5 
fee for the entire course is twenty dollars, payable either in full 
at the time of registration, or ten dollars at the time of registra- 
tion and ten dollars six months later. No money will be refunded 
if the student drops the work, and no monetary allowances will 
be made for courses taken at other institutions, although time 
allowances will be made. 
Special stress is put upon the outdoor garden practice. This 
practice is of two kinds: (1) Practice with children. There are 
three hundred children in our outdoor garden and every oppor- 
tunity is given for the student to become accustomed to handling 
children and for working out problems connected with this phase 
of work. (2) Practice in the teacher’s garden. Each student 
has a garden of her own and works it herself, thus performing 
all gardening operations to be taught later to children. 
To those who satisfactorily complete this course a certificate 
will be given. The courses offered in children’s gardening are 
considered as a wut, and are not given separately.
