One of the agencies which is help ing in a very effective way to arouse more interests on the part of the farm boy in in the farm and farm activities is the Smith-Hughes work in agriculture which is being carried out in a greaf many high schools in Journal-Stockman territory. The work is effective because it is more than book-learning alone. It is a combination of class-room and labor atory work with work in the field. The Smith-Hughes instructors in agriculture are on the job 12 months of the year. Every boy enrolled in the course is required to carry on a project on his home farm. That project may be raising chickens, growing corn, raising pigs, keeping tests on the cows of the dairy herd, etc. One of the essentials in this work which commends it, is the fact that the boy carries on book-keeping practices. When he finishes his corn project he knows how many hours of labor for man and horses were required. He knows whether the production of that corn resulted in a profit or a los3. The same is true in feeding of his hogs. Having learned the co&t of production, he can determine what some of the fact ors were that reduced the profits or made the project a losing one. Na turally he has learned a real lesson with the completion of the project. Aericnltaral Work In Nehawka. A Smith-Hughes course is estab lished in the Newhawka consolidat ed schools at Newhawka, Neb. The instructor in this work as well as the superintendent is L. W. Burley. "As this a small school," says Pro fessor Burley, "we are carrying but part time vocational agriculture. That is, we alternate a course in crops and soils with one inanlmal husbandry. The shop work goes along well as the work is more or less indi vidual, pupils taking harder projects or jobs as they progress in the farm. The farm shop -at the school is not plastered but rough inside and the pupils always feel at home there. They are not afraid of hurting the building and it gives them condi tions such as they would have in the shed at home. It is fitted with 14 benches and wood work tools. In addition to the instruction In wood working, soldering, forging and harness repairing are taught." Speaking of the keeping of cost of production records. Professor Burley citesthe case of one of the boys enrolled in the course who rais ed Kanred wheat last year. He grew a crop of eight acres. His work showed a profit of $96.50 after al lowing himself $30.00 for his own labor and the rent of the land. An ther boy made $51.22 after paying himself $13.40 for labor in the grow ing of nine acres of-corn. One of his fields yielded 60 bushels per acre. In the growing of corn the boys are taught the best methods cosistent with better yields. They select their seeds in the field and store it properly and carry out other recognized practices. In other words, they learn by doing. The farm shop work which Is carried on, is made as practical as possible. There have been cases where students taught manual train ing or other shop work were given problems which . were not of any particular value. At the Nehawka "hool among the things which are made are waiion tongues, bread boards, book ends, hog troughs, gates scoop boards and A-shaped hog hous es. They are also taught how to repair various farm implements. Spring is Soon Mere Grass and Clover Seeding can now be done.
