From the number and character of commencement" exercises bv the various colleges and educational insti tutions of the land, it would seem that amid the constant and absorbing ex citements of political and financial circles the calm, intellectual life of the school-room and the collegehas moved on undisturbed. Each year witnesses its quota of work done "in the way of educational training and discipline, and each year a certain number of gradu ates are sent out into the world duly stamped and sealed with the official in signia of collegiate authority. To those who view these educational processes only at a distance, the work performed may seem like mere artificialroutine or a humdrum exercise that possesses little practical value, but if these skeptics would examine the intellectual life of thejjupils at the beginning of an educa tional course, and then again at its close, they would di-eoerthat, in spite of all natural obstacles or inherent deficiencies of method, there ha9 been good, substantial progress made in intellectual growth and cult ure. It should alwajs be remembered, in connection with educational work, that the process of mind-building does not differ materially from other kinds of building. There must be, first, the slow, patient laying of the foundations under-ground, and then the erection of the visible structure stone by stone, a little more to-morrow, and so on from day to day, until finally the edifice lakes on form, shape, symmetry, beauty, durability, value and perma nence. The gathering and cementing into coherence and utility the materi als of knowledge and mind-culture ia really the work of a life time, and must be carried ou by slow, patient observa tion and study, year alter year. The gain at times "will be hardly percept ible, but the total and final results will show that the tides of life, as they have ebbed and flowed, left constantly be hind them little deposits of golden ex perience and philosophic truth, until these accumulated intellectual acquisi tions become at last real and solid edu cation und erudition. As in the natural evolution of life thought must precede intelligent action, so the possession of mental power and ability must go before any great success or achievement in the worm's practical affairs. It does not matter so much as some think how this mental power is gained, although the experience of the ages declares that the drill of the school room is the best method for ordinary or average minds; but it must be gained somehow. Brain-power and brain-culture is the secret of organizing and ex ecutive efficiency; it masters details. graps and comprehends fundamental principles.tightens or loosens the money strings of the world, and keeps in mo tion the myriad wheels of industry and commercial enterprise. To the act ive, stirring, business man, engrossed with mercantile or mechanical activi ties, it may appear that there is no other life but that of practical motion in the pursuit of some material aim and end, nut such a conclusion would be grossly erroneous. There is a life of thought entirely apart from practical action of any kind, and this life, passed usually in silence and seclusion, generally ante dates all the showy and brilliant results of subsequent history or personal achievement. To the philosophic ken this tangled web of human event; re solves it-elf into something like line of regularity, and amid seeming chaos the potency of laws and underlying forces is observed working out certain pro destined and inevitable results. Thus human life and human activities be come orderly and significant, and wc gain an insight into the march of prog ress which becomes by expansion and classification the scholar's philosophy of history. r About the only danger to true edu cational work in schools and colleges i the tendency to grow stereotyped and fossilized in the course of instruction given from year to year, as though there could be no change for the better. But the evil is being rapidly neutralized by conforming the curriculum to the de mands of modern life, and by placing men in control of these institutions who keep themselves s uarcly abreast of the onward march of ideas and events. It is only in this way that the schools can maintain or increase their efficiency and power. But by i-o doing, their yearlv work and exhibitions ot progress will not only continue to delight their sup porters and patrons, but be a source of equal satisfaction to the great army of outside friends and well-wishers who thoroughly believe in the value of gen uine education and who are glad to note every movement looking toward an in crease of effectiveness in educational work- Chicago JournaL Where the Burden Falls.

