Excerpt from A Brief Course in Rural Economics and Rural Sociology
The cordial reception given the first edition of this little book has made a second edition necessary. Some changes, which in the light of class room use seemed advisable have been made. Many topics have been treated more fully, a few that were not in the first edition have been included, and a few others have been omitted entirely. A course of study adapted 7 to eighth grade pupils in rural schools has been added. In mak ing use of this course of study in a rural school it is suggested that the topics be taken up in connection with the work in his tory, civics, geography, etc.
This book is intended as an introduction to the study of rural economics and rural sociology. It has been prepared to meet the needs of rural teachers and pupils in rural schools. In no sense is it a scientific treatise. It will have served its purpose if it leads its readers to a further study of the great movements making for the betterment of country life.
