A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

One of the questions to which educationists of the present day are giving much attention is the problem of how to make farm life attractive to boys and girls. To succeed in doing this it is necessary not only to create an interest in the work of the farm itself, but also to lead young people to see the value of training and preparation for farming as a profession. In the selection of material for a Country Life Reader the editor has tried to keep in view both these needs. One of the first steps toward creating an interest in farm life is the teaching of elementary agriculture. But the science of agriculture is an abstract study requiring a greater maturity of mind than most children in the elementary schools possess; and, manifestly, if it is to be taught at all, it must be presented in simple form. A ccordingly, in this Reader the editor has attempted to deal only with elementary principles of agriculture; and, wherever possible, these principles have been embodied in the form of a story. And furthermore, as this is a Reader, and not a scientific textbook in agriculture, no attempt has been made to give detailed information on any subject. The object of the lessons contained in the Reader is to stimulate the interest of the pupil so that he may be led to observe and study for himself.
