PLAN NOT FEASIBLE?

Geo. n. Kennard was at Pierre last
week to attend the sessions OF the con-
servation congress. He reports a
great meeting, with some very able
addresses, and it is also his opinion
that the action OF the congress will
very probably result in some needed
legislation by the present session.
However, there is one recommends
ton by the congress that Mr.. Kennard
Ices not regard as feasible under pres
ent conditions, and that is the teach
ing of agriculture in the rural schools.
Mr.. Kennard favors it, as those who
know him naturally expect that he
would, but he says that the only way
to do 1t would be to centraliZe the
schools, taking in a wide territory and
the securing of a specialist along agri-
cultural lines. The young lady teach
ers Of the rural schools are paid only
from forty to fifty dollars a month and
could hardly be expected to acquire a
knowledge of agriculture and as a
matter Of fact the youngsters could
learn more from their fathers on the
home farm. The tendency in Brook
ings county is away from school CEN
tralization, as at nearly every session
of the county board there is a petition
ia for the division of a school district.
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1913-02-06

and selecting a new location for the
upbuilding of a large central institu-
ton of learning. The agricultural col
lege is the only one not included in the
plan, as it is not practicable to trans
fer the farm school from its present
location in Brookings. The normal
schools at Springfield, S~pearfish, Aber-
deem and Madison, the School OF Mines
at Rapid City and the state university
at Vermillion will be moved and con-
solidated if the people vote for the
change at the November election in
1914. The buildings at all the schools
represent IN investment of about ST.
10000 all of which will be abandoned
in case the movement is approved.
The idea has the support practically of
all of the leading educators in the
state"
