July is TIE month for wheat harvest in 4
large portion of the United States. Farmers
with care prepare their implements and enter
into the fields with merry hearts, anticipating
a handsome recompense for their twelve
m onths hard toll, hut here horse falls, ami
there another, and the profits of years toll
are gone The farmer had forgotten that they
had taken cola during the winter, which by
the timely use of Foutz' Horse and Cattle
Powders, purifying the blood and strengthen
ing the system, would have been prevented

whole texture Of Life.

A cheerful face is like the sunshine
coming across the hills in the morning,
smiling a bright good-morrow to the
gladdened flowers, or flecking the tree
tops with it's full born glory, or glori-
flying the fields with a golden good
night as it sinks into the valleys. The
successful teacher is not the cold and
repulsive one, with a stern, gloomy
face, but the loving, cheerful, sunny
teacher, who, like the spring sun call
ing us forth to enjoy it, calls forth the
minds energies.
The most skillful teacher is not the
one who communicates the most truth
to his pupils, but the one who leads
them to see the most for themselves
The faculty of communication is by
no means the most important Of the
teacher.

HINTS TO TEACHERS.

make a list of common errors and
avoid them. Keep your house neat,
quiet and well ventilated. Go to school
in season. Call school at the right
time. Have the pupils come in
promptly and quietly. Arrange your
programmes; carry it out. Consider it
as necessary for yoW to follow it as the
children. Provide enough work for
every pupil. Suppress whispering.
Secure the cooperation Of your pupils.
Lead them to see that it is for their in
terest to have good order and good
school. Require hard study from your
pupils. Lead them to love study.
Give short lessons. Give them out
definitely, so that there is no room for
mistakes. Have the lessons we'll stud
led. Require clearness, promptneBs,
and accuracy in recitation. Let not
how G1e5cb, but how 2OeW be your mot
to. DO not assist the pupils much at
recitation Cultivate their self-reli-
ance. DO not lot them help one anoth-
er. Encourage those who need en-
enlargement. Review often. Talk
but little. Speak kindly and mildly.
Be firm. Have good order, whatever
you lack. Seek to improve yourself as
teacher. Study hard. Study daily.
Try to learn more each day than you
learned the day before. Talk with the
parents about the children. They can
give you useful hints about teaching.
Urge them to send their children reg
ularly. Keep list of your plans, diff
ticulties and ways Of meeting them.
Look at it often and see if you are
carrying it out. Read upon teaching.
Adopt new methods with caution.
Hold fast the good, reach after the
better Seek to surpass yourself daily

Need Of Special Preparation on the Part
Of Teachers.

Education as an art consists in
selecting and applying the'means used
for imparting instruction and culture"
If we accept this statement as true
then it follows inevitably that this art
may be studied; that improvement
therein may be made; and that acquir-
ed skill as well as natural ability is
essential to the highest success. And
yet in practice if not in theory we
almost wholly ignore this very impor-
tant fact. A very large majority of
the applicants for certificates this
spring had never even read a SINGLE
work on teaching. In fact many seem
to think that special preparation is
wholly unnecessary that any one who
is able to obtain standing Of sixty per
cent on the few simple questions ask
cd is perfectly competent to engage in
the work of teaching. That this view
is wholly erroneous is evident from the
following considerations:
l. The teacher must have 8 true
appreciation Of the ends and objects Of
education before he can wisely select
the best means for accomplishing these
ends. This can only be acquired by
careful study Of the philosophy Of
education in all it's bearings. And not
only this but he must also have some
definite idea Of the object he would
seek TO accomplish in teaching each
particular branch of study. The aim
less sort of a way in which many do.
their work is occasioned very largely

The N. Y. Tribune says the busiest
men in Washington are the Northern
Democrats. Thier ingenuity and per-
severance in attempting to convince
the Southerners the President has bro
ken an implied obligation, that he has
" weakened in the moment Of trial,
and that his good resolutions have
been overthroWn in the interest Of the
carpet baggers, show how eagerly they
desire to prevent any peaceable solution
Of the southern problem. Their only
hope as a party rests in keeping open
the wound which the President desires
TO heal. The bloody shirt is henceforth
the banner Of the Democratic party.

WHITE RUsTAW WHEAT.

EDITORS w EsTERN RURAL:-l see
that D. S. H., Rochelle, ILL.,. would like
to here through The Western Rural,
from some one that has raised the white
Russian wheat. In the first place, I am
not personally acquainted with Mr..
StItt OF any one else who has the wheat
for sale, and have no interest in their
transactions. / bought two bushels of
White Russian wheat of Mr.. Stitt last
year. AS the season was very late and
wet, did not SOW any wheat until May,
when finished sowing my other wheat.
1t rained every day for two weeks.
When | commenced TO SOW my oats
(Which was the last week in May, and
three weeks after my other wheat was
soWn), [ soWed the white Russian wheat,
two bushels on one acre Of land for
oats and after wheat, and in poor con-
dltion for wheat. [ did not expect my
seed again. 1t was ripe one week later
than my other wheat and / threshed
from it tWentW-seven and one-half
bushels Of No. / wheat, much better in
quality than the seed. The straw was
strong and stood UP good, while my
other was badly laid and tangled, and
yielded only fifteen bushels to the acre
on ground in good condition. [ SOW
the PIX bushels this year. In my
opinion, it is much superior to any
wheat have seen, and must command
ready sale from its color and quality.
Farmers, give it trial, I think it will
meet your expectations. Yours re-
spectfully STEPHEN BURDEN.

