DISCUSSION PAPER 



A supplement called the discussion paper is sent with each Reading- 

 Course lesson with a view of assisting the reader to examine and improve 

 his present methods of farming. The discussion paper also aids in review- 

 ing important points in the lesson. The answering of the questions is 

 optional, but a majority of readers accept this opportunity for addi- 

 tional work. An expression of the reader's experience or opinion is one of 

 the best ways of converting into working knowledge what has been read. 



New readers should enroll in one or more of the following series of 

 Reading-Course lessons: the soil, poultry, rural engineering, faRxM 

 forestry, the horse, dairying, fruit-growing, farm crops, stock- 

 feeding, vegetable-gardening, plant-breeding. The first lesson in 

 each series desired is sent on enrollment and subsequent lessons are sent, 

 one at a time, on the return of discussion papers. Persons who wish to 

 continue to receive Reading-Course lessons should sign and return the dis- 

 cussion paper sent with each lesson. Each discussion paper returned will 

 be read over carefully and a personal reply will be made when help can 

 be given. The Reading-Course will endeavor to aid in the solution of 

 farm problems and in the organization of Reading-Course clubs, and to 

 give references for advanced study. The space below on this page is reserved 

 for correspondence concerning Reading-Course work and also for names and 

 addresses of any persons likely to be interested in the course.
