EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Boy Scouts, Boy Scout Farm, 1917," captures a group of Boy Scouts engaged in farming activities at the Boy Scout Farm. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases the Scouts working in a cornfield, surrounded by vast expanses of farmland and countryside. The sign in the background reads "Boy Scout Farm," indicating the location of this educational and experiential learning opportunity. The Boy Scouts of America, a prominent American institution, was founded in 1910 and aimed to instill values such as character development, citizenship, and personal fitness in young boys. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, highlights the organization's commitment to teaching practical skills and fostering a connection to nature. The photograph was taken by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio. The studio, which was established in 1912, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and became a leading supplier of photographs to the US Congressional Library. This particular image is a testament to the studio's ability to capture the essence of the Boy Scout movement and the spirit of rural America during this era. The photograph's title, "Boy Scouts, Boy Scout Farm, 1917," is a reminder of a time when the outdoors and agriculture played a significant role in shaping the lives of young boys and instilling in them a sense of responsibility, hard work, and adventure.
