TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.
A lnpsrtaat Gathering Of Emmons
cssaty Psdasogues In Llaton.

The teachers' association for the
teachers Of this county was held Fri
day and Saturday Of last week. About
thirty teachers we're present. Onac-
count OF the great distance many OF
the teachers we're unable TO be pres
ent. Hereafter the association will be
held Ia Hazelton for the teachers OF
that section and In Strasburg for the
teachers Of the south end. Many Of
the schools are closing every week
now, and the number of teachers is
becoming smaller
Various topics Of interest were dis
cuased. The teachers heartily ex.
pressed their thanks for whatthe school
0mcers ere endeavoring to do, and ex-
pressed their determination to do
their share toward bettering the
schools of the county. One OF the
topics taken up was Parents Meet
ings." The teachers voted to have
these meetingsin their varioussclosls,
to prepare suitable programs, and to
thus endeavor to get acquainted with
the parents Of their respective schools.
The following topics we're given:
English In the Grades" B. NJ.
Hardenbrook,
"How to Study a Poem,' Mrs. Les
ter Briggle.
"Supplementary Work In Geography
and History Anna NJ. Koltes,
"H0w to Secure Punctuality, Net

Miss Jean F. McCulloch gave an H.
lustration to the teachers Of Pres
entation Of Fractions. This was an
important paper, in that it presented
| tonic In which the rural oftentimes

The paper by Prof. + II. Hankins,
ssThe Teacher and the Parent was
| an excellent one, and one that the
| teachers seemed to think expressed
their ideas exactly. They voted TO re-
quest the papers OF the county to
print IL, that every parent and teacher
may got the opportunity OF reading It.
It would do much toward bringing
the teacher and the parent together.
The meeting adjourned at noon.
The teachers felt that they have a
common interest with the parent, and
vent away determined to do all they
can to bring about the best results in
the schools Of this county.

Farm Notes.

For hogs rape has proven to be
great feed.
Broilers shrink about half pound
each when dressed.
Rape is an excellent forage for both
beef and dairy cattle.
Prune and spray If you want good
fruit. Now is the time.
The she'll of an egg contains about
fifty grains of salt of lime.
Forty dressed ducklings are packed
in barrel for shipment.
From thirty-five to forty ducks and
brakes are allowed in pen.
The duck averages ten dozen eggs
in about seven months laying.
Sheep also like rape and thrive
when allowed liberal supply.
An apple grower in Ohio credits his
extra large and fine crops of apples
to faithful and persistent spraying.
When cultivating the plum or
cherry orchard, the work must be
done shallow that no roots will be
broken, for broken roots send up
shoots that sap the life of the tree.
When we see so many farmers
wives with none of the modern con-
veniences of the dairy. to tighten her
burdens, is it any wonder we hear so
many say it does not pay to make
butter?
A wound made while removing a
limb heals best If the cut is made
close to the trunk or branch. A stub
few inches long does not heal and
becomes lodging place for spores
Of fungi and bacteria which cause de-
cay and death of the tree.
For soiling purposes, or where rape
is cut and fed to the stock, 1t should
be drilled in rows wide enough apart
to admit of horse cultivation. It win
then grow to large size and is more
convenient to get at in cutting. Do
not cut it closer than five or six inches
Of the ground. as it grows up again
SO much more quickly than when
cut close.

CAPTURE OF VERA CRUZ
Anniversary Of an American Triumph
In the War With Mexico.

In the War With Mexico.
During the war between Mexico and
this country, Gen. Winfield Scott, with
an army of about $4,000 Americans,
landed in the vicinity of Vera Cruz, on
March 8, 1S47 and Immediately invest,
ed the city, which, with the castle OF
San Juan de Ulloa, contained a garri-
son of about 4,500.
Scott demanded the surrender OF
the city and fortress, which was re-
fused and then tried to induce the au
thorities to send the women and chill
dren out of the city, but this also was
refused. On March 22, assisted by g
fleet under Commodore Conner, Scott
began a bombardment which contin.
ued with but little intermission for
four days, the shells doing great dam
age and causing much loss of life. On
March 26 the Mexican commander
made overtures for surrender and on
the goth that event took place. The
Mexicans marched out to a plain
about mile from the city, and there
laid down their arms, gave up theii
flag, and retired to the interior on pa
role. The city and fortress, with 50(
pieces of artillery and large quantity
of munitions Of war, passed into the
possession of the Americans. Durins
the siege the Americans lost but Il
killed and Sc wounded, while the Mex
leans lost fully 1000 in killed and 6
large number of wounded.
