Abstract

During the years prior to World War U, the farmers' instructional courses held at Muresk Agricultural College during the winter vacation period were an exceedingly popular form of agricultural education. During July, 1953, a revival of these schools proved that they had not their popular appeal. Forty farmers of ages ranging from 15 to 65 years attended each of the two three-day courses, one dealing with sheep and wool and the other with pig husbandry.
