Book Description
Excerpt from Field Crop Production: A d104-Book for Elementary Courses in Schools and Brief Courses in Colleges This book is intended to supply in convenient form general information regarding the subject of field crops, for use in agricultural schools and in elementary courses in colleges. It is in no sense a complete or exhaustive treatise on the subject, such as would be desired for regular college courses in field crops. In the author's judgment, the most effective method of presenting the subject of field crops to students in elementary courses is by the combination textbook and lecture plan, the textbook to furnish basic information, and the lecture to include such specific information as the instructor cares to give. In very elementary courses, the textbook would probably furnish the principal source of instruction. In presenting the subject of field crops to students of short or two-year courses in agricultural colleges, it is necessary, on account of the vast amount of experimental data which is accumulating and constantly changing, to devote a large part of the time allowed to the course to information of this sort, which leaves but little time for presenting the more elementary phases of the subject. A more complete and satisfactory course can, in the author's opinion, be given if the student by the aid of a general textbook can acquire these elementary facts outside of class hours.

Book Description
Excerpt from Crop Production an Agricultural Text for Schools The art of agriculture is based upon the production of crops. Consequently, it seems highly desirable that the study of agriculture should be begun by a general survey of the field of crop production. By such a survey the student acquires a general knowledge of the many kinds of crops grown in America. He is thus able to supplement by a broader view the knowledge gained in the comparatively narrow field of personal experience. In this book the attempt has been made to carry out consistently a method of teaching which has led to successful results through many years of use. It is a combination of the laboratory and the project methods in which personal experience with real objects precedes the study of each crop considered. So far as possible these laboratory and project outlines are made so simple that they can be carried on in connection with any school. While the book is especially intended to meet the needs of the Junior High School, it should also prove serviceable in other schools. The book furnishes the teacher with an abundant series of simple directions for work for each pupil to follow out before taking up the study of the text. The latter gives the most essential facts concerning the characteristics, history, culture, varieties, and enemies of practically all our crops. There are in addition many charts which show the total production of the various crops in the world as a whole, as well as the production in the United States and in special states.
