PREFACE

THE manual training which is offered in the rural schools, graded schools and agricultural high schools should be principally of an agricultural nature. Work of this kind has a tendency to keep the boys in school for a longer period of time. It creates a desire to use tools in making farm necessities and improving farm buildings and equipment. It develops a closer relationship between the school and the home. It trains the eye and hand and develops patience, perseverance, judgment and accuracy. It creates a desire to equip and use a shop at home. It has a bearing on making the boys want to stay on the farm.

It is with these thoughts in mind that this book on agricultural woodworking has been prepared. It is intended that it be used by the boys both at school and at home in the farm workshop as an aid to efficient farming.
