Teaching Agriculture

A. " Storm specialist in agricultural education, at
the University Farm writes upon the teaching of educa
tion for the Farm News:
'The teaching of agriculture the public schools is
not fad but the inevitable result of development.
We have been making progress in this direction for four
hundred years the has arrived when the promotion
of education in scientific agriculture must be conducted
through the public schools well through the special
agricultural schools that have been established
Agricultural colleges experiment stations, technical
schools of agriculture. agricultural papers. farmers in
stitutes short courses and other similar activities have
accomplished much but they are insufficient without
the aid Of the public schools The study of agriculture
has distinct value mental training which improves
the quality of the school work sufficiently to justify its
if we disregard the great vaule of the information
obtained.

shown be groundess because it is actually being taught
and very successfully in great many places Certain

work in agriculture making and other subjects

sin the rural schools the many thiAgs that may be
done studied include counting the stand of corn saving
and storing seed judging contrasting. planter
testing, preparing the seed for the planter. the
preparation of the seed bed, growth of

THE ST. TAMMANY PARISH FAIR.

All progressive people in every sec
ten CT the country take an active
interest in county and State fairs,
for the reason that they cannot be
progressive without fairs. At the
fair an opportunity is given every
man to show what he has accomplish
ed in his efforts towards rails .ng
stock, fruit growing, vegetable grow
ing, canning, ETC., and each man prof
its by what the other man has done.
The mixing OF ideas and realities
gives all a higher mark at which to
aim IN agriculture and when we bet.
ter agricultural conditions we better
everything Now, it is the Intention
of the fair to interest the farmer and
benefit him, and l most earnestly
hope that every farmer in this parish
will take an interest in the fair again
this fall which will be held at Cow
ington. Last fall there were not
enough exhibits, because people did,
not take the fair to heart as they
should have done. Let us try to
make the fair better this fall. Be-.
gin to make preparations now by
trying to grow some fine crops and
bring sample to the fair. Have q
variety of crop samples and make it
interesting to yourself and every one
else.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have
rumbling sound of imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation san be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
