the only such teacher in the coua.
ty and only one high school had
such a course. Now there are two
full-time men and this work is be-
ing done in four county high
schools.
One OF the main features of the
work, he said, is that each studen:
must have an agricultural project
and in this project. he said, I'VE
try to teach the boys business
principles and to help them carry
J on this work in a business-like
manner"
Another asset in this work, he
said, is the adult evening classes
