Abstract

This study is intended to analyze the ways and means used by the teachers of vocational agriculture of Brazos County in leading young men in becoming established in farming. The writer, after making observations in the communities in which he had taught decided that the better method of determining or evaluating the work of the vocational agriculture teachers of Brazos County would be a study of why more of the students enrolled in all-day classes in Vocational Agriculture do not become established in farming.

The subject was selected: "FACTORS AFFECTING ESTABLISHMENT IN FARMING"

This study is based on the data from thirty vocational agriculture students of Brazos County, Texas.

Brazos County is located in the South Central portion of Texas.

The students were selected from the following departments which are located in four different sections of the county, namely: Brushy, Fairview, John M. Moore, and College Station. These four communities were served by teachers of vocational agriculture.

It is believed that the selection of the students gives the writer an overall picture of the county that is fairly true.
