Book Description
Excerpt from Vocational Agricultural Education by Home Projects The Act of Congress known as the "Smith-Hughes Act" requires at least six months a year of "supervised practice in agriculture," either on a farm provided for by a school or on some other farm. This minimum requirement must be met by all who desire federal aid for vocational agricultural education. The home-project plan, reviewed in the following pages, meets this requirement. Plant projects, from the preparation of the land to the storage or the disposal of the products, have a natural life of fully six months. Animal projects are better for supervision, nine, ten, or eleven months a year. Typewritten and mulligraphed memoranda, also special reports and bulletins of the Board of Education, have set forth certain features of the home-project plan, from time to time, for the information of the Legislature and of those teaching agriculture in Massachusetts. They have not been prepared in such quantities, nor published in such editions, as to permit of general distribution. Special addresses and papers by the author, on one or another phase of the plan, have appeared in various publications, such as the "Proceedings of the Harvard Teachers' Association," "Transactions of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society," "Report of the Canadian Seed Growers Association," the Quarterly of Alpha Zeta, Business America, the New England Homestead, the Congregationalist and the Christian World, the School Review, the "Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education," and American Education. A hundred-page description of the plan was published in 1914, as Bulletin No. 579, by the United States Bureau of Education. Calls for information from without the state, - greatly multiplied since the passage of the Smith-Hughes Act, - and lack of available printed matter, have prompted the preparation of this book. Its chapters are chapters of experience. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
