- Episode Description
- Episode 3: Today's reading: the key to the future of agriculture. On September 30th, 1859, Abraham Lincoln gave the world another opportunity to hear his prophetic words, this time in the area of agriculture. What is particularly impressive is his insistence on the need for the farmer to continue in education--for example, reading--and to continue in joining of hands with science. Science and education then are the key to the future of agriculture, according to Lincoln.
