AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION.

(From the St Johnsbury CALIFORNIAN.
Vermont is to be congratulated on tn
sentiment that is steadily growing IL
favor OF the practical education of ID
boys and girls, an education for the life
they are best qualified to live rather shan
away from It. Much benefit can zee eN-
pected from such a course. But the state
must enter into the new system of edn-
cation cautiously and with care to adopt
only such methods as will produce etli-
cheney.
The State has been offered two farms
in Rutland county on condition that they
are used as agricultural schools and
bill has been introduced in the besisla-
ture asking that State agricultural
school he established in Addison county.
The state already has an agricultural
school at Randolph Center which is not
fully equipped and there is the Vail agri-
cultural school at Lyndon which Is fully
equipped and will some day become the
property of the state. Should all the
propositions for new schools be accepted
the State would ultimately have five agri-
cultural schools and would be obliged to
maintain four of them. Now the ques-
ton arises. whether or not the State
would be able to maintain so many efil'
Client and progressive agriculture
schools. We fear that the history OF
three normal schools in the State might
be repeated and instead Of having the
| number of institutions that could be
prof,ably maintained II would have 81
many on its hands it could not make any
| of them what they should be. 1t would
| seem to be wise course for the State t'
wait before opening more agricultural
schools until 1t has properly equipped the
one 1t has and learned whether or not
there is a permanent demand for more
schools than 1t already has. Two first
class schools would he worth much more
