316 A YEAR IN AGRICULTURE 



worked out. This should be done in addition to the regular 

 school work in agriculture, and credit for the whole course 

 should not be given until the student has completed his 

 project to the satisfaction of the teacher. 



A neat and accurate notebook record of the project should 

 be kept by the student. Full directions for the field and 

 notebook work are given with each project. 



No attempt has been made to classify the projects accord- 

 ing to the length of time required for their completion, or 

 to rank them with any credit value which they may carry. 

 The teacher may credit the student according to the nature 

 of the project and the character of the work done. 



Under the recently enacted Smith-Hughes Law, federal 

 and state aid is allowed to high schools teaching voca- 

 tional agriculture. One of the requirements of a school 

 thus aided is that each pupil shall carry on a six-months'" 

 farm project as a part of his course in agriculture. 



GENERAL PLAN OP PROJECT RECORD 



Each student should be provided with a large sheet of 



durable paper, size about 12 inches by 15 inches, upon which 



to make a chronological record of his project according to the 



plan outlined below. This should be done in addition to the 



records made in the notebooks as explained under each project.
