U How to Plow Well. • The Western•Rtiral gives the fol lowing directions for ploughing; wbielimre as nearly perfect as lan .gutiee without illustration can Ili*: "There - are three principal things necessary to') good ploughing—first, the ability td properly_ guide a team; second, knowledge and tact to ar range the plough to the work inband; - and, third, an intelligence in gang ., sing the barrow slice and - properly taming the furrow. These being :learned, the rest ikeasy. "The greatest difficulty with ploughmen -is _in laying oat and ~,finishing the lands. Thin being pro perly - Understood, the act of plough sing.becolmes simple enough. Let as give one easy, efficient and ordinary plan : Set a line of light stakes across the field; gauge the reins so that, when placed on the heath handle of the plough, it the point where it is • 'arasped.by the hand, the team being lin motion, they will jest bear kindly 'on the hits: of the horse's. Place the tenor so that the line of vision will lbe over the mould-board .of the plough and between the horses to jthe stages. Set the plough so that it willjurn a farrow from ont.half to three-quarters the depth the land is to be ploughed; grasp the lines with tom: o, fingers the leftAandi at . the tear' -ot left Aide of the handle- so • that, when the rein is pulled straight - back, there will be leVeragnenotigh against the handle. kith the o.ff rein_ to draw both alike. 'Ems, Prilling slightly to the left Will swerve the team to the right, aid easing ton the rein will . tiring , thdni to the left: A eteady"'rein will keep thr-m • straight; and, however fresh the team may be, if steady, no trouble be experienced in keeping them - in v. - direct line to do good work There is: no other plan that we have • ever tiiedby-which a team is under SO cohtrol:. Some practice is, required by the ploughman to do: goo:1 work, but less than by any other, plan, not even excepting the: Irish way of grasping a .rein in each handwhile holding the plough. . 'KeePing the eye directly along the sJakes, seek to so plough them . down that they shall fall- sideways. Upon reaching a spike, do not stop, but - continue to the end of the furrow: Bringing_ the tam _directly about; gauge the plough to cut the fall depth you wish to work. Turn the next and the prc;.vious one into - the fr.rrow_,already opened, stopping at each: stake -to place them for the P leLd; and thus proceed until .y s, - 1 have rea - ehed the starti - _ , g, point!. one more • about, drawing -t-vo more - jf arrows.

I"Each bolt about the plough should fill the holes,,and every - nut should be drawn. tight. The beam should he indirect line of draught, so that, when the - team is going forward, the plough will -cut its ordinary furrOw g'iiide pin. in the centre hOle 4,f the beam; and, when the side ;of the plough' ; is running level, the lice shall turned naturally, and perfectly in the preceding furrow. If this he carefully attended to, 'tirly :intelligent man can be taught in half a day on clear land, to do fair work in ploughing, by instructing him in holding the-- plough, ganging and - turning the furrow, and in bringing =the team and, plOugh about at the q't is even more difficult to finish liland neatly and well than to lay it qnt —ln laying Rut, the principal is to, see that the' team drags 'cven, and -L walks . directly forwaid. Not only must this be observed,'bnt, having a strip equal to • two ftirroW 'slices; the plow should be . gaguedl to t ako a fur ow only two-thirds the tiisnal depth.

Of.the county, "and then publishing it In some cone• ty papa. fie was therefore not in favor of the .resolution. Supt. Heeney—Said he also thought the resolution was impracticable. The County Superintendent could not perfennpre work required by the :again tien ; for the Superintendent might go into a school .at the Seginning of the term and And everything in gocd shape, and eo endorse it on the teacher's cer titicat4, but before the term is over, that teacher may he a perfect tenure; and the Superintendent would then be charged with partiality or incotripe tenCy,ivhen he did as wall as he could. The - county ls too ' large for the Superintendent to 'visit the achoos °Bib enough to form a correct Idea of the success with which a teacher meets in school. He was not in favor of the resolution, because he thought it could not be carried out. ' Relolutirix laid on the table. Reiolved. That each of our common school teaboere should, receive. from the State. towards paying tui tion While attending any school, as much as the CT ersgo,cost of a student at the normal school for the sametime. - - Prof, Quinlan said the State made certain &ppm prtations to armlet those who wished to become teachers, and that the State saw fit to confine It to certain institutions, known u Normal SchOPla, in different parts of the State; and he thoiaght to a certain extent, made Vincational monopolise of those institutions of learning; and that the State should extend the same privilege to other Matto tiona of learning ; and to teachers who could not afford to go away from home to receive instruction to At then' for teachers. Pennsylvania should be as liberal as New York is in thistespect. 'Supt. Keeney, said he -thought if the teachers could receive the same instruction in Towanda, Athens, Troy or Canton, that they can at the Nor mal Schools, the State should — help the teachers In . the same manner that it does at the Normal schools. Ho hoped there could be some steps taken to help our teacher a mcre generally. Wm. Horton said he heartily approved of the res. °lotion; for by this method many worthy young men and women could receive instruetion, and pre: pare for teaching, that are_not able_to do moulder the present system. J.! A. Wilt said this was a very line; theory/ to con template—that the state should glee each teacher in the State the same assistance that it doesiiithose pt the Normal school—but thought it was tasking a little too much of the State. Thought the State was doing al Ale, could to educate teachers and schol ars.' Thought if a teacher had energj and peree vereAtoe. be or she would suffixed with the present tigestarree. 