Chictjo Jcvrnul. Industries of Cities. The regret is often reported it. rural circles, says the last monthlv report of the Department of Agriculture, that hoys will leave the farm fo city life. It has been shown heretofore that the pioportion of farmers is slowly decreas ing, and that this is for the best good of agriculture. It has, at the same time, been shown that the supply of farm products is increasing by use ol labor-saving implements and (it is hoped) by better cultivation. Then there is no need of regret that all sons of farmers should not elect to be farm ers themselves. Some lwe inventive genius and a taste for mechanical pur suits; some manifest a penchant for trade, and others a preference for pro fessions. A distribution according to natural bent and innate aptitudes will lead to hotter results, and leave fewer poor farmers to occupy a positiou for which thoy have neither taste nor qualifications. An examination of tho business of cities shows that they arc occupied for other purposes than specu lation and petty swindling, however se veiely they may be cursed by the pres ence of those who prey upon honest in dustry. In fifty cities of largest popu lation there were nearly 8,000.000 peo ple in 1880. Of these a.000,000 or more were workers," in addition to tho wives and Jolder daughters who were housekeepers, and the children, the aged, and infirm. It nun be supposed that most of these workers were in commerce or transportation in these fifty great "marts of trade." By no means lor tbe larger proportion are artisans ami operatives connected with the great manufacturing class. Xcw York itself has 42 per cent directly en gaged as artificers, and but 27 per cent, in trade and transportation together, and the annual value of the products is the princely sum of $472,1)20". -137. In stead of handling a few hundred mill ions in foreign goods, they make an equal value of domestic goods, a large proportion of which is labor. So we find in these lift' 1 ities an average of 43 per cent, in manufactures, 1 per cent. m agriculture, and 24 p -r cent, in trade and transportation. As the remainder are in domestic service, distributed among these classes but not enumerated with them, and professional people de nendent upon all these classes, it ap pears that fully six-tenths of the popu lation of these cities are supported by manufactur.ag productioff, i. e.. live millions of a population of less than eight derive their incomes from the pro ductive industries. Thus the great cities of the country are not so much 'marts of trade" "as "centers of in dustry." Chicago Times. Specialty Farming'. It may be well to inquire into the general result of the practice of a cer tain specialty in farming, and see if it is always the best for tho greatest num ber of farmer. There are those farm ers who rsk all in wheat Wheat, well put in, is a reasonably sure crop, not does the price fluctuate jn value like some of the crops. The man who raises onions sells them one year at $1.50 and the next year at twentv-tive cent's: so with potatoes.

Wool is more important in this conn try than mutton, and with the claim that the wool interests arc not fostered by the Government, the breeders of sheep, instead of using their animals for all the purposes to which thev are adapted, confine themselves to a single production only, and complain that sheep are not profitable except under circumstances that permit only of unlimited range over free pastures". But wool, while seemingly more important than mutton, is really not as valuable if we take into consideration the facts . pertaining to the breeding of sheep for ! wool and sheep for mutton. Our coun-1 try is so large, and some sections distant from market, that breeders tin it easier to clip aud transport wool than possible to find a dozen first-class sheep in one hundred that arrive in market mat inav ue ciasscu as excellent.

On some railroads sheep are transported to market at so much each, and the large sheep, are. therefore, the cheapest, as they sell by the pound when thev arrive at their destination. -and. although wool is easily baled and shipped, there is still considerable labor in shearing and. preparing the wool for shipment. There is a portion of profit also from the best mutton breeds in the shape of wool, even though it may be inferior, but it is enough to pay the expense. The profit from sheep should be made as large as possible, anil the addition ,of a few more pounds of wool to the clip will not compensate for lack of si.e aud quality in the carcass. In England they find the prolit in mutton is so great as to make sheep a necessary adjunct to the farm, which would not be the case if they bred for wool. With the in crease of population in this country conies a greater demand for mutton, for we have but little of it, and that demand is sure to increase. As it in creases the field for breeding hheep is also widened, and if we aro to com pete with Australia and demand a tariff to protect us, we will at least be safe and soeure against foreign competition in the mutton supply. Of course we find mutton in our market--, but such meat could not easily bo sold in Eu gland. The usual llocks that come to our markets are very inferior. The peo ple are anxious for mutton good mut ton and it will be profitable to the one who sends it to market. Farm and Fireside. ScourinfT Wool In the West, Wool-growers in