coMMoN-sENsE EDUCATION
From a Lecture by j. H. Kellogg, NJ. u,
Battle Creek Sanitarium.

From q Lecture by j. II. Kellogg, M. d.,
Battle Creek Sanitarfum.
That hereditary tendencies, moral,
mental or physical, may be stamped
out and the standard OF the race raised,
enlightenment as to matters of heredity
should be widespread, and teachers and
parents alert to repress or develop as
each individual case may require. In
stead'of allowing child just to ''grow, !"
like Topsy, we should adopt Froebel's
method, and from the cradle guide and
develop each child as an individual,
always taking into account individual
peculiarities and inherited tendencies,
SO that its life may be a symmetrical,
well-rounded whole. There must be
sGill room for individuality and the true
disciple of Froebel delights in drawing
out, REFRESHING only when necessary. 1t
the same pains were taken in training
human beings that is bestowed upon
blooded horses, the advance in the
scale would be very marked. Colts are
taken in hand one by one and carefully
drilled according to whatis expected Of
each respectively for future usefulness.
They are not gathered in drove and
started off together at some word Of
command which is supposed to meet the
case of the average or the majority. A
borse-trainer would scout such an at
tempt, as no training at all. Yet our
children are crowded into the large
public schools and put through COM
mon drill which meets some cases and
misses more, where many things of first
Importance receive no attention what
ever, and in consequence children cul-
tivate all sorts of 5eformities. It is the
duty of every one to help elevate the
standard of public schools, the parents
cooperating with the teachers in the
education of our youth, morally, mem
tally and physically.
Children should be under training
from the time they get up in the MORN
ing until they 60 to led at night. The
true system of education leaves ample
room for spontaneity but not for mis-
chief. Life would be worth so much
more to every one trained in this way
than it can be in the haphazard fashion
usually pursued. One would not all the
time have to contend against difficul-
ties which are the result of education
or from some neglect of education.
Every one appreciates this who is in
terested in bringing about better mode
OF training children and know the inn
portance of studying heredity from this
standpoint. II

urc of Cotton.
With the growth of population and
the recognition of the value of inten-
sive agriculture, sheep-raising as an
aid to the cotton planter will doubtless
make marked progress. Most of our
agricultural methods must be changed.
advanced, improved. The soil must be
made more produc tive; machinery must
be better understood and better applied,
and agriculture, like manufacture, will
bo divided and subdivided into special
ties.
Too much money is not put into fer
tilizers, but much of it is expended UNI
wisely. Cotton will not make way for
sheep, but by the aid OF sheep we will
increase our cotton crop to $4,000, 900
bales, costing little moro than 5000, 900
now cost
American farmers need to study the
success of the English and tho French,
adopting their discoveries to changed
conditions and to widely differing
climate. On a territory not great
er than Tennessee, North Caro-
lima and South Carolina, Great
Britain has forty sheep to our one
per acre; but we must remember that on
thai territory she has half as great q
population as we have in the United
States 1t is this population which
wants mutton; hence the sheep.
Little by little, notwithstanding an
enormous protective duty, sheep culture
has moved West; high prices for lands
press the sheep toward the setting sun.
Lands in the Central States are given
up to more profitable crops than wool.
This has been too general movement
and too long continued for us to suppose
it to be due to local or to temporary
causes. $50
But it may be that tho tide is now
changing. and that with growing de-
mand for mutton sheep.raising may be-
come more profitable. Let us hope so,
for any change that will add to the
money resources of the farmers of the
Central States, North and South, will
be most welcome. We should be glad
to have our readers throughout tho
South and West give their experiences
with sheep during the past five year,
with statement of the profit and loss
account. Home and Farm. ..
