Isn’t it odd how things “dovetail” together sometimes in the most eenie ways? Last week, even while I was writing about boys and farms and their relations to each other, there was being brought to me in some one of Uncle Sam’s mailbags a report of what is called out west “Minnesota's Stay- on-the-Farm Movement.” This report deals with that very subject, though I had never heard, till it arrived, that any state in the union was seriously and successfully grappling with it. As | remarked | dences are very queer. Let me suggest, n passing, that the less we boggle our brains about the why and wherefore of them, the better it will be for our brains. I've had several, in the course of my brief and evil Hfe; you've had several; we've all had several. I re- member, once up on the tide-swept sands under Cape Blomidon, after other members of the party had fired oft dozens of cartridges in vain at- tempts to hit an empty “pop” bottle stuck on a twig twenty paces away, that the guide begged me to take a try. “Oh, it’s too easy,” said I in a sort of tired way. But I took the revolves, pointed it carelessly in the general direction of the tree on ‘which the bot- tle was stuck—apd blew_that bottle into everlasting smash! No one was more astonished than I. The others showed it; I did not; just put the re- volver back in my pocket and began huntine the lunch basket over for an- other sandwich. “Say,” at last broke out one big- eved Nova Scotian, “can all you Yanks shoot like tha They wanted me to “show ’em some more. But I'm not quite so big a fool as I look. I knew, bless you, that it was very doubtful if I couid hit the Dominion of Canada, twice running. So I lied—deliberately lied; told 'em there weren’t any more cartridges, though I had a whole box full all the time. And I suppose those guileless Acadians are still telling the sStory of that wonderful shot by a “bad man” from the States. Another time, when a city guest asked me, confidingly, to tell him what the weather was going to be next day, 1 answered that it was going to nain. Answered right off the bat, just like that. Never stopped to think. (If I had I should have kept my mouth shut.) Acted just as if I knew all there is to know about the -weather, and then some. And it did rain the next day; rained cats and dogs and pitchforks! You could have “knocked me down with a feather” next morn- ing when I sat up in bed and saw the real rain streaking down my windows. Why, 1 don’t know any more about what the weather’s going to be tomor- row than your next door neighbor does —or the government weather bureau. These two were sartin-sure coinci- dences of a remarkable nature in my not over-exciting life. 1 don’t know that the receipt of the Minnesota re- port about making farmers out of farm boys_was anywhere near so_exception- al’ But it came in mighty handy, just the same, to fortify my contention that there must be some way to keep the lads on the farm. It affords such a practical illustration of one way to dp ft—of one way in which it has been and is being done, that I want to run it over with you. __ It seems, after failure to secure leg- islation for the establishment of state agricultural high schools, that two school superintendents, one on the ex- treme western and one on the eastern border of Minnesota, got together and worked out plans for the introduction of the study of practical agriculture into the common schools under their jurisdiction. One of their towns has a population of 1,600, the other bf about 6,500. The superintendents secured the help of two zealous young teachers from the state agricultural college, got the school boards to lease for them sufficient land mnear by the school- houses; built and stocked handy tool- sheds and bought a quantity of seeds. Then when last spring opened the plan was explained to the children and they were asked how many of them wanted to become student-farmers. The result was something of a surprise, all ‘round. From the school in the smaller town eighty-five youngsters volunteered: from the other and larger school three hundred and forty. They included boys from every grade nad to each one, except a few of the very youngest, a piot ten feet by twenty-five was giv- en to cultivate. They went at it as if it were play, taking it up with as much glee as a new game. Each young farmer was shown how to fit his “farm,” and was then allowed to choose his own seeds, under certain gererous limitations. The whole work of planting and culti- vating was done by him. It was done well and thoroughly and with a deep interest. Boys who felt it drudgery when they were compelled to do a job of weeding at home set to upon their ‘A FARMER'S TALK TO FARMERS Things that Fappen Incidentally or Accidentally—How —Minnesota’s School Gardens—How Boys are Ac- “quainted with Exact Farming and How it Operates to Correct the Haphazard Style—Keeping Boys on odz bna' Ourselves as well as Others = between working some other fellow's land to raise some