There are hundreds Of tons Of hay lost
every winter among farmers By careless
feeding. We have becu astonished some-
times when witnessing the amoant wasted
around barnyards and staeks. This waste
is entirely unnecessary, and If Il was made
the rule Of every farmer never ta feed any
kind Of stock upon the ground. thousands
81 dollars might be saved annually. There
are tunes, to be sure. when the earth isfro-
zen dry and clean, but, if racks are not pro-
vided, full one half Of the time the hay will
be'dealt out either in wet snow o. mnd. and
good portion lost.
Portable racks should be used around
stacks, and their location changed every
day; the racks should be 80 constructed
that the stock can get at their feed handiIy.
and at the same time made ~ that the hay
cannot be pulled out aud trampled under
foot. - Pom. Dem.

nearly four hundred ourselves. 1t is made

The Aurora Is 4 luminous phenomenon,
which makes its appearance generally
about the poles Of the earth, but more par
ticularly about the boreol or northern
pole, whence it derives its name.
About this season of the year, at the
close of twilight, a faint light appears in
the horizon in the direction of the mag
netic meridian. The light gradually as
sumes the form of an arch of a pale yell
low color, with its concNe or hollow side
turned towads the earth. From this arch
pale streams of light shoot forth, changing
from yellow to green, and finally to a
brilliant violet purple. These rays or
rather streams of light seem to converge
to that point III the heavens which is indi-
Gated by the dipping needle.
Since the Aurora is always accompanied
by a disturbance of the magnetic needle,
and is arranged in the direction indica-
ted by the dip, and because the same phe-
uOIilcId lOllON IIS CLCLlIOdl dNtiOh u WV
tricity, it is thought to be due to e%lectri-
cal action. Such is the generally received
explanation. -
On Saturday evening, there was mag
nifcent display of this sublime phenome-
non. The northern and eastern sky was,
at times, beautifully colored by the vary
ing streams of light that appeared to IA
date from a central point in the horizon.
Many, who look upon the aurora will en-
terrain feelings doubtless akin to those
who hold the opinion that great calami-
ties are foretold by these unnatural ap-
pearances in the sky. Though science
may fail to explain them, still they are
nothing more than a necessary part of the
world in which we live.

THINGS ARE CHANGING.

few years ago, we had in our schools
but few female teachers. There was a
prejudice against them, on account, as was
supposed, of their inability to teach. BY
this means, many, who were willing to un-
dergo the labors of the school-room, met
so little encouragement that they were
compelled to abandon the idea of teach
ing. From this cause, the interest of ed
ucation has suffered greatly, for woman's
Influence in the schools is of much greater
Importance than is generally supposed.
Another idea used to be entertained,
that it was a compromise of female digni-
ty to engage in teaching. This rroneous
notion has done great mischief to the cause
of education and kept many an excellent
lady and efficient teacher out of one CT the
most useful as well as one of the most hon
orable professions known to either lady or
gentleman.
As a result of these ideas, but few ever
received an education with a view of teach
ing. Our way of thinking, induced by
a false system of education, made it I'M
favorable for ladies to prepare themselves
for any profession, especially that of the
school-room. So that now when teaching
is looked upon with favor, as being alto
gether appropriate Cor a lady, and as be-
ing one of the most useful spheres in which
it is possible for woman to employ her tai
ent, she is disposed to shrink from the po-
sition, because her mind has never been
directed to the subject, and her education
in that direction has been sadly neglected.
Our young ladies are naturally equal to
any, and, in native endowments superior
to many but are not, as a general thing,
prepared to take such positions in our
schools as will, IN the very nature of things,
soon be offered to them. Our schools
should have an eye to these facts and offer
better facilities to those who may nave
teaching in view. 1t will Tot be long I'M
til females will be teachers in most of the
schools for this, much preparation is ne
cessary, Notwithstanding their pre-emi-
nent natural abilities.
The low estimate put upon education
has given rise to the idea that any body
with any kind of training can teach school,
but such is not the case. Great prepara-
ton is required here as well as for the
the bar or any other of the learn
ed professions.
