France Considering Adoption of Our
Methods of Teaching Farming to
Boys and Girls.

France is considering the adoption
of Uncle Sans methods Of teaching
better farming and home making to
boys and girls. Representatives from
the French high commission, lately In
this country, made a point O. studying
department of agriculture and the
state agricultural colleges In conduct
ing boys and girls clubs. Much of
the information thus collected has
been widely reprinted by the French
press, accompanied by editorial COM
ment expressing the view that, the
man or woman power of France hav.
ing been depleted or disorganized by
war service, France for some time to
come will be dependent in large part
upon its younger population for its
food supply and suggesting the forma-
ton in France of q nationwide system
Of boys and girls clubs patterned on
those in America. 1t Is expected that
these clubs will grow staple products

and forage crops poultry and farm
animals on farms not devastated, the

put in condition. They will stimulate

dismay the effect the speaker was

The climax came when the parson,

That was too much for the local
