AGRICULTURAL STUDY COURSES
PREPARED FOR RURAL SCHOOLS

State departments OF education de-
string to introduce agricultural
courses OF study into lementary
schools are taking advantage of the
assistance given by Federal and state
authorities in the preparation of suit
able courses. The Office of Agricultur-
al Instruction Of the United States
Department OF Agriculture, in coop
GRAFTON with the various state depart
ments of education and state agricul-
tural colleges, has prepared outline
courses for Ohio, Wisconsin, Mary
land, Virginia, Arkansas, and North
Carolina, and has a similar course I'M
der preparation for Oklahoma. The
aim of such couses Is to assist the
Teacher of agriculture in presenting
the subject matter to the school pu-
pills. They are used as seasonal guides
in connection with bulletins and other
material now employed in teaching
agriculture in the elementary schools.
Each state manual contemplates
two-year course in Agricultural in
struction. In each case topics are in
tended to be seasonal, permitting APP
plication and observational study; To-
cal, adapted to state and community
needs; and individual, encouraging
personal work. Home project work is
wherever feasible, and 1t
is suggested that the pupil carry one
plant and one animal project each
year.
