Ventilation OF School Houses.

We have never before been 80 thrnu.sAly
impressed with the wrrtchtd ventilation
OF large majority of our school houses -
during the past year. VERY MANY teachers
do not SCENE 10 realize that their school
rooms are reeking with filthy olpr~ and
poison. We DO not know that our olf.cio-
ry nerves are any more acute than tho>. Of
other people, but we have frequently been
compelled to 20 to the door to breath
some fresh air. 80 foul was the air In the
school room.
School houses III oldcn time. that had
large fireplaces in them. secured excellent
ventilation. \ strong current of air was
rapidly passing up chimney from the room.
which was immediately replaced By era K +,
and crannies ali over the room with fresh
air. But box stoves have shut out all this.
and now the air is breathcd over and over
again till feeble children ore made more
pale and feeble, and the robust complain
OF headaches by having their blood poi> on
ell from impure air.
Some school houses yentilatc hy drop-
ping the windows at the top. his ! a
good way, but not the best way if used
alone. In many school rooms the TOP
OF the window j. below the top Of the
room. and there will be severa. hogshcals
OF impure air lodged in the upper par; oil
the room that will not escape from The
windows. but refrain in the upper part of
the room, aud a. soon A. they are closed
VIII soon be dffused with the air In the
lower part OF the room. Children cannot
study in such an atmosphere. nor can a
teacher interest his school long in that
condition.
Some of the finest school houses In the
State have put regulators in the walls and
chlmnevs. for ventilating the rooms. This
plan works well in cold weather or when
the wind blows. but is almost useless in
warm and calm weather.
The only plan that is really efficient is a
large ventilator or scuttle over head
open this. and thirty or forty hogshead of
impure air will pass out in a few minutes
without exposing the school TO discomfort.
We invited an agent into an school house
recently. where the ventilation was poor
and he was so impressed with the condition
OF things that he had large scutle made
overhead ut once. 1t may be so construct
ed that boys will not climb through into
the attic. lf the stove pipe runs horizon
tally through the room, it may be placed
directly over that.
We trust the public will wake up 10 the
importance of having wcll-ventilated
school houses. where it can be done at SO
trifing an expense. Teachers should be
agents and committees to have pure air in
their school rooms as much as possible.
A room may be warm, vet have good air;
it may be cold and yet be foul. Children
in the country, especially, should not be
debilitated for the want of pure air so
long as can be had for the asking. We
fear that, if the truth was known, the seeds
Of disease are sown in the constitutions Of
our children from the causes we have just
specified, to an extent that would surprise
us. r.

Home Farm and Garden.
MEETING A THOUSAND HENS.


With a flock Of 900 fowls at least six
acres are requisite. Some have given
this rule, an acre to each hundred. This
area should be fenced in with boards or
pickets, and houses erected, large
enough to accommodate 100 fowls for
roosting, shelter from storms, and Law
ing. Its not essential that these houses
should be expensive, but they should
face the South, and the fronts should be
partially or entirely glazed. The
glazing should be by sashes, which may
be opened easily by hinges above. aud
may be left open through the summer. TO
permit free circulation of air The
care OF these houses should I've inirustcd
to capable person. as on their proper
management the success of the poultry
largely depends. In addition TO the
poultry house there should provided
numbers OF low sheds. beneath which
the fowls may take shelter from the heat
OF the sun or from s.olms.
Care should be taken to prevent the
ingress of yermin, skunks, weascls. &C.
to the grounds one or more good dogs
should be confined within the enclosure.

THE Portland Argus. speaking of the
ate election in New York city, says:
MANY people affect To think it very
strange because the metropolis Of the
countrywide very centre OF its education

Democratic votes u one Republican.
But these people discover nothing wrong
in the backwoodsmen OF Vermont throw
ing three Republican votes to one Dem
ocratic. 1t simply proves that the greater
the culture and refinement; the more men
are taught TO fear God and love their coun-
try the stronger their devotion 10 pure

ton for the belief that they ever use it.
probably lies in the fact that the bees will
gather the sugar settled in the bottom OF

that il j only the sugar | never could
detect them carving OF one drop Of liquid

BEST TINE TO PAINT HoUsEs.-Experi-
menfs show that paint or surface ex-
posed to the sun, viii. be much more
durable if applied in autumn or spring,
than if put on in hot weather. In cool
weather, it dries slowly, forms hard
glossy coat, tough like glass, while if
applied in warm weather, the oil strikes
into the wood, lesving the paint so dry
that it is rapidly beaten of by rains.
