The Country-Life Movement cioth. i2mo, 220 pages, $1.25 



This hitherto unpublished volume deals with the present move- 

 ment for the redirection of rural civilization, discussing the real 

 country-life problem as distinguished from the city problem, known 

 as the back-to-the-land movement. 



The Outlook to Nature (New and Revised Edition) 



Cloth, i2mo, ig^ pages, $1.25 



In this alive and bracing book, full of suggestions and encourage- 

 ment, Professor Bailey argues the importance of contact with nature, 

 a sympathetic attitude toward which "means greater efficiency, 

 hopefulness, and repose." 



The State and the Farmer (New Edition) cioth, i2mo, $i.2s 



It is the relation of the farmer to the government that Professor 

 Bailey here discusses in its varying aspects. He deals specifically 

 with the change in agricultural methods, in the shifting of the geo- 

 graphical centers of farming in the United States, and in the growth 

 of agricultural institutions. 



The Nature Study Idea (New Edition) cioth, i2mo, p.25 



" It would be well," the critic of T/ie Tribune Fanner once wrote, 

 " if ' The Nature Study Idea ' were in the hands of every person who 

 favors nature study in the public schools, of every one who is op- 

 posed to it, and, most important, of every one who teaches it or 

 thinks he does." It has been Professor Bailey's purpose to inter- 

 pret the new school movement to put the young into relation and 

 sympathy with nature, — a purpose which he has admirably accom- 

 plished.
