Abstract
THIS American manual well indicates the change that has taken place in the point of view of agricultural edueationists in the United States. It has arisen since the passing by Congress of the Agricultural Extension Act of 1914, and the Federal Vocational Education Act of 1917, and is a wide departure from the old strictly professional and pedagogic view of adjusting and co-ordinating science and practice in agriculture.
