Fowls IN ORCHARDS.-Ihe IOWTy
World believes that chickens should have
the run of orchards and says: We be-
lieve that if farmers and fruit raisers knew
the benefits arising from such manage
ment they would at once adopt it. Last
fall we visited an orchard in which fowls
were kept, the owner of which told us
that before the fowls were confined in it
the trees made little or no growth, and
only corresponding amount of fruit was
obtained But what change was evident
now. The grass was kept down. the
weeds killed, and the trees presented an
appearance of thrift which the most en-
husiastic horticulturist could not help but
admire and envy. The growth OF the
trees was most vigorous and the foliage
remarkably luxurant. The fruit was
abundant, of large size, and free from
worms and other imperfections. This en-
cellence was accounted for by the propric-
tor, who remarked that the hens ate all
the worms and curculio within their reach,
even the canker worm He found less
trouble with their roosting i'll trees than
he expected, and that picket fence SIX
feet high kept them within bounds. Ills
orchard was divided into three sections
and the fowls were changed from one to
another, as the condition of the fowls oil
the orchard section seemed TO require"

A YOUNG MANS FATAL WoUND.-Al-

of Ellenburgh Corners, N. Y, went out
fox hunting few days ago. Not return
ing home at night, search was made for
him and kept up for two days, when he
was found in the woods dead and frozen
stiff, with gunshot wound in his thigh
and abdomen, and his gun on the other
side of u largo stump near the body.
Probably in reaching across the stump for
his gun he hit the hammer, accidentally
discharging the weapon. Physicians who
examined the body are of the opinion that
Van Arnam did not survive over six min
utes after the discharge Of the gun.

EDUCATION FOR AMERICANs.-.llon.
Andrew ID. White, of Cornell University,
is one of the most devoted friends of the
public school system, since Horace Mann,
who rave the best part of his life TO its

ipg in Europe and sends home letter in
which the following words of wisdom are
addressed to the people Of this county,
" The more 1travcl through these ancient
lands, and take calm view of our Amerl-
can affairs from the outside, in the light
thus obtained, the more thorough becomes

against the terrible evils that have swept

its parts, managed by the people, and not

complete in all its parts, because l am
convinced that high school instruction
must form part of such II system in order
that the public schools in general may be
kept in proper efficiency. AS well attempt
to grow pine trees by cutting off all above
the trunk, as to develop system OF pop
ular education and lop off all its higher
growth. No economy could be more false
than the attempt to save money by multi
lating our system Of education. Let us
hope, then, that while retrenchment Is
carried out in other directions, the only
question regarding our educational system
will be how can we extend it more wisely,
how can we develop it more thoroughly

inc salaries and mutilating departments
