obe boy or girl in hu.dred has practical

Of Botany, combined with Investigations in
the vegetable kingdom; the study Of Med
icine, accompanied with experiments on the
human system; the study of Astronomy,
with the aid Of the telescope; the study of
Grammar, and IFS practice in speaking and
pniting;-all these are illustrations Of our
meaning. 1t is also possible to study Geo.
graphy in the same practical way, and the
school is not properly conducted that does
not follow the improved method.7 We allude'
to Globes and Charts, the latest and best Of
which are Perce's Magnetic Globes and OBJ
jects and Guyots Charts. These are used
extensively in the best schools in the conn
try. The Globes are Of Iron. and the OBJ
jects furnished with them comprising men
and animals, ships, &C., adhere to any part of
the surface of the Globe, either when il is
standing still or revolving. They illustrate
the principle ofgravitation, and have be-
sides numberless uses. There are two sizes
of the Globes, large and small, and ten of the
charts. Our space does not permit Us to
explain these Globes and Charts particu-

far hack as l can tracs them. Ny opin-
ions are formed on experience and exper-
iuents that satisfy me, whether they do
others or not. The best way to raise
calves is 10 take them from the COW as
soon as dropped; ifpoasible never let them
suck, as they learn TO eat or drink sooner,
there are no sore tests from biting, and the
task Of Besning the cow from the calf is
soon over. put thsm IN place where
they will be sheltered from the sun and
rain, give them good bed of straw, and
feed them three or four quarts Of new
milk per day until three weeks old, then
feed them skim milk warmed. Let them
have access to hay or grass. yothis
method, l have raised calves evry since /
can remember, and never lost one in my
life.
Nine-tenths Of our farmers do not SOW
enough hay-seed to the acre. I have
kept increasing the amount, and have not
found a stopping place. The more seed
the more and better hay; if timothy and
clover, up to half bushel each per acre.
If the.surface of the ground is completely
covered, the hay will be fine, and no
weeds eau grow Ihave choked out Can.

back so as to form a good, firm sod the

Cooking food for hogs is better than
doubling the same amount of raw materi-
al, if you wish to fatten. For breeding
feed lightly.
Potatoes are worth more, for all kinds
of stock, than most farmers think they
are. If you can have them frozen and
cooked before they thaw, the starch is
changed TO sugar. and know of no food
that will fatten faster, or give a better
flow of milk.
In fattening beef cattle with corn meal,
never feed so high that you can see OF
smell the effect of il IN the excrement, fol-
if you do you may be sure you are losing
