It is reported that a certain school of theology requires the embryo preachers to take thor ough course in agriculture as one of the requisites for graduation. Why not? A majority of the graduates will find their way to country congregations where the members are nearly all engaged in farming, and, we ask, what better training could the young pastor have than that which would at once open the way for the most cordial relationship with h'3 people? WThat other influence could he exert that would be so rseful as that of being able to elp them in scientific farm op erations? It would at once make him "one of them." His trained mind could solve mysteries that men go long ways to hear dis cussed at occasional lectures.
