Excerpt from Harness Repairing
The development of vocational agricultural education work in secondary schools under the stimulation of the Federal Vocational Act has especially directed attention during the past few years to practical farm shop work for boys enrolled in these agricultural courses. There has been a rapid movement of this work away from the former manual training phases which characterized it in many ways in the early stages of its development. There has been an attempt to determine what tools, what constructions and what repairs are essential and desirable to the vocation of farming. It is expected that the farm shop work will involve the use of such tools as are justifiable on the farm, in such construction and such repair work as the farmer would ordinarily engage with profit.
In its first stages this work was largely woodshop work with forge work added in some places. Lately it has been supplemented by recognition of the need for harness repair work, soldering repair work and general construction and repair work involving the use of tools designed to work cold metal. Rope work is passing from the stage of many and involved knots and splices to the selection of knots and splices significant in farm practice.
The author's efforts in this book are additions to the farm shop work presented in his books "Agricultural Woodworking" and "Farm Woodwork" along the line of harness repair. Many teachers, who have seen the necessity of the introduction of work of this kind, have been at a loss as to what equipment should be provided and what exercises could find justification in the vocation of farming. The author's contribution in this book will go far in aiding the teacher in settling these questions. Many years of experience in teaching, coupled with a broad contact with the actual field of farming, make his point of view particularly sound. His technical training has enabled him to put up a body of information in this book that shou…
