LIME ON WHEAT.-Many farmers who
use lime for the first time on wheat, are
apt to feel little discouraged in the
spring. have frequently seen lined
wheat in the spring look worse than
where no lime were used. But wait lit
tie. and YOU will see change for the bet
ter. and at harvest the lime will generally
give good account for ITSELF There is
one thing about lime which. if generally
true, is an important mat er to our wheat
growers. Lime is believed to hasten the
maturity of the crop. 1t is true of near
ly all our cultivated crops says the late
Professor Johnston, but especially of
hose of wheat, that their full growth is
attained more speedily when the land i,
lined, and that they are ready for the har-
vest from ten to fourteen days earlier
This is the case even with buckwheat
which becomes sooner ripe, though il
yields no larger return when lime is ap
Piled to the land on which it is growing
In districts where the midge affects tht
wheat, it is exceedingly important to geu
Il variety of wheat that ripens early; AM
if lime will favor early maturity without
checking the growth, it will be of grea,
value.-TulkS on MdnureS.

In n careful analysis of the list. we find
the quantity stated with substantial accu
racy in five cases. to eleven cases of mod
crate over-estimates. and only one case
(ahove siated) of an underestimate. As
to quality of milk, there seems to be nine
cases Of agreement TO two of divergence
in slight underestimate. As to length
of the milk period. the estimate Is rather
below the truth in seven cases, above it in
four. and correct in four.
These we understand to have been the
first examinations made by the commission
With further experience it is very likely
that their reports will show still greater
degree of accuracy in subsequent trials.

The New York herald., 1878-12-15
school Board Extravaganza.

Some of our readers seem surprised that
the HERALD should expect school janitors
to know anything about ventilation. They
say that janitors are employed to sweep
rooms, make fires and do other low
grade labor, and are not to be expected to
attend to duties requiring q high order
of intelligence. If this is also the opinion
Of the Board Of Education the pay Of jani-
tors should at once be reduced to that Of
other sweeps and stokers. The janitors of
our city schools average about a thousand
dollars year. This is far better pay than
the majority of teachers get, though any
one of these can be depended upon to
know q thermometer from broom when
they see them side by side. Engineers
seldom get thousand dollars year,
though great deal of scientific knowledge
is expected of them. The average income
of skilled IN echanics will not reach a
thousand dollars q year, and the army sub
altern, with his West Point scientific educa-
tion, does not get much more. II the pay
of ianitors is not to be reduced the standard
of the service should be greatly raised and
incompetent men Weeueu OUT at oHce.
Were the Board of Education to fill these
positions by competitive examination there
would be hundred intelligent applicants
for every building. 1t is bad enough to
have inferior positions in other depart
ments of the city administration filled by
incompetents at salaries that good men
would gladly accept, but it is worse than
bad to keep crowd of numskulls in em-
ploy at high pay when human health and
life are the principal sufferers by their
blunders.
The New York herald., 1878-12-15
Our Palmer Lunafics.

The statements made by Mrs. Josephine
Shaw Lowell on behalf of the State Board
of Charities to the Board OF Apportionment
concerning the insufficient accommodations
sor the insane poor in the city institutions
deserve prompt consideration. The penal
and charitable buildings on Blackwelis
Island and Wards Island are excellent so
far as they go; but they are becoming too
small for the increasing population of the
city, and should be increased in capacity
before the worst evils of overcrowded insti-
tutions compel attention to the subject. 1t
is especially essential that the pauper luna
tics should have ample room for health,
cleanliness and a proper classification of
the different phases OF insanity. These un-
treatment that can be extended to them.
The recent developments at the Onondaea
County iPoorhouse prove how ready public
authorities may be to win character for
economy at the expense of humanity, and
it would be deplorable if the insane paupers
in New York should be subjected to the
brutal treatment bestowed upon tho same
class in Onondaga county for the sake of
saving n few dollars Of public expendi-
tulc. Sufficient appropriations should be
promptly made for the additional buildings
and extensions suggested by Mrs. Lowell.
The fact that We have twelve hundred in
sane patients under the care of the city in
excess Of the number that can be properly
accommodated in the public institutions
is enough to startlo the community and to
prove that the call for increased accomoda-
tions does not come too soon.
There arc many evils connected with the
care and treatment of the cty's paupers,
sane and insane. Tho management of the
Department Of Charities and Correction
does not entirely command public conf
dcnce either ia point of efficiency or Of hon
esty. Some time ago it was shown that
bur pauper population, including aged
persons, invalids and infants, consumed
more beef and bread than would be dis
posed of by the same number of ablt-bodied
soldiers on active duty, according 10 the ra-
ton accounts and yet got very little TO eat
according to their own accounts. Since
then we are not aware that any reform has
taken place in the department, and there is
reason to believe that the quality of the
food supplied at the asylums is as open to
criticism as the quantity. But the build
ings have always been well cared for and
creditably maintained, and it is to be hoped
that no fear Of q proper expenditure will
rrevcnt their being made fully equal TO the
eod demoud upon them Let ia pro-
vide suitable and ample accommodations
The New York herald., 1878-12-15

forced the Sultan to agree to make that def
mite treaty Of which the one made at San
Stefano was the preliminary and that.
perhaps, will become sound basis Of
peace between the two Powers, and is the
more likely to become SO, as the opposition
is likely to keep the Beaconsfeld govern
ment occupied at home.
France, Italy and Austria have their
troubles, also, while the sad Sultan, like
the man who did not know where to begin
his labors and therefore went fishing, in
dulges himself in n change Of Ministry /;
they treat themselves to the same variety
in Rome. France fights the reaction
sturdily, but is always compelled to fight
it and in Italy, what with the revived hopes
Of the Church, the projects of electoral re-
form and the rccriminations of parties
accusing one another Of murderous socia.-
is.ic principles, politics are tremendously
lively. Austria's latest difficulty is not n
common, one in her history. In so tar as
the difficulty was an expression of the spirit
of yirnlent opposition it has plenty Of
precedent everywhere but it is very un-
usual tor an opposition in Austria to be
able to avail itself so effectively OF constitu-
tional limitations upon the power Of the
government.
