Tt.c possibilities of American agricul
ture ran best bo appreciated by review
ing ( ho facts that the area or arable
lamia in the United States cxcccdi
1,500,000,000 Bqunro miles , while the arcn
at prcieut under cultivation is estimated
to bo 174,901,000 acres , or less than 275 ,
000 square miles. Ilia probable tlmt the
next con 3ii8 will show n valuation of
farms exceeding $11,000,000,000 , and nn
nnnunl production of $3,000,000,000. The
fact tlmt moro than one-half of all our
peopb , v.'ho nro cngnning in the ordinary
pursuit : of life , are directly employed in
ngripuliurc , ia ut ouco n eufllcicnt evidence -
denco of ila universal imporUuice.
In the year 1878 there wore 51.003.000 ,

yield of .OOO.OOO bi nliels ; 13,170,000 ,
in oato , giving -ill.$55,000 bushels ;
1,700 "CO in barley , snowing a crop of
'J uL',000 ' bushels ; 1,021,000 in rye , with
20,800,000 bushels , and 078,000 acres in
.uickwheat , yioldlnga product of 12,277- ,
000 bushels. Thus the total cereal produc
tions for 1878 were 2,28-1,902,000 bushels ,
raised on 100,470,000 acres , while in 187-1
the total crojS were but 1,45 ,180,200 ,
bushels ; in 1875 , 1,002,821,000 ; and in
L877 , 2,178,03-1,640 bushel.s. The future
ncrcaso in the farm production of this
country will result largely from improved
syslcma of cultivation na well as from
extended r.ieas under the plow. A sys-
; cm of agriculture presents but little to
3o proud of which averages to the aero
over * .ho whole country n yield.of but 12
jushols of wheat , less than 27 bushels
of corn , etui only S3 bushels of oats.
Coniond with what modern ngriculturo
ia capable of in this direction , it is not
too much to afllrti that our crop , even
on present aren. nuur bo doubled in

Tlmt Wclicd Student.
A lawyer in Duyton , 01 > ip , had in hib
office u particularly industrious student.
3no of the clients was n young nnd
irctty woman , and her consultations
with the lawyer were always'held ir. his
irivatu room , behind closed doors. The
itudent became anxious to learn about
ho case that required so much secret
discussion. Ho peeped and listened at
; ho keyhole , and > yas rewarded oy the
knowledge that , while the legal bu : ncsu
related to the collections of small do ; . ?
moat of the intervhws were de-.o.p * .
to courtship. The lawyer desired . . (
woman to marry him , while Blie , bci.ij.
wealthy , feared that his motive vau
mercenary. On the occasion of 1 ei
next call the lawyer was not in , and the
student informed her that , although lie
hadn't been admitted to the bar , ho waf
confident that ho could deal Bat JBfactorilj
with her case. She said no , but ho per
sisted , popped the question on the spot
urged his suit eloquently , and was ac
cepted. The lawyer , in revenge , trie < ?
to whip him , nnd that was how tuo stoc
cot out.
Society
A correspondent writes that she think t
ier health would bo much better if she
did not get so lonesome , and asks if lone-
eomeness is not the cause of a inorbij
condition bordering on disea&e ? To
which wo answer , that man naturally
seeks society and also solitude. A haf
monious chungo from one to the other if
essential iff the host health. "SVhert
Uiore is too much society hc'i ; apttxD
wear out prematurely. It is no\ easy if
arrange lire BO us to have jtitt eruiDgh ot
each. If every hour brings a swum of
Vampany , the result upon the moral
. -attire is unfavorable. If. on the other
land , man is tot ztuch isolated frcu. Ma
i ellow men , hi&ooual nature euffere , and
Jie mental faculties are not properly de-
Velopod. Lonesome people who live in
die country should make friends of na
ture ; animals , plants , 'and trees. Thejso
secoine to them , in a certain sense , eo
clety. A horse and dog _ make very good

A Good Toaciicr.
The following sensible opinion comes
to UH shorn of its authorship. It is none
the less worth a careful reading how
ever : "A truly good teacher is cheap at
any piice. bo , too , if a good one be
necessary in nuy school , ho becomes
equally necessary in every school. Hence
two hundred and filly thousand com
petent teachers are necessary to supply
hiu country alone. To provide such a
iio&t of skilled educators is a far more
difficult Uu > k than to raise , equip , disci
pline and support an army of equal
numbers. It is , moreover , ti more im
portant undertaking , and JiectKyurily in
volves a far greater cxpendiluic of time ,
labor and money , if it is to bu well done.
True teaching or educational power is
not r.nd cannot be a cheap commodity ,
because it is not only rare , but is n uioro
diJicult and higher order of work than
any other confined lo human luinds.
The tiller of. the soil , the artificer in
wood and iron , or even the painter or
eculptor. with all delicacy of conception
and refinement o .ioucl > ; have an easy
UiHk in coinpiirlson with the true educa
tor who woiKU upon the subtle forces of
mind and spirit , seeking to mold his
precious materials into the divine sym
metry , unity and beauty of n perfect
character. If a high order of talent and
skill ho required in thcso lower nerish-
ablu forms of human woikmuiibhiji , how
much more should bo exacted of those
who labor upon imperishable material ,
end who are thus tumping the diameter
of beings destined to a lifo that knows
neither limitation M decuv. " ,

You can Bccuro the endeavor , the
couraco and the aspiration of a family
of children by no means BO effectually
tia by the power of love. Fear never
made the childish nature good. March
winds never made the buds blossom-
only April showers ; it is not the f.uherV
severity , but the mothcr'a love , thai
makes the child repent.

Farming lu Holland.
In the north o > Holland the farms are
lot over a foot I'bove ' the level of thu
sea , and some aiv lower. The nnd is
ooso , spongy muck , and is very rich. It
s subdivided into timUl parcels by ca-
inla. There are thousands of wind-millr
vhich are used to pump water all the
iuie. The dwellings are as neat as they
wssibly can be. They are built in
mall villages , clustered close together.
The roacwarenll paved , and not a par-
iclo of dust ia over noon. They measure
listanccs by the hour , Pnyinc that from
ilnco to place it is ten hours walk , four
lours by uoat , or two hours by rail. The
louses are all built as nicely ns any in
mir cities , about fifty feet square , with
about eight feet between the joists on
ho floor ; nil above is used for storing
iay. On the side ore the dtablcs for the
cattle , and they arc models of neatness.
Tlio floors are all paved with stone or
rick. In these stables where the cattle
ire , they make butter , cheese , do the
washing , ironing ant' ' baking and tl )
general household t . rk. It is not/tn
incommon thing to see hundred ? ot
cheeses there ; they weich about foui
\wunds \ each. The bedding always
clean , end lanlsa good while.When the
cattle arc put into the stble they are
put there for the season , and tied \\itha _
rope to the corner of the stall. The air
theiois always chilly , and the cowsaio
blanketed in ' nier , and of course are
warm in th lr stalls in winter , for tiics
ire cenerrtlly kept burning in two stoves
Uirough the coldest of the season. The
salves do not need to be covei ed in sum
mer , because natuio has provided a very
Uiick coating of hair for them , and in
vi inter they arc sheared.
