, Iours asking the result ofmy experiment with
MSgnum Bonum is to hand.
The Fertilizer was applied to corn at planting,
May 9Th, with machine, (wheat drill, with all
tubes but two removedJ depositing same with
seed at the rate of so poands per acre. On June
18th was applied broadcast of same manure two
working of corn. The first application acted
finely. causing the crop to push with ~ vigorous
growth second to none, considering the dfferencee
rs to time in favor OF its competitors. The second
to suffer for rain was entirely satisfactory in its
results, producing Il steady, rapid growth and
development throughout the season, and full
remuncratiye return at gathering. The Magnun
Bonum ranks among the best manures ever used.
Respectfully, j. .. MCGEBEE, Manager.

much to be learned in seeing the world
and We would. By no means, deprcca,e the
enlargement of mind which comes by
travel; bu, the natural place for children
is home, and their best society that Of
their parents aud brothers and sisters.
The teacher Of boarding school has the
double Office Of teacher and parent, and,
however well he may fill the former, it is
impossible for him to fill the latter to the
perfection which the parent can, and often
does. Attain. The child almost knows in
sline,iyely that the love Of parent Is
disir,cres,ed, that his advice is without
any selfish motive, and that his command
must be obcysd; he, therefore. trusts his
