Excerpt from Elements of Agriculture: A Text Book for Public Schools There is a general movement all over the United States in the direction of placing Elementary Agriculture in the course of study for country schools. In order to secure a county teacher's certificate in Wisconsin, the applicant must pass an examination in elementary agriculture. The Missouri Agricultural College and the Missouri normal schools are carefully training teachers to present this subject in country schools. In South Carolina it is taught in the eighth and ninth grades of the common schools. In Nebraska the applicant for second-grade certificate is required to pass an examination in the elements of agriculture. Elementary Agriculture finds a place in the common-school course of study for the state of Illinois, and is even taught in some of the schools of our large cities. These instances suffice to show that the subject is receiving widespread attention. During the past few years there have been several excellent books written on the subject of Elementary Agriculture for rural schools, but they are of necessity somewhat local in their treatment of the subject. Most of these books are from the cast and south, a few from the middle west, but none from the northwest.

Excerpt from Teaching of the Elements of Agriculture in the Common Schools: Address One might reasonably assume that this is an extract from an address before one of our farmers' institutes, or has been taken from a lately issued report of some department of agriculture, and that they are the words and opinions of some leading agriculturist. Not so, however. These are the words of Egerton Ryerson, the founder of the public school system of Ontario, taken from the introduction to his text book on agriculture for use in Ontario public schools, and written in 1870. I can well believe that twenty-five years from the present some student of the educational and economic history of Ontario will be hard at work studying out and trying to explain why so little progress was made in general agricultural instruction in that Province during the years from 1870 to 1899. During that period four text books at least were available and various attempts weremade at encouraging the work; but in 1898, as far as Ontario was concerned, we were no further advanced than we were in 1870.

Excerpt from The Essentials of Agriculture The American people have definitely decided that the public schools shall teach pupils to think and to do; that, so far as is consistent with a reasonably liberal culture, the training of the student shall relate intimately to the life he expects to lead.

Excerpt from Elements of Agriculture: For the Use of Primary and Secondary Schools Gentlemen: - Two of your new colleagues, Mr. Bentz, Director of the Normal Primary School of the Department of the Meurthe, and Mr. Chretien, Professor of Rural Economy in the same school - both honorary members of the Central Agricultural Society of Nancy - have just published an elementary work on the science that you cultivate. I have been appointed to examine, and report upon this work - a duty that I most cheerfully undertake. I must, however, be first permitted to declare, that with me it is a subject of some delicacy, inasmuch as I have myself published two works having the same object in view with that of Messrs. Bentz and Chretien; it shall not, however, prevent me from stating candidly the impression made upon my mind by their publication. I have read, with attention and continued interest, the "Elements of Agriculture for the Use of Primary Schools." The first observation that struck me was, that they had been faithful to their title-page. Thus, we find nothing in their work that is not absolutely elementary, but sufficient, nevertheless, for the object in view. The teacher may with confidence draw upon its pages for all that seems to be of primary necessity, for himself first, and then for the children or adults confided to his care. Another thing that we remarked on opening the new work of our honorable colleagues, is the insertion at the end of each subdivision of a chapter, of a series of questions, so skilfully put, as to compel the reader or scholar to review, involuntarily as it were, the subject upon which his attention has for a moment been directed. This is a happy idea - an innovation that may bear good fruit; and we do not hesitate to aver, that the complete absence of replies seems to us the more judicious, as it compels, in the formation of these replies, an exercise of both the judgment and memory.
