipped or can equip them
selves, to perform a great many such
tasks. They may carry On cow-testing
work for the upbuilding of dairy herds.
They may work out balanced rations for
the live stock and poultry of the neigh
borhood, in each case furnishing the far

and telling what he should buy for the
purpose of balancing the diet. For these
things are a matter of investigation
