VIM. Il. CURTIS, the well known
correspondent of the Chicago Re
cord Herald, writes: "Farm life
should be made more attractive;
children should be interested in
the different branches of the
science of agriculture in order that
the next generation may have a
broader view and do their part in
the national development with
greater intelligence than the last
| believe that this can be done
as easily as the teaching of gram
mar aud languages, but the trouble
is that the teachers don't know
how, and before they can teach
they must be prepared The first
step is TO instruct the instructors.
They are prepared for their life's
work in normal schools, colleges,
and hence l am urging the intro
duction ola course in the simple
branches Of the science Of agricul.
ture in all the normal schools Of
the country, those which prepare
teachers for the public schools OF
the cities as we'll as for the rural
liastTets."

One of the best ways of improv-
ing and beautifying a town is to
interest the children in the work.
The plan was tried in a number of
towns and cities last year, with
the best results. In Cleveland
thousands of packages Of seed
were distributed in the schools,
and the pupils were taught how to
raise flowers and vegetables, the
care of lawns and the identifying

pany, places no limit on the mum.
Der of Chinese which be may bring

He also says that Mexico needs
thousands of Chinese to work her
mines and plantations.
The order of President Diaz is,
according to the statement Of the
immigration officials q matter OF
some import to the Mexican border.
1t is conceded among immigration
officers that the admission of the
hordes Of Chinese into Mexico will
not alone give them employment
as coolies on plantations and in
mine workings, but will ultimately
result in their getting across the
United States border.
