Appendix IV. 



THE Farm Journal for November, 1908, gives the 

 following condensed list of the short courses 

 offered by the various State Agricultural Col- 

 leges: 



Specialized knowledge is the keynote of modern farm- 

 ing success. Why not give your boy or girl a chance 

 to acquire some of this knowledge? In winter there 

 will be a let-down of farm activity, and many of Our 

 Folks could, if they tried, attend one of the short agri- 

 cultural courses provided free by nearly every State. 

 In many cases the only expenses are for board, books, 

 etc., and the total cost of a few weeks' course is thus 

 very small. Many grown farmers attend these courses; 

 there is no age or citizenship limit in most States.
