Additional Details

A scarce and important little booklet on "gardening" for children, with the intent to serve as preparation for practical farming. Girls as well as boys were encouraged to learn how, when and what to plant. OCLC locates no copies at all, however there must be a copy somewhere since a book about this leaflet was recently published: "George Washington Carver and Teachers' Leaflet No 2" by Anne Rosenfeld (San Francisco, 1995).