other fellow’s crops, and working your own land for you self. For, mind you, each little farmer was plainly “told at the beginning that whatever he could raise was to be his, to do what he pleased with. The sense of proprietorship was brought into play and the incentive of reward added. While each class was given a special time to work so as not to conflict with others, no limitation was put upon the amount each one might do, overtime, provided he didn’t neglect class room or home duties or interfere with oth- ers. They kept at it enthusiastically till sckool closed in June and a hun- dred and eighty-five of the original three hundred and forty at the larger school continued caring for their farms through July and August. Those who were compelled by home duties to mive up their plats when school closed turn- ed them over to others so as to save the resuits of the spring work. One little fellow in the very young- est grade, who was thought small to be able to care for so big a farm as one ten feet by twenty-five,’ was given a plot four feet by ten. He stuck by it till his crops had matured end gathered a harvest worth at retail prices $2.70. Perhaps he wasn't a proud young farmer when he raked in this small fortune! If you'll figure out for yourself the income from an acre farmed as successfully as this plot of forty square feet, you'll agree with me, I think, that he had a right to be proud. While the lads were thus being taught, greatly to their own pleasure, how to work the soil and care for the crops, they were also required to keep a strict account of all expenditures and receipts. In other words, they were taught simple ‘bookkeeping, so that at the end of the season each one knew to a cent how much he had made or lost. In several cases théir reports induced “the old folks at home,” for the first time, to systemat- ize their own work and expenditures. At one of the schools referred to & short winter course in agriculture and carpentry is now being carried on for the especial benefit of boys who have to “do chores” at home. They hold three sessions a week, lasting from 10 @ m. to 2 p. m., so that these boys need not leave home till their morning work is well out of the way, and can be back in ample time for their even- ing duties. Other towns are waking up, and at least three are reported as having already determined to adopt the plan this coming spring. News- papers are taking it up, state officials are getting interested in it, and, as the report says: “It requires no great gift of prophecy to foresee the day when such farm courses will be a part of every school curriculum in Minnesota, if not Indeed throughout the entire corn belt.” It’s perfectly plain to see how sen- sible and sasy and inexggnsive this sort of farm training is. s also clear what a_tremendous practical vai- ue it may have in_ determining the minds of boys toward a farm life. Men are only boys, grown up; and boys are only men in the making. We men don't like to work for nothing. We expect or at least hope for some profit when we sow our onion Peds. But what does the boy get out of it, what can he hope to get out of it, when he is sternly ordered out on_ the patch in the broiling sun, to weed it? About the only reward he can look for is to escape a scolding—or a thrashing. Furthermore, as we men take care of our onion beds, we compare them with others that we've observed, and our spirit of rivalry is stirred. We deter- mine that we'll have a better looking bed and a bigger crop than old Hos- kins, anyway. But what does the boy care about beating old Hoskins? Give him an_onion patch beside a dozen others belonging to his school fel- lows, and he, too, will feel the spur of competition. ' He will work to beat the other boy if it is in his boots and preeches to do it. And, if he succeeds, the income is going to be his. He feels that he is working for himself and for the particular thing his boy heart craves, but which father can’t or won't ‘buy for him. Don’t you see? It’s all perfectly nat- ural and perfectly simple. It is just taking advantage of known boy na- ture to lead the boy, not drive him, to his own good and that of his coun- try, 1. e, to a love for the farm and its ‘'work. As he grows older and big- ger he will aspire to broader fields for his activities and rivalries than those given by the experimental school plats. He will want a garden of his own by and by; then he will want a farm of his_ewn, where he can try out on wid- er lines what he has become Interested in, and where he can have ampler scope for winning profit or beating competitors. Why in heaven’s name can’t we have some of these shrewd, practical ideas developed and practiced here in the east, and not wait for the west to prove them before we even think of own little farms with a vim. You-see. it made all the difference in the world them? THE FARMER. LETTERS FROM TWO STATES. TOLLAND COUNTY. | SPRING HILL F tor Able to Resume Duties—Supper | and Social. Rev.
