Excerpt from Agricultural Education for Teachers Prejudice, inertia, and misgivings are everywhere gradually yielding place to the new rural education. Country communities are demanding that their schools educate in terms of rural life; normal schools are rapidly instituting and perfecting departments for the training of rural teachers; and the colleges are offering courses in rural leadership, and in the teach ing of agriculture, home economics, and farm manual training. Tens of thousands of teachers have sud denly become conscious of the new demands that are being made on them. Not all may take advantage of the facilities offered by the higher institutions of learning, while many who take brief courses in sum mer sessions feel the need of keeping in constant touch with the new ideas in agricultural education along its fundamental lines of development.
