Milton iim a Mchoolmnster. John Milton was born Yn Lon don iu 1008, just three centuries alio, his birthday being Decern* bei 9. One interesting and use. ful recognition of the ter cen to nary, which will bo valued cs pecially by teachers, is the pub Jicalion of Milton's famous little tractate on education ? a most re markuble treatise for its time. One is aroused 111 reading if., ro nitmbering the pedantry and Severity which reigned supreme #11 education in the seventeenth century, to see how Milton rose above it all and anticipated the ?reat lines of modern educational jnethods The truest represenia live of oulture the England of his period, Milton also, as most ? people forget, had practical ex , ? perience as an educator, having 111 his early llfo established a fittlo school for his nephews and their friends, twenty or thirty youths having at 0110 llmo or i>?her been his pupils. Hist rea lise on eduoal ion is an outgrowth, therefore, of experience, and It fiolds a deservedly honored plaoo in tho history of poda* gogy. Phillips U rooks once gave an address before tho Mas. 0'tchusot 1 s Teat hors' Association on "Milton 11s an Educator," which wns printed exclusively ?*?! ',0 Journal of Education. '?Milton's ideas about odnca. Hon," snhl Phillips Brooks, "are really reducible to tliroo great Ideas, miturnlnosa, practicalness, nobleness. Those art the three llrst necessities of education, which ho is alwnyj* trying to a p. ply ; and what has modern edu cation done more than this?'* The publication of the prognant pamphlet in ohosp form wiil be li roal boon to many. It is num ber 188 of tho "Old South L,o,if. lots.M Address Directors of the P. .8o"V.'

We pre far- young lions to sdults as t&ey will lay more eggs, and if JLhey ore a heavy weight variety, .when -lucubating will tfot breaic so tunny Cggs or mash so iuany of the young chicks as the old hens would do. It will uot be long before the young "Varies'* uitiUe their a|?|>eartlnce, aud our. method of rearing them might probably 4uteiest some of your readers.*' We "have our tur keys to lay and set in large roomy coops, 2} ft. long by 2 ft. wide, 2 ft. high iu front with u slope of G inches to the rear. Wlieu the turkeys get through with them we turn them over to our young chickens. Wo keep our turkey liens iu theorchaid until their broods are a few weeks ! old, when they are per mitted the range of the farm The lieus are kept from fly:ug over the Tolice by a light board or shingle 10 niches loug by 5 indies "wide, secured on Mie'n backs by soft 11 at strings run through holes iu the board and lied under their wings. Dy this method they cau .be us readily con lined its sheep, or oilier suiall stock, and it does uot injure iheui in the least. The young should bo tir&t fed eggs, bro^d, curd or light bread crumbled iu t snallow pan of milk. After they are a week or so old, crushed corn boiled the same as lioini un makes a tine fted for them, By the time they are Uvo or six weeks old, grasshoppers and other insects are plentiful, 'and they will thrive upon these, but should be givon one- feed in I he evening lo teach them to come home lo roost. This count y, Bourbon, cluims to be the chain pion turkey producing couuty of tlie World; ^over $100,000 worth of turkeys Uro annually exported to the Eastern markets and to be used for breeders. Quite ? number of . vurielies are reared here, and' all attain the very highest perfection. The liable Bronze is the most extensively bied, and is the king of nil tur keys. us it reaches the largest size. 40 pounds toms are to bi< met wiih on every side, while i?i a 3 year old form'' they some times reach the mammoth weight of 50 pounds. The Narragansetts ranks next iu size, and is quilo a favorite with those who have near neigh bors, as it its a very gentle tur key. Tlicy have a dark metallic pi uma go with salmon colored legs. They are sometimes called Silver Gray. The ''Bourbon Buttermilk" is a new variety and is rapidly coming to the front as one of our best marked turkeys. This is a beautiful turkey, being in color, deep golden, with pure white wings. This variety is uot yet rccognized in the Ameri can Standard of Excellence, but. should be, ns it is n better tur key th in most of tho standard ones and breeds true to color. The White Holland till key is bred iu considerable numbers, and when prepared for the tuble is considered the finest flavored turkey wo- have, but uro less hardy than other breeds. Thoy are puro white in color. The Buff or Yellow Turkeys have their admirers, but are not very extensively bred. Tho Ken tucky Crested Turkey is another now variety ?n I is quite a hand some bird. -They have a crest similar to the Peafowl, The Slate is a favorite with some and is not wanting for names, as it is also known as the Blue, Maltese', or Lavender, The domesticated Wild Turkey is also roared, .and is the hardiest turkey we have. One of its peculiarities is, thoy have no wattles like other varie ties. All of the prominent tur key breeders of the U. S. and Canada procure their fresh blood here, in central Kentucky, as thoy attain a greater size hero than anywhere else in the world.

Western Pennsylvania is u mused over a campaign expense account ti led by Till lveiss, of Sharon, Pa., the defeated democratic candidate for congress in the 20th Penn sylvania district. The statement roads: "I accepted the nomination on tho following platform ? that I would send to each constituent in the district a package of seeds, that I would draw my salary promptly, and all over my board I would bring homo and spend with my constituents. In my campaign expenses I used it where I thought it would do the most good.
