Average crop Pounds of
Bush. WI. Fho>pGOlic Acid

From these figures it would appear
that, in any case, whatever we may
sell off the farm, the quantity OF phos-
phoric acid removed will be very
small in comparison with the stock
in the soil, even if we start with only
the average proportion of three thou
sand five hundred pounds per acre,
or ten parts in ten thousand. A crop
of turnips, which takes up a larger
quantity of the acid per acre than any
of the other crops mentioned in the
above table, would carry off in the
roots only forty-two pounds, or about
one-ninetieth of the whole quantity;
acrop of potatoes, only twenty pounds,
one OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES of
the whole: a crop of corn, about Il
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., and a crop of
wheat, only one three-hundredth. But
in the best systems OF farming, all
these products are not sold: the roots
and hay, and III some cases the corn,
are fed to the stock, and nothing but
wheat and other cereal grains, milk,
or the products of its manufacture
into butter and cheese, and meat are
sold; and in many cases potatoes also.
But in all these products there is com
paratively little phosphoric acid.
With the acres yield of wheat only
twelve pounds of phosphoric acid leave
the farm, and with the potatoes, only
twenty pounds. Sales of corn remove
this acid from the farm almost three
times as fast as sales of wheat, and
one-third faster the sale Of potatoes.
Taking the annual yield Of a COW TO be
two thousand FIVE hundred pounds of
milk, if it is all sold, only about six
pounds of phosphoric acid would be
exported, and this quantity of acid
would probably be taken from not
less than two acres of land, required
for the support Of the COW. Accord
ing to the estimate of Mr.. Lawes, for
every thousand pounds of live weight
of beef animals raised on the farm,

cussion.
The Teachers Meetings thus far held
IN the county, have been attended only
by the better class of teachers. Bad
roads and bad weather have undoubtedly
prevented many from attending. There
are those, however, who seek excuses to
absent themselves from such meetings
and others who could and have not been
present. The schools would prosper as
well if such teachers were engaged in
more congenial employment. Persons
who keep school alone for the amount
of money involved, who regard the work
of teaching as irksome and shirk the
major portion of it, habitually dodge
Teachers Meetings and associations
The teacher who trades upon small
capital but by an ominous silence or
a glib tongue endeavors to pass for
heavy capitalist intellectually, avoids
teachers rleetingsas he would the plague.
Good comes from the association of
teachers. The young and inexperienced
learn from the experienced. The ex-
perienced teacher receives new ideas and
impressions. All receive information
and are better prepared to pass e4ami
nations and perform the duties of the
school room. School boards can Judge
of the interest teachers take in their
work, by the activity displayed by them
in relation to such meetings. Unless
valid reasons exist, non attendance can
be charged to incompetency Or want of
interest in the work.