1 Ez Supt , ChubbliCk said he thought the.lformal schools goid institutions, and were reaping great benefits from their work, bat thought the State n uances were not in a condition to do what the res.' °lotion asked.. , Thought the State was doing all she could nndet the-circumstances, Prof. Criapell said he lived the resolution would *adopted, for it would open' the field, to many seorthyyoung persons, who are now groping along in'the dark for want of assistance, and this would promote education and consequently lessen crime. fiesolution adopted., • itesolred, That the Legislature should adopt the recommendation of the State Supt., namely. that the County Supt.. be paid fl per aquae mile of his county, and $2 per school visited. A P. Nichols .sald that he -thought the salary o the County Superintendent of this conty should ee . retied; and that there were about 1170 square miles in Bradford county, and if the Superintendent could visit all the 375 schools, It would bring the salary up, to f 1.920 per year. to which he would add enough to make it 12,000, which lee considered it fair corn :, pensation: ;Prof. Hillis sail he thought the salary should be raised, and the two dollars - for every school visited Would have a tendency to stimulate the Stipt., so that all the - schools would be visited once in each yam. . !Prof. Horton said he was not in favor of the reg. elution. because he thought there were men in the county who were able to All the office of Co. Supt., and who were willing to do It for what others had done it. There were men In the County, who did not only look at the money, but had the benefit of the human race at their heart; he would, therefore, oppose the resolution. „ W. H. Thompson said he thought the Co. Supt , Nims receiving u much salary Nis the farmer, so cording to the capital Invested. That the farmers were not so rich here as in Berke, Lancaster and hiongomery counties, end therefore looked upon this salary question differently, from- what our farmers did.. He felt Wished that the salary would hot be mired at the next convention. H. J. Madill said he was very glad this quistlon dime lap for discussion, ter at first he thought the salary was high enough, but since listening to the arguments he was inclined to look upon it differ. ently, re saw at the present salary's cultivated mind, sad aktil. itteaching was to be placed on a level with the person who had to cut brush and pick Stones; the Co. Supt , should receive as mud! pay its the President Jude, for it required as much teaming and more hard labor, and be Was therefore in favor of having two Co. Superintindenti, and paying each from two to three thousand dollars a fear. tie hoped the directors would look at thta !natter in its proper light, and ratee the salary, at the next convention. ( I. McPherson said be thongbt the present astir.► too low- for the labor to be performed, and hoped the resolution would be adopted and acted upon by the next convention. Prof. Pitcher said he thought it was rather a dell 'este subject to discuss, for those who expected to be Candidates, and he would not say t:af be would do t for the present salary; be would nq say whit be ; Would do it for; no man in the conntt r eould do the amount of labor that was required. beaus, the Co. ;was to large "for one man to do it jutiee; thought ;tbe directors would be .likely to say who they went. !ed for their next Co. Supt., and how much they 'would glee him. o Supt.Seeney said there were man* mountains in Bradford Co., and that some of the schools were on '; the top of some muddy them; others were in the val. leys; there were muddy coals, too, And to,ge: to all . the schools required horse-liesh,.buggies, and time, and by the time these expenses ware taken out of the salary, there 'was not *ten as Much left as-the ordinary fsraterksys by Ina year. J A. Wilt said he understood the resolution to be a recommendation of State Supt., for the purpose of Suing some basis so as to equalize the solarise of Co. Gupta. throughout the State; but the State Su perintendent's recommendation did not contain the last word of the resolution, "visited;" thought that word should not be in the resolution, for it would give the Supt. a variable salary; was in favor of raising the salary to $2.000; but would object to the resolution with the word ”visited." Roped there would r he some means adopted by which the sala ries could be proportional to the tabor .to be per- formed. th roughout the State. Resolution carried. j , Resolred, That the salary of experienced and efd cleat teachers should be increased one-third. • This resolution was discussed by Beardsley, Bor. eon, Quinlan, D. A. Ocitrton, Esq., Criapell and prawford, on the st-rnattio, and W. ff. Thompson sad J. Andrew wilt on negative. The affirmative claimed that itiworild cease many persons who are suemssfrit and efficient in teaching to reimin teacher*, and not only follow it until they got al better chalice at some other business which would pay, but it would have a tendency to cause more to male teaching a life-work, provided teach ing 'Was as remunerative as'other occipations; there was not distinction enough made between the poor of teachers and the successful and caking ono; that we were not paying simairch to teachers as they were paying in adjoining counties, and .he result was, that our (pot teachers were leaving us and going where they could receive better pay for their labor. The Negative claimed they were 111 avok of better. Pay tor the su c cessful teachers, b thought that vas a matter which would bi regulated by the de. :nand.
