Why Do They Leye the Farm?
A problem that is now U-fore col
lege presidents and lVuus of Agri
cultural roliep's Is found in this
mtlon: Why do farmer boys w ho
are able to euter a collcgu or uul
verslty cIioomc law, medicine, engi
mvriiig or teaching as is profession
Instead ot preparing for successful
lives upon the farm? Nearly Ave
hundred ot the students now attend

now live on the tarm or have iciit

A poa-lhle explanation was sug

thinks our present high fchHl

to have agriculture taught In tliese
