For farmers' sons, even of the hard-working classes, still other opportunities are possible, which could not escape the notice of the prudent German. Various Winter Schools have accordingly been es tablished by the several agricultu ral societies, to be kept open from November to February inclusive. In 1872-'3 there were eleven of these schools, and others were pro jected. The organization varies according to local needs, and the means at three winters. Besides the common school branches (in eluding religion), instruction is given in the elements of natural science, field culture, the raising of animals, book-keeping and farm management ; also, where it is pos n: sible, in drawing, field-measure ments, drainage, soils, tools and fruit culture. At Wurzburg, where there is a force of eleven teachers, agricultural law, geography and history have been included. It is remarkable, to see the liberality of both the State and the agricul tural, societies in providing such schools, as contrasted with the apparent indifference of the great mass of laboring farmers. The fees for tuition are not high, and the necessary living expenses are made as low as possible, that none: may be excluded from want of means. ~Some idea of tht, appro priations of money required may be realized from the report of 1860-'9, that in the seven Winter Schools then established 53 teach ers instructed 157 pupils ! Each teacher, however, is generally em ployed but a:few hours every week to give instruction in own depart ment. Besides the teachers' sal aries, buildings, fuel and incidental expenses, Bavaria, liberally fur nishes these schools with wall charts, collections of minerals, soils, agricultural products, &c., models of machinery, of tools and of flow ers, chemical and physical appa ratus, and various other means of instruction. The next class to be con sidered are the "Ackerbaurichulenl," or Field-Culture Schools. In these, practical farm work is made one of * the means of instruction ; the course extends through two or three years. The theoretical instruction is somewhat similar to that of the -- Winter Schools, and is so far of an elementary character that boys * who have passed successfully through the "people's schools" are capable of understanding it. The -practical farm work and instruction tural conditions. The "Midd Agricultural School" at Lichten hof stands on a rather higher platform in the series than any of the preceding, for the course of study extends through three years, * beside a one-year preparatory course. Theoretical.studies can be pursued more thoroughly than in the "Field Culture Schools," but practical farm work, unde 'e di rection of teachers, also forms part of the instruction ; and twelve to twventy-five hours per week, ac cording to the season and the weather,, are assigned to this de * partment through the whole course.-Prof. 1R. B. Warder, in The Journal of the American A gri cultural -Association for October. A WORD FOR THE ORow.-Don't kill the crows. It is only within a few years that speakers at the va rious meetings had the courage to say a word for the crow, but now it is admitted that his character is not so uniformly black as his plumage. In Northern gardens, the white grub is, on the whole, the most in jurious insect, when we consider the great variety of plants it at tacks,' ranging from grass to nur sery, trees, and that its work, be ing beneath the surface, is not sus pected until the. injury is done. The crow has a keenness of sense that allows him to detect the un seen presence of the white-grub, and a fondness for a fat mnorsel that induces him to capture it. A few years ago, we had a chance to watch the operations of an as semnblage of crows on a grub infested lawn. Their skill in find ing and dislodging the grub should have been witnesqed by all op ponents of the caow.-American A GOOD PROVIDER.I We sometimes hear a husband spoken of in an admiring way ai being "a good provider." And pray why should he be called gene rous any more than the member of any other firm when he keeps the books, receipts the bills and divides the money? In case of the farming business, the share of the wife is sc direct and unmistakable that it can hardly be evaded. If anything is earned by the farm, she does hei distinct and important share of the earnings. But it is not necessary that she should do even that te snake her, by all the rules of justice, an equal partner, entitled to hex full share of the financial proceeds. Married people generally divide la bor equally ; the, woman bear chil dren ; the man provides for them. Her task on the average is as hard as his ; nay, a portion of it is so especially hard that it is distin guished from all others by the name of "labor." If it does not earn money it is because it is not to be measured in money while it ex ists-nor replaced by money if lost. If a business man loses his partner he can obtain another ; and a man, no doubt, may take a second wife, but he cannot procure for his children a second mother. Indeed, it is a palpable ins Alt to the whole relation of husband and wife when one compares it, even in a financial light, to that of business partne:s. Yet she enjoys none of the privileges of a member of the firm. The money made is not divided between the pair ; the fe male partner must ask for her pit tance. One of the very best wives and mothers I have ever known, whose husband was of a most gen erous disposition and denied hex nothing, once said to me that when. ever her daughters should be mar ried she should stipulate in theix behalf with. their husbands for a regular sum of money to be paid them at certain intervals for theii expenditures. "I suppose no man, she said, "can possibly understand how a sensitive woman shrinks froir asking for money. If I can pre vent it my daughters shall nevei have to ask for it. If they do thei duty as wives and mothers they have a right to their share of thE joint income within reasonable lim its; for certainly no money could buy the services they render." THE Kin FAmER.-A man weni to a doctor and told him: "Doctor there is something the matter with my brain. After an3 severe mental exertion I have head ache. What is the remedy foi it?" "The best remedy is to get your self elected to the L.egislatmie where you wi'l have no occasion tc think." The patient replied if it wasn'I for the sake of his children h< would make the exeperiment. He didn't want them to go througi life with a stigma attached to theil names. A Bostonian was knocked down in a friendly boxing bout, and hiE head struck the floor with a fata: result. A Texan's brain suffered such a concussion from a hard blo'u in a sparring exhibition that h( died next day. A Kansas fightex undertook on a wager, to prevent s traveling pugilist from knockina him out in four rounds ; and, thougi: soft gloves were used, he received s finishing stroke in the neck. HE apparently recovered in a few hours, but soon went into a decline. and was dead at the end of a month.--N. Y. Sun. A Chicago paper says that s printer in that city has been cured by prayer. It does not say whal the printer was cured of.
