THE HIGH SCHOOL

To promote growth and increase
wealth in rural communities, an i'm
provement in agricultural knowledge
is necessary. To a large number of
boys, in towns and cities as well as
the country, agriculture offers the
most promising field of vocational en-
ployment. Bnt to be successful farm
ers, and thus to increase the agricul-
tural wealth of the nation, and par
ticuIarly of the section in which they
live, these boys must receive prac-
tical agricultural training.
The United States Bureau of Edu-
cation has just embarked upon a
nationwide campaign to foster agri-
cultural education in high schools.
even city high schools. 1t has found
that few high schools offer any cours-
es in agriculture; that they give far
more time and attention to Greek
and Latin than to food production and
wealth creating.
"The keynote to agriculture in
structiop centers in the high schools. :"
says the Bureau OF Education in its
report.
And these are its suggestions:
Agriculture as vocational sub
ject should be given a prominent
place in the high school course of
study. The subject mould form the
center of course rather than be an
elective in many courses.
1.-THE agricultural instruction should
be employed for 12 months each
year.
1.-THE full time of the agricultural
Instructor should be given to his
subject. and he should not be burden
ed with other duties or routine.
1.-THE, following courses are recon-
mended: Kitchen garden, first year;
small animals. second year; farm ami

reason Brighton is growing out of
the town class into the city class at
