J'robably it 'can .be done rit the west and ' southwest. Even gie improved; stock can be grown profitably.; but, with ordinary . - aative cattle. this -cannot be done. It 'costs more to keep an ordinary ca lf till it is one, two, or three years old than the animal is worth at either If the .calf is a heifer, and Of i'f'Ood milking strain, It will usually cell for more at two years old with i 'aealf - than a steer at the same age. 7lnt this' does not make a pro&able -I;usiness,'even with the best 'success . in breeding. If the cow should prove' failure of milk or butter, as native 21 - om the best strains erten do, there is theloss of dnothei year's keeping 7 , efore the animal; can be' fit for the butcher. • I Tne principal,losi Is in keeping the ealf - till it is a year old. Very often a fat calf at six or eight weeks will - "sell for about as much as the sabre - :-;:nimal kept a ykar longer.. It is a 'mistake to Suppose that calves can :be kept cheaply in - good thrifty con, iition.• A good ddal may be done -vitt' oatmeal made into porridge as a substitute for. milk; but if we count the labor and time lost in feeding, the calf will be a . dear one after a year of such :keeping. If not fed well he first year, the calf will soon be come unthrifty, 'and can never :be Made a good. siaituaL • Milkmen_ never . raise their own' cows, and the same used to be true of butter and cheese dairymen. The increasing &faulty. - of buying the choicest dairy cows has forced some good dairymen to raise them ; but `,Alley all consider the method a costly . une, more costly than they could af. ford if they had any other alterna tive. For a good milk cow, known ,to , he a - deep and continuous milker,. 'shreird dairymen will offer what - may seem to many , ,,farmers an almost fab-: nlous price. They can well afford to Flo so; Tire cheapest native cows I e'er knew, were two which my fath-- cr bought years and years ag o, pay,' lag the seemingly extortionate' price. of $99 for one, and $lOO for the oth cr. One was four and the other five • years old. They proved to be really remirkable milkers, holding to their milk• through the year. One time!, one of the cows was I(by mistake) 7u liked till -the day shecalved. 'Ursa: Idly a rest of three to five weeks was given without milking; The heifer calves of these cows ,were all good milkers, and Most of them kept up the supply of milk till .near calving. Of suck cows I need' hardly - say that the calves should all be raised, unless I cry evidently 'inferior. It costs a little more to keep al, _ good milking cow than a, poor one.' The difference in product is some imes enough in a single *year to pay the price of a good cow, rather* than tin accept a poor ,milker as a gift: The time that a cow ;will go" dry is often tynatte.r of great importance; .Some cows which yi b 1 a ,fair mess at first will not-milk more than six or seven months per year.. ,Such a cow is scarcely worth owning, except to fatten for :beef. The., length cif . time .a cow may be. milked depends ' much on previous mana g ement. If n heifer is milked a ft er h er first calf as !Ong as possible, and has good • milk-producing food to stimulate the flow of milk. she will retainthis _it through. life. More care should be : . taken in feeding awl' milking heifers on this account. Give them roots, and milk as long as a drop can be .rot. I like to have' heifers .eome in the first time when not over two years old, and. a little younger if pos . sible.', Then let them go -farrow-sev .- eral months, so that the . heifer may get greater.scze, and. also let milk se cretion run - On as long as possible, unchecked by a new pregnancy., In this' ay, if a heifer is naturally a good milker, she has the best chancc • to test her eapaUlty, and alio to 'in - crease it.\ . Much depends on the way a cow has been kept.. Cows accustomed to a great variety of food are invariably ‘ , ood'eaters and almost always heavy • milkers. 'fltusi the best cows in. a. neighhorhood arc usually those of poor men whose one cow is made a pet - sof, and has all sorts of food. Such cows are usually a good bar gain at almost any price, though they . will rarely do_ as well when taken • from their own Old homes and..turn ' cd in with the less varied fare ac corded to larger' herds. Milkmen • have learned that it is important to give cows a variety of food. Hence their purchases of bran, meal, roots, awl cake. _lt may:not pay farm ' ems to take so much pains, but they, can promote the thrift of their her& •._ and their owl profits by • changing the animal's food as often as possible: W.