particular value Of the subject under
consideration. Ask the average teach
er What is the object of the study of
grammar or Of arithmetic? and the
answers, in nine cases cut of ten will
be vague and indefinite. And these
same persons in their teaching will
have no particular object in view and
SO cannot be expected to accomplish
much.
2. Special preparation is made in the
realm of mind. No one can operate
skilfully upon material the nature of
which he does not understand. This is
true Of the farmer, the blacksmith, the
architect all men in all occupations.
He may perhaps labor mechanically,
may be a mere imitator, but such
course Of procedure is wholly unworthy
of those who would seek to guide the
young mind in it's acquisition of knoWl-
edge. A careful study of the several
faculties of the mind, and the natural
order Of their development is absolute
ly necessary to the highest success in
teaching.
3. Special preparation is needed in
the presentation Of the several studies.
A man may know what result he wishes
to produce, and may even have the
materials at hand with which to pro-
duce these results and yet If he does
not know how to use the materials at
hand he can have no assurance Of sue
cess. Good scholars do not always
become good teachers. Although they
may have fully mastered the subjects
themselves they have little power of
their knowledge to others.
They have not studied the philosophy
Of instruction in it's details and so often
fail in their efforts. Teachers need
special preparation in the methods Of
teaching in order that they maybe
successful in the highest degree.
4. Special preparation is needed in
school government. Government is
absolutely necessary. Pupils must be
governed before they can be instructed.
It is folly to attempt to impart informa-
ton to boy whose mind is intently
fixed upon something else.
It is also q well known fact that the
number of teachers who fail in govern
ing is much greater than the number
that fail in instructing. And this is
largely caused by want Of knowledge
Of the underlying principles Of school
management and school government
These principles must be carefully
studied in the light Of past experience
and then applied by each individual
teacher with q wise and discriminating
Judgment,
That many persons who have never
been trained in any systematic manner,
or in any manner whatever do attain a
highrank as teachers is freely admitted,
Having natural aptitude for teaching
they seem to do everything just right
and often apparently without effort.
These persons are particularly gifted in
this one direction and are invariably
successful. But their number is very
limited; the great mass of teachers
must be content to plod, to study care
fully the methods and processes by
which those of superior endowmonts
have attained success, to learn from the
failures as well as the successes of
those around them, and to gain emil
Inence, if it is gained at all, by patient
labor and lard work.

ROCHESTER,, Wis, April 6. IT.

EDITOR IELEGRAPH:- Our usually
quiet town presented a very exciting
and quite interesting appearance last
Tuesday. The election was one of un-
usual bitterness and every inch of
ground was fiercely contested. The
whisky Democracy (and few repub-
licans) found themselves on their last
legs and resolved to die hard One of
their tricks was a bogus republican
ticket which stole them some twenty
odd votes for chairman, from unsus-
pecting voters. In spite Of all the re-
publicans elected their chairman by
seven majority and the rest of the
ticket by greater majorities.

1t has been shown in these columns
that the production Of thoroughbred
and tr0tting horses has been largely in
excess of the death rate, that as a
necessary sequence the stock in the
country is increasing from year to
year, and that unless q foreign demand
be created prices must inevitably
decline. Breeders should therefore
turn their attention more to the produc-
ton Of fast-Walking horses, both for
the saddle and general draught. The
business would pay handsomely, for
the utility and value Of such horses
would soon be properly appreciated,
thus creating steady demand, which
would not likely be diminished, for the
next half centuary at least. On the
farm q slow walking horse does not
do half the work that a rapid walker is
able to accomplish. In towns and
cities where dradght horses are used in
the truck, cart, dray, &C., it is the same
not half the work is performed by the
slow walker, who craWls along at a
snail's pace, and, when drawing load,
connot be galvanized into rapid motion.
AS a traveller, both under saddle and in
harness, the slow walker is o nuisance.
No matter what work he is engaged in,
time and money are lost to his owner
every day that he lives.-Pen and

LECKYs HISTORY EUROPEAN MORALS.
There are few more curious III jrcts 0f
enquiry than the distinctive ditfe enCes
between the minds and characters of men
and women, and the manner in which
those differences have aztec ed the ideal
types OF diff trent ages, nations. philosO-
phies, and religions. Physically, men
have the indisputNble superiority Of
strength, and women in beauty. Intel.
lectually, certain infrriority of the
female sex can hardly he denied when
we remember how almost exclusively the
foremost places in every department of
science, literature, and art, have been oc-
cupied by men, how ininitesimLly small
is the number OF women who have shown
In any form the very highest order OF
genius, how many of tue greatest men
nave achieved their greatness in defiance
OF the most adverse circumstances, and
how completely women, have failed in
obtaining the first position, even in mu-
sic or painting, for the cultivation of
which their circumstances would appear
most propitious 1t is as impossible to
find female Raphael, or u female Han
del, as female Shakespeare or Newton.
Women are intellectually more desultory
and volatile than men, they are more
occupied with particular instances than
with genera principles; they judge
rather by intuItive perceptions than by
deliberate reasoning or past experience.
They Hre however, usually superior to
men in nimblcness and rnpidity of
thought and in the gilt Of tact or the
power of seizing speedily and faithfully
the finer inhexions OF feeling, and they
have therefore often attained very great
eminenCe as COnversutonalists, as letter
writers, M actresses, and as novelisls.
Morally, the general superiority of wo-
men over men is, think unquestionable.
