schools for the dissemination Of valuable
truths gathered from the fields Of expert
cnce, and preserved by this means for the
instruction Of all who are to come after.
SO important are they regarded that
many Of the State Bureaus Of Agricul-
turc are encouraging their formation in
every part of the country. If the farm
ers could once become interested in them
and have collection Of books on agri-
cultural subjects, the benefits that would
flow from them would be visible in the
Increased SOCIAL onioyments Of that most
valuable class Of the community.
Generally, farmers have but a few So
cial pleasures. Their business is one Of
segregative character, separating those
engaged in it TO a distance too great,
usually, to indulge in such cnjoymcnts.
They work harder and enjoy fewer Of the
comforts and luxuries of life than any
other class. Association begets hberality
Of views and somdness of principle. A
farmer in this age must let his thoughts
60 beyond the limit of his enclosures.
He must become part of the great liv-
ing world, or else he must become its
dupe. He must either move with the
current or the current will overwhelm
him. No way has heretofore been sug-
gestcd by which he can give out his
strength or experience so effectively as in
the social gatherings of the clubs. One
Improvement in their management only
we would suggest Let more be written.
Men think more when they write. They
will gather many more facts and these
facts will be better grouped and of more
benefit to the learner. AT least four es-

vious meeting. disqualification of these
essays will stimulate the pride of their
authorsand encourage them to still higher
efforts. Union and American.

A Remarkable Calculation.

In the year 1915, Elkanah Watson, a
friend of Benjamin Franklin, made pub
lie calculation as to the population Of
the United States for each decade up to
the year 1900.
The closeness with which his predic-
tions tally with the census reports up to
1870, is somewhat wonderful. His esti-
mate for 1870 was very muchly disturbed
by the war.

GREELEY's NAME ON DEFAULTR' S
BOND For $4,000. p ostmaster Jones, of
New York, tells good campaign story
for Horace Greeley:
Some time ago one Norton, Cashier of
the Post Office, turned out as defaulter,
and the United States government came
down on his securities, among whom was
Horace Greeley, responsible to the extent
of about thirty thousand dollars. Greeley
was very FESTIVE under this obligation, and
he is so much in fear of debt that he &C
tually wanted to give bis check for the
whole sum and get it of his mind. Final
ly meeting of the endorsers was held,
and Mr.. Greeley put on his spectacles,
took up his bond and dolefully read over
the conditions.
They say write an Internally bad
hand" said Greeley, shut they can read it
plain enough when it gets on one of these
things"

1t is curious fact, disclosed by the
recently published mortality tables Of the
Census Bureau, that under the two heads,
death by suicide and death by alcohol,
the ratio Of the former 10 highest and
that of the latter lowest in the States
where the sale of intoxicating drinks is
rigidly prohibited ; while in those W here
the sale is free, it is reversed. That is TO
say, more men shoot, hang, poison, or
drown themselves where they are pre-
vented from running themselves through
with whlskey that when they are allowed
the latter mode Of coming to their inali-
ty. Also it appears that, taking the two
modes of selt.destruction together, the
ratio is higher in the probationary than
in the free communities. This, of course,
teaches nothing against the temperance
apostleship; the mission of which is to
reform people without regard to con-
sequences

FARM SEAsoNs.-It is somewhat diff
cult to decide which is the most impor
tant season on the farm, the Fall or Spring
To the careful and ever watchful farmer
no one time Of the year should have
8reater importance than another, yet it
Is the nature of most farmers, however
careful, to be more or less spasmodic-to
have seasons of work and rest. Such
persons invariably fix upon some season
or time as calling for greater exertion
to one the Fall of the year appears most
important, as the tools must all be care
fully laid away and the Winter supplies
gathered in to another the Spring, be-
cause upon the nature of preparations
then depends the fate Of the years crop
The truth is that both are right, because
every farmer should in the Fall think
that season the most important, and when
the Spring comes should then give it the
preference. The old love off, take the
new love on, and give the last in sight
the preference. such course will re
suit in perpetual vigilance, and will reap
a rich reward in farm tools always in
good order, farm perfectly titled, and
large crops.-N 7. World

ANOTHER UNIVERSAL EXPO
SITION

The success of the great French Indus
trial Exposition, few years ago, was so
marked that another, similar IN charac :
ter, has been projected The initiati We
was taken in the new enterprise by the
National Society to Encourage Industry,
and the Exposition will be held at Paris
in july next, under the patronage Of the
French government. The movement
meets with favor from all quarters. The
managers, according to one of our dail y
papers, have appealed to Chicago, and
hope that the dep.orable catastrophe of
which the metropolis of the West was q
victim, and which found in France so
sympathetic an echo, will not prevent
her from taking part in this Exposition,
which promises to be both brilliant and
interesting.
AS is stated by the Tri6une, Chicago
could take high rank there by sending
her cereals, sailed meats, agricultural
implements, steam engines, plans of the
new hotels and other buildings now
erecting, Photographic views of the city
before and after the fire, and thus prove
to Europe her activity IN untonquerable
energy. Mr.. P. Niboyet, Consul of
France, and Mr.. De Belloy, of the Board
of Trade, and Chairman of the Local Elk
hibition Committee, will be happy to
furnish to exhibitors all necessary infor-
nation, and to acquiat them with the re-
duced rates allowed by the French
transatlantic steamers, and the French
railway companies, to all taking part in
this Exposition.

