SOmerville Agriculture Club

Some Of the accomplishments of the
agriculture classes of the Fayette
County High School during the past
year.
Since September 18th. the agricul-
ture classes have completed shop,
the material which was granted by the
High School Board. The boys built the
shop under the supervision of Prof. M,
L. Cozine, the agriculture instructor.
The shop has been we'll equipped with
both blacksmith and carpenter tools
and other equipment necessary to carry
on the shop work of the essential Jobs
to be done on the farm,
Even though the boys have built this
shop they have not neglected their
books. The theortica as we'll as the
practical forms part of the agricu-
ture course. They have accomplished
much in judging and classifying horses,
sheep, cows, hogs and poultry.
They have planned and built self
feeders for hogs, A shaped hog houses
and have gained working knowledge
farms and farm methods.
We might say right here that DR.. ].
H. Gilman has shown lively interest
in the boys by giving them the benefit
of professional lectures on tuberculosis
In cattle, hog cholera, and various other
subjects and by tsking them out to the
farms and giving practical demonstrs-
tions in the control OF these diseases.
We wish to extend hearty invitation
to the boys of Fayette County who ex-
pect to attend school next fall to come
to Somervile and take the course in
at the High school. This course is
doing Emuch TO raise the sstsndard of
farming in this county.
We assure you that it will be ian in
study and that it will be time
we'll spent.

Why Boys Leave the Farm

Why did you leave the farm, my lad
Why did you bolt and quit your dad?
Why did you beat it off to town?
And turn your poor old daddy down?
Thinkers Of platforms, pulpit, press
Are wallowing in deep distress;
They seek to know the hidden cause
Why farmer boys desert their pas.
Some say you long to get taste
OF faster life and social waste;
Some say you silly little chumps
Mistake your suit cards for your trumps
In wagering fresh and germless air
Against the smoky thoroughfare.
We're all agreed, the farms the place,
So free your mind and state your case
well stranger, since you've been SO
frank,
III roll aside the hazy bank,
The misty clouds of theories,
And show you where the trouble lies.
! left my dad, his farm, his plow,
Because my calf became his COW,
! left my dad, twas wrong of course,
Because my colt became his horse.
| left my dad to sow and reap
Because my lamb became his sheep

Because my pig became his pork.

Twas bis to sell but mine to hoe.

But lust the method of their dads.
