Prepare rural teachers for real-world life and work.

This course of study aims to equip teachers with practical training in nature study, elementary agriculture, sanitary science, and applied chemistry. It emphasizes aligning schooling with rural life and community needs, so students learn to foster thrift, better homes, and healthier communities.
