learn on so practical a subject. If
our farm boys could be taught so to
balance rations as to increase the
yield from our COWS just ten per
cent, then forty million dollars
would, without additional cost, be
annually gained in America.
1t is not worth while to multiply
examples. 1t is clear that in max
ing any sort of labor more intelli-
gent you make it more economi-
cal and efficient. Hence you in
crease the wealth not only of the
laborer, but of the country.
"Perfect agriculture" says the
great Liebig, sis the true founda-
tion of trade and industry-it is the
foundation of the richest of States"
Ignorance is the most costly COM
modify ever on the market.
In the second place, agriculture
should be taught in our schools for
its cultural value. 1t is not enough
for a man to know that cowpeas in
crease the fertility of land. He
should know how they do this just
as he is taught in geography how
the earth turns on it's axis. He
ought to know why deep plowing
makes better crops just as he knows
how to work a problem in arithme-
tic. As an intelligent being his
happiness and his power will be in
creased by knowing how bacteria
make milk sour, how germs assist
in cheese-making, how ashes help
plants, why drainage is good for
soil, how plants feed and drink, how
fertilizers are used, and countless
other facts that are as easily taught
as the facts of history or geography
and are far more entertaining and
useful.
Where Agriculture Should be Taught.
This subject has been assigned to
the Fifth Grade. However. in
schools that are not strictly graded,
classes may be formed to include
all students old enough to be inter
ested in so vital study.
agriculture has been taught that it
is not a dry subject. Children be-
come more interested in it than in
any other of their studies if they
are encouraged to work out simple
exercises and thus to use their own
observational powers. Teachers will
find that the subject will be delight
and recreation to their pupils. 1t
should be borne in mind that such
simple exercises as are suggested
in the text and in bulletins take lit
tie or no time in preparation or in
presentation, that they cost moth
ing, and that they will alike rest
tired teacher and tired pupil, and
that, best of all, they will sharpen
habits of seeing things at first hand
and habits of original thought
Some Reasons Given for Not Teaching
Agriculture.
Some teachers say, "I cannot
teach my pupils how they should
plow, hoe, ditch, SOW, harrow, reap,
thresh, milk, churn, make butter,
feed animals, and do the countless
things done on a farm
The answer to this objection is
found in the fact that the law re-
quiring you to teach agriculture did
not and does not expect you to do
this. Most of these things can be
learned only on the farm, and many
of your pupils already are familiar
with the simple mechanical opera
tions.

Consumption

Consumption is practically in
durable, but the cause, even to an
advanced stage, is durable. Catarrh
is responsible for every case of con-
sumption everknown. Consumption
is generally spoken of as the great
white plague and the enemy of the
white race, but / believe neglect is
the peoples greatest enemy, when
every case of consumption might
have been cured in the beginning by
taking RECALL MUcU-ToNE. No
person in my opinion ever had con-
sumption who did not have it begin
with Catarrh, and no one who ever
used Mucu-Tone ever failed to effect
azure. The reason is clear enough,
too Mucu-Tone is a catarrh rem
edy that strikes right at the cause.
Catarrh is caused by a germ in the
blood, Mucu-Tone is a germ de-
stroyer, and first of all destroys the
germs of Catarrh, then it tones up
the tissues that have been ravaged
by the catarrhal parasite, and in
that way prevents the germs of con-
sumption from ever getting start.
Besides this it is a wonderful appe-
tier and flesh builder You begin
to "put on" flesh just as soon as
you begin the treatment. Ihave no
other medicine that I recommend SO
often nor SO largely - in fact / guar
antee large trial bottle that sell
for fifty cents to give results or I
refund you the price. Try big
trial bottle to-day on my personal
recommendation.

EARL IN A NEW ROLE
ESSEX IS ELECTED TO LONDON
 COMMON COUNCIL.
: Lordship Abandons Reckless Extrav. agance in Order That He May Ac- complish Something Really
 Useful to People.

London.-If United States senator should seek election to board of al dermen in any American city it would be thought that he had fallen low ir the political world. But such matters are judged by a different standard here. When peer seeks election tc the London county council-the central governing body of this huge metropolis it is regarded as evidence of a com. mendable desire on his part to play a useful role in public life. As heredi. tary legislators the occupants of the upper house are not held in high esteem. The newspapers pay little at. tentlon to their speeches. Their clliet function is to keep the commons from going ahead too fast.
 No less an authority than Lord Rose bery, who was chairman of the first London county council, declared that member of that democratic body had far greater opportunities of rendering good service to the community than a member of the house of lords. There fore when Rt. Hon. George Dev- ereux de We're Capell. earl of Essex, announced his intention of running for the London county council. as a representative of the borough of Marylebone, it was regarded as proof that his lordship's desire to accomplish something that should be accounted as good works in life which hereto fore has been more conspicuous for private extravaganza than for public service. So his friends warmly con- graduated him on his election.
 There is no doubt that this salutary change in Lord Essex has been brought about by the influence of his wife, who was formerly Miss Adela Grant, the daughter of Beach Grant, of New York. It is said that the title of countess of Essex has been borne invariably by beautiful women, statement that is abundantly substantiated by the an- cient family portraits that adorn the halls of the family seat at Cassiobury, in Hertfordshire. The American Lady Essex will compare favorably with any of her predecessors among the chate- laines of the noble house. At the cor
