1000 miles from home the larses'
farm school ever established In opcr-
atinS successfully at Ailerey In east

! the American expeditionary FORCES
When II was opened ?,Soo students
were admitted and the present enroll
ment is about 1000. This makes II
unqucstionahly the largest school CIV
Ing strictly Agricultural education In
the world. I
The farm school was not included IN
the ORIGINAL plan for educational work
but was added to the plans when II
was urged that many soldiers
would be left out of the educational
work because they would be unable
TO gain admittance To the A. r. r.
university. As soon as the idea was
adopted the army set aside an Ameri-
can hospital center at .Allerey ais the
homo of the school. The educational
commission was given authority TO
plan work and set instructors from
the army TO take up the work of the
school. supplies were secured from
army storehouse and the students
brought TO school. The first week In
April the idea was an accomplished
fact.
The institution looks more like a
hospital than a school since all OF lis
buildings are of that type. Surround
iny the camp is comparatively large
area of level land. This is used for
farm practice and vegetable gardening
for the students of the school. The
camp has it's own electric lights, water
system, and sewage disposal plant
Some work had to be done by the stu
dents when they first arrived as every
thing was not In readiness for the
starting Of the class work.
Agriculture and country life furnish
the entire subject matter for all Of the
courses with the exception of one
course in English to aid the farmer
soldier in the better use of his own
language in everyday life. Ninety in
structors are engaged in teaching the
subjects which are grouped under
the heads of animal husbandry,
astronomy. field crops. rural economy
and sociology. and farm engineering.
Each student takes up every one OF
these courses at some time during MS
twelve weeks course. taking one group
at n time for a certain period, ana
then going on TO the next group.
Practical work in the particular group
is given at the same time that the
student is getting class room lectures
and study upon that group.
The minute you step into the class
room for visit you get feeling that
there is something. doing The stu
dents are there for business and they
want the most they can get in the
short time that they have to spend at
the school. The instructors understand
the attitude OF the students and work
hard te bring to the sessions the best
things they know from experience and
college training. They present this IN
simple and practical way for they
know tia. Is what the men in their
classes want. Our young army teach
ers are doing a fine job" said an ex-
perienced agricultural teacher whose

When the instructor gets thru with

up for discussion. Then the class ses-
sion takes on n new lep,e of life.
Sometimes n half dozen men are try

benefit of everyone present, The field
and shop work are. also associated

economy and sociology subjects ae for

that "the farmer and his family are of
more importance than the farm. ~
!s a pronounced success at Allerey
and the classes in this group are
among tn, most interesting at the
school. The rural church, the home,
the school, good roads. all these things
are debated thoroughly after the
teachers talk.
Class room discussions are not the
only way that the men have of dis
cuss;ng their problems. There is
farmers club organized for every sort
OF group that can be found. In all
some forty clubs are organized, each
with a membership ranging from ten
to nearly 200. The discussion is con-
Quoted with freedom among the men
and the interest Ia so great. that the
discussions run up for two hours and
longer at times. Not the least I'M
portant thing that the men are getting
out of these discussions is the, contact

so that the form could not ne used to
the fuiles. extent. Live stock OF the
most satisfactory kind could not be
procured for the animal husbandry
classes and instruction had 10 be
modified to fit conditions. Neverthe-
less those in charge of the school think
that s n great success and they do
not back proof for their belief. They
see results that promise much in every
community to which the men return
when they go home. They are getting
a full understanding of the Importance
and dignity OF agriculture; they are
learning TO work together and to raise
the standards that are, set for rural
life and rural public affairs.
