When ' l to cut Wheat.
El
. ,
A Missouri fanner sends his views
to the New York Farmer's' Club in
the -following language : "What is
the proper Stage of
. ripeness to cut
wheat ? „Fi ft y or sixty years -ago ,it i
y9u had asked a Pennsylvania Dutch
man this question he would ,have
said W it` en-de heads pegintOstoop.'
1 1 - --There is the whole secret ,in a nut
shell. Wheatmust become thorough
ly ripe before cut or • disaster is the
result. It has been the i custom for
many years past to cut wheat while
in, the dough. This custom was in
troduced • by incompetent millers,
who 'had, not the skill' to dress `their,
tuirrs so as to shave the flour off the'
bran without cutting it fine, hence
they recommended farmers to cut
green so the bran would . - be tough,
and they could gratify the rage for
white flour (or starch rather), when .
in fact,pirre matured wheat flour, is
. not white,lint of a yellowish cast.
. ..
This cast or color signifies the - oil
and aroma of pure -wheat fipur. It
signifies life and; vigor int, and was
the sign originally sought after. But
now all the rage is white flour, little,
;else Ink starch, a poor, sticky, clam- 1
my, tastelesastntf. This has-brought
upon us .1 train of evils, such, as smut,
rust, Hessian fly, weevil, chinch bug,
'.. etc. Can you recollect -ab Out What
time smut and ,rust . was introduced
,into. Anierica?. ' According to . .my
-
, i nto.
best-recollection -it was soon after we',
. had commenced Cutting our *heat
. green.• Now, if_ we should be dis
posed to get back to first print:Wes
.-- we find ourselves in a' dilemma, for
, we have little •eise but green cut
• wheat to propagate from, and it has
been demonstrated by naturalists
. f that no vegetation-is inclined
,to be-.
come any riper-than the seed - • that
, prciiliced• it ;it will arrive just at that,
state and then stop and dry np, and .
'it is called ripe; and if there is any
more sap it must be expended. in
. sonic other way, as in the wheat the
sap exudes front . the straw and forms
tnst,or scab on the straw. Then we
say our wh • t is injured by the rust,
which is au entire mistake. e L When
the wheat b , gins to ripen you can
. tell whether tke seed was ripe c.r not
-, in this -way: itfrom green 'seed, the
straw wilegin to turn yellow next
•
the;. head ; while that from -.pure
ripened seed will begin to turn: yel
low next the ground, and so advance
upward until it gets to the head :
- when the head begins to droop, and
then is the time to cut... But here
arises a dilema, we have not got the
-ripe seed to sow, and from such] "as
'
-we have we will never haye anything
- 'else. It is essy_to rotrograde,l limit
hard to get back - again. , I thi4.l
. candevise a plan to get back again to
. first principles.. You' no,doulit Have
_ noticed
.that,
,lhen. the wheat begins
. to ripen, some heads - ripen first. Well,
. those headS were produced from seed
that escaped' being cut -'''green. Se-
lect these heads, let them get
thordughly ripe, then cut
.them out
with a knife, preserve the seed and
sow again, and repeat this process
1 two or three times from the improved
seed, and you will have a 'seed that
will-pay *you - for all your trouble.
Thereafter be sure and let enough of
,
. your crop for seed , - - get thoroughly
ripe before cutting. The 'standard
weight of_wheat—sixty pounds to
- the-.bushel—was,- though very low,.
- made so'that the poorest could find
a market, • Now it is our best grades
only that come to the standard. • I
- . have raised wheat in three different
States that! averaged sixty-eight
Pounds to the bushel, struck stand
. and measure."' •
Wastes on the Farm: - /4
A•he greatest waste on the farm . is
tile not using of our,brain ; the greaff
est because of the bottom of all other
• wastes. A 'little thinking often saves
Much labor. 'After accomplishing'
-any piece of work, the most Of its can
look back and see how we could have
inproved on it if we had but thciught..
As. we \ review our crops of this year,
we se. •how they could have been
easily increased had we but thought.
The-:litCh (lug through our mead
. . ows was not done inithe most eco:-
nomical way. We dhg too deeply at
first, and did notallow for .the set
tling of the land ; hence a waste of
- labor. We orgy,ted buying an impli
. • meat that woad have saved nearly
its cost in one year's; use, until we
have spent much time in trying to
accomplish our work without it.
Pere we : have another waste. We
Carry a water pipe too near the
sur
face to save the expense pf digging
a trench 4f Safe-depth, and the win-.
tees frostinecessitates a replacement
of the pile -arid additional digging.
Certainly . % waste here. We allow
- the weedsito grow - on one piece of
land, not thinking to what propor
tions they would grow by the time
• the crops weie COcrVat - abvanced -to
. adinit the hide. A waste here which
I ; might have been obviated. And so
• wasies.little and bi g everywhere,
all arsing from our not thinking snf
fieiently—waste, because not necessa
. rye ' and essay obviated. We omit
the ordinary wastes from neglet,
from laziness, from want of appreci
ation for cleanliness and -thorough
mesa ; the wastes from 'our' stock,_
from our 'manure heap, from our
•
household. Verily, a little thought
will save to the farmer much ; and
the saving through the means, even
on a smalrfarm, will reprent the
interest on a considerable ':ca l pital.
•• The - waste arising from ignorance
. Can very readily be diminished,and are
in a large part inexcusable; those
„ arising from carelessness are not de
serving - of sympathy. The farmer,
as well as the business man, must use
• business ' . principles to secure .the
largest success, and -the one Shcitild
be as careful of. the outgoeS as the
other.—Scientifie Farmer.

