Some Exercises in Farm Handicraft for Rural Elementary Schools (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Some Exercises in Farm Handicraft for Rural Elementary Schools States the handicraft club work has received considerable attention. Others of the exercises are from publications Of this department; still others are original with the author, being those he has used in giving instruction in agriculture in public schools and in his work on the farm. It is hoped that the exercises outlined will suggest many others. A large number of school, farm, and home appliances can be made by schoolboys, and the making of these things trains the hand and the eye and develops habits Of accuracy and neatness. The work can be done as a part of the regular school work or during spare time at home. It will be a recreation as well as a benefit.
