erect an interesting address on dairy
farming in , the American Institute
Building last Friday. Be began
With the proposition that all agrienl
tiiral industries can be most ..profit
ably carried on when the land is
liir!cly slibditided • into. seperate
ownerships, and that the aggreption
of great amounts of land is unprofit
ableto the hold:ers and the country:.
Ile said :• , 1
Let us direct our attention to the'
land where all eyes are now turned.
Let us -e :amine the agriculture of
France in' ISAIB, before the begining
of berivar with Germany; which strip
ped her of ViSti square miles of her
.territory leaving her only 201,900
with a loss in population of 2,030,000,.
and compare its productions with
oar own,
and cotnpare the habits of
its people. as farmers. with ours, and
sec...if we-6n, what is it that tends
to she'difference in their favor.
The oastful western - man
. will be
not a i the astonished to learn that
(-
Franc , with - not so much area as.the
state izi Texas, raises more wheat in
quanti y. than the United States all
told : - he area ; of ( France being only
207.45 i square miles, 0r.132,000, , 1(.0
acres; while Texas contains 23;',231,
f_finare- miles 'or 154,0i.0,00ii I acres.
111.1' yet the product 'of Wheat in
France in the year 181 4 ,8 was 3-7)0,000,-
060 bushels: the total product of wheat
in the United States for the same
year was • only about 240,000 J 00

an example of what may be the
In,:dits of the smaller industries of
fanning, which, by the larmerS Of the
-United States, arc reckoned almost'
valueless, it is-an astonishing fact
that in the year 1366 France expcit
ed as much in value of eggs to Eng:
land alone as we exported of bacon
and hams, one of our chief expertsof
provisions in 186 S i'dthat i to say, in '
nun] numbers $5,b,00,0'0, while we
exported, eggs to the paltry nrmber
of four hundredand twelve dozens.
No man who has,„ not seen•these fig,
ures, who has pot exmaiked the ag
rieultural productions of Fiance, can
iH that the ::1''3,,!00,0o0 of her in:
habitauts, on-a territory so small as
to give only three and a half acres to
..tn inhabitant, could vie, in agricul
tio'fil prodnetions, save cotton and
tobacco, with a nation :like ours,,'of
about the, same number of. inhab
itants, whose territory
,gives more
than-fifty acres to each inhabitant, or
nearly seventeen times as -much' land
for , cultsvation. - .
Another and more certain test of'',
the distribution of wealth, in France
is seen iii this popnlation being
divided into 9,000.000 families, allow
ing four to the, family, which is near
ly the ratio, 1,1•00,000 of thong fam
ilies, or - 4,1;00,000 of people, are in
. easy: cireumstancesthat is, able to
live without work or business. :Of
• the remaining 8.0.0,01;0, which-may
be sail to be composed of the indus
trial and working classes, 3,000,c00
only alit! inhabitants Of the towns.
'4:hat is, of the whole poptdation,two
titths of • the people in France live in
-the country. This giV,es a very sur
prising result as compared with Eng.
whereCfoitv-fifths of the whole
people live Prltowns and one-fifth only
in the country. «e have yet'no data
with which I am acquainted to make
a like comparison With this country.
There arc nearly 6,000,00 -houses in
France, the greatest part of them cot
, taus with , small plots of land. Near
ly the whole of this number are small
freeholds belonging ,to their oceu-
pants.
. After bearing these statistics . *
question arises, pow are these 'is-pry
I 'reat results possible? What is-the
(secret? It is the thorotigh• eultiva
, lion of the soil:. Of her= - 132,1 00,000

Tl,us Will appear that two-thirds of
tile area of France is under actual
cultivation every year. But tile
ques
tion stilt recurs; How Can this be
possible? The answer It - becomes
possible because of the mintite sub

