DISCUSSION-PAPER ON FARMERS' READING-COURSE 



BULLETIN No. 31. 



This Discussion-paper is sent out with all Farmers' Reading-Course 

 Bulletins, for two reasons: (i) We should like to have your own ideas 

 on these subjects. On some of these points you have probably had 

 experience which will be interesting and valuable to us. No matter what 

 the Bulletin says, if you have different opinions on any of these subjects, 

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

 We should like you to use this paper on which to ask 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 voe may be able to help you, zvrite to us on this paper. 



The Next Reading-Course Bulletins will be sent to those 

 who return to us this discussion-paper, which will be an ac- 

 KNOWLEDGMENT TO THE RECEIPT OF THE BULLETIN. This paper will 

 not be returned to you, but we shall look it over as carefully as we 

 would a personal letter and zvrite to you if there are any points about 

 which correspondence is desirable. You may consider this discussion- 

 paper then, as a personal letter to us. It zvill be treated as such, and 

 under no circumstances will your remarks be made public. As the Dis- 

 cussion-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 these to 

 you on request. The titles of the six Series of the Reading-Course Bul- 

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

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

 and Yards. The Farmers Wives Reading-Course, on domestic subjects, 

 is also sent to those who desire it.
