Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Farm Life Readers Everywhere it is being urged that agriculture be taught in the public schools, but everywhere the teacher answers that the course of study is already overcrowded. The Farm Life Readers are offered as a solution of this problem. When pupils are reading from these books they are also studying agriculture in a simple and attractive form. Nothing is lost from the time which should be devoted to practice in reading, but a vast addition is made to the pupil´s store of fundamental, practical, and helpful knowledge. In preparation of this series of readers, then, the authors had three definite objects: 1. To furnish to grammar school pupils good literature for practice in reading. 2. To enlarge the reader´s ideas of country life, - to open his eyes to the dignity of farm labor and to show the freedom, health, and prosperity that may come to those who live in the country and pursue the business of farming with intelligence and energy. 3. To teach certain fundamental principles which underlie the true art of farming. The material which the authors have gathered to serve these ends may be classified in three groups: 1. A series of original articles, prepared by competent scholars, covering, in logical order, the fundamental principles of agriculture. These lessons in agriculture are illustrated with attractive photographs and drawings which help the pupil to understand clearly the principles involved.
