Agriculture In Public Schools.

The grange everywhere is in favor OF
nature study in the common schools
1t Is, however, noteworthy that there
is lack of unanimity in opinion as to
how best accomplish this much desired
end. a helpful suggestion comes from
the New York state educational de
partment along this line \ syllabus
on agriculture for use in elementary
grades of the public schools has been
issued and no doubt will be furnished
TO any one desiring to investigate the
subject.
One obstacle to the Introduction OF
the study of agriculture in the common
schools is the unpreparedneSs of the
teacher for the work. Asked if she
can teach it even in its most clemen-
tary branches, she throws up her
hands in despair But the New York
state educational department approach
es her from another side of the sub
ject and asks her to tell her pupils
about plant growth and something
about fruits and vegetables and the
commoneSt methods of their culture.
She thus gives her pupils something to
think about and write about, and what
they write is made a part of their En-
glish work. They are studying agricul-
tuTe ana the teacher is teaching it-Of
course in its most elementary forms
and yet it is being done as work in
English quite as much as work in az
riCulture.

An English View of HustIing.

We are often invited to admire the
speed Mt which American workmen
work. Is it admirable to see men old
before their time? Ought we to ad-
mire system which is calculated to
tax every mans energy up to the PAIN
limit, which forces him to exert him
self feyerishly, which wears away his
strength and his spirit and which filings
him aside as soon as these begin to
flag to make room for Il fresh human
machine? Hurry is coming to be con
sidered inseparable from efficiency.
Thousands of business men, and bust
ness women, too, are Oh the run from
morning till night 1t is bad, ths-bad
for themselves; bad for their work;
bad for other people. since it makes
them irritable and anxious, a nuisance
to all around them. Hustling. or, if
YOU prefer the other word. hurrying, is
the mark not of the strenuous worker,
but Of the muddlcr The man who new
err leaves his work alone never gets
any good work done More haste less
speed" says the proverb. That is bed
rock truth.-London Answers.
