The accomplislimeiit of the work is due in no small 

 degree to the endorsement of the plan by the New Jersey 

 State Board of Agriculture and the New Jersey State 

 Grange, as well as their hearty co-operation with, and 

 cordial appreciation of, all genuine efforts made in behalf 

 of agricultural education in the public schools of the 

 State.
