CONCERNING the grasshopper raid
the Leavenworth Commercial says:
"a terrible calamity has fallen upon
us ~ stale, 1t is useless to deny. The
devastating hordes have already Wis
tied over two-thirds of the state, and
wherever they have settled everything
IL destroyed. In the southwestern tier
of counties there is scarcely vestige
of the crops left. Cotton, corn, pota-
toes, all garden vegetables, tobacco,
castor beans, and even fruit trees, have
been destroyed. The situation Is in
deed terrible. In all the new settled
counties there must necessarily be
much suffering. The farmers were de-
pending entirely on the corn crop, and
what few vegetables they could raise
for subsistence. But very little wheat
was raised, not near enough to bread
the people. In the southwestern coun-
ties there was Il considerable breadth
of cotton planted, it being n much
more profitable crop than wheat, and
this Is all gone.

valuable discoveries which have been made
In vegetable pharmacy enable MS To ooun-

botanical medicine, In which the finest an

OF the vegetable kingdom are skillmlly and
effectively combined. AT seasons OF the year
when the atmosphere is surcharged with

strange indeed that Junius was not under.
stood IN his former communication. Nothing
was said about the confinement Of students:
neither has II anything to do with the labor
OF teachers or their pay. l am for paying
them well for their services, but let them
work and show TO the world they deserve
good pay. Experience and observation have
taught me c0ncluslyely that teacher By ten
hours labor may learn a child its letters and
take 1t through the spelling book in six weeks
and through the fourth reader in five months.
know teachers who have accomplished this
much, and have not confined each child more
than two hours in the day. Brother Philoma-
thean, keep TO the question-dont scatter
1t is the teacher that ought TO so to work
He has two days out Of seven for rest any
way, and certainly he can teach ten hours Ia
a day, when It will always insure him good
school and reasonable compensation. Deaf
sir, my convictions are fixed, mean 10 con.
