Excerpt from A Study of Organization and Method of the Course of Study in Agriculture in Secondary Schools: Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Philosophy, Columbia University
The point Of view is taken at the start that agriculture is to be regarded as a 'mode of life', rather than as a mere activity of pro duction; that agricultural education has to do with the preparation Of youth for life in the country rather than merely with the 'getting things done on farms'. Hence a consideration only of means which have to do with successful production per unit Of land or of labor is not sufficient. In a study Of the curriculum, heed has been given to t he provision of subjects in the schools for so-called agricultural stu dents, other than those which deal with the profitable production Of plants or animals. Agriculture in the schools should be a curriculum rather than a course.
