Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Pig Raising: A Manual for Pig Clubs
It is for the purpose of making as practical as pos sible some of the principles of scientific agriculture for the boys and girls of the public schools, and of giving. Direct vocational value to such work that this little book, the third of a series, is submitted. The plan outlines one project in each booklet, supplying the pro ject directions, practical exercises for laboratory work, subject-matter for study and recitation, and notebook forms for accounts and records. The school work in elementary agriculture for one year may be - based upon one or two projects, giving opportunity to supply new subject-matter by rotation each year; or the project method may be used to supplement the text-book method as used either in the elementary or high-school grades. In either case, the boys and girls doing the project work should be organized into a club and affiliated with the State Boys and Girls Club movement through the state leader, usually located at the State College of Agriculture.
