MeSsrs. Turner, Smith & Humphrey,
are the owners Of the best farming lands
in this vicinity. 1t was selected several
years since, before emigration turned
this way much, and the best land could
be had for the asking.
These lands are now offered for sale
by the firm, in lots to suit purchasers,
and upon long time. Those wishing to
invest in farming lands, will do well to
call upon Mr.. Humphrey, at his Office in
this place. A small payment down will
be required as guarantee Of good faith.
and upon the balance, time will be given
to suit the buyer. This liberal manner
of doing business will doubtless attract
many residents to the county.

TIE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL THURSDAY JULY / 1879

This Is practically the American sentiment.
And the consequences is that the lavish con-
sumner does not pay the retail merchant,
the retailer can NOT pay the wholesale
dealer, the importer can not pay his bills
across the water, everybody is in debt and
everybody is poor. No, there are a few ex-
ceptions. A small crop of miilionaires grows
up fed by the life blood OF an extravagant
and empty headed public who are only am
bilious to show who can expend the
most money for the least intrinsic value
In France, poor man admits his poverty
and proceeds on the basis OF small means.
In America, the poor man undertakes to
deny his poverty and to achieve the impos-
sibility of playing the role of sffiuence with
out the means to do it. The system is not
working very satisfactorily, and its
effects are telling badly on bust
ness. Not until there is a change,
a popular rev olution in the quality of per-
sonsl economy, viii this country see a
stable and real financial prosperity. You
may infate or contract, or do what you will
with that thing called currency, whenever
people can be found out Of debt with little
spare cash in pocket, then there will be easy
times and solid prosperity. Nothing else
will make such condition permanent.

he considers himself who gets taste
of strawberries and cream. Over
at the boarding house the land
lady knows that If she would escape q
riot there must be red show on the table,
enough to say strawberries few times dur
ing the season. So there comes once or
twice a week a diminutive saucer with a
few little berries like eggs In a
birds nest at the bottom. But,
Lord, what an aggravation. One
dish of strawberries is ruin unless you
can follow them up Nothing is good after
them. One wants some to eat AID then he
wants just few more. Why is isthat more
strawberries are not grown? II Is very
easy matter TO raise them. People seem to
take it TOR granted that because they are so
rare in quality they must
be difficult to obtain. They ought not
to be. There are very few dwelling lots
in indianapolis so small that family could
not produce a fair supply. A hundred plants
set close along the fence in a well-made
bed or in boxes, would give 100 quarts
of berries. Yet comparatively few
people think of that. Strawber-
ries, if the best varieties are selected and
She right kind of care bestowed, are GER
tain crop. This year, when the frost swept
everything except small fruits away, these
were not much damaged. The reason, ap-
parently, of the short supply is sort of a
distrust about planting them. Just now,
while we are mourning the early
departure of this crop from the
market is good time to impress the duty
of providing beforehand for a better supply.
The fruit raisers are terribly stupid about
the strawberry business. They not only
fail to raise enough; but they are, with few
exceptions, careless about the quality. One
day last week drawer Of selected berries,
large and fine, was qusrreled over, almost,
by parties who wanted them,
and they sold at forty cents per quart.
Large quantities ere shipped here
from Cleveland before the season should be
past here. These came mashed and decay
ing and are a swindle on the buyer. Yet
they are eagerly taken. 1t would be difficult
to giut the market with strawberries offered
in good order. the price might be reduced
somewhat and it ought to be, but the profits
of handling would still be remunerative.

be good thing enough for Bloomington to
be able to keep young man there paying
bis way for seven or ten years. He would
in that time disburse quite n sum in the ag-
gregate and if there were large numbers oil
students, the benefits to the town would be
considerable. There is no objection to the
plan on this ground, although it may have
something to do with the local feeling. But
there are many and serious objections TO
running preparatory department in the
State University. That one alluded to
above has force. This state, as state, has
no warrant for keeping grammar school, or
high school, to accommodate certain class,
while others are educated either by their

abuse and injustice. If students are fur

ton free, where they may pursue
a liberal and even professional education.
it is the least that can fairly be demanded
that they go there so well prepared as to do
honor to the classes admitted only on a high
standard of scholarship. But the effect upon
the university OF encumbering it with a
boys school in the preparatory studies
would be degrading to the university. 1t is
useless 70 deny it. This has been the effect
on western colleges generally in the past. A
college starts up, and If you in
spect its catalogue there will be
found, as its scholastic material.
perhaps $50 preparatory students, twenty
five freshmen, ten sophomores, six juniors,
and one senior. the whole thing a travesty
on the idea of a college which brings it into
contempt. Where is your son, sill? On, he

He is in the preparatory department. But
without this cross-questioning the inference
is always permitted that the boy is CLASH
cal student. The effect of this common
school instruction is not favorable to a uni
versity. The students at the end of the pre-
paratory course, will, in a majority of cases,
leave and never enter the university classes
at all. They go to common schools kept by
the state, get the name o. having a collegiate
education at home and stop. This is not le-

Years.
The state University.

An appeal is made by the Bloomin gtor
Democrat to the Board of Trustees of the
State University tor the restoration of the
Preparatory Department to the university
! Among its arguments on that behalf the
following statement is made:
1t is a we'll known fact that one of the princi
pal reasons urged by the Legislature against the
keeping up of the appropriations for the uni
verslty, was that large number of young men
they could not pass the required examinations
and that in nearly every Instance they had gone
to other colleges, and had been admitted.
If the above is true, it seems a little singu-
lar that the Sentinel reporters did not hap
pen to hear it. Il was urged in the legisla-
ture that the number of teachers at the
State University was very large and the
number of students very small. But t. at
is nothing here nor there. On the subject OF
admission to the university, there has been
good deal said, both In the management OF
the school and out of il. A change was
made in the curriculum of studies having
reference to the relation of the university
to the public school system, and designed to
bring the university into a contact, so to
speak, with the public high schools, so that
the pupils should be able to pass directly
from the high schools into the university.
The basis of this scnems was very plsusi-
bic idea offs symmetrical sy stem of state edu-
cation, beginning with the child, in the pri-
mary school, and taxing him through one
continuous course upward, until he is
turned out from the rostrum of the uniyer-
sity, bachelor of arts, or further, if he is so
disposed, finished lawyer, doctor, or
divine. In modifying the terms of admis-
sion to the university conforma-
bly, to this ida, the require
ments in some studies, for instance
the Greek language, were relaxed a little,
but it was stoutIy maintained by the faculty
that the standard of the course was not low
cred in the least, but rather advanced. Then
a regulation was adopted by which certain
schools designated by the authorities should
hold the power to recommend candidates
for the freshmen class who would be admit
ted on that recommendation, or certificate.
Several schools in the state were desig nated
as preparatory, and empowered to enter
their graduates, ard Especially the high
school at Bloomington was constituted
q preparatory for the university, and
teacher was supported there by the state to
tske care of those coming from abroad, and
yet needing further preparation to enter
unsversity classes. The conception of this
system was not without its attractive fea-
lures, especially in theory. Practically, it
has not amounted to much. and could not.
Of course on so short trial. 1t seems the
Democrat, which probably reflects the views
of the Bloomington people, is not satisfied.
1t asks for a preparatory school In the
university, and as part of it. In
other words, it. asks that the state
with it's funds, shall keep a high school as
we'll as university where students may go /
and prepare for college course, and after
wards 20 through the university. 1t might !
