Why Take Training?
Because it is necessary. Even if you grow up on a farm, you can learn to farm better than your father and your grandfather farmed. Something new in farming is discovered every day—new methods of treating soils, new methods of growing old crops, and new crops that can be grown profitably on old farms, new methods of planting, cultivating, and harvesting, and a thousand other new things that save labor, time, and money, improve products, secure better markets, and generally make farming profitable. If you have lost a leg or an arm you will need special training to accustom you to work with artificial appliances, and you may find it advantageous, even if you grew up on a farm, to take up some new line with which you are not familiar, some line in which your handicap will not be a handicap. But, especially if you have been disabled and have never farmed before, you will need training to make you a successful farmer in spite of your handicap. The Government will provide just that sort of training you need, and will help you find out what that training should be.
