Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essentials of Agriculture The American people have definitely decided that the public schools shall teach pupils to think and to do; that, so far as is consistent with a reasonably liberal culture, the training of the student shall relate intimately to the life he expects to lead. For a century and a half agriculture has been regarded by a few of the foremost educators as worthy of a place in our public schools, but it is only within the last decade that the dream of these educators has approached realization. Agriculture, wherever well taught, has proved to be a source of strength to the school, whether a one-teacher country school, a high school, a college, or a university. In no way is it possible for the school to serve the local community more successfully than through instruction in agriculture. This may be best accomplished through the utilization of the facilities of the neighborhood as a laboratory. The gardens, orchards, and farms, and, indeed, the gardeners and farmers themselves, should be utilized to the fullest extent. By this means the school and the community are brought into the closest relations, and there is awakened among the farmers a lively interest in the work of the school. If the farmer is to support properly his own family and the two town families for whom he must provide food, he will need all the help that science can give. The way the two families in town will live is definitely related to the degree of skill with which the farmer tills his land and the degree of intelligence which the townspeople display in utilizing the farmer's products. This book is for students who desire a practical working knowledge of the essentials of agriculture. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Counsels on Agriculture written by Ellen G. White and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 100 years before the terms "organic", "local" and "sustainable" were in vogue, Mrs. Ellen G. White was urging her readers to return to the land. The industrial revolution was pulling people from their agrarian roots, and she foresaw the end results. Although the world was heralding a new age of progress, she was lamenting a turning away from the "old paths." In this volume you will find counsels for parents, teachers and school administrators, gospel and healthcare workers, farmers, and anyone else who wants to come closer to God's ideal lifestyle. Unlike many who preach one thing while practicing another, Mrs. White was a passionate gardener. Reading diary entries and letters about her own work in the garden will encourage and amaze you. Although this counsel is dated, it is particularly relevant to those living in the 21st century as they navigate through the technological revolution. May the reader hear the call back to God's original garden plan. The compiler has searched the author's original manuscripts and letters to find context and to discover previously unpublished "gems". As you read, you will be challenged, motivated and inspired to experience the mental, physical, and spiritual benefits promised to those who work the soil.

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.
