The object of onr oommon (ohool sys
tem should be to furnish to our young
■ practical education. The great majority
of our ohildren have uo other education
than that given in our eoasmon schools,
'and it is, therefore, of the utmost impor
tance that the system should be divested
of .all superfluous features, making it
simple and thoroughly practical. Eduoa-
tion iu this oonntry is of such a charac
ter, and colored by such false social ideas,
that many of onr best men have been led
to doubt the practicability of school edu -
cation. Tbs young man is more apt to
graduate from oollege a diplomated fop
and classic loafer than a useful oitizen.
Our institutions of learning, iustead of
emptying their graduates into the fields
of mechanical pursuits, are continually
swelling the already over-crowded pro
fessions, the great ocean of useless hu
manity, and feeding the blaek sea of vioe.
This is not the fault of eduction, how
ever—it is the fault of society, which
attaches to eduction false notions,among
the worst of wbioh is that labor is degrad
ing to the educated. We osuuot educate
too much, if we will make it practicl. If
every farmer iu America wore a thorough
scientist the results of our farming would
be largely iucreased, aud the happiness of
that important class of our population
greatly enhanced. The time will be when
as miioli cultnre will be found iu the fur
row as in the library, when the fields and
woods will blaze with as muoh brillianoy
of mind as does the city. Qreat progress
he been made in this direction within
the last few years, and it must go on until
our schools are something besides hot
houses of impoteuoy and fashionable use
lessness, and our farms become the homes
of cultured intellectuality.
A change in our common school system
is the first thiug to be sought. We must
begin here to learn our boys and girls
that education is only an aid to useful
ness, a mens for the accomplishment of
the proper aims of life, and is not a sim
ple ornament. More attention must be
K id to the practicl pursuits of life 'end
is to the accomplishmonts. Instead of
leading the snsceptible mind entirely
away from the thought of industry, never
permit it to forget it. If the soienco of
agriculture, for instance, bad a place
among the studies of our
common schools, the boy would
be led to see beauties instead of
drudgery and uninviting gloom in life up
on tue farm, aud would be less inolined to
leave it, often for less honorable and even
less remunerative employment. The
Western llural believes that agriculture
is one of the noblest and safest, and can
be made amoug the most profitable pur
suits, in wbioh the youug men of Ameri
ca can engage, and is desirous that any
thing so potent in winning the hearts of
our young men to the farm or in weaning
them from it as are educational facilities,
should be managed in the interest of this
great and important industry.
Potatoes.
A correspondent of an Eastern journal
says:
The better class of our farmers will no
doubt oontinue to grow potatoes, though
probably not so extensively as heretofore,
and this crop will doubtless oontinue to
be profitable where the climate and soil
are naturally so favorable. But the grow
ers need to learn more of the scienoe of
fertilizing the land for this particulsr orop.
They need to study the teachings of agri
cultural ohemietry, as to what elements
are taken from the soil with each crop of
potatoes, are wanting in the soil, and
need to be restored by artificial means.
For instance, it iB known that about
one-half the inorganic elements of the
potato—as found in the ashes—consists
of potash and about one-quarter soda;
and it he been shown by Prof. Johnson
and others that every crop of potatoes,
my 160 bushels, takes from the soil about
fifty pounds of potash and twenty pounds
of phosphorio acid, with smaller amounts
of soda, magnesia, lirno, sulphuric aoid,
chlorine, etc. ileliance cannot be placed
on chemical analysis of the soils to show
just whiah of these elements may be
wanting, but a little study and experi
menting with different fertilizers by the
farmers would praotioally solve the prob
lem.
On most of our old sandy lands I am
oonvinoed that potash is the chief ingre
dient that is wanting. The past season I
manured part of my potato ground with
leaohed asbes pretty freely, adding some
that wee unleashed, and the potatoes on
the land thus treated were as plentiful in
yield as another part where stable manure
tn used, aud the quality of the tubers
(peachblows) was very much finer. It is
probable that the good results of the ashes
were iu past owing to the small phospho
rus and lime oontained therein beside the
potash. This experiment in this season,
when there is general complaint of the
poor quality of potatoes, leads me to be-
leiva that quality as well as quantity may
be greatly effected by the judieioua use of
fertilizers. „
In clayey soils, we are taught by the
chemists, there is not often lack of pot
ash, and heuoe, ashes are not of much
use. I am not sure that this applies to
olayey lauds that have been long crop
ped with potatoes. But snob lands are
not usually found suited for this crop.”
