Science as farm help
Teachers should encourage students to take up agricultural science as a career, Mr. A. F. Bell said yesterday.
Mr. Bell, Agricultural Department Under-Secretary, was addressing Queensland secondary school science teachers inspecting the department’s chemistry laboratory, during the last session of their three-day Brisbane conference.
One of Australia’s greatest needs, Mr. Bell said, was an adequate number of well-trained agricultural scientists to help farmers increase production.
Dr. A. L Reimann, Queensland University physics research professor, told the conference that teaching of physics in secondary schools should be broadened beyond the rigid subject matter of the secondary school syllabus.
