Make a study of the soil, and learn how to plant, to cultivate, and to gather in the harvest.
“What is needed is schools to educate and train the youth so that they will know how to overcome this condition of things. There must be education in the sciences and education in plans and methods of working the soil. There is hope in the soil, but brain and heart and strength must be brought into the work of tilling it..."
-The Advocate August 1, 1900 par. 8
