Concerning practice in language,
Prof: B. G. Northrop says: EVERY
recitation may be practically Ian
guage-drill both in terseness and pre-
cision. Let every pupil be held &C.
countable for all errors in 2pronunci-
alton or grammar occurring in the
classroom, as if they were his own,
unless he notices and corrects them
and let him be encouraged to try,
when confident that he can give any
answer in briefer or better terms than
his classmates have done. This meth.
cd keeps all on the alert, and develops
the habit of attention and of criticism
With young children, conversation
should be one Of the attractions OF
the school, as it is of the we'll regula-
ted home. 70 teach how to talk
we'll should beaa constant aim of both
home and school training. To attend
carefully, to question to the point
and respond aptly, disciplines every
faculty. Just here is one of the great
est deficiencies of American schools
compared with the best schools of
Switzerland, Germany and England.
With us nothing Of equal Importance
is so moderated as the culture of the
expressive faculties"

Col. Anthony, brother of Miss
Susan B. Anthony and editor of the
Leavenworth Times, who was shot
more than two months ago, is yet in a
critical condition. The heavy pistol
ball passing through the collar bone
and in the direction of a large artery.
The blood that flowed out was pro-
nounced arterial, and for short time
he was supposed to be dead. His
heart was still for a moment, and in
the brief interval clot of blood was
formed in the mouth of the severed
artery remaining there thirty-six
hours. Then the clot gave way, and
death was expected; but the blood
surged into the surrounding parts
without bursting the tissues, forming
sac, called by surgeons an aneurism.
At every beat Of the heart the blood
rushed into the sac, threatening a
rupture. The wound otherwise heal
ed, leaving the difficult, often impos.
sible, task of. cutting the aneurism.
The method adopted was compression,
and now the sack is very small, with
a new clot forming in the mouth Of
the artery. He is kept on low diet,
and not allowed to move much, and
six weeks more will elapse before re.
covery is possible.

The following from the Michigan
Farmer will be found useful for those
to know who have Aeeces to make up
By observing these plain rules they
will exactly meet the views Of wool
buyers, very much to their own ben
eft: esq <5s2 @
'The wool buyers prefer to have
the fleece loose, light to handle and
elastic. In Ohio, the woods of which
States are always quoted from two
to three cents higher than Michigan
woods of the same quality, the fleeces
are rolled up, not packed, and tied
across twice one way and once the
other, and hence are loose. light and
elastic: A jackson buyer, well
known, who buys large amounts o1
wool both in Michigan and Ohio
every year, tells us that he can afford
to give two or three cents more pei
pound for the woods he buys in Ohio
than those he purchases in this State,
solely because Of the difference in the
tying up in the two States as he car
get more in the Eastern market fol
woods that are putup in Ohio than
he can for the Michigan woods, and
when, IN fact, the Michigan woods
are sometimes the best in quality
The proper way, he says, is to lay thu
fleece on the table, turn in the head
tail and tanks, and roll it up, com
mencing at the tail end, tying it with
two strings to keep the roll in place
and then with one string across the
ends. This is sufficient. A fleece
thus tied is light, easily handled and
examined, and can be felt all through
1t does not require a very thorough
examination to determine whether
there is anything in it that is mo-

: COMMON SENSE IN FLOWING.

The editor Of the Practical Farmer
has the following common-sense re-
marks on the abovesubject: Teams
drawing loads on the roads get a
breathing spell on the descending
ground, while in blowing the draft is
the same from morning till night.
There is a certain number of pounds
that team can draw day after day
and not worry them, but if more be
added, even as little as fifteen or
twenty pounds. they walk unsteadily,
fret and soon tire. No amount Of
feeding will keep them in condition.
I have many plows in use ON which
it has been an easy matter to decrease
the draft twenty-6ve-pounds, and If
men had been drawing them instead
of horses it would have been done.
It must be plain to the farmer that
every pound taken off from the draft
Of his pillow is so much gained for his
horses. 1t may be done in this way !:
"For any soil except sand or gray
81, use steel plows. Their cost is
but little more, and the draft enough
less to pay the difference in blowing
twenty acres. In blowing sod the
coulter does great deal of the work
and should be kept sharp by forg-
ing at the blacksmith's and grinding
every day if necessary. Of course
it will wear out sooner, but new
coulters are cheaper than new teams.
Set the coulter in line with the pillow,
the edge square in front, with an
angle of 450 from the point to where
it is attached to the beam. When
the share gets worn out it is poor
economy to use it any longer, but re-
place it with q new one. Let the
traces be as short as will allow the
horses to walk without hitting their
heels against the whiAaetrees and
have just pressure enough Of the
wheels ON the ground to make the
pillow run steady. If the handles
crowd continually one way, the draft
is not right, and if the pillow is q good
one it can be easily remedied at the
clevis. To prevent the horses step
ping over the traces in turning, fast
en- weight of about threefourths of a
pound on the outside of each single
tree-that is, on the right end, when
you turn to the left, and vice versa.
Every observing farmer knows that
horses are susceptible to kindness
and equally so to unkindness. I
have seen horses that were working
steadily made reckless with sweat in
short time by a sharp word or a
jerk on the bit. Let your horses do
their work as you do yours, as easily
as possible, and be as willing to over
look their mistakes as you would
the mistakes of human beings"

THE WOOL MARKET,

There is still great complaints
among the manufacturers and dealers
Of the low state of the trade and the
unsatisfactory condition of affairs in
the wooden goods business. But the
overproduction which has overshad-
owed the market is pretty we'll work
ed down, and we look for better
feelings as the season advances and
trade opens for the fall and winter
supplies. As the crops are moved al
SO, much of the capital that is now
lying idle at the east will gain circu-
lation and have d tendency to give
this interest more activity. There is
a growing increase of consumption
which must have its influence, and
the very action of the wool manu-.
facturers in showing an anxiety to
get stocked up indicates that there
is future in the trade for which
they are preparing. The prices Of
wool seem to be as low as they are
liable to be this year, and with fair
resumption of business amongst the
mills our wool growers who have not
sold will be likely to get paid fol-

FARMING IN CALIFORNIA.

The other day Mr.. Barnum editor
of the Pacific Rural Press, made a re-
mark to me which I think should be
studied by every farmer who contem-
plates leaving the East for a new
home in this region. Said he: "The
farmer who comes here must be born
again he must not only learn Of
farming anew, but must learn to for
get what he had learned elsewhere :;
he must adapt himself to the condi-
lions surrounding him and till the
soil as Californians do, and not as it
used to be titled in Illinois, Indiana,
and Wisconsin"
A sum of money that would enable
one to obtain small farm in Nebras-
ka or Kansas would not be sufficient
to buy the same in California, be-
cause land is held at comparatively
higher figures here-much higher
than it is there, and with the land
one must buy the water. Again, the
expense of moving family Of even
three or four persons to the Pacific
Coast is something that cannot be
overlooked, for all along the route
from Chicago to San Francisco peo-
pie are found who gain their liveli-
hood by fleeing and extorting money
from emigrants. California can hard
ly be regarded as the poor mans par
adise. 1t may be justly described as
. place to enjoy both the comforts and
luxuries of life, after one has gained
q fair start in the world and accumu-
lated q few thous and dollars. Every
thing almost that earth produces in
II the way Of cereals, fruits and vegetac
:bles can be grown here, but it requires
a few years time, and the outlay of
4 some money, to bring these world
famed semi-tropical groves to the de-
gree Of profitable bearing. The prices
Of good farming land range from $40
to $3.50 per acre, according to the
condition Of improvement and prox-
unity to water.
