, At the meeting of the Virginia State Teachers' .^sociation and affiliated organizations in November, 1906, the teachmg of agricul- ture in the public schools was widely and thoroughly discussed and President Alderman, of the ITniversity of Virginia, m the closing address of that great meeting, declared that among the things which should be considered as settled in the campaign for a l)etter school system now being actively carried on in that State was that agricul- ture in some form should be... generally taught in the schools. At the annual convention of the National Educational Association held at Asbury Park, N. J., in July, 1905, elementary agricultural instruction was a prominent subject of discussion, and such instruc- tion was favored in the annual address of the president, Dr. A\ illiani H. Maxwell, superintendent of schools of New York City, delivered to thousands of teachers at th.> opening session. The committee on mdustrial education in schools for rural communities, appomted two years before, brought in an elaborate report, in which it mauitamed - that the rural schools, which train nearly one-half of the school popu- lation of this country, should recognize the fact that the major portion of their pupils will continue to live upon the farm, and should pro- vide specific, definite technical training for them for the activities ot farm life It adduced strong arguments in support of this position and emphasized the educational value as well as the practical utility of courses of study framed with this end in view.
