Chalk for stock.

When an animal is found licking his.
fellow, it is proof that uneasiness is
present in the stomach, and the licking
of his neighbor is a habit contracted
by instinct, with view Of removing
the unpleasantness. Unfortunately,
instinct is not at all times sufficient to
avoid dangerous practices, and if we
take for granted that the stomach is at
all times fully charged with acrid mat
ter, we shall without hesitation find
remedy. 1t is only necessary to place
within their reach shallow tToughs, In
which is kept a supply of common
chalk If an animal has superabund-
ance of acrid secretion, it will most
certainly swallow some of the chalk,
which will as certainly neutralize the
excess of acrid. If an animal has not
acrid in excess, and partakes of chalk,
it will do no harm. 1t is often too late
to administer remedies to young stock,
and the placing of chalk within their
reach cannot be made too early.

THE TEACHER.

Whatever may be said in favor or q

harrassing labor both in and out of the
School ROOM. In many places, he is a
teacher, School Commissioner. and Board
OF Education. The teacher may be will.
ing to do all these things, but is it right
If a teacher faithfully discharges his
duty in the school room, he must have
time to prepare himself for the ~exhausting
labor which he is called upon to perform.
A teacher should not object to doing any,
thing in his neighborhood to advance the
cause of education, but every moment
taken from his school-room study is that
much lost to the neighborhood.
We doubt very much whether any class
In the community does as much actual
labor for the same amount of money as

he can not live on that. His board costs
as much as any body's. His expense is as

With his expenses?

FUND.

AS much inquiry is made about thi
fund, a few words may not be out of place
Ungraded schools are not assisted. The
entire expense of the school is not paid b,
the Peabody Fund in any case. The oh.
ject is to aid the people where they are
willing to help themselves. The enroll
ment of One Hundred pupils will not
secure th&sfund, but the people must
raise twice as much money at least as they
expect to draw from the Trustees of the
fund. In many cases, the want of asuit-
able school building binders the people
from complying with the conditions
There is a desire to divide the school in
such places and have it taught in different
localities. The object of the Trustees is
to build up permanent and growing
school in the towns and thickly settled
sections, but not to aid small ungraded
school.
When it is possible for any district or
to comply with the condl-
lions, it is desirable that such should bel
done. A few good schools in. the country
will soon convince the people of the pro-
prlety of raising by taxation a common
fund for the support of common schools.
We want Washington County to have
is many schools as possible comply with
he conditions required by the Trustees of

The Storm.

A severe storm prevailed in the North
Western portions of Greene, Washington
and Sullivan counties, last Thursday. at.
tended with heavy rains. At this point
we had a gentle shower of an half hours
fall. In tie neighborhood of Limestone
Depot, the streams were much swollen and
swept away an immense amount of fen
cling. A mile below the Depot on the
farm of Mrs. Elizabeth Gillespie, a rail-
road culvert was washed out. The break
was discovered by the section master, who
warned an approaching freight train of
the danger, but the engineer not fully un-
derstanding his motions only checked the
tram. The engine turned down the bank
by three cars. Fortunately. no
one was injured and the damage slight.-
a track was built around the obstruction
md only one connection was lost.
