Abstract
IT is universally agreed by all who have considered the subject that the education of the child ought to have some relation to the surroundings among which its life will be passed, and that, in consequence, the education of the country school should be directly connected with country life and the great rural industry. In America this principle has long since been translated into practice—how completely is best seen by the flood of agricultural books issuing each year from the publishing houses—and we have in the first of these volumes an illustration of how it was done In a particular case.
