Show Value of Education. The question is often asked, "Of how much value Is school training to farmers from a business standpoint?" A recent agricultural survey of several sever-al townships of Tompkins county. New York, made by the College of Agriculture Agricul-ture of Cornell University has revealed reveal-ed many interesting and suggestive facts bearing upon rural sociology. To quote from the summary: "The survey sur-vey shows that a high school education educa-tion is worth as much to a farmer as $6,000 worth of 5 per cent, bonds. A college education is worth nearly twice as much." |