" Whatsoever a man sowed', that shall
'he also reap," is a truth formulates' thous
ands'of years ago,, and it has been verified
through all the succeeding ages till the
present time. Beginning with the moral
faculties, and descending to the most or
dinary affairs in life we aro able.to forteU

the seed.. Mail reaps not when he has not

just as important a consideration .as the
quality. If we till the soil; we are satis
fied when the fruits of the 'earthretuni in
a fair ratio to our investment. Yet how
contradictory do our acts appear when we
compare the investment in educational ad
. antages with the amount we _expect in
ireturn. How severely economical we are
. in our investments for school 'purposes, .
compared with the results which we ex
pect. Here in our schools, we Claim to
lay the foundation for the future welfare
•of our children. The schools must teach

that the rising generation eau becothe all
that could be desired when 036,rue:ins for
their culture are so limited? Schools must
keep pace with the progress of the age if
they accomplish their end. The indiffer

IVe lead of the painter whose faculties
were quit- 3 460 in childhood by the-beau
tiful dixoratien of his home, of the musi
cian whose ear was attuned by the sweet
melody of his mother's lullaby, and of . tbe
eminent divine -whose pure life .had its be
ginning in a : home where reverence threw
holya influence around him in his tender
est tears.
And is buinan nature so different now ?
Do not God's creatures live, move, and
act froth the same principles in all ages?
Yes, we must acknowledge it. Music still
charms the car, art still delights the. eye,
and piety as ever before holds its gentle
sway over the passions of the human
brelst. Early impressions take deep root
in the morning of life, are a powerful in
t-hie:nee in the middle age, and governwith
au irresistible force when the physical ea-
tare declineS. The ideal of childhood be
coines.a thing of delinite shape in latter
life, and gives force and direction to :all
the sphere' tOf human action, " The b 6 . 1-
is indeed- the father of the man T—the
man who is to sharb in the respot
and benelits*,of 'society.
In view of these tipts, what oily it is .
for us to starve the'intellect as . a matter
of economy. How fearful, is the waste of
moral strengtliwhen we thus abridge the
means of moral culture. In the Place of
generous men with high aspirations and
noble impulSes, we are raising a class of
narrow minded, selfish individuals, actua
ted by the lowest motives, and with facul
ties blunted to every duty which they osVe
to themselves and to society. 'Let the
school room be made attractive, and you
thereby develdp those faculties which en
noble human nature. The fact that scbbol
rooms have better appointments than for
merly, need not be quoted as an argument
in favor of existing circumstances, while
we are so far from what the best interests
of ourxhildren demand, and so much be_
hind the resources of the country in Our
expenditures. The fields, of edUcation
must be'sown with a liberal ' hand, and
tilled wit per.severiKindusti 'if the har
vest is ro . inept our cxpectati .s. The
prejudice which clings to the p t, and
th‘a.varice which blinds the presen must
hotk_be swept away, and in their pia .s a
liberal friendship to the cause of ed 9 , -
tion will - soon take root, giving advan

which Ive live. -
HOW TO SPEND VACATION
Teachers are only mortal, men and wo
men, at the very hest, 'and hence, as oth
ers, th , ..y need rest, • - change of air, mid
perhaps, of. snrroutidings. There is no
work, unless it. its preaching and editing a
live paper, that, fwhen well followed, is so
wearing and taxing as is this same peda
gogical profession. -
-
Many plans for spending the summer
vacation ,with pleasure, and profit have
been developed, from time to time, but
we know of none that combines so much
-of pleasure, inspiration, and culture, as is
likely to come from a new movement ori
ginated by the Dansville. hygienic Semi
nary. The plan is as follows,—and we
mention it somewhat in detail because we
know that many of our fellow-teachers
would like to - avail themselves of this op
ptirtunity.
A-corps.of excellent teachers of Europ
ean culture have been secured to give speL ,
cial instruction to teachers, during the
summer vacation of July and August, in
any and all branches that they may wish
to, acquire move thoroughly. The inspi
ration of a large number is t ,wanted to give
interest to the work, and to assist in pi o
curing these, the excellent boarding ac.
'commorlations .of this institution are
thrown open. to Teachers at very moder
ate -price. • A pleasant place has been
Chosen, Dansvifle, N.'l'., "Situated at the
head e of the : famous Genta4 yalley, and
affording almost every variety of scenery.
A course of Ice:tures On stlbjeets -inter
esting to teachers, daily talks on subjects
relating to physiology and hygiene, and
the philosophy of thing made practical in
the diet and general habits, are among
the facilities for general instruction. In
fact, a practical lesson that feW teachers
now observe will be ,here inculcated.
namely, how teachers can savelliciuvital
force, bow they May so relate themselves
to practical, domestic life that they may
avoid the nervousness and debility that
'too often come as a penalty upon the most
earnest teachers. - • ,

AN INCIDENT IN MY HISTORY CLASS.
Something funny cattle up in my class, a
tittle while ago,--only please don't credit
it to Connecticut. The history class were
reciting upon Pennsylvania, and, as-usual,
had sorrie.hing of'their own to offer upon
the subject. One young man asked, in a
rather skeptical tone, ifit was really true
that William Penn, was lever obliged to
shoot an apple, with an arrow, from the
head of his son to save his own life. A
sympathetic young lady, with- the evident
intention of delivering herclassmat© from
the mortification of his blunder; made ev-
dent by an irrepressible, though subdued
:nigh,- said hurriedly hive road
hat when Penn first entered Philadelphia,
e.carried a loaf of bread under eacb arm;
and that he was ridiculed by a' young la
dy, who afterward became his wife."
When the three heroes had been put upon.
their respective pedestals and duly_label
ed, we all had a gbod laugh.—Journal of