Speaking next of the quality of the po
tato, which is not necessarily proportion
ate to the quantity, and whioh Frof. John
son used to estimate aooording. to the rel
ative amonut of solid and watery matter
contained in the tuber—the quality being
enhanced by every increase of solidity—
Mr. B. goes on to quote:
It may be, therefore, that as by grow
ing iu unlike soils, or with unequal de
grees of rapidity, our potatoes may con
tain different proportions of water, so by
different kinds of fertilizers, whioh aot iu
the same way as natural differences of
soil and oanse the plants to develop with
greater or less rapidity, the same effects
may be produced. One kind of saline
substitute, such as nitrate of soda, by
hastening the growth, may give us a
orop of potatoes containing muoh water;
while other, suoh as sulphate of soda, by
retarding the growth, may give a crop
containing less water; and thus, though
there may be no difference iu the weight
of the two orops, they may be unlike iu
the relative proportions of dry food they
contain. If such be the oase, it is of
great practical importance to determine
the quantity of water whioh onr several
experimental potato crops oontain, since,
without this, we may draw very incorreot
oonolnsions as to the value of our experi
mental manures—plaoing the highest val
ue upon that whioh gives greatest weight
of raw material, and esteeming least, per
haps, that which produced the greatest
weight of dry food. Aud adds, in con
clusion : I would especially reoommend
Prof. Johnson’s last sentence above to
the attention of all who are experiment
ing in the production or culture of new
varieties of potatoes, as well as those who
are tasting different manures for this
crop.
Kkowlxdoe or ths Faum.—Many say
that knowledge is not necessary for farm
ers—that anybody can run a farm. And
is this really so ? Is no knowledge re
quired to nnderstaud the laws which gov
eru the planting and growing of crops,
the nature of the soil in wbioh they
should be grown ? Is no knowledge re
quired to understand the scienoe of
breeding, to their highest perfection, the
various kinds of live stock, and the care
and treatment whioh they should receive
during the period of growth? Do not
the laws of health and disease want
to be understood by the breeder of
stock ? Does not the soienoe of plantiug,
pruning and training of fruit trees want
to be mastered? More kuowledge is
needed by the fermer than by any other
professional man.—CoUman't llural

One Horse Farm.
The true path that leads to private and
publio welfare, and that will lead us out
of the slough of denpondeney into the de
lectable land of independence, is illustra
ted iu the following description of a “one
horse” farm and its operations last season
as furnished by a farmer in Bishopville,
8. 0., who is the happy owner of this
model farm. All the ploughing was done
by his buggy horse, the time so used av
eraging two days in the week. The re
sults are as follows:
Thirteen acres were planted, six in oorn
and peas and seven in cotton. All the
work of cultivation was done with day
labor, at fifty cents a day without meals,
except fur plowing a part of the time.
The oost of preparing and cultivating the
corn and peas was |$13.75. The cotton
seed and commercial manures oost
$100,60, and the oost of gathering was
$15; a total expense of $127.35. The
land produced 259 bushels of corn, 3,000
pounds of fodder aud 30 bushels of peas,
valued at $310. The net profits were
$182.95. The expense of making the
ootton and preparing the cotton for mar
ket, including $113 ■ for manures, was
$201.45, and tho prooeeds of the seven
bales produced amounted to $376.85.
The net profits on the cotton was $174.10,
whioh, added to the profits of the other
orops, gives a total net profit of $357.15.
The cotton oost aeven cents a pound to
produce it, and six bales sold for twelve
eents, and ouo halo seven and a half cents
net per pound.
This is the true rqad out of the wilder
ness of ruin in which the late war in
volved the Southern States.
Roes 14 Pay to Raise Rig Hogs.
In order to get hogs to weigh above
300 lbs., it is geuerally necessary to keep
them until near two years old, and have
to feed them two winters, while an ani
mal not so much over one year old, oan
be brought up to 275 lbs., or over, and
will have to be wintered only one winter;
iu itself a considerable item, the winter
feeding of switie being more expensive
than their summer pasturing.
Wo question if ouo hundred pounds of
pork additional, will pay for keeping an
animal requiring as much food as the
hog reqnires for one year.
We kuow that heavy pork does not sell
as readily in our market as hogs weigh
ing two hundred pounds or less; and the
lighter auimals sometimes oommsud one
dollar more per hundred weight, ileavy
pork is generally harder to cure, there be
ing more difficulty in getting the salt to
penetrato to tho center of pieoes, than in
hogs of smaller sizo. There is more
waste, too, in the larger animal, iu the
way of trimmings.
We will consider ourselves under obli
gations to any of your numerous corres
pondents, who will be so kind as to give
us some reliable data on this important
subject, and wo persume that many
others are as anxious to know more of
this matter of raising “big hogs.”—
Monroe Advertiser.
A touching incident is reported from
Chattanooga. An utter stranger oalled
on a respectable farmer last week, and
asked him if bis house had not been
robbed during the war. The farmer re
plied that it had. “I,” said the stranger,
“was one of the marauding party that did
it. I took a little silver locket.” “That
locket,” said the farmer, “had been worn
by my dear ohild.” “Here it is,” replied
the stranger, visibly afi'eoted, “I am rich;
let me make restitution. Here aro twenty
dollars for your little sou.” He gave the
farmer a $50 bill and received $30 in
ohauge. He then wrong the farmer's
hand warmly and left. The farmer bos
since dried his tears and loaded his shot
gun. The $50 bill was a bad one.
