| give the rule for doubling the final
consonant, which was answered by
stating that he did not teach SPELL
ing by rule.
A class was then called in the
Fifth reader, and the rules given,
1. G. that each word was to be pro-
nounced before spelling; that no
syllable shall be repeated, and that
| the word shall be pronounced after
spelling; 10 word is observed by
the teacher when missed, but II
may be caught up instead Of the
word pronounced, and will give the
correct speller preference in posi-
tion.
Miss Mobeck introduced the sub
ject of word analysis, giving some
practical hints and suggestions.
She preferred the system as laid
down in the text books, since, 9TH
erwise, it would not, in her mind,
advance the study.
Messrs. Hall and Cady followed,
criticising to some extent strict ad-
herence to the text books, which
was explained by Miss Mobeck as
not ruling out the privilege of Civ
ing variety of definitions in orig
inal language.
Messrs. Hayes aud Quinn explain
ed the system of classification. Mr..
Quinn preferred the classification OF
prefixes and sui1ixes, with q care
full study of the roots.
Prof. Lawlor eulogized the sug-
gestions and led off by adding to
the plan laid down by Prof. Quinn.
He attached great Importance to
the necessity of properly under
standing the origin of the word in
the meaning of the root; then, by
adding the various prefixes and
suffixes, the modified meanings are
easily mastered.
BY request, Mr.. Mann took part
In the discussion. He expressed d
aversion to the study of word anal
ysis. While he claimed to be a
novice in the study, he said the en-
thusiasm is mainly on the part of
the teacher, since the subject is too
profound for any grade below the
High school. He suggested sim
pier and more practicable plan,
that, he said, may be useful. O.,
take an assemblage of simple
words and teach the pupil from
practical analysis rather than the
origin Of the word or root, prefer
ing not to demand the study of
words beyond their comprehension
Prof. Lawlor responded in favor
of word analysis, ILLUSTRATING in a
lucid way the manner in which
the meaning of the root may he inn
pressed upon the mind of the
pupil.

TEACHERS INSTITUTE.
Opening Proceedings To-Day,

The Los Angeles County Insti-

called the assemblage to order, and,
on motion Of Mr.. Ready, w. r.

In accordance with a motion by
j. r. Quinn, a committee on organ
ization was appointed, consisting
of S. II. Butterfield, G. N. An
drews, Jno. Hayes, r. w. Ready
and Prof. Quinn.
Supt. Mcdonald then made some
happy suggestions as to the neces-
sity of unanimity of action and gen.
eral good feeling. He spoke also OF
the Importance of punctuality In
attendance. He proposed that the
front seats be reserved for teachers.
Prof. Peck, by request, delivered
a short, terse lecture on the uses
and peculiar adaptability to school
work of the Camphor Storm Indi.
Gator, touching upon the import
ance of meteorlogic science In con-
nection with common schools.

" Nothing hut a Farmer.N

The following is from the PiOwman !;
90 He's nothing but farmer said little
miss, a few evenings since, as she scornfully
curled her pretty lip, on being introduced
to fine, generous, open-hearted fellow,
whose broad and expansive forehead was
the symbol of his broad acres. He's moth
ing but farmer And who was she that
looked thus disdainfully on one of Gods
noble men ? She was the daughter of a
broken merchant, whose fortune had been
ruined by the extravaganza of wife and
foolishly proud daughter, Though her
fathers heart had been wrung by misfortune
and he had paid the penalty of extrava-
gance by being incarcerated in the home
prepared for criminals-his daughter had
not yet learned the difference between pride
and worth, extravagance and wealth."

Where to Sell Good Butter.

