Excerpt from Laboratory Exercises in Farm Management
Being a new subject, the field of farm manage ment is not always clearly understood. It has sometimes been confused with animal hus bandry, horticulture, farm crops, or rural econ omy. It may be taught by persons.t also teach these or other subjects, just as horticulture and dairy industry are sometimes taught by one man; but the distinction between the sub jects should be none the less clear. The teacher of farm management finds that his work is much more closely related to animal husbandry, farm crops, and horticulture than it is to rural economy. One of the important subjects in farm management is the selection and purchase of a farm. This bears the same relation to rural economy as does the selection and purchase of a cow. It is the aim of farm management teach ing to unite business principles with the scientific principles taught by the various departments into such a system that the farm as a whole shall yield the greatest profit. The rural economist must somehow tie all the farms together into a philosophy of progressive civilization.
