1909.] Agricultural Education in England. 531 



culture and Fisheries will comprise institutions of two 

 types : — 



(a) Those whose predominant purpose and work it is to 

 provide comprehensive courses of Agricultural In- 

 struction of an advanced nature, of which the proper 

 benefits can only be received by students who, on 

 admission, have received a satisfactory general edu- 

 cation, whole-time, up to the age of 17 (or there- 

 abouts), or later, or who have otherwise obtained a 

 preliminary education of a similar standard. Each 

 such institution should serve more, usually consider- 

 ably more, than one Local Education Authority's 

 area. 



(h) Institutions restricted to one special section of Agri- 

 cultural Instruction (e.g., Forestry, Dairying, Cider- 

 making), the main purpose of which is to provide a 

 course of specialised teaching in that subject on such 

 a plane as will equip those who pass satisfactorily 

 through it to be competent Instructors in that section 

 of Agricultural work in Agricultural Institutions or 

 as local Instructors in all parts of the country. 

 Government Grants will thus be paid by the Board of Agri- 

 culture and Fisheries in respect of their agricultural work to 

 the following Institutions, and to such others as may in future 

 be found to be of a similar character or on the same educa- 

 tional plane : —
