title the holder to teach any where. in

3. That four or five months school
in the year, instead of three months,
be made a condition of receiving ap-
portionment from the school fund,

early day, adding to the branches now
included in the second grade, Physi-

more marked,
j, That no certificate of any grade

Church Music.

One denomination in the United
States, with very large membership,
has this very appropriate sentence on
the title page of its hymn book: "Let
us sing with the spirit and with the
understanding also," and no doubt the
compilers of that book foresaw the ne.
cessity of such an admenition.
The Interpretation some place upon
the words "sing with the spirit"
seems, from the effort made, to indi-
cate more noise than music, and that
a boisterous rendering of tune is Civ
ing vent to the proper spirit.
We think differently. Those emil
nent men who carefully made selec-
tions of hymns for their book, evident
ly were controlled by higher and more
noble sentiments in their interpreta-
ton of this word spirit" and like
them, we would fain believe that sng-
ing with the spirit embraces the ex-
preston of all the different emotions
which are indicated in the poetry, and
which may be SO varied that the un-
derstanding will be taxed to the ut
most to properly render the music SO
as to have it completely adapted to
the words to which it is applied.
The foregoing will apply to instru-
mental as well as vocal music, but as
more persons are required for vocal
music in church choirs, so there is
more need of care and thorough prac-
tice.
Good choir music adds much to the
effect of church service, but while we
advocate choir music, we consider that
only as leading in the music, and not
performing it all, for music is grander
and more inspiring when swelled out
full and strong by the whole congrega-
ton, and kept up promptly in time
and also with ''the spirit and under
standing"
To obtain good choir music, practice
is very necessary, and much of it, and
| primary course would contribute
much to it's success. And, as all the
churches as well as church attendants
are interested in having good music,
why not institute movement for OBJ
tanning competent teacher to give
singing lessons to all who wish to at
tend, and then the several churches
will find they will have gained much
in quantity and quality of music. A
combined effort of this kind, will meet
with success and be productive of
more good than most are aware.
1t is much easier to critioise the per-
formance of a choir than to render the
music, and nine critics out of ten will
fail to do as well as those they blame.
Let a committee of two be appointed
from each church, to get up singing
class. Will you do it.

In letter to the Herman Herald,
written by gentleman who has been
west on the Hastings & Dakota Rail-
road and beyond it's terminus to James
town, we find the following extract,
which seems to be the views many
express who go farther west; lone
man at jamestown, who used to live
near Morris, told us that he thought
the land about jamestown was not as
good as around Morris; that the up
lands about the latter place bore as
much grass as the meadows about the
former, and that the soil about James
town was higher and would not be as
lasting as that of western Minnesota.
Still, the James River valley is a fine
country, but it has been lauded beyond
it's real merits"

ANYTHING ?

BY REV. ]. P. HUTCHINSON.
Hast thou golden thought? Suppress it not,
But let it, bird-like, out into the air;
For it may cheer some lone secluded spot
And melt some sorrow into music there.
Hast thou a silvery word? o speak it out,
For that sweet ministry to thee is given
To cherish faith and to extinguish doubt,
To elevate to thoughts of God and heaven.
Hast thou heart that beats toward the poor?
Stop not its yearnings DER their low estate,
But still their happiness seek to secure,
And thine own happiness will not abate.
Hast thou the means? Thank God and use
them we'll,
For we must all give an account at last,
And even here the ransomed ones shall tell
How much we helped them as through life
we passed.
All have some thoughts, some word, some
loving throhs,
Some momepta in the life when God seems
near
And we may still some signs or hush some
sObs,
And make the way to heaven seem bright and
clear.

The Agricultural Report for 1882, is
out, and must be valuable produc-
ton, Judging from some of the extracts
we have seen. Some of the aggregate
productions are as follows: Corn, j.
624, ,9l7 800 bushels; Wheat, sos, ,7S9, 800
bushels; Oats, 475 ,655, 700 bushels; Po-
tatoes, 7O,OOO,OOO. All of which goes
to show that the farmers are power,
and that the prosperity of the country
depends much on their success.

We sgive the above place in oul
columns to show the readers of the
TRIBUNE the growing interest mani
tested in the northwest with reference
to dairying. Although the raising OF
wheat is and always will be II leading
agricultural product, yet, in conse.
quenco of many failures of crops, the
farmers find they cannot rely upon il
at all times, AMI are turning their at
tention, in many localities, to other
BRANCHES of farming industry.
The raising of stock does not meet
with as many reverses as does the cul-
tivation of the soil, and is becoming n
business of great magnitude. The
more densly populated states have not
the range for grazing that is found in
the west, and it is becoming quite a
problem how to get beef cattle to the
eastern market cheaply.
Following stock raising and closely
identified with it is the dairying in
dustry, and as indicated in the COM
munication referred to, the business
has an organized head for mutual
profit and improvement.
Much can be learned at the meetings
of such an association, as the expert
ences Of many can be made useful.
We feel certain that much can be ad-
ded to the wealth and prosperity of
Stevens county if the farmers will pay
more attention to the dairy business,
and our columns are open to any dis
cussion upon that subject.
