"The legislator voted for this law. no doubt thinking it would be a means of a- roving the farms of Georgia; but the modern educator believes that it will serve t only for the improvement of the farms of Georgia but also for the improvement the hoys of Georgia: he sees not only a practical but also an educational value in i. \ einent: he sees a movement which answers to the sociological demands of exiuca well as to the psychological.’’ rV lowing this law of 190S. and following this address of 1905. tliere was a great ' of discussion of agricultural education.