TWO HATO IC THE 11CHL4313 Of BILLDPORD COMITY- , MIL EDITOR :—lt was our privilege yes terday and today, July 2241 and .24,3 d, .to accompany Superintendent Ryan in his risitatiotu; at the ichools in our county. The townships visited, Orwell and rich, are probabliseeond to none in the county in interest in education. Owing to the fact that many of the summer schools bad dosed, we were obliged to drive about lifty-live miles to reach the seven Schools visited. Many of the school houses were new, and on the outside presented a neat. ap pearance. On the inside the esrnditure of a few dollars would have wonderfully fully improved them. In a large part of them the plaster was off in many places, the wood work was thinly painted with poor paint, and the walls smoked and black overhead. A coat of whitewashing above, a l4jtle repairing' of walls on the sides. and% few rolls of neat paper,cai : & fully spread with one or two coats of good paint would , render the interiors . of the buildings qiiite pleasant. The expense would probably be from five to ten dollars per house. Another improvement in two of the buildings would be to extend the lowja; tarts of the blackboards until they were within the reach of, the younger scholars. In one building we found the blinds faSyned by rails propped against them froina neighboring fence, the sas ' out and the building, so dilapidated th t at first we passed it as abandoned. The teachers in most cases were youtg and inexperienced. Nearly every one, however, seemed anxious to do well and receive the suggestions offered, and the criticisms•made in a spirit that argued' well (011ie future. Indeed, in the • of nearly every one of the younger teach ers the needful thing seemed to be that they should learn how to do. The Visits of the Superintendent cannot result oth erswise than in good. the first school visited, although the teacher was teach ing the last week of a term of three months, not a word had been written by • One- of the pupils. In one school six class es were found in Geography, in another small school five classes in written arith metic. In both of these a lack of proper classification wys seriously interfering with the efficiency of the schools. Anoth er great improvement in mbst of the schools would be to have the primary _ cashes read more often, and for a shorter. period. In a school of a dozen scholars twice a day is not enough practice for a ,class in the primer. Our teachers need to dear,' much in methods, and to be very 'thorough in first principles. Students arc out of their ph,ces in the middle of the Arithmetic Who can neither read nor write numbericcorrectly. Much that we found was quite gratify ing. , In the school taught by Mist Martha J. Brown, we were pleased to see outlibe mai l s fastened around the room and jute!. ligeutly used by the pupils. 'Many trot toes, the property of the teacher, gave a pleasant appearance to the otherwise bar- reu wars. In Miss Kate :Norton's school we were pleased tki find eight out. of the twelve pupils organized in a class in oral grammar. They,were learning the defini tions of the. parts of speech, with some of tbe•simPler modifications. This is a step in the right direction. If the teacher only accompanies this with an abundance of il lustrative exercises written by the stu dents theinsehies, and corrected by class and te.aelfer,' excellent results may be se cured. The Superintendent assured us this was the first class r found in Oral Grammar awing his visitations. The last school - visited , wax that of Miss Mitten in the Landon district.. The teaching in this school is shown by the thoroughness- of the stndents iti what we examined them, would have done credit tti any primary school in the county. Hero we found a class of ten studying in primary grammar who not only recited definitions correctly, but illustrated them readq on the board. by sentences which were written, spelledj and liunctuated correctly. In .elosing these harried•notes we would urge all parents add friends of education to jute heartily with the Superintendenti to hicrease the efficiency Of our district schobbi. Good, thorough f upervision will: show a good advance in the character of the school and teaelwrs before the close of the term of the present superintendency. It is showing itself already in the nuinber desiring to go when they may better qual-• ify themselves for their work. Let your Directors now encourage those teachers whokare preparing themselves thoroughly or, who are already prepared and etiperi enced, by increasing their pay,. and by making a difference between those who kap school, and those whom the directors know by experience and by their record can tearlt school. E. E. Qth2SLAN. Towanda, July 23, 1818. AN OPEN LETTER TO TEACHERS. 'Criticism will constantly be directed to- Wards those who direct others.