that are this year to be made a

lined some of the plans he ha*
made These are extensive The
work here Is to be carried out on
a scale such as has never been at
tempted elsewhere Children now
in the first prude, when they uradu
ate from HI** School, will have had
twelve vears of instruction, and will
he competent ranchers and horti
culturist*
The project is to culminate. Klen

School next year of a Unw botan
ical garden. * ith propagating houses
ami ? concrete aquarium. Here, .w
soon as it can he accomplished. will
he made a collection of s|>ecimens of
everything that grows in Southern
California Mere also each pupil
as he graduates from High School
will leave a tree The trees will
he planted on the grade school
grounds by the children when they
are in the primary grades, and the
same *pe<lriens will be cared for
by them each year as they return
to their classes 1'pon their enter
ing High School the trees will be
transplanted to the High School
grounds, where they will permanent
ly remain
"The Instruction in agriculture
and horticulture In the Pasadena
schools is to I-e no sprinkling-csu sf
fair.** said Kienholts last night
"W# would not be dealing square
with the children If we did not
teach them the real thing They will
be made practical raachers
"The work la the primary grades,
will be largely nature study In
the third, fourth and fifth grades
I
agricultural ideas will be Inculcat
ed The real practical work will
begin in the eighth grade and be
carried on through the High School,
Fully as much attention will be giv
en to horticulture as to agriculture
"Of course, now that the study Is
new with all of the pupils, this
system of grade work will have to
be somewhat modified.
?"Home gardening will he made
one of the chief features of the
work The principals of the schools,
as well as the Board of Kducatlon.
have become greatly Interested in
the subject and are standing behind
it It is possible that credit will
he given the children for the work
that they do at their homes In
this rase It would be Inspected by
the teachers. Two advantages would
accrue; besides the information ac
quired by the pupil: the teachers
and parents mould be brought clos
er together, and the children would
th? kept off the street.
"There is no place In the world
?vhich is better adapted to such a
course than is this place, and i
have great confidence that won
ders are to be accomplished, The
climate is Ideal and there Is plenty
of ground.
"Toward the end of this yvar a I
large school garden carnival will
be held at which will be exhibited
the work the children shall have
accomplished. All of the schools
will unite in this carnival to make
it a large attraction. The plants
will be sold and the money applied
to some good end. Just what has
not been determined as yet. Prob
ably some of it will go to the j
pupils and some of It to improve
the conditions for the work, at the
different schools. The Board of
Kducatlon has agreed to see that
land is provided near each school
for the work, and a propagation
house sill probably later be con
structed at each of the schools "
Kienholts for the past two years
a as connected with the Ixw Angeles
school systen Previous to that he
taught botany in several eastern
colleges He will be assisted In
some of the work by Miss Charlotte
Hoak. who has been engaged In the
study of agricultural and horticul
tural growths In Southern Callfor-'
nia for the last eleven years.
