most to the proportions of cloud
burst. The streets were soon
rushing mass of muddy water, and

the surface water fast enough to
prevent them from clogging with
rubbish that had accumulated on
the streets.
The rains this week have been
scattered, visiting different localities
in the county on the same day.
Every section of the county has now
reviving rains, doing

TEACHERS ARE CAUTIONED

There seems to have been de-

was the subject at the examinations
VI the various teachers of the State.
since this matter has been brought
eefofe the attention of the superin-
'ehdent of county schools, with the
suggestion that teachers be especial
~ instructed to pay particular atten-
Iien to this theme.
lie averages of many are said to
nave been cut down as a result of
helr lack of interest in the technical
question of this subject. AS a re-
euit there are agricultural examin-
ations being made in various coun-
lies with the result that the aver
ages are much better since special
souay has been INDUCED in. This is
SAID TO be one of the most important
subjects connected with the examin-
auons in this State, and it is de-
SIRED that all instructors be "well
Ieao when it is concerned in any
manner, since this instruction is inn
perative at this period.
