The second day of the county normal
school opened ycsteiday morning with an en
rollment of neaily tin oo hundred , moro than
double the attendinci ) of any pre
vious Institute over held in the county ,
There are ! kij teachers in the county hohllng
certificates to teach , and It is rogaided us ex
tremely rcnmrlwblo ( hut so nearly the total
number should bo present as early as the
second duy of the normal. It is taken as aa
evidence of the thorough work of Suncrlu-
tondont Cooper nnd ono of the peed results
at his determination to raise the standard of
instructor * in the public schools of the
county. It must also be taken as indicating
the hearty desire of the teachers to cooper-
nta with him In his laudable world
The course of instruction this season will
bo much more thorough and complete than It
has been possible to irnko it In the pnst.
The day was taken up with the
regular routine work , nnd every one ot the
five Instructors were ns busy as beavers. In
fact there Is no clinneo for nny Idleness or
room for nny Idlers. The teachers who cnmo
hero with the expectation of having a languid
Micntlon nro nwnkeulng to the fact that they
have lidd out for them three ) weeks ot tlio
hardest work of the year.
The normal will last tinea weeks , five days
In the wei'k nnd six hours each day for reel-
titiona , and about all the remainder of the
tlmo for study.

Dr. Jnbe/i Fisher , in Mussnehubotts

They wore lit for market September
liOth , the berries being then from ! ! 0 per

ers. October Ibt they btill were sweeter
than tlioso not treated , which latter
weio then ilpe , but the llrst had a bomo-
what insipid taste without the refresh
ing bparklo of the otheiH. .
The lesults , to far as they are npprcr- ,
ont from this trial , show a gain of teav
dajs in litiiuf-s for marKet , with largely
inureiibcd fcl/.o of borilerf. "The draw
backs are , in a hoason ns wet as thu post ,
a loss of from 120 pur eent to II ) per cent
of the borrles by fiaeklng open and the
production of hurries too toft to bear

would bo Icbbonc'd in a drier season ,
though not ovcicomo in my experience ,
and there would bo a dcc'cled ' diminution

A writer in the Canadian Horticultur
ist Hays lie reads in the paper that a
great deal Is said about the man who
grows from 5,000 to 10,000 quails of
btuuvborries (150 ( to ! iOO bushels ) to the
acre , and t-olls them from 15 to 110 cents
a quart ; while nothing in said about the
mnn who gets from 1,000 to 2,000 quarts
per ucio ( DO to 00 bushels ) anil sells them
at 5 cents. It Is well to give the product
obtained by both men , In doing which it
is especially requisite to give an account
of the mode of cultivation adopted by
each. '
While tlio above is very true , It is also
true that the man who us-03 his best en
deavors and who resorts to the best
methods in his work will moio nearly
approach the largo yield. The history
of thooo who fall is never pleasing
though their lessons may save the realcr
from faoiuo ol their mistakes. T'io ' man
who buys the plants that will soonest
cover tlio ground and choke out the
weeds , nnil who thinks tlint nntitro
knows more about how frulla ought to
grow than ho does , Is tlio ono wo expect
to fall and we are seldom disappointed.

it grows right up again , nnd becomes

found that the hens will not touch white
or red clover If Ihoy can got alfalfa.
They eagerly run for It , and clean up n
mess of It nt oiic-e. Wo bullovo it to bo
the best grucn food for poultry known ,
and suggest tlint our readers try it no.\t

AVe nro ill receipt of a letter fiinn a
friend at Omaha , Neb. , in which lie
makes some pertinent MiTgeMions , says
the Kansas farmer. Wo have often
asKcd the amo question * , hut luuu not
received answers. Ho writes :
"If the western i.iilroids can , as they
do , transport for the Ml-i-ourl rnor pack'-
crs , packing hoiibo pioduct ( and along
with it tons of ice free of charge ) nt 1U
cents per hundred wclglit , why should
the fioight.ige of coin bo kept at 0
cents ? Packing house product is worth
$5 per hundred pound * ' , whilst corn is
worth less than .30 cunts pur hundred.
Why should tlioro bo a greater freight
age on a commodity of ki : i value th'iii
ono of greater \ nine ? When the wobt-
ci-ii ralltonds were tisKed last winter to
make Ihusnno rate on hard and soft
coal , tlio olliclals lopllcd that such a 10-
qucst was unicasonabli' , for the lea&on
that haul coal bjing a commodity of
greater value , it should b\ir u greater
frelghlagc. If western railroads can , as
they do , transport packing house pio-
duct , worth ten times as much us corn ,
for the packora at 1- cents , why should
they not bo compelled fo carry for the
fanner his corn for 12 cunts ? If a * rate
of 1- cents on a commodity worth $3 per
hundred pounds Is roimincT.itivo to railroad
roadwhj tax a commodity worth only

Speaking of number of pigs in a litter ho
sn.\s : "Somo people- - bay upuio broil
sow only lias four or live pigs , hut it is
different with mine. This year they
have hlg , btrong litteis. I beliuro the
scciot is in the inunagoincnt of the
breeding and feeding of your brood sows.
An exclusive corn diet for brood bows is
injurious , as it contains too much fatten
ing substance and not enough muscle
and bone formirtg material. One-half or
batter two-thirds of their food wbilo
with pig bhould consist of oats or bran
makes as good feud for sow B aa any I
o\er used.
"A brood sow should bo ono year old
before she 1ms her pigs. I would rather
have her eighteen months old before
furrow Ing her pigs , as the will have her
giowth and will laisea belter litter of
pigs. I believe O'io litter a year Is all a
sow oticrlit to laise. The lirst must come
too early and the second too lute , to bay
nothing of the increased drain on the
constitution of tlio sow. After raising
a litter in the spring a bow needs the
bilancoof the year to recruit her en
ergies preparatory to raising another
litter.
"It should ho borne in mind that there
is no kind of farm stock that can bo PO
rapidly Improved by judicious selection
and messing as swine ; also that there is
nothing that will dogcneiato i > o inpidly
under neglect. Kvon the best breeds wo
have will degenerate into worthless
scrubs in n few years If care is not oSor-
eibcd in the selection of block and the
infusion of now blood oaoliyonr. Breed
ing in-and-in tells with fearful effect
upon a herd , and the InoK of rare in the
way of food mid shelter will help tlioir
downward courio.