An exchange says ain talking with
person who had been grocer, we heard the
following remark in answer TO the question,
Why do you not make more difference in
the price of butter taken in from the far
mers 2 I'VE cannot do it. 1t will not work.
Nothing will offend woman quicker than
to tell her that her butter is not first-class,
If we tell her the butter is poor, she will sell
it somewhere else, and she will trade where
she sells her produce To keep her trade,
must buy her butter. So it is often custo-
mary to pay about the same price for all
grades of butter offered in small lots. We
make on the best lots and lose on the poorest
We come out about even, satisfy all parties,
and get the custom of those who sell butter
which is good or poor The better way for
those who make the best butter is to find some
regular customers and supply them from
week to week, throughout the year. In this
way, the producer gets better prices and
avoids the close shave of midde-men."
Vermont watchman and State journal. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1836-1883, 1878-03-13
Manurial Value Of Feeds.

Every farmer knows that manure from
straw-fed stock has very little strength"
which means that it contains but small
amount of plant food. Every farmer knows,
too, the value of the manure from granted
animals. Every farmer knows how much
hogs improve manure where they are kept
upon it, because they add their own rich
and concentrated dung and urine to the
mass. And they all value hen manure,
which is strong because it is made from
seeds and insects, and because it contains
the excretion of the kidneys, which in birds
is passed off in a solid form with the dung.
Chemists have carefully Analysed the ma
nure of different animals, from different
kinds of feed, and they are able to tell us
with certainty that when reckoned at the
price we pay for the same elements Of plant
food in the best artificial fertilizers, wheat
bran will give us manure worth seventeen
dollars for every ton Of bran fed that pea
meal gives a still richer manure and that
linseed cake and cotton seed cake give
higher and higher values to the excrement
of stock fed with them. But this is only
true (and don't you forget iD when both the
urine and dung are all saved for the most
valuable fertilizing material passes of in
the urine.
1t is great pity that our farmers do not
appreciate, as European farmers do, the
value of rich feeds, not only for making
wool, milk or fat, but also for enriching the
manure. Nearly ali the oil cake made from
linseed and cotton-seed in this country is
shipped TO England. We ought, (and we
should if we "knew enough y send the
English the cheese, butter, wool, fat beef
and mutton that this rich food will make,
and keep the manure for growing grass and
grain crops.
The manure question is the greatest of
all questions to the farmer, and the one he
should study by night and by day To
make as much manure as possible, to make
it as rich as possible to save all he makes,
and to apply it to the growing of crops to
the best advantage, u.s. if not the whole duty
of the farmer, the highest duty in the pur-
suit of his trade. And certainly, while
there is so much Ignorance, so much waste,
and so little good judgment among so many
on this question of questions, the man who
will study and understand it will have a
great advantage over all competitors, and
ought to " make farming pay"

Three Good Lessons.

Some Tight Truths.

Our old friend, Frank w. Miller, one of
the brightest, and we believe one of the very
honestest, of the editorial profession in our
neighbor state, made an address before the
recent joint assembly of the New Hampshire
State Grange and State Board of Agricul-
ture, in which, after giving Brother Chase,
master of the State Grange, well merited
dressing down for declaring that "labor is
a curse" he said with frank directness
which is worthy of equally frank reception
and acknowledgment on our part, as farmers;
" Farmers do not hang together as they
should they are too jealous of one another's
success. If one is getting good thing in
selling milk or in raising any particular
crop, they are too apt to strive to spoil the
business by cutting under, Or by getting
away customers Who ever heard of law
yer sneaking around to get a case away from
brother of the craft ? And who ever
knew a rum-seller to cut down prices to Sc
cure trade No, the lawyer and rum-sell-
ers hang together the best of any class
know, and sometimes am tempted to wish
more of them could hang together.
"Farmers are too much inclined to depre-
ciate themselves. If they get little money
ahead and think to start bank, they will
pay a clerk for taking care of the books ten
times as much as either one Of them would
dare ask for doing the same number of
hours work for the clerk. When com
menced business as printer, | had been
told that lawyers and physicians must charge
big fees for their services, because it had
cost them so much to acquire their educa-
ton. | made up my mind that those men
who charged me big fees would have big fees
charged them in return. 1t has cost me as
much to be a printer as it would have cost
to become a lawyer. Farmers need as good
an education as the lawyer, and better Of
the two, and they should value such an edu-
cation, and realize the dignity which belongs
with IT,"
