A `farmer is the `manager of a business and its success depends largely on ' himself.

He produces al- . mostjall the food he requires and enjoys a freedom and independence unknown to men in other vocations.

Work, hard times hnd low prices form the most usual topics [of conversation in the homes and the young p ople are led to be- lieve that farm ife isnothing but ldrudgery. This, she said, is an en- tirely wrong conception.` There are possibilities of real home life on the farm as in 110 other place-, for there !is no breaking up of the family from imorning-to night.

This was followed up" with another resolution urging school boards to cooperate with the: agricultural representative and `teachers in using the project method of agricultural education in rural schools and agthird resolution was adopted requesting the depart- ment of education to have a text _ book on civics and mixed farming" prepared for use in public schools. he NIL- ,_,__i_._.L,-___, __,_-_ ________;L.___'g __ ENERAL PORATION nco.