Kansas. Colorado, and New Mexico have learned that pay ing two or three cents per pound for freight on the rich soil held in the fleeces shipped by them is neither profita ble to them nor satisfactory to the con signees. The sheep-owners are. there fore, discussing the establishment of scouring-mills at convenient points, as was long since suggested by the Tribune, :is a measure of relief. That there are some objections to this plan is true there are few plans to which there is none. One objection is that every fleece must be "sorted," so that each of the several dualities of fiber found in each flee e imay be placed with liber of a like quality from other fleeces. This will makeuecesary the services of skillful 'sorters," and to such men high wages must be paid, lint this sorting must be done at some time, and while wages would doubtless be higher in the est than in the East the saving in charges for freight would probably pay a hand some profit over any difference there m ght be in the cost of sorting and scouring. Wool thus sorted would, be yond doubt, sell more readily and at better pr.ces than could le obtained for unsorted wool. In most lines of busi ness it has been found profitable to $tn urate goods into classes to most readily and completely answer the require ments of customers, and there is no ap parent reason for supposing the same rule would uot hold in case of wool. In merino wools the shrinkage in scouring is from seventy to eighty per cent., while the lcs oily common grades shrink from sixtyto sixty-five per cent. Thus on a car-load, of say fifteen thousand pounds of fleeces, the Colorado or New Mexico sheep-owner pays say 45 J for transportation to market. " Of this sum from f 315 to "Jt)U is paid for hauling dirt, which, rich as it niay be, is really not worth in the wool markets the three cfiits per pound it costs to put it there. As the wool orrower gets really nothing for this soil, except left-handed blessings from the broker, the mill owner and all others who handle the clip, it docs seem unwise to pay freight charges, commission, storage and cart age ou such large quantities of the free brazing-lands ot the West. For some years hastern States have complained of the rapid tilling of the beds of their streams by ref-ise from their factories, and Chicago ha so grown that her fur naces and factories now make more dirt than is needed for filling her once mirv streets; therefore there seems to be really no good reason why the wool grower bt thenar West should" pay three cents, more or less, for hammg dirt tc fill streams and streets whereat is nor wanted. Chicago Tribune. The time to determine what sheep to keep is dur.ng shearing: then the owner directing and overseeing operations can cause to be marked such as are light shearers, aged sheep, in poor condition, without lambs, etc., and in theordinary lioeks. allowing that one-tbird be sold. it is more than piobable that the value of the two-thirds remaining, the flock to b kept, will bring as good an in come and be, in realty, worth as much as if the inferior sheep remained to lo ver the standard of the lot- Chicago Tinus.

And he loses his head when he lias most need of it, and gets mixed up with people's feet, ladies' dresses, children's peram bulators, horses legs, and the evil eye of the policeman, who tries to hit him. and whacks an unoQcndiug boy who stopped to see the fun. Then the lot dog becomes "rather leggy." He leg it for home, toward which nil K)ints of his compass turn at once. He is hot and homesick, dusty anil footsore, a target for stonos and brickbats, but he is legging it for life now. II llies the citylikea blue streak; he shoots through farm-yards and along highways, his tonguo luungs out of his mouth, his eyes arc lixed. At last a familiar something grcetfl him with a welcome. He is on the home stretch, sure enough. He cools down, jogs alongcomfort'ibly, and finally walks in sheepish at an" ojk?ii door, turns around three times, drops in a tired, dusty heap, and not even the tears of joy sheif over him can rouse him to being again until he has recovered from the effects of being "rather leggy. " Detroit Free Press. --- The Eider Duck. The eider duck, after the wild swan, is probably the finest bird that frequents the Atlantic sea-board. They nest all about tlwi island, especially among the long heather and reedy inlets of the Eastern coast. The great preei'Mces on which the Atlantic breaks are too steep and perilous, and the young birds, new from the nest, could hardly weather that tempestuous sea. From their earli est days, it is tme. they are splendid sailors. When thev grow older thev grow somewhat unwiddly, and are not ditlicult to shoot on the water; but the half-Hedged bird is splendidly supple, and seems to dive with the "flash. In clear shallow bays we can see the little downy morsels oaring themselves swiftly a foot or two under water, and whenforced to the surfaceshowingonly the tips of their bills. At this season the family is under the maternal wing drake, till well on in autumn, leaving his consort to her own resources. Mean time the male birds keep together, and are found quite on the other side of the island, in parties of a do.en or a score. Why they should manifest such selfish unconcern for their offspring, at a sea son when one would fancy that their services were most required, we do not know, but the fact is undoubted.
