Abstract:
Excerpts from the Letter of Transmittal: This paper has been prepared by Profs. W. M. Hays, Andrew Boss, A. D. Wilson, and Thomas P. Cooper and is based partly on three lines of work in the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station and in the Agricultural High School at University Farm, St. Paul, Minn., viz: (a) Investigations to determine the best methods of crop rotation for Minnesota; (b) investigations in the cost of producing farm products in Minnesota; and (c) efforts at devising methods of teaching farm organization and management, and on related work in this Department and in other experiment stations. The effort is here made to bring together some of the results of these new lines of work that they may be useful to farmers in the management of their farms, and also that the beginning may be made at bringing the subject matter of farm management into better pedagogical form, useful in teaching farm management in the rural and higher agricultural schools. It is believed that this bulletin will serve at least as a guide, if not as a text, in teaching farm management. The teachers can follow the bulletin in everything except the plans of actual farms.