• The con stant question will 1:43. asked, "Are they themselves what they wish others tor, be-. come?!' This judgment causes More teachers to fail than the examination bench. The motives that bring so many to the school-room are shill:ly temporary ; •they teach for convenience—it is the easi est occupation ; as if John or Peter wok •to "teach all nations because that was the most convenient and handy way to get a living " But whatever brings man or woman into' the school-room, he intuit not stay there-if he find his spirit is against the spirit of the place ;or rather if his spirit Is hot with the occupations those undertaken. But how, the teacher asks, shalkl bruin. myself to . love :this occupation Which has so many unpleaSant features about. It? It is to answer f.his we write. The-work of teaching is many-sided. It Is a good and noble and not unpleasant work. Some men and women are doing it as Angelo painted ; some ,are doing it hideously ; they go to jtsJ like galley slave, scourged to his dungeon." They bate it, and seize on any crease to leave it. Offer them a penny a day more and they quit it, with; out snapping a single tie; for there were .no tics binding,them to it. • • The teacher should valuebis Day hy day he should strive to look up the beneticicut effects of "education ; ho should read history and biography to see What education bas.done for the bunion race ; lie Orould see that vice and murder only show the need of: education. -• A certain Church member was convict, ed of forgery, . and . a cynic said, "Sec what religion has done ;" his friers! re plied "that is what a lack of religion has done - Do your.scholaratlght or swear? They are not educated. The !welter will bya careful consideration, see that hiss Profebfikatlita at the base at tiviliPit*, wale therefore intrinsleally valuable in ilie highest - degree.. The pupils will go forth as forces. in the world, to bless or curse it. Which, That depends very much on you.. These chil dren are worth saving ; in them is the hope . of the world. Value the chi/droa ; do not lOok at the coarse and, rude as of little accoynt. Go to the playground, et , into the street and watch the order of things; see who is the powerful and in fluential one there . ; "go for" that one when, he comes into your schciol-rosm. The teacher will learn in time that the school is simply for the children.; it is to Insure their progress and 'right develop ment. The work you do is as good as any, cinisithred simply as work. Let no one debule you by saying that this or that work has less care and perplexity. Your work,if you bring your heart to it, is worthy of your appreciation. Do not tin der-value your worlo.—.N. Y. School Jour nal. WHAT - IS IT—IR A WORD THAT A TEACHER NEtns To -Kigow ?—"l wish," said a lady friend and teacher to me to day, "you would tell me :chat you would do in Sehool—hom you would manace." "I Cannot tell you," I replied ; " I could not till the occasion arose, what, I should do." What ,a teacher needs to know, is' the laws by which the mind and tody are. governed. Ile needs to understand every Faculty, just as we understand different species of plants. Ile needs to know what each Faculty is. what its office and func tions are, and what it takes delight in do ing. lie needs then to know the laws which govern all : As, that like excites like; activity strengthens 'and inactivity weakens each Faculty ; that the Faculty which is the strongest; whether by nature or cultivation, governs the 'rest, awl thus determines the .character, etc.l etc: In :addition to this he needs to have practical Phrenology . enough at command, tO ena ble him to determine the exact balance of Faculties,_and thus to know the leading or controlling elements of each scholar, his capabilities, and his main character istics. Thus fitted, the Teacher has what lie needs, and is indispensable, to wit : Whatever . he does in fichool, to ono or to all, he knows_ why he does it. He is cer tain, what the result will be; just as cer tain as he would be of the act of holding his finger in the blaze of a candle. This \is what-the needs to know. Then the \question, iii every case, as to wheth4 he khan do this.or do that, Is to be decided by the end he wishes to gain. He says to himself; if I do this, such will be the re sult ; if that, so-anlo will result ; of 'these do I wish to \ piing about? The instant that is determined, he knows what to do : just as in chemistry, a third article is ptoduced by the combination of two` otbeis. This is precisely whit a teacher, in thetirst place, needs to knoir,, Vocal. Mestc.—This subject has, been discussed in educational meetings more or less for w few years, and not without good results. Many of the teachers have learti=, eel by these discussions that it 'is possible to introduce-vocal music in the common' school, andfhave gone home and tried the experiment, and have succeeded in crea ing an interest in it and report the suc cess, and of the beneficial effect on schol ars and school., Some of the difficulties in teaching music when the teacher can net sing—has been answered at the Asso ciations, and we will - not give them here. We to urge the teachers of the county to give it a trial during their next term-. J)o not denounce it and say . it can't be,done, tintil you have tried it. If you begin right, yoti will have no - trouble in getting your scholars interested in sing tug, and when 'you have done this the hardest of your work.is done. Iregiu by teaching your pupils to sing sOme easy. lit tie; song.. When there is any rkligioits prejudice, avoid any thing that would tend to' inder you in your singing. There is much moresinging in the ru ral schools that tecro has been, and we are anai6us to.sce it in every school in the county: I Miseollaneaus.
