Excerpt from The Essentials of Poultry Raising: A Textbook for Vocational Agricultural Schools
It is to meet the need of vocational agricultural secondary schools that this effort has been put forth to arrange in sequence those facts that the student needs in elementary poul try work. It is intended that these chapters shall be given in the classroom at the time of the year when suitable material will be available for the corresponding laboratory practice periods, though each chapter. Being complete within itself, allows the assignment of the chapters in any order the teacher may choose. Working diagrams and photographs are provided for these practice periods, in order that the work of the teacher may be lightened.
Suggestions are made for library references for the labora tory periods which should accompany each lesson, and out line suggestions are given for two major projects, with two minor projects that dovetail together. There is also included a school demonstration to show that crossbreeding for two generations means scrubs. In addition to the twenty-two les sons and the twelve laboratory exercises accompanying them, thirty-two additional laboratory exercises are suggested, together with fourteen skills.
