where agricultural facts are
..erely transferred from the book to
Che pupils mind, nor one where the
hupil watches q splendidly manlpu,,
lated experiment, or is a party and
promoter of some agricultural DEM
onstration. Vocational agriculture,
as taught today, is method Of teach
ing where the pupil is the demonstra-
tor. the promoter, the dividend de-
clarer, and the profit sharer. 1t con-
siders the pupil as the fellow into
whose head agricultural facts are to be
lodged, but it goes further, and con-
siders the pupil as the fellow whose
hands must be taught to turn this ag-
ricultural trick, and into whosespock,,
cts profits shall go. 1t is method
made to- fit the boy, rather than try
ing to fit the boy to the method.
This big idea found legal expression
in what is known as the Smith Hughes
law. This law was enacted IN 1916
and embodies the best ideas OF voca-
tional agricultural teachers, the meth
ods by which they shall be taught, and
defines what safe guards shall be
thrown around the use OF Federal
money for public education. The
government agrees to pay half the ex-
nenses of teaching vocational agrl-
culture, provided the teaching is up
| to definite standard, which standard
lis submitted by the states and agreed
to by the Federal Board for Vocation.

| and construed that one section OF the
country can't be favored above otnel
sections. The state, or school, thai
does the most for itself gets tine mos

THE educational advantages, par
lticularly agricultural, that this Law
ltprovides are more real than apparent
Manv of us have been rather insis
tent on the idea that the strons
should help the weak, that the rlci
sections of the country should neil

MAKING FURNACES
 READY FOR WORK

Two idle furnaces were added to the active list in the Birmingham district during the month of March. making total of 9 in operation on April l. They were the Alice of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Company in the city of Birmingham. and the Philadelphia furnace at Florence.
 The output of pig iron in Alabama m March was 20A SIS tons. an increase of le579 tons over February and 2,5S0 tons over January
 Reports from Taladega state that the furnace at that place which has been
 idle for more than a year will be in op- eration in short time. The furnace and yards are being cleaned up, the com missary stocked and other preparations looking to the blowing in of the furnace arc said to be under way.
 It is also reported that preparations are
 making for blowing iii one of the char coal furnaces at Shelby and the fires may be lighted in 1t during the present month. The demand for pig iron continues good though not so active as it was a month or six weeks ago, when consumers lseemed to be anxious to lay in stocks to
 run them through the summer months | Prices have remained about stationary
 since the little furry that carried them up to s42 for No. ? foundry, and then back to S40 which is now the preValllnE quotation for that grade.
