In all; cases _Where soils contain

of green
,minure in an acre of red
clover is almost incredible. • Oti the
.very poorest land enough can be.pro
ducecl, if utilized andrightly applied,;
to greatly enrich the soil.• I see it

that 'Professor Gedzie in a .chemtcal
. test, claims to have found one piece
Of heavy June grass, (grass and roots
together,) containing, more than one
,Lund cell tons per acre. If-this state-.
ment is correct, but few farmers have
even a proper conception of the act

add to the soil by ploughingunder a

It comes to us freight& on every

apply it with the greatest: accuracy:
Thee' let me close by saying that
We believe that to fill our soils! with
a , mass of -grass and clover roots and
'other vegetable matter ; is -to make
our lands fat, so that they:will pay a
goOd rent to the owner and tiller; it
!is to increase the fertility of the soil,
by feeding and\ fattening_ it, .as we
.believe it, may be Made fat in sod and
in manure, as easily as, we, can make

G. W. Ryan, Principal Of_ Toiranda
Public Schools, conducted thii devotional
exercises,' • and was eluded Secretary. •
John R. French; •was then In
troduced asiraicipal ingtrnctor. -Any at
tempt to giy,o , a :report of the sessions;
short of a yeibatim one, must be largely
unsatisfacto6 and unjust to the instruct
ors. Teachers able 6 attend, yet:failing
to be present and avail tbemlselves of the
valuable instruction presented by Dr.
French,--would scarcely have the interest
to - react-.a report Annexed, however,
will be found a brief outline elf the Insti
tnte work, the seeing and hearing of
which are necessary to its comprehension
and appreciation. , •
-The history of Teachers' Institutes and
their beneficial results, were sketched by
Dr. French, amtthen'Methods of School
Organization, claiming under last subject
That no teacher can prepare a complete
programme in advance of entering- a
school, yet should have au order in which
to call classes, prepared. That when a
'complete programme is finally prepared,
it should be copied in State. Register and
left on walls of school room - for the next
teacher's benefit. That records of each
pupil's work, and the point l .to which he
advances, should also be left' for the next
I teacher, that the successor May carry for
ward the wet*, arid not tern children
back untilafter a•time it ;is found neces
sary. That sarcasms and criticisms,relk,
tive to preceding teachers, Aimild not be
indltiged l ifr to pupili. That classes be
called by new teacher during first day in
same order aa‘by the preceding. teacher.
That each member of a class when called,.
first time, write upon slip of paperhis
name, age, and such information as the
teacher may require in organizing the
school. The class to hate lesson assigned
for study and be dismissed.- Each class
treated the same, until - whole school is
organized.
That the remits from following gig pie
ceding temporary organization areTfairre
diate and profitable employment, and or
der of recitation.
That to secure proper emplcirlient for .
pupils in schools, the directors and teach
ers should prepare and adopt a conmag

That teachers avoid • cramming pupils .
with too much technical grammar before.

Dr. French address d the teachers lip
ed 'the subject, "Length of Time for

•
That, the child's physical and mental

'must receive it often. Older pdpils more
at once and 4 less (regnant. •SO it is a ith

THE WONDERFITL,UFFP.CTS OF EIj:CTRO
SILIUON UPON THE HUMAN' StSTEII,
I had a defect In three of mv angers, which wets
bent or shut up in my hand in such a mann6r by
the contraction of the cords, that= they :were Very*
troublesome to me in my daily avocation, could
not 'handle my- tools as wished, and often
thought that I would have them cutoff to get them
out of my way. - I bad used everything that offered
any hope of relief, but all tit no affect, Well, 1 say,
I was working with °Electro.SW.con at the forge,
and of eottlwe could not preventita coming ip con
tact with my hands.
I took no notice nE.the effeet It had produced,
until one day whahitig to u.se - a heavy hannuir, I
graspi s ,d it with my crooked hand, and much to.my
surprise I found my crooked angers straighten
out, and I had as nsuch use of them. as ever. .1
could hardly belidirktuyeyes. I stiovied my hand to
my wife and fandlyi and a general - 1 - t•JoiClug was

Sty next step was to discover some. mean; by
which I could combine this wonderful substance so
that everylxsty could use it. I madedlligent search
through every nook that I thought would throw any
light upon the subject, and at last. in a very old'
medical book'..l found a way by which I could do It.
The result was perfectly satisfactory, 'noir I was
able to make a liniment; the like the world hai
never seen *fore. I now begaurto fOok about . me
