Présentation de l'éditeur
This book is primarily, as its title implies, a farm arithmetic. It is not intended to be a medium for the setting forth of the general principles of arithmetic. It is hoped that it may serve two other very important ends in elementary and higher schools. First, it will supply new, concrete, useful, and interesting problems for practice, drill, and review. Second, it will tend to develop in the mind of the pupil an appreciation of and an insight into the quantitative side of farm life. A boy or girl who has once become interested in solving the problems of the farm will not easily be drawn away from the farm. This book may be used at any time after the fundamental principles of arithmetic have been covered, i. e., during the last two or three years of the elementary school, and should ordinarily be completed before the high school is reached. It may be used alone or in conjunction with any standard grammar school, advanced, or high school arithmetic. It is also hoped that this volume may be helpful to a large number of farmers and country folk generally who are interested in the many numerical and quantitative problems that have so much to do with success on the farm.
