Two Nature Study Books.

Two new books on Nature Study
have just appeared from the press
of Kinds, Noble & Eldridge, New
York City. One of these GLOW Ma
ture Study Should Be taught" by
Prof. Edward F. Bigelow of the
Teachers College, New York City.
with an introduction by j. r. Gordy,
Professor Pedagogy In the New York
University. Professor Bigelow is edi-
tor of the Nature Study Review, has
charge of the Nature Study work in
New York, and is one of the foremost
men interested in Nature Study in
the United States. He is firm be-
lever in Nature Study, and full of
enthusiasm concerning it.
His book does not contain subject
matter for the use of the teacher. but
rather suggests method and is full of
inspiration. The topics of some of
the chapters are asf ollows:
What is Nature Study-Winning
Love for Nature Study-Correlating
Nature Study-Love of Nature and
Love of Mother-Science is Not
Al-Commonplace Nature-School
Gardens-Nature Study in the Au-
tuna Plea for Walking-Books
and Nature-Inspiration of Nature
Study-How to Introduce Nature
Study.
The style of the book is delight
tul, and many sympathetic stories
are interviewer. No teacher can read
the book without having a greater
love for Nature Study, or without be-
ing made better teacher.
ANY teacher who is in need of an
inspiring book can find none better
than this by Professor Bigelow.

Canning for Home Use.

Nessrs. Editors There has been
much said in our agricultural pa
pers lately about the necessity of
canning the fruits and vegetables
raised on the farms and turning
them into money.
This is all right, but there is still
better side to this canning business
that has not been fully brought out.
The idea of selling the best of every
thing does not suit this writer. We
believe in supplying our own tables
first. The housekeeper who has her
pantry full of such things as canned
corn. string beans, butter beans,
okra. English peas, berries of all
kinds. peaches, apples, pears and 9th
or things too numerous to mention
for winter and spring use, is the most
independent woman living. She
knows that no matter who should
come in suddenly to dinner she is
prepared. And should no one come,
she has something good for home
folks whenever she gets ready, and
that means every day, if she has
provided plenty.
Did l say "she" has provided? /
didn't mean it exactly that way. /
am writing this from experience, and
| can truthfully say that my "house-
keeper" hasn't put up can in ten
years that some of us men folks
haven't had hand in.
Some men expect too much from
their housekeepers anyway, and if it
wasn't for getting off the subject, I
would give them ''hail Columbia" and
rub it in. But the thing is to have
these things, and plenty of them.
We plant one row of string beans for
summer; why not plant two, and put
one up for winter? / find these
things just as good in January as
they are in June. What can be bet
ter than to walk in to the table on
cold dreary days and find steaming
corn pudding, raw tomatoes to go
along with the bacon and beans, and
cream and peaches for dessert? Then
Just see how pleasing the "old wo-
man" looks. / am always glad / had
a hand in it. Of course if you have
more than you can use you call sell
them. L. ID. RANEY.

Matte Rose Crawford; William

lott. of Toronto and London, is
diametrically different from the book
mentioned above. 1t concerns itself
not at all or very little with inspira-
tion or method. It's general object is
to present to the teacher the subject
matter of Nature Study; to outline
detailed lessons on various subjects
for example, on feeling, seeing, hear
ing, smelling, handling, the COW, the
snake, the bee, the potato beetle, the
maple twig, the potato, bread, school
gardens, limestone, evaporation, rain,
dew, stars, etc., great variety of
topics is secured.
Quotations from a portion of a
chapter upon one of these subjects
will give a clear idea as to the style
of the whole book. "Page II, chapter
8. The Cat.-Observe the cat at your
home. Notice how it eats and drinks
its playfulness; it's gentleness; its
fondness for those who care for it;
its various movements, as walking,
springing and climbing; it's fondness
for a cozy spot; the sounds it's makes
and on what occasions; it's treat
ment of its young; its favorite posi-
tions whe nit sleeps, when it's watches
for its prey, etc.
A. Its Food and Drink.
1. (a) What kind of food and drink
does the cat like?
(b) How does it get meat off a
bone?
(c) How does it drink milk?
(d) Compare it with the dog in
these respects.
B. Its Mouth, Teeth and Tongue.
q. (a) Notice how far back its
mouth is extended.
(b) What advantage is this exten-
sion to the cat?
(a) Examine the teeth and infer
the purpose of the four long ones
near the front of the mouth.
(b) Note the suitability of the
teeth for grinding food.
4. Draw the open mouth of cat.
5. (a) Examine the tongue.
(b) Use a lens or the finger to dis
cover the roughness of the tongue.
(c) Give the cat bone with very
little meat on it; observe it eating
and infer the use of the roughness
of the tongue to the cat.
6. Draw the tongue"
Neither this book nor the one men
toned above is complete, but each
of them supplements admirably the
other, and the two taken together
make an excellent working team.
One objection to tabulated. classi-
fed, sub-divided, systematized out
lines, such as are given in this book,
is that they tend to reduce the whole
thing to science, and to rob Nature
Study of it's interest and inspiration.
They emphasize the information side
and minimize the idea of nature love.
This book, however. is full of ma
terial, and any good teacher can OBJ
tain suggestions from it to cover
many a days work.
