what Shall We Teach the Young.

Agriculture should be taught in all
well. says the Farm and Ranch. The true
object of teaching the young is to i'm
bue their minds with elementary truths
and train them in the use of such truths,
as 4 foundation for the Education"
which Is completed only when death or
senility writes a period after the last
completed sentence. Strange as it may
SEEM the most important facts in ma
ture have been the most neglected in our
curricua. A man may corner wheat and
thus tax the bread-eaters to the extent
of millions of dollars, and yet be an ig-
noramus, who knows nothing of the laws
of nature which has made wheat possible.
The society pet may pay IS for. bouquet
for his best girl, and yet, If he knows
not whence the flowers came, and by
what weans, his name belongs in the in
Vulnerable category of sap-heads, who
know about as much of the facts that
concern him as the little city girl who,
on visit 10 her aunt in the country re-
fused the milk because it had "a thick
yellow scum on it," There can be no bet
ter way to broaden the youthful mind,
than to give it a knowledge of the fun
damental principles and processes that
account for the food VIC eas, the clothes
we wear and the facts that confront us
every day of our lives.
can a youth grow to maturity, with no
knowledge of how plants grow, how they
are nourished; how species and varieties
originate; what elements enter into their
nutrition, and by what means these ele-
ments are assimilated; the effects of po-
lination, in the production of new varie-
ties, budding and grating; the charac-
teristics of the different soils, and the
effects upon growth of fertliZ.ng and Gull
ovation; and the effects upon plants Of
the work of insects. both injurious and
beneficial-can he be uniformed upon
these subjects, and escape the stigma Of
gross ignorance? The field of agriculture
is broad one, and only elementary prin
ciples are necessary for others than prac-
zeal farmers. But these elements are ne
cessary for the complete preparation of
the youthful mind for the acquisition of
knowledge which is the proper office of
the common schools Such training is also
necessary for self-protection. When
green-horns are humbugged by nursery
agents with peach grated on mesquite
so they will stand drouth, - and innumer-
able similar frauds, it only emphasizes
the fact that people who have no knowl-
edge of the principles of agriculture,
land their money, are soon parted" No
matter If the youth never plants a seed
or reaps a harvest, he needs a knowledge
of the fundamental principles of agricul-
ture, as a protection against those who
know more, but lack integrity.

a SIGN OF .PnosPERITN.

Twin C1ty~ News Fhere mas been sold
about 800 mules in Telfair county this
wear. From one point of view this is a
bad showing. We ought 10 raise our own
mules just as we do our steers. which can
be done Just as cheaply But there is an
other side TO the question so far as the
present year is concerned. 1t is said that
there has been more land cleared for cul-
tivstion this year than ever known in the
county before Fences have been set out
old fields reclaimed, and large bodies Of
new land taken in. 1t can be seen on. ev-
cry side-increased acreage calls for more
mules When We recur to the last census
figures. which gives Telfair an increase
of s. per cent in population, this large
sale of mules need not cause alarm. The
past two or three years have been mark
ed by large influx Of settlers; they must
have mules to clear the land We are
rather inclined to rejoice at the mule
trade in Telfair. 1t denotes prosperity

Florence Times: Some of our contem-
poraries assume that the tide of feeling
against McLaurin is changing because
the papers that condemned him so round
ly for deserving the Democratic party are
now praising him for his work for the
Charleston exposition. The wish may be
father to the thought, but as a matter
of fact those papers that were sincere in
condemning MCLaurin for his wlful sins
are tine most delighted that they can find
something to praise in his conduct II
gives no good newspaper pleasure to
wholly condemn anybody but we may
all abhor evil and praise good at the
same time in the same man The tide
