have failed to notice the conscious
ness Of need on the part of the Ameri-
can people for some intellect applied
to the tilling of the soil. 1t does not
concern US at present what those con-
ditions are. They may be of an
economic or social nature or due to
an intellectual awakening. People
are going to insist that agriculture
be taught. If our present school
system fails or finds its teaching i'm
possible, the state will be compelled
to go to the expense of building and
equipping special schools. Before
taking that step the schools of today
must give it a thorough trial. 1t is
worth it, not only from the stand
point of economy but by all means
let us preserve the thorough demo-
cratic principle that now underlies
our public and secondary schools

The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-01-01

At meeting of the King County
Schoolmasters' Club, held in Seattle
recently, the question of the educative
value of a course in agriculture in
our schools was brought up for dis
cussion. Each instructor of agricul-
ture or principal of school that is
giving this course was asked to give
his experiences of the work and sug-
gest means of improving and broaden
ing this field. The attempt to arrive
at something more definite in this so
unsettled and untried phase of school
work was a splendid one and it is to
be regretted that the results fell so far
short of the aim and possibilities of
the meeting. After listening to a
splendid talk on school hygiene the
time left was short and many did not
care to remain for the second part Of
the program. This was deplorable as
the settling of this question cannot
be done by few individuals or
schools, but will require the most
careful consideration of the entire
teaching force. No phase of our
school work is in more crying need
for concerted action on the part of
every one interested than agriculture.
In general the reports were very
optimistic and the results obtained
last year seem to justify for King
county, not only a continuation OF
the work but broadening out on a
larger and much more thorough scale.
Accounts of what was accomplished
last year we're indeed convincing and
could not be but an inspiration for
greater things and better results in
the future. Not school but which
was instrumental in awakening its
community to the need for scientific
farming and the teaching of such in
our schools. Glowing accounts were
given of interest aroused, of vege-
tables grown and prizes won. Ger
tainly, these results are worth all the
time and money the county may have
expended.
Yet, in spite of all that was said,
were we not, after all, missing the
most vital point involved? The pro-
gram called for a discussion of the
educative value of this work in our
schools. Is arousing interest and the
growing of vegetables the educative
value of agriculture? Admitting its
great value and its need at the present
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-01-01
Agriculture and Our Schools.
M. T. Newhouse Kirkland High School

time, is it agriculture? is it agricult-
ure from the standpoint of perman-
ency in our schools? By unduly
emphasizing the arousing of mere in
terest have we as instructors been in
strumental in adding agriculture as a
permanent part of our school work?
Is that the issue upon which the jury,
the critical public, will decide the
ultimate fate of agriculture in our
schools? If so, what then about those
communities where the leading in
dustry is mining or fishing or some
thing entirely different from farming?
Is it not possible that there were pre-
sent at that meeting instructors who
would gladly introduce the course
but are inwardly afraid that the com
munity is not going to respond being
indifferent to the tilling of the soil?
The great question for us as teachers
to decide is not, have we succeeded
in arousing enthusiasm and been the
cause of a general awakening, i'm
portant as that may be; but rather
has our experience taught us that
there is sufficient educative value in
this work to justify placing it along
with our botany, history or geometry?
Has it the inherent qualities that
make these other courses part of an
established curriculum? The answer
to these questions will forever settle
the fate of agriculture in our present
school system, one way or the other.
What is there about geometry or any
of our courses that makes it worth
while teaching? What makes history
course the educative value of which
is never doubted?
What is education? These remarks
are not intended to define education
nor even approach such an attempt
but is it not knowledge or an ac.
QUESTION of experiences, either Of the
past or the present? The purpose OF
education is two-fold. 1t must, first,
help US earn a living, and, second,
teach us how to live that life to the
fullest and in the truest sense. 1t is
not always possible nor necessary tc
distinguish between this two-fold
purpose. Where deliberate attempt
is made to train statesman, q
thorough course in history may be
both means of subsistence and g
source of enjoyment. A course in
mathematics may materially increase
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-01-01

the earning power of the banker or
merchant and history study may
broaden his horizon, thereby widen
ing the opportunities for enjoyment.
When our courses lead to clear think
ing, reasoning from cause to effect
they prepare the boy or girl for an
active share in life's work. 1t goes
without saying that any course now
taught must be adaptable to the
class room and the laboratory. In
some way indirectly or directly, any
work must ultimately result in a
betterment and uplift of all humanity.
How far does agriculture meet these
requirements? Does it fall below
these? If so, where and to what ex-
tent? Is agriculture, as course,
rich in thought content? Does it
provide opportunities for clear and
consistent thinking? Is it in itself
capable of logical treatment? Are
our laboratories such that the most
is gotten out of the work? By teach
ing it, are we aiding particular C lass
of people, OF does the benefit bestow-
ed in some way touch all humanity?
No attempt. will be made in this
article at this time to answer any of
these questions. In fact, only the
experiences of the teachers in the
work over a series of years will
ultimately render the decision. Our
aim as teachers of agriculture should
be, at this time, to meet not once,
but often, compiling our experience
so that sometime in the future a
definite stand may be taken. Few of
us realize the Importance of agricult
ure in our schools. Our discussions
should not be limited to work outside
of the classroom, but rather to a
serious study of the adaptation of the
work to classroom and laboratory
methods. Many are convinced that
agriculture should and can be taught
in any school regardless of locality or
interest of the people in the com
munity. 1t is contended that 1t is
line of work in which we are all in
terested, consumers as we'll ss pro-
ducers. Sooner or later the schools
must settle that question:
