Toroato Globe. Care of Brood Sows. Brood sows should always be car ed fOr . by one person only, so far ala it may be practicable. The danger is from over-feeding, more tnan all things 'else, - Whole grain for brood sows is one pf the most objectionable sorts of feed that a sow can be sup plied with because such food wil lie heavily in the stomach, producing fo-er,. • intratnation and a morbid de sire for some change of diet which of ten induces a sow to devour her young p . gs For several weeks prior to far rowing.a sow should be fed 'on cooked meal and milk, which should hi con tinued come time, after this Period. 1. potatoes and sOots aregiven they should be cookedi before' they arc fed. Ha sow has not the advantage of n-yard,.make it convenient to turn her out an hour or iwci every 'day to .grasi:. If a farmer always has a few lengths of portable' fence about his premises he' Rill find • it, handy on many occasions. He can fence in a few rods 'of gilass for pig:, calVes, or lambs as required. After ten or twelve days the .pigs can be let ,out with the sow. Fiequeut feedings - better for the sow. than one or twro large feeds per day, If she is weak ly, or seems to have too many pip • f,,r her milk, Make a mash of whey and bran, or skini-milk, meal • and bran, and let the pigs learn to eat as soon as they will come to the trough. A fter the sow has become strong and. her udder exhibits no signs of fever, it Will be safe to feed her, three times • a 11:iv all she will eat of cooked meal; milk and slops: During cold . weather, when sows cannot have ac cess to the ground nor to •grat's, it is an .eicellent practice to pass some hay and cornstalks through a fodder 'eutter for them. Such coarse and bulky feed will distend the stomach. and bowels and keep the systen in 'a Lealthy condition.—[Praclical FOrnr r t . . WINTER .M.kNAGINENT or riio.4, In addition to a warm s dry lied, which is of the Utmost importance, we pay N . e ry careful attention to their diet. We find it of great advantage to use. , at least, a ,part of the time, corn' fodder for bedding ; not only because it makes a bed that wears and - keep' clean longer than straw, but because - the hogs eat the blades greedily, and show ,that they need ) something besides 'tl s rich concen trated food which c rn constitutes. Just try throwing a bundle of bright corn-fodder to a half a ,dovn pigs Plat have been in a cl6se - pen for sotne`litne, - and- see bow they devour it, and you will at once be convinced that it is profitable food for them. Another important rule is never to feed more than the hogs Will eat up clean. If by an accident we giveltoo much, so that st the .nest feeding' time there is corn.in the pen, a little warm slop and no corn for that feed. It will do with old fattening hogs, that have deieloped an appe tite, such as a thrifty has,, to keep . corn by them all the time, but I doubt whether it is ever economical, 'and in the ease of young hogs I am sure that it is hurtful, andjenders them liable to disease. I would hiv it down as a rule never lobe deviat . ed from, that to keep young hogs thrifty they must.be so fed that they will always come with a good appe tite to their food. It your hogs ' .seem to tire of . corn, give them less . of it and more of something else—a bundle of sheaf oats or corn fodder, • a feed of cabbage or pumpkins, as bong as they are to be had ; or if roots of vegetables are not, to be had, some good warm slop.,—ELetter to Ohio EFFECT OF SALT ON Wiimr. 7 l—ln an interesting series of experiments recently made or the farm of the roy al agricultural society' of England, the manural value of salt is minds ' tAtably indicated. An acre of wheat dressed with three hundred pounda .of common salt yielded thirty-nine bushels of grain, with a proportion-, ate amount as straw, while an adjoin ing atre,_ left unmanured; produced only twenty nine bugliels per acre; n its the straw imperfectly developed. The entire cost of the crop is-not Stat- ed, but this experiment.shows that the. t • additional ten bushels from the salt 1 were produced at a cost' of thirty , cents each. In another eas a piece of ground intended' for wheat was plowed the proceeding fill, and again in May, when it was sowed with salt and afterward plowed before, seeding. On the Ist and 2nd of September wheat was sown at the rate of two bushels to the acre. The crop when harvested, yielded, according to the estimrte of the owner, Mr. John Parke, pot less than forty bushels of grain to the acre, with a luxurient ga►ft cot Igfaw• theft and thst # ional epartment E.

We invite attention to the following ex cellent wordi of a distinguished educator cos priinaii reading :- • "Dr. Brooks lectured on the tree meth od of ti.aehing Beading, which the believ ed to consist in a combination of Word , and Phonic methpds. De would begiP' with objects andpictures, and of courie the next step wouild be to give names or , words. Familiarize the child with the written forms of simple words, as well as the spoken. After thus giving a consid erable number of words, you take up the phonic method, and teach the elementary sounds, about 40 in number. The twen. ty-six letters, with ionic system of nota tion and a Yew additional characters, will cover all these. If you have a system in your book, use it ; 1 ; if, not, make one for yourselves, or use the diacritical marks, This experiment has been tried in Cleve land, and their testimony is that pupils learn to read two or three times as fa :t as by the old plan. , The silent letters are in some books put in italics, but the newer ones use a lighter-faced type, which you can use upon the blackboard. The child may thus be taught to pronounce for him self without ever knowing the names of the letters. The elements of spoken words are the sounds ; of the written words, the letters ; and, as the .natural order is to give the spoken word first, so he would teach thelsounds first. Separate the word into its sounds, and drill on them, then write the word, and show how the sounds are represented by characters. When you reach oral spelling, which will not be for some time, you will of course have to give the names of letters ; he would , be satis fied if -they knew these names when .they were through the First Reader. THE Directors of Sheshequin township have blackboards around two of the school rooms, and have arrangO to place them around all schools of th&district. As 'may be seen iu last educatioltal the directors and teachers of this township are holding semi-monthy . iestitutes, which should be done in the other districts of the county as they aro a power of good. Burlington and - Granirille townships will soon have blackboards around their school rooms, to the great advantage of the pupils. Granville Summit can boast of one of the best ungraded f thool build ings in the county. , . The rotfin.4 is supplied with the best patent seats and des . . The directors of this township seem de" ermin ed to have nothing- undone that may ad vance the interests of the schools. The Superintendent was favored with the com pany of some of them in each school of the township. , ,- Three school houses in a certain township ` were observed to be without any privy. We omit to niention the locality, for the finger of public scorn would surely and justly be pointed. tor rect the defect fur decency sake or close the schools.

These teachers in most cases are doing such satisfactory work that for the pres- ent we omit special mention of names ' One had failed' to use the blackboard or have it used, and we hope she will never apply for a ceitificateln this county again as her services may be better appreciated elsewhere. A few omit to have map draw— ing on slaters'while learning lessons, . and on; the blackboard .while reciting, al thpizgli the text books contain an excel. lent system. We can but think such teachers too lacy to learn it: • Quite a uumber fail to give instruction in penmanship on the blackboard, though pupils in many cases have books contain ing a thorough analysis of each letter. A live teacher would study and teach the principles of writing. ' Every pupil from oldest to.youngeat should write daily. If unprovided with pen, ink, or paper occa sionally, still write on slate or board. The Superintendent asked teachers to send him a programme of the school, to which request quite a large number have kindly responded. When it is the Super iintendent's turn , as editor again, a list of those who have forwarded programmes : ; will be given. OLD AND YOUNG TEACDEDI3.--.4C11001 officers are frequently embarrassed re specting appointmenti or reappointments of persons grown old, or who have broken down in health in the service of the pub lic schools. To deny persons of either class a position as teacher, when they ask it seem little less-than cruelty. Gratitude for past services, or pity fur present mis fortune appeals strongly to the appointing power. On the other hand the boys and girls come trooping forward, bright with hope, andl full of life and health, all eager to find out something new, and ready to be impressed with a liking for school and love of learning, or dislike for both. Per sons enfeebled by age or disease, cannot in the nature of things be very attractive "pci pupils. They demand teachers as bright, enjoyable and vigorous as thein selves. Besides schools are established for the benefit of:pupils, not te_Nhers. In fact, schools have no excuse to ezistat except to educate boys and girls. It is ii violent perversion on their purpose to turn them, under whatever pretext;' , into infirmaries for, he feeble, or homes for the aged; or eleemosynary institutions for the needy, or asylums for persons of slen der abilities unable to trait a living in oth-, ci occukatigna. -- B.
