GREATER THAN EVER
SPLENDID PRACTICAL FARMING
EDUCATION FOR NEW MEXICO
YOUTH RIGHT AT HOME

Agricultural College, N. M, July
5s-Many OF New Mexico boys and
girls, who graduated from high
school earlier in the summer are now
seriously considering the matter Of
further education, which will fit
them for the battle Of li~fe-profes-
sional or yo%cational. training which in
the years to come will afford them a
living and provide for those who will
be later dependent upon them.
Choice Of a life vocation requires Sc
rious study on the part of the boy or
girl and sound, practical consideration
by parents.
It might be opportune at this time
to remind those most interested, that
There never has been a time since
agricultural colleges were first organ
lied that the demand for trained
agriculturists has been greater than
it is today. A man who spends four
years in an agricultural college, hav-
ing had some experience on a farm
before entering, has a good position
awaiting him the moment he leaves
the college doors. The man who has
had a few years actual experience af-
Ter leaving college, having proved
his worth in agricultural work, can
almost pick his job aud name his
own salary. All the leading colleges
are expanding and adding new
courses in agriculture which call for
more teachers of agriculture, the
public schools are adding a~gricnltu-
raj courses, calling for trained agri-
cultural instructors. Many Of the
larger famers are now looking for
agricultural managers. men Of theory
and Of practice who can operate a
farm at a profit These positions all
pay we'll There is a great demand
now for county agent. Nearly every
state has a long list Of counties de-
string experts. and these places can
not be filled until competent men are
available.
The field is almost equally broad
for women. It is true they cannot
do some work that the men can do.
But they can do some work that the
men cannot do. especially IN the
home economies field. many posi-
lions being open as instructors and
demonstrators in almost every part
of the country. In short there is no
greater opportunity for the boy or
girl starting out IN life, than there
is for those who train themselves for
