powers of endurance are still very great.
So far as we have learned, Mrs. Hall is
the Oldest person in the state.

PROLIFIC CALIFoRNIA.--According to the
late annual report of the Survey orGeneral Of
California. the wheat crop of that State for
1873 was 90 GS2. 1873 bushels, and of barley,
oats, and corn, II, 953 900 bushels, product
largely in excess of that of any former year.
From reports based on estimates made for
the San Francisco Produce Exchange, the
wheat crop of the State for 1874 is put down
at not less than 36.000,0 900 bushels, and the
harvest of oats, corn and barley at 100000
bushels. The crops of wool and grapes will
be correspondingly Increased, and the indi.
cations are that the agricultural resources OF
the State will be doubled in the next ten
years. These evidences of wealth are not
only more reliable but more enduring than
even her wonderful gold resources.

The Philadelphia Ledger does well

The Philadelphia Ledger does well in
printing the following criticism:
Our system Of school teaching, as it stands
now, is based upon textbooks" Nearly
eyerything.is made to conform to the ext
gencies of the books. "Studyins - and I" re-
citations" "questlons" and "answers,"
merit marks tor accurate memorzing, and
iemer!t marks for inaccuracies all from the
books-the<e make upthe greater part Of
what is called teaching But there is just
next to nothing worthy OF the name Of
teaching" about it. Yet this is not the
fault of those who occupy the positions OF
teucbers. 1t is the fault of the sys-
tenn which is built upon the "text-
books,'' and made to conform to
the trade in textbooks" aud is pr-
marly the fault Of those who do the lcgisla-
ton for our schoolsystem, who seem to have
no capacity for substituting system of real
teaching of knowledge that will be useful.t to
pupils in their after lives, in place of the
efie.e system of memoriZing and parrot-like
repetitlons of swords" and forms from
"text-books," which do not reach the under
standing, and most of which are forgotten IN
a few weeks or fewdays. We have known
little creatures to be stranded for twenty
four months in one of the classes Of prl.
mary, simply because they had not the
faculty to commit words to memory, and re-
peat them as answers to questions, although
they were apt enough to learn when
" taught" in another way.
