Ag Is The Countryside Of Lzfe Agriculture is a class to prepare stu- dents for life on a farm. Bogalusa High is one of the many schools in our parish to offer Ag Classes. Agriculture is taught by Billy Passman and Rodney Brown. Classes available are Ag I, II, lll, IV and Ag Lab. Ag classes follow regular classroom procedures. Another part of the classes is the actual raising of livestock. Ag members are also taught gardening and how to use insecticides. They learn welding and meat cutting, also. Stu- dents who take Ag classes usually join Future Farmers of America. This is a club for students interested in farm life activities. FFA is just one of the many experiences offered to the agriculture student. Ag is a great learning exper- ience and gives students a very know- ledgable foundation of life on a farm. l.