A VISIT TO THE ELKIIIA SCHOOLS. '
Elmira is noted for her progess tf ma
terial wealth. and thinking that her edu
cational advancement should keep step
with her progress in wealth and influence.
we decided to spend \ a day in visiting her
schools. -
Miss Clara Lewis, teacher of the "C"
Priiriary Grade in . the Towanda Graded
School, accompanied us, and \ our princi.
pal Object was to observe the methods and
means used in the primary grades,of the
school of that that city.
In order that we might sec the be \ st
methods and results in the Primary,
Grades, we made tpplication to City Sn-'
mintendent`3lerrill who' "kindly volun
teered to give us all the information we
desired, and directed niswhere in,his opin
ion we could 'find_ the best methods f
primary schools.
There are five large School buildings in
the city, each -having Primary, Interme
diate, and Senior Grades. There is a
Principal for each of these schools, who
lia.s - the supervision of the whole building.
The City. Superintendent has the super
vision °vet all the schools of the city.
The first school we visited was the Pn
•mary Grade of School No. 2. Taught by
Miss Ida TAW". a graduate of a normal
school. Fruit visiting other primary
giiiides afterwards ,we found that Miss
T,aber was the most successful primary
teacher. The "word method" of teach-I
lug is used in these schools, but Miss Ta-i
ber informed us that she could accomplish
abe best results by using the Phoni' with
the word method ; she teaches the gouniti
before •she teaches the 'mines of the • let
ters, In spelling the word is pronounced,
first spelled by sound, then by letter., .
The!Grube's method of teaching tjiinr
hers is used. This niethOd of teaching
arithmetic unites the four iundamental
rules teaches addition, subtraction,--mul
tiplicarion and division at the•same time.
I his method is approved by many able
teachers, but the priniary., teachers tcom
plain 'that it is very difficult to teach,: We
do not approve of the system, for the rea
son that pupils should be taught One . thing
at a time. fhe other schools visited were
using the same method in the -primary
grades.
We also spent sometime in the High
Grade of School No. 5; F. 31. Beardsley,
Principal. For system, order and discip
lihe, this school can ha've' no superior.
The Ftudy room is large enough to seat
from 300 to 400 pupils. During school
hoUrs not a loud•word is syokeu. The
teachers Send the pupils •to the recitation
rooms by means of signals, and the pupils
make known their wants b 3 certain sign's,
And in this way obviate any loud speaking
or noise. • We think this school Is a model.
We were surprised at the lack of orna
ments or decorations in all the rooms.
Wesawno plantior flowers, scarcely a
picture on the *all.
All the rooms we were in could be made
n.uch more pleasant by some plants and
flowers about the windows, and pictures
on thewallti.
The teachers were all .pleasant and
courtPous,. and their conduct made us feel
at home—and regret we could not profit
by a longer stay in the schools of Elmira.
;For the Educational Departiuet-7
. Smithfield has the happy fortune or pos
s'essin,g at present one of the best conduct
ed Graded Schools in Bradford County.
For several years yore the erection of
the presentfschool building, the standard
of education had lapsed, from former
times, ;when Rev. C. C. Corss, Miss Clari
sa Stockwell, and other teachers had pro
innted the scholarship of the township.
\o Graded S.Chool was then thought of,
but large normal and academic classes
were formed during one or two terms of
the year, and as a result,. Smithfield fur. ;
niched hundreds of teachdrs to the State
of Pennsylvania, and not teachers only,
but clergymen, lawyers, duct irs and edi
tors. Many good scholak ever titled
with a Rev., or M.. D., haye ne forth to
adorn househblds, schoop ad churches
with a culture which Smithfield eduCators
famished when well-edowed academies
were a prize beyond our grasp, and grad
ed and'public,:schools were unknown.
Seven yi arc ago the present •school
building v. - as erected. From that time
cause of 'educat:on has progressed. Good
teacher* well-educated and skillful,
among whom we recall Mr. Ballentine.
Miss Plowman and Miss Woodw:orth
have. awakened a love of study. Bnt tGe
best teachers .have Come short of their
ideal, because their terms of 'office were
too ihort for their salutary discipline to
reach the highest results. With many
short-comings in our schools, we note
from year to.year a decided improvement
in the scholarship of our young people.
and this year bids fair t..) be the most suc
cessTul one the school has experienced.
Under the leadership of Prof. I. S.
Crawford with such competent assistants
'assistants as Miss Dayton, :Hiss W"it
:111011/33 Newell, the school is in a fair
way of becoming in fact, as well as in
name, a graded school. All are teachers
of several years experience. Prof. Craw
ford and Mrs.'Dayton hive been honored
formally with positions in the Towitida
Graded School, Ddring the fall term just'
closed 175 pupils have thronged the, four , l
departments. Latin, Natural Philosophy,
and Geometery were among the higher
studies tatitht. • A large normal class was
conducted, nineteen of whom had already'
beed engaged in teaching, but were zeal
ous to continue their education. Thirteen
of this class are intending to teach during
the coming winter.
, We note a few of the methods used_ in
this school worthy of eonrimendation :
1. A system Of grading the pupils ac
cording to scholarship--a difficult work
never thoroughly attempted until the
present year, and not yet .completed but
promising beneficial results.
2. Careful records are kept and thor
ough examinations are conducted. This
is a praise irorthy undertaking, not. en
tirely new in the school, calling for severe
cooseientious labor on the part of the
teachers, and in d as a healthy stim
ulus to,the pupi . '
3. The in uction of Speneerian
Writing Charts, and additional black.
boards. The 'Principal wishes to secure
air pump and other apparatus for inns
trating Natiotkal Philosophy, in which
laudable * undertaking we hope he: will
have the assistance of the School •itoarti
generally.; • ff. N.
Tau School Directors of the Overton
Independent school district have com
pleted the new school building. .The
tmilding is a large two.atory (tame .with
two rooms, each large enough to seat BP
ty pupils. The school began on Monday,

LEE GRIFFIN, Sec'y.
THE directors from a few townships
have been troubled to find the teachers
who had no school engaged, and we
would suggest that those who have no
schools, and desire to teach to send their
names to the Superintendent, who can in
form the directors.
