Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exercises in Agriculture The exercises contained in this book have been tried in high schools by the author. They are recommended for the laboratory work in a one-year course in agriculture. There should be two laboratory periods each week for this work if possible. The value of having each pupil do the individual exercises cannot be over-emphasized. Seeing and noting the results, is believing, in laboratory work. These exercises should accompany the regular class work. The exercises selected are simple and practical, and require but little equipment. Many such exercises have been tried out by the author, in his practice teaching work in agriculture. All those that have been found too difficult for the practice teacher to perform have been eliminated, so that the ones here given can be taught by the average high school teacher. The teacher can select from this list the ones that are best suited to the local conditions. Every exercise in this book can be performed in the average high school with a limited amount of equipment. The equipment should be sufficient, however, for the size of the class. No pupil can perform exercises without the needed equipment any more than a mechanic can do his work without tools. The suggestions for this work came from various sources, such as the Ames School Circular No. 2, from which the suggestions on corn were taken; and the Farm Crops and Poultry Departments Score Card, Iowa State College. The larger part of the material was gathered by the students in the practice teaching class in agriculture. The author wishes to express his thanks to these students for their help.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Exercises in Agriculture For a long time the author has felt the need of a book to put in the hands of the rural teacher as a guide in showing the children the real value of agricultural work in the laboratory. The true teacher feels that all the explanation needed should be given and no more. It should be given in a plain, clear-cut way. The teacher can take this book and use it even if she has not had any work on agriculture. The equipment is simple, so simple that any country school can get it. The things that are used are also practical. This book aims to tell of the things that the child should know in order to become interested in the farm life. The school work is made significant by having the children actually doing the things themselves. The farmer demands that his boy should know how to do things, and there is no better place than the laboratory to do many of the things the child needs to be taught. It is to provide for the doing of these things that this little book is written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exercises in Elementary Agriculture: Plant Production Dairying is an industry of sufficient importance in most States to deserve special consideration in a course in elementary agriculture. The subject would naturally be introduced by making a somewhat more detailed study of the dairy type of cow than was given under animal production. This would be followed by a study of milk, its composition, how determined, and relation to price; handling, and the relation of cleanliness, straining, aerating, and cooling to quality; and uses for consumption as milk or cream, for condensing, for cheese making, and for butter making. In regions where dairying is not an important industry it may be desirable to take up the study Of some other phase of agrotechny, such as sugar making, canning, wine making, or olive-oil making. Rural engineering in most of its aspects is considered too technical for pupils in the common schools, but in every community there will be some Opportunity to examine the plans and structure of good types of buildings, fences, irrigation systems, etc., and to devote some time to drawing simple plans of farms, buildings, and other works. Ad vantage should also be taken of any Opportunity to visit implement warehouses and have the structure, Operation, and care of different types of farm machinery pointed out to pupils. The importance Of good roads, hygienic water supply, and sewage disposal should be emphasized. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Elementary Agriculture: An Elementary Text Book Dealing With Plants, Insects, Birds, Weather, and Animals of the Farm Nebraska is an agricultural state. The products of her soil are the basis of her industries and her prosperity. The children of our great state of Nebraska should be familiar with our crops, our grains and grasses, our flowers and fruits, our trees and shrubs and weeds, our domestic animals and birds and insects. Our children should have a practical knowledge of the management of a farm, of the composition of the soil, and of the adaptability of the farm and its soil for the cultivation of certain plants and the counter effect of such plant growth upon the soil. The children of Nebraska should love nature, they should be taught nature's ways and means, taught to observe her phenomena closely and in such a manner that they will learn to love her. Nearly all industries of mankind have their origin in the soil, and children should be led to see the relation between farm labor and its products and the marts of trade and commerce. Much of the work of the school, including instruction in geography, arithmetic, science, and literature might be correlated profitably with instruction in agriculture and nature study. A school garden with the actual work intelligently directed might prove an inspiration to honest toil and better living.

Download or read book Exercises in Elementary Quantitative Chemical Analysis written by Azariah Thomas Lincoln and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exercises in Elementary Quantitative Chemical Analysis: For Students of Agriculture Owing to the growing demand for quantitative analytical chemistry by those engaged in the study of agriculture, it seemed to the authors that the presentation of the fundamental methods of agricultural analysis as carried out in the laboratories of the American Experiment Stations would be desirable. While this book is designed primarily as an elementary quantitative guide for the use of agricultural students, it may also be used for the work in general elementary quantitative analysis. This text-book is the outgrowth of several years' experience in teaching quantitative analysis to students specializing in Agriculture, Chemistry, Medicine, and Household Science. No attempt has been made to present a complete treatise on quantitative analysis; but a few typical exercises have been chosen to illustrate the fundamental principles and the most important methods of manipulation. To further the interest in this work, the student should be encouraged to do considerable outside reading, and there should be available for his use a number of the best books of reference. In the Appendix will be found a list of some of the most important works having a bearing on this subject, while throughout the text reference is made to the original literature. The gravimetric exercises and the work outlined under Acidimetry and Alkalimetry, together with the analysis of Milk or Feeding Material and Fertilizer, comprise the work usually accomplished by the agricultural students in one semester. Those students who desire more quantitative analysis complete the remainder of the exercises in another semester. Owing to the importance of the calculation of analytical data, this subject has been treated in considerable detail in Part V (Stoichiometry). The matter presented is arranged to be studied in conjunction with the regular laboratory exercises. In addition to the methods of solving problems, a large number of problems is given for practice.

