DISCUSSION-PAPER ON FARMERS' READING-COURSE 



BULLETIN NO. 47 



ADiscussion-paper is sent out with each Bulletin of the Reading-Course 

 for Farmers for two reasons: (i) We should like to have your ideas 

 on the subjects. On some of the points you have probably had experi- 

 ence that will be interesting and valuable to us. No matter what the 

 Bulletin says, if you have a different opinion on any of the subjects, 

 do not hesitate to state it on this paper and give your reasons. (2) We 

 should like you to use this paper on which to ask us questions. If 

 there are any points which the Bulletin has not made clear or if there 

 are any problems in your farming, whether on these subjects or others, 

 on which you think Ave may be able to help you, write to us on this 

 paper. 



The next Reading-Course Bulletins will he sent to those who return to 

 us this Discussion-paper, which will he acknowledgment of the receipt of 

 this Bulletin. This paper will not be returned to you, but we shall 

 look it over as carefully as we would a personal letter, and write to you 

 it there are any points about which correspondence is desirable. You 

 may consider this Discussion-paper, then, as a personal letter to us. It 

 will be treated as such, and under no circumstances will you be quoted. 

 As the Discussion-paper will contain written matter it will require 

 letter postage. 



If you are not interested in this Reading-Course Bulletin, we have 

 others on other subjects, and we shall be glad to send any of them to 

 you on request. The titles of the nine series of the Reading-Course 

 Bulletins now available are: i. The Soil and the Plant. 2. Stock Feed- 

 ing. 3. Orcharding. 4. Poultry. 5. Dairying. 6. Farm Buildings and 

 Yards. 7. Helps for Reading. 8. Miscellaneous. 9. Breeding.
