A isiEWBRANCH' O1+'STUDY.
Prof. McCready of the Agricultural
College, Guelph, was in town on
Monday and addressed the Collegiate
Board and the local Press on the sub-
ject cultiur, th
jeer of g r e new � sub-
ject which is being introduced and
taught as a regular subject . during
the present term, Mr. Fleming, the
new science master, has: taken ' a
specialcourse fitting him for the
teaching of -this branch,
Prof, McCready introduced the sub-
ject by saying that the Department
had been trying for sixty years to, in-
troduce this: branch of study into
the schools and that Dr. Ryerson,. as
early as 1848 gave instruction in ag-
riculture and that it was clearly his
intention to have the subject taught,
that\he had. prepared a book in 1870
on the subject which, had been supre-
ceded by others 'from, time to time
but that nothing really :,practical Bad
e doneuntil -
been within wars
recent t
n - s.
when Nature Study" .and "School
Gardens" had become a feature of
the educational system;_ ''We •have
got through studying the subject from
a book," said Prof. McCready, "We
will continue to study this thing,
but from nature ; get right down to
practical work."
Prof. McCready explained that
county Ieprcse ta.ttyes
of which
Huron as vet has, none, were suppos-
ed in addition to their other work to
giveeinstruction in ,the High -schools
but that in more than one ease they
had utterly failed in getting a class
sufficiently interested to take instruc-
tion. The present plan of the De.
pertinent of Education in recognizing
agriculture as an examination subject
and giving credit for marks made, ev-
en ifonly as a bonus at the beginning,
would, he thought, make • it very
much more popular both -with pupils
and • parents. One hundred and thir-
ty liupils wrote on the subied in the
midsummer exams just passed, which
the Professor thought quite a step
forward.
"The impression abroad seems to
he," said Mr, McCready, "that a boy
of girl goes to high 8511001 to • get
away front agriculture, not to be
taught it, And the trouble is that,
we in Canada have done as all peo-
ples seen to have done to some ex-
tent and for some tiuce. Canada is
following the example of other coun-
tries and endeavoring to remedy the
error. If a boy or girl exhibited
any particular cleverness at books
and if he or she had an ambitious
parent or teacher this boy or girl
was given a special chance, was sent
to Collegiate and was ecoouraged to
miter a profession, never 1m' any
chance encouraged to remain on the
farm. But on. the other hand if a
bop showed no aptitude for learning,
if there was nothing in the school
course that appealed to him, he was
allowed, even a eouragerl, to stop
school before going very far, there
was always plenty .to do at hone
and if 'he was only to be a farmer'
1vhy, he didn't need an education,' An
education which only goes as far as
the third book is not enough for any-
one in this country," declared Prof.
McCready, "particularly a farmer,"
he added, 'But there has' not been
and is not yet any great body of
sentiment in favor of education for
farmers. This is the subject which
will prove that High schools and Col-
Iegiates are not only recruiting
grounds for the professions. Fifty-
five percent. of the pupils in Clinton
Collegiate are - drawn from rural'
hones. I have visited many High
schools and bare on
a e than more io tan one
occasion asked some of the pupils if
they had any intention of returning
to the fatlur when they graduated.
The answer is more frequently than
not ,just a grin as much as to say,
'What do you suppose we're here
for ? Our school system has uncon-
ciously,worked toward this end."
"Iluron has lost thirty percent, of
her population in• the past forty
years,".. wear on the speaker. "`Tow'
perhaps this is brought about in a
measure by the use of labor-saving
maehinery, etc., but there is still
room; in Iluron for 65,000 people.
Lots of young Hien and women who
leave home to seek their fortunes or
a mete' living in other ways might'
be profitably employed on the farms
Of Huron specializing in fruit, keep-
ing bees, and other' things. English
cherries can be successfully grown
in this county and can be brought on-
to the market as early as the fruit
grown in the Niagara district and'
these is no crop, so . it is said ' by
experts, which will yield so large a
profit for the outlay as the English
chmniy,
"What the Department is endeavor-
ing to do is to put sopicthing into
the School course .which will appeal
especially to the Troy oe the girl who.
is naturally, inclined to the •farnc."
"Some people have a mistaken idea
that schools; especially High schools
and Collegiates,,; are cultural centres
and should sold not be degraded, they
alight not use that exact term in ex-
plaining their meaning, but -that's
the idea, to the teaching of-agilcul-

FOR 'PHE H WOODS.
On Fridayn s
la t Mr. G. J. Wallis
shipped a • carload of horses • to • the
luiitbcr woods in the north and now
would buy up remounts if they could
be bad in this district. But as it
so happens our farmera have been
breeding many horses for lumbering
or the west, so there is in conse-
quence in this county no consider-
able. am n

for military purposes.
LATITUDE AND LONGTITUDR.
No, dear reader, that sixty-six foot
tower erected by the Department , of
Interiorout near the cemetery has.no
warlike meaning whatever. But, to
the contrary, it is observations made
front a series of these towers that
definitely fix the latitude and longti-
tude of the district which can be
worked from them,
The News -Record understands that
maps which have heretofore been is, -
sued, were based in the main oa the
work of the early township surveyors
and as these from ono reason or' an-
other were not always correct the
obersvations made from the towers
are to ensure accuracy.

MONEY IN ONIONS.
Clinton is being given a demonstra-
tion of a new industry this season,
that of growing Dutch setts,
'fhe•"mill field" just north of the
mill has been used for years past
for growing _ various crops Snell
as oats, potatoes, etc. with
more or less profit to those
concerned. This season Mr.
Schoenhals decided to make, a.change
and sowed Dutch setts. When .the
tender green shoots begat to appear .
very few persons had 'any idea as to
What they were. Men were seen all
sunnier nt intervals weeding, thin-
ning, .etc,, and :last week ,the onions
were plowed out.and are being dried.
It is reckoned that there may he as
many as five tons on the patch and
if prices are as; good as they usually
are it is' sale saying this ' , isthe
most profitable crop groivn on,