HOW TO MAKE A BRICK OVEN.
From the Manufacturer and Builder.

From the Manufacturer and Builder.
Many housekeeper, especially far
mer's wife, longs for good old-fashion-
ed brick oven, especially when there
are several lOaves of bread and dozen
pumpkin pies to bake at once.
A brick oven built in the old style,
cut of doors, entirely separated from the
dwelling house, is more safe, so far as dan
ger from fire is concerned, than if built
by the side of the fire place in the house
4 good brick oven for baking bread, pies
and cakes, is worth all the ranges and
cook stoves that ore could store in his
kitchen. In such an oven everything
will be baked just right, above and below,
through and through.
After a foundation has been prepared,
let two courses of hard bricks be laid
for the bottom of the oven. Then build
the mouth and part Of the sides, until it
is desirable to begin to draw tho side in
ward, when sand or mellow earth may be
placed on the foundation and the surface
smoothed off and pressed down 70 the de-
sired form Of the oven. Now let the
brick work be built over this form Of
sand. Let two courses of hard brick be
ldIu over tue form Win Ene DeSG OF mOf =
tar. After the last bricks is laid, the
sand may be removed.
The bricks should be soaked for sever
al hours in water previous to being laid,
so they will absorb the moisture of tho
mortar until it has set. Such an oven
will cost but few dollars. Many peo
pie can collect a sufficient number of
losse brick and pieces around their dwel
lings to build an oven. Besides this any
intelligent man, though only half me
chanic, can build such an oven about as
we'll as q mason.

FREAKS OF CUPID AND MAMMoN.--
Coleman T. Robinson, Wall street bro
ker, having amassed splendid fortune
and bought palace at Brewster station,
Weschester county, fell in love with 8
C hid daughter Of Mr. Little of Carmel,
and proposed marriage, but was rejected.
He pressed his suit upon the ambitious
father, and was promised the paternal
consent if he would Will the bulk of his
fortune to the child. Afterward Robin
son took duplicate Of his real will 10
Little's house and destroyed it. Next
day he went on spree, was thrown from
his carriage and soon after lay on his
death bed. He sent for the child to nurse
him, but her father would not consent
except on condition of marriage. To
this Robinson agreed, and the ceremony
was performed. Within twenty. four
hours he died. After the funeral the
Littles installed themselves in the Rob
inson mansion, but soon relatives appear
ed with the real Will and ousted the fam
lily, giving the child-widow only the pi
ano, which her husband of day had
given her on his death bed. A dispute
was kept up until settlement was eff
fected, the Robinson relatives giving
young Mrs. Robin on $500 year.

A LOCOMOTIVE PICKS UP A MAN FROM
THE TRAcK-On Saturday evening, as
the Worcester passenger train for Prov
idence had just passed Woonsocket, the
engineer saw man suddenly step on the
track in front of the locomotive, who was
instantly struck by the cow catcher. The
train was stopped as soon as possible, and
search was made for the unfortunate man
on the track in the rear of the train. Not
finding any traces of the accident, the
search was continued, and his body was
discovered lying partly on the cow catch
er and partly on the bunter beam. No
bones appeared to be broken, and, ON be-
ing rubbed, he gave signs of conscious.
ness, and planning of his legs feeling
stiff, gave the name of John Winterbot-
tom, of Manvi!le The experience was a
fearful one, and it is wonder the man
was not instantly killed. It is supposed
that just as the up train was just coming
in sight, he became confused, and stepped
upon the track of the down train, Instead
of getting on one side Of the road. Con
ductor S. S. Mowry obtained medical as
sistance for the sufferer, and left him as
comfortable IS could be expected.

A Fowl OBsTRUCTION.-A late number
of the Des Moines Gowa) Register says:
GA singular case Of railroad obstrnc
tiOn, and one for which no remedy is pro-
Vided by the statutes, occurred few
evenings since on the Valley road in
Greene county. Conductor Livipgston's
train, wien about three miles this side Of
Grand Junction, in passing through some
low country and near pond, ran into an
immense focS of swan, brandt, geese, and
other wild fowl. The birds were just
about to alight on the track as the train
drew near. Their number was so great
that the sky was filed with them, and
those above pressing down on the lower
strata forced them to aligbt on the car
tops. The engine, tender and cars were
covered with the fowls, and some even
chung to the bars OF the cowcatcher. One
stately swan had wing injured in the
crush, and found a resting place on the
headlight, from whence ne was taken by
the englnee The bird, however, man
aged to escape from custody near Perry,
and jumping from the tender where he
had been tied, disappeared in the grass.
The rain continued several minutes, quite
number of the aerial array being run
over by the train, and some half dozen
being captured by passenger and train
men. As soon as the birds on top Of the
flock began to understand the situation
they scared away, followed by the entire
coqey. Livingston says it was the biggest
crowd of dead-heads that ever tried te
