W, JENNINGS. ~ ~ ....... ,,,,,,,,,,,,,J ON'T turn up your nose when a friend suggests that you encourage your boy to take up farming for his life- , work. I know that a farm· er has been looked upon as an unkempt, Illiterate, awkward, poor, struggling creature without hope of reward for the utmost self-denial and planning, with buildings and grounds and machinery and horses mortgaged, ·wife overworlred, and chll· dren forcea to remain out of achool to help at farm work, nothing but toll and poverty, If such conditions ever really exist· ed generally among Uncle Sam's till· ers . of the soU, which Is extremely doubtful, they have departed, !or agri- culture nowadays Is king. It has taken 11 long time to bring It about; but tho farmer of today has every opportu· nity to be the most Independent and self-respecting citizen of this country. Don't object that you can't afford to pay his way through college (though, for that matter, any ambitious boy can work his way through college without 11 cent from home, and It Is particular· ly easy to do so In agricultural col· leges, for the most earnest effort of colleges all over the United States these days Is -to help a boy become proficient In agriculture). Really, It Is far easier to be a scientific farmer than the other kind, A recent letter from D. J. Crosby, government specialist In agricultural education, to the writer contained this: \Nearly every state agricultural col· lege In the United States makes somo provision !or reaching the young man who cannot secure a college education. Several of these Institutions offer cor· respondence courses and reading courses in ogr!culture: nearly every one of them Is engaged In farmers' In· stltute work or In conducting movable schools of agriculture, or short win· tor courses, at the college or at acces· slble places In different parts of tho state.\ ' So. great has been the Impetus In education for the farmer that there arc 600 Institutions giving Instruction In agriculture, These Include nearly 70 colleges, 110 normal schools, 270 high schools and academies, corresponding and reading courses In 15 states, 15 el· omentary schools, and over 30 !or ne· groes and Indians. Agricultural colleges proper, which are maintained In all the states, g!vo a full college course, generally bestow· lng the degree of bachelor of science, and graduates are fitted for the most difficult and advanced problems of any character In agricultural lines; but so great Is the demand for Instructors that most graduates talre up profes· slana! w'orlr or as teachers, Instead of becoming actual farmers, If for some reason your boy can't go lo college, still every opportunity Is open for him to get all tho education D.n!] training that ho can find time for. To quote !rom one of the government bulletins: \For those engaged In agricultural occupations-tho turmers, dairymen nnd fruit growers, and their sons and daughters who aro unable to leave homo during tho busy seasons-the npeclal winter courses have been or· ganlzed. These courses carry In length from n weolt to twolvo weolm. They nro In most cases severely practical. They .center around the judging pnvl· lion, tho laboratory, tho dairy, and tho cheese room, with lectures and rend· lngo to supplement tho prnctlcums. of which nature study nnd elementnr1 agriculture are Important features.\ These special and extended courses are genernlly'glven with only n slight, If any, charge for tuition, and entrance examinations nre not required, So great has been the recognition ol the Importance of agriculture that In nearly all states It Is taught In the common schools. A typical four-year high school agrlculturnl course In• eludes such subjects as study of the seeds of grasses, grains, and veg& tables; methods of preventing nnd era· dlcat!ng weeds; physical features ol the soil, their composition and b& havlor under different treatments different types of soils and their cha~ acterlstics; chemical constituents ol soils and effects of rotation of crops and different systems of !arming· breeding, feeding, care nnd judging oi swine, horses and cattle; principles of fruit growing, location and climate, t!ll•ge, !ert!Uz!ng, planting, diseases, Insects, spraying, pruning, etc. Another Important phase of present day agricultural education Is the farm• ora' Institutes, of which over 15,000 are hold annually under state or gov· ernment auspices, running from one to several days In duration. They take up a great variety of subjects which fit the particular needs of tho locality where they are held. Attendance Ia always free. The government department of agriculture stands ready to assist !arm· era In every way It can, even to the extent of sending experts to their farms when these experts are within reaching distance. Often this Is done without any expense to the farmers, If the question raised Is one of general Importance. If the· farmer's question can be answered by correspondence or by sending a publication, the expert does not go to visit him; If the Inquiry relates to some new problem of gen· era! Importance, the expert goes to tho farmer.~~ Just· to show what can be achieved by a man that Is determined to be a scientific farmer, note this: A man who has followed the ministry nntl was ordered by his physician to got Into an outdoor occupation, used his savings and a mortgage to. acquire 15 acres nnd a lew cows In Pennsylvania. The land wasn't worth much, nnd he knew nothing about farming; but be got Into communication with agr!cul· tural and dairy experts In Washington and did things as they should bo done In light of modern sc!ent!fio methods. At the end of three years he hnd 30 blooded cows, was employing four men the year round, had paid orr the mortgage, and was clearing $2,000 a year !rom the sale of cows, calves, and farm products, He raised from these 15 acres more food than his 30 cows consumed- though It Ia held by datry !armors generally that usually two acres are needed for ono cow, and for one acre to furnish suffi· c!ent sustenanco Is rare. Perha]ls your boy, It Is safe to say, after learning that. ho doesn't need ta be tho traditional clodhopper because he Is n farmer, but can be as cultured a gentleman aa anybody else, will not pl'otest when ho discovers that you have the farm In mind for him. After he has got all tho education ho feels he oan a!tord ho reaches tho probo !em of how to got n farm. There Is no end of avenues. He can go to work to fix up his father's farm, aa most would probably do, or can get a job as farm hand for a neighbor, who will pny him $10 to $20 a month and board. He cnn save nt least threo-!ourths of this, and by the end of two years or so can make fl1·st payment on 11 tract of land somewhere. , Mostly any sturdy young man cnn get a job on a farm, tho requirements are so obvious and simple; but with tho sclcnttf!c training he has had he will prob11bly have a situation offered him or nnothel' 11vcnuo will bo opened up sumo time befol'c ho leaves schooL Tho mora schooling along scientific agL\Icu!tuml !!nos he can got, the rnoro competent ha w!l! be, of course, and tho moL\c cleal'ly w!l! he bo nblo to out,. line the future, Numerous we!l-trn!nod young men nro employed as suporin· tondonts an largo farms or find their openings In resuscitating so-called \exhausted\ rnrms.
