Farmers Sons and Agricultural Col.
leges.

A great deal is being said about the
sphere and usefulness of agricultural
colleges. Prof. G. G Caldwell argues
that the fault is with the farmers, who
take no interest in the matter, and that
s'ninety-nine hundredths of the farmers
do not see any use for a course at one
of these colleges, either for themselves
or their children; and will
neither go near the college nor send
their sons there;' while Peter Hender-
son, in criticising the Professors arti-
Gle, seems to carry the idea that an ag-
ricultural education fails to make a
successful farmer, and for this reason
farmers will not "walk up to the rack;
fodder or no fodder"
1t seems to me there is another fea-
ture which enters into the consideration
of this subject. 1t has been said that
agricultural schools are failure, mas
much as they educate boys off of the
farm. If a medical school or law col
lege turn out fifty graduates you natur-
ally look upon that number as so many
recruits to the ranks of the law or medi-
cine; but if an agricultural college turns
out fifty graduates you dom know what
to expect You may anticipate that
five out of the fifty will go back on to
the farm. Now, then, what is the mat
terP Where lies the troublep There is
nut loose somewhere, and many per-
sons are apt to say ''this is the fault of
the college"
/ think that is laying the charge at
the wrong mans door. The seeds of
this growth were sown on the farm. No
matter how much the man may like
farming, and no matter how strong his
desire that the son should continue on
the old homestead and make a success
full farmer, the chances are nine to one
that the course which he has pursued
with the boy has turned the latter's
mind directly against the business and
made him swear to himself when he
started off to college: ''H you ever
catch me on farm after I'm my own
boss / hope somebody will kick me
across a ten-acre lot" The fault is in
the home-life of the farmer-in the
gradual and unconscious training Cor,
rather, lack of training,) which the boy
has received from the time he was big
enough to carry water to the field until
he had to do a mans work. The alpha
and omega of his instruction have been,
Work, my son, work" He has never
been told that it is not simply work, but
intelligent sDork which achieves the
highest result; and without any distinct
idea of the aim of life he has long since
resolved that the aim of boy should be
to get off of the farm.
What is the remedy? Any suggestion
of q remedy would require long chap
ter, and l shall simply ask, does not
this subject resolve itself into the old
| question, "How shall we keep the boys
on the farmP"-Clenl Auldon, in Rural

Turned His Head.

The oft-repeated maxim that actions
speak louder than words has been ex-
emplified IN 8 pathetic manner recently
in this city. A very few years ago there
lived here a young couple who to all ap-
pearances were devoted to each other.
At least the husband was extremely
fond of his young and attractive wife,
and surrounded her with everything
that could make reasonable woman
happy. She was fond of music and the
drama, and in an evil hour he encour-
aged her to take lessons for the amateur
stage and fill local engagements. 1t
was the beginning of an ambitious de-
sire for public life, and it ended in her
making secret resolve to go out into
the world and earn her own living as
an actress. One morning she pinned a
rose IN his button-hole when he went
away to his business and kissed him
goodbye as was her wont, and when he
went home at night she was
goneI He has never seen her
since; he expended great deal
of money in following her from
place to place, as he supposed, but
It always proved to be some one else.
Once he bribed q waiter at hotel to
let him glance through a door as tray
was carried into a guests room, but
the sick lady was not his wife. She had
disappeared as completely as If tn,
earth had swallowed her. The husband
made no threats of what he would do il
he ever found her, but his friends be-
lieve he would kill the woman whose
only fault is her unwillingness to live
with him-ambition being her only other
love. A few days since a friend met
him on the streets here, but at first he
hardly recognized him. then he asked:
Have you never found her?"
'No, and I never expect to-"
"Haye you given mp looking for herP''
"No. and never viii"
s.Have you been ill? You seem
changed"
For answer the other man lifted his
hat. Two years ago his hair was dark.

And softly strummed on his guitar
And nHed the air with dulcet strain,
With tenor voice sang this refrain:

How she his love repeIled-
She listened as his song arose
Above her Washtnbss snllen roar

Ana caught the words the singer sung:

And washboard down she flung.

Sweet smiles her face chased o'er1,
And, quick returning, brought to view
A chain and dog-a bulldog, too
And quick threw ope the door.

shoulder Lameness.

This affection is not of SO frequent oc-
currence as is generally imagined, but
sometimes the difficulty of ascertainine
the real seat of lameness, when situated
in the foot, has occasioned many "hoss
doctor" or ignorant blacksmith to refer
the complaint to the shoulder; and, in
consequence, the poor animal has beer

ton of rowelling. As lameness in the
fore limbs of the horse, in the plurality
of cases, is located below the knee,
either in the back tendons or in the foot,
it is of considerable importance to be
able to distinguish between a sprain OF
the shoulder and injuries elsewhere in
the limb. Mistakes will seldom occur
if attention is paid to the following
symptoms:
When horse is lame in the shoulder.
he drags the limb from inability of the
muscles of the shoulder to properly lift
the limb from the ground. The motion
of the limb is more or less swinging out
wardly. If he lifts his foot high from
the ground the shoulder can not be much
affected. In rapidly walking down hill.
he catches up the leg with considerable
quickness; he will frequently stumble
when going uphill, and win make a
shorter step with the lame leg than with
the other. He goes equally lame on
hard or soft ground, which is not the
case when the lameness is in the foot.
In shoulder lameness there is no differ
ence in the temperature of the two feet.

blister, to the point of the shoulder
