20 Me EaaOr Of be Pqeifc Commercial Advertiser,

To the Editor of the Pacific Commercial Advertiser :
SIR AS a further explanation of my remarks,
l may explain that christians who believe that the
preacher of the Gospel must FIRST get a special
call, and be duly ordained to act as a minister in
the house Of God, consecrated for that purpose,
may perhaps from their point of view, regard with
uneasiness the conversion of a circus tent into a
sanctuary. Other christians, who believe that any
christian whatever has a right TO stand upf any
Word as they understand livery naturally see
nothing inconvenient in holding religious services
in a circus tent, or any other place. Hence, the
uselessness OF continuing this discussion.
SANCTUARY.

GOD,S SCHOOL.

One by one, as the days 90 BY
To learn our lessons we braVely try;
For every hour some task is set
Difficult, easy, short or long
And whether we come to it weak or strong,
Some how or other it must be met.
Graded well is this school Of ours,
Each ones duty within his powers,
And his task the thing that be needs to know
And many time does the page grow DIM
And before tired eyes the hard words SWIM
And the hours go by so slow, SO slow.
Various ages are gathered there
Flaxen ringlets and thin gray hair
Alike fall over the lesson books.
And often the little ones laugh in glee
Atthe beautiful wor Is their bright eyes see
While the Old sit silent, with grave, sad looks
skillful teachers assemble here,
Patiently labor year by year;
Never mistake in their work was known;
Only the scholars, weary and yexed,
Idle, impatient, tired, perplexed'
Suffer from errors all their own.
The Spirit teaches the highest class;
Time takes all as they onward pass
Joy is claimed by the happy few,
While Care, Experience, Labor, Pam,
Treasures OF knowledge help US gain,
And Conscience conducts the grand review.
But, patiently learning day by day,
We are longing to hear the Master say
That our school days here are done;
4 afta ha la l1ny torn ahall mass.
To be transferred to tina! upper class
In which the advanced work is begun.

The material used in the warfare against
TINS intruder has generally been Paris
green busted on the leaves when wet with
dew, while the beetles are in their laryml
state, or mixed with water at the rate of
one tablespoonful of the green TO a paiful
OF water. When applied dry it is better
to mix with ten parts of flour; and great
care should be taken not to inhale the dust.
as 1t is very poisonous. When in solution
1t must be almost continually stirred, or
the green will sink to the bottom of the
sprinkler, as it is not soluble in the water,
Prof. Riley of Missouri says that quite
as good results may be obtained in using
the ingredients from which green is made
as from the finished article The Paris
green costs, say thirty-seven and oae-half
cents per pound, and the demand is often
so great that it cannot be obtained lust
when wanted, especially in back towns.
The following directions for making green,
from Brande's Chemistry, are practical:
Dissolve two pounds of sulphate of cop
per (blue vitrol, costing fifteen cents per
pound, or thirty cents in gallon of hot
water, keeping it in stone jar. Dis
solve in another large jar, one pound of
common white arsenic Costing about six
cents) and two pounds of saleratus or
pearlash, Costing sixteen cents, in forty
four pounds of hot water, stirring well till
thoroughly dissolved. These articles,
costing fifty.two cents, will make about
five pounds of Paris green, costing about
3l88.
This can be kept in solution and mixed
in proportion of one part of the first and
five of the last solution, as they are needed
The green Immediately begins to precipi-
tate in a fine powder, and is much more
convenient for use in solution than the dry
article. Prof. Riley says that Paris green
can be in this way used without danger,
and Ill agree that in solution or mixed
with flour when dry and busted on, it is
the unfaiIing remedy.
Dr.. lie Conte advises the use of large
atomizers for not only the destruction of
the potato beetle, but of all insects that
can be killed by solution. This idea is
worthy of consideration, and it may. doubt.
less, prove invaluable.
When this beetle first came among the
farmers all birds. like themselves, were
suspicious ofit,and it has often been report
ed that no bird would touchhem Such is
not true. Ducks will devour them greedily.
Turkeys and all fowls learn soon to like
them for food and chickens frequently take
them in preference to any other insects. The
crow which was so roughly handled in a
late issue of your paper not only takes the
beetles aud larye from the vines in great
numbers, but late in the season digs for
the beetles in tue ground, and captures
thousands of them. The Rose breasted
Grosheak and many other birds have also
a great liking for them. Skunks, toads
and snakes, even, prey upon Them but AS
have already taken too much of your
space will close for this time without
further comment.

Below we publish some portions of a
paper by Prof Collier, on Commercial
Fertilizers, which to Us seem to the point.
We have not used them, but confined our
efforts to the making of fertilizers in the
stable, the pig-pen and yard, and the COM
post heap and barn yard. But when we
come to dealing in chemicals pure and
impure, we had better leave the matter to
those who know their business, and then
see that they do it:
From time to time agricultural papers
lay b, fore their readers recipes for the
making of superphosphates and advising
them 50 to do, and not a few are disposed
to follow the advice. As to the method,
pursued in their manufacture there cannot
be any secret, for the principle involved
are few in number and may be lie rned by
any one. ANY respectable manufacturer,
IpreSume, will freely throw open his works
to public or private inspection The great
difficulty in the way is want of knowl-
edge of those chemical principles upon
which, though few in number, success de-
ponds.

sive manufacturer has to pay for the same
In lecture delivered by DR., Voelcker IN
England, he says: Il do not recommend
the system of homemade superphosphate9s'
For some time we made our own at the
agricultural college farm at Cirencester
but taking the quantity of soluble phos-
pbate produced, we found We could not
make it SO cheap as it could be bought
There is a decided advantage in buying
a superphosphate" And in the same lee
ture he says: E" | lay particular stress on
the term intelligent manufacturer, because
believe it to be a hazardous undertaking
for the farmer to prepare his superphos-
phate, considerable knowledge being re-
quired, together with practical acqualini-
lance with the method and proper applI-
ances." Mr.. Goodale, above quoted alter
detailing the numerous difficulties IN the
way insurmountable to the ordinary
farmer, strongly advises the farmer
to purchase rather than to attempt
the manufacture, and concludes by say
ing: That though the farmers are some
times induced to try the experiment got