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory Exercises in Principles of Agriculture The work as presented in this manual had its beginning in at least two independent sources: (1) The method of preparing detailed exercises for teaching elementary general agriculture in secondary schools had its origin largely in the teaching and direction of H. B. Brownell, Professor of School Sciences, University of Nebraska. (2) The idea of prepar ing laboratory exercises in field crops and making available to schools the necessary supplies for teaching the same, Originated ten or twelve years ago with Professor's E. G. Mont'gomery and T. L. Lyon, both' formerly of Nebraska, but now at Cornell University. The manual of these two teachers, Examining and Grading Grains, has done much to encourage and syste matize laboratory study in field crops throughout the United States. It was largely the de mand for field crop material created by this manual which revived into life the abandonedidea of supplying field crop laboratory material which had formerly been carried on by the Department of Agronomy of the University of Nebraska. Without the use of ideas from these two sources, the work as presented in this manual could scarcely have been possible. Most of the laboratory exercises presented in this manual have passed through several mimeographed editions, and have been used in one or more of the following Nebraska schools: Teachers' College High School, Lincoln; School of Agriculture, Lincoln; School of Agriculture, Curtis. Laboratory instruction as here outlined is designed to accompany classroom instruction. A division of time that will probably fit most schools is as follows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field and Laboratory Studies of Soils: An Elementary Manual for Students of Agriculture A supply of clean sand, and also some loam, clay and muck soil should be secured in the fall. This material should be dried, pulverized, and passed through a sieve with one eighth-inch mesh, to remove stones and sticks. The exercises are intended to furnish sufficient material for one period per week throughout the year or two periods per week for a half year. Although they are arranged in logical order, it is not necessary that the exercises should be taken up in the exact sequence in which they occur in the text. Indeed, it will be necessary for the teacher to vary the arrangement in order to adapt the study to the season and to the facilities of the school. A small working library should form a part of the equipment. For a study of soils this library should include several elementary books on soils, a collection of Farmers' Bulletins from the United States Department of Agriculture and the publications of the State Experiment Station.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory, Field and Project Guide: In Elementary Agriculture Every sincere teacher of elementary agriculture is striving to make his teaching so practical that it will lead to worthwhile accomplishments. This means that he must not neglect laboratory, field, and project work. The purpose of this little book is to act as a practical guide to such teachers. All the exercises are arranged seasonally so that the various phases of the work may be studied at a time when they will mean most to a child. The exercises in this book are intended primarily to cover two years' work. They are equally adaptable, however, to courses of shorter length where more time per week is allotted to the subject. In both cases, a teacher should consider the outline so elastic as not only to change the order of the exercises when she considers it wise to do so, but also to include others which she considers better fitted to the particular needs of the community in which she teaches. In the book will be found enough material for laboratory, field, and project work to meet the requirements of most states. Throughout the book emphasis has been put upon those topics in which a child in the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades can take part.

Download or read book Beginnings in Agriculture Classic Reprint written by Albert Russell Mann and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beginnings in Agriculture This book is designed for the purpose of introducing the study of \a.griculture into the seventh and eighth grades of our elementary schools. It may also meet a need in some of the smaller high schools and in ungraded Special and private schools. When the pupil comes to well-developed high-school work, he will need a more detailed and specific text. The book is founded on the suggestions in the Report of the Committee on Industrial Education in Schools for Rural Communi ties, Of the National Educational Association. That Committee recommended for the school years 6 to 8, four sets of subjects as follows: first half year, the affairs Of agriculture; second half year, the soil; second year, farming schemes and crops; third year, ani mals. A condensation Of this plan into a two-year scheme has been attempted in the present volume. It has been the aim Of the author to cover the work very largely in a nature-study Spirit, by which it is meant that the pupil Shall be brought into as close touch as possible with the actual farms, soils, crops, animals, and affairs. The problems are intended to set the pupils at work on their own account rather than to enable them to answer questions that may be suggested in the text. It is, of course, essential to practical school conditions that there shall be reading-matter and recitation-matter in the book. Perhaps Part I, dealing with the general agricultural situation, may be used as a series Of introductory reading and discussion exercises, the actual work with subject-matter to begin with Part II. The open book method of teaching, now used successfully in many schools for history and geography, might be employed advantageously with this text, especially in schools in which nature-study receives little attention. It is assumed that the teacher will see that the pupils work out the problems, Or as many of them as have useful application to the affairs of the particular community. It is to be hoped that there will be a school-garden on the premises, or that small areas may be set aside at the homes of the pupils, on which many of the sug gestions in the book may be worked out personally. It is specially to be desired that the parents be brought into the work, in order that the agricultural affairs of the community may be related to the school. Therefore, a large number of problems have been pre sented with this end in view, the expectation being that the pupil will ask the parents for the proper solution of the questions.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Elementary Agriculture The studies of the following pages constitute part of the laboratory course given with the subject of agriculture in the Fresno State Normal. They are designed to prepare teachers for presenting the subject of agriculture in the rural school. They are not predigested and ready for presentation to the child with teacher's story, introduction, description and conclusion complete, but are outlines to direct the student in pre paring the studies for presentation to the child. The work of the student is complete only when, through his own efforts, each study is ready, from the teacher's story to the conclusion, for presentation to school children. Through the preparation of these studies the student gets a broad knowledge of elementary agriculture, experience in pre paring subject matter and material for presenting agricultural studies and nature study lessons, and begins to find, understand, and appreciate the beauty of all things out of doors.
