All ti the South there is no Presbyterian scliool, except the seminary at Colum bia, S. C, ami that will very probably be merged into the larger institution. The best place for such a m tternal institution is Atlanta, or its immediate vicinity, and 'Atlanta will no doubt be selected. At the meeting of the commission if. j on iuonuay evening, a report was re eeived from the tihance committee aD pointed on the 18th of July last aud resolutions were adopted carrying out the suggestions of that report". ... The re:$t:oiis declare that no steps should Be' take u to commence the Pies byteriaii. university or college in this State until 150,000 has been sub scribed in good faith. In the opinion of the comhiissio, one h df of this sum can be obtained from the church and its friends in Atlanta, and, in aldition, and elligible site, if theother half, $75, OtK), is sudscriljed by the church aud its friends outside of Atlauta. ? It is understood that a few of the rich members of the Presbyterian hurehes in Atlanta have already prom ised to subscribe the amount requisite to secure the location of the universi ty here.- In -udditiou to this manv others hiwe expressenl a willinmiess to subscribe" libe'rallv. A movement is now afoot to purchase a large tract of wooded 'Iuid7 within a few mile? of At lanta, for the site of. the institution.

Not nearly somuch iuiurvis rerort- ed from. the Hessian fly as former! r prevanea. When it was fiM'. intro duced its habits were not understood aiicKit'. proved very destmctive. - In eome- sections wheat growing was abandoned for it series of years to starve ine insect out; , Ai it win uox attack tje that grain was substituted for, wheat while the starving -process was going on. Another reason why it is less de structive now is because a parasite has been found which keeps it in check. iVheh the fly Was tirst brought from bermany by.the Biessian soldiers dur ing our revolutionary war, it came in tittended by the parasite that in Europe had always repressed its number?. De ferring wheat sowing untih the time for frost is one metht d of preventing its increase. When the fly3oes not find wheat plants during August; and early in September on which to deposit her eggs, she is obliged to place them on the grass or rather plants where the insects when they hatch cannot get their proier nourishment. The fly will not lay her eggs after frost comes. The scattered wheat plants that spring up after wheat is harvested are often the breeding places for the Hessian fly during late Summer and early Fall. American Cult ha for. Farm Life. A writer in Scribner's Magazine says that it is a common remark that farm life is not appreciated by our people We long for the more elegant pursuits or the ways and fashions of the town But the farmer has the. safest and mr.st natural occupation, and ought to find life sweeter, if less highly seasoned than any other. He alone, stridtly ! speaking, has a home. How can man take root and thrive without land.'' He av rites his history upon his fields. How 'many ties, how many resources his friendship with his cattle, his team ins dog. his trees, the satisfaction in his growing crops, his improved fields his intimacy with nature, with bird and beast, and with the .quickening ele mental forces; his co-operation wijth the clouds, the sun, the season, heat, wind, rain, frost. Nothing will take the various social drstemrers, which the city and artificial life breed, out oi i man like farming, like direct and loving contact with the soil. It draws out the poison. It humbles him, teaches him patience and reverence, and restores the proper toue to his system. Cling to the farm; make much of it. so that it snail savor ol j Th9 Largest Flame in the -World. T The flume that conveys the Vater, from the mountains to thejrservoirat, San a Diego, CaU is thirty-five onlesa ong, and is made of redwood. ; In .'to f bourse of the flume there are 315 tiw les, the longest of which is 1,700 feet n length and 85 feet high.

" The tunnels art-' H by Q feet in size, with con Tex shaped monng. - j ? - f hsich mile of the flume required, oa an average, 250,000 feet of lumber for- its construction, and the redwood trsea in the box is all two inches thick. The San Diego flume is pronounced by men experienced in such enterprises to oe tne largest ever bunt in tne world. So stupendous was the undertaking thai many said it could not be built. Good Pastures and Hood Beet, ProfessorS;ui born, in the Mirrorand Farmer, thinks that the character o pasture lands is an importaut inffuenee in raising beef steers, and that the poor New England, pastures tand in the way of growing the best high-grade stock here. Our very poor hill-side pastures are profitable for only forests -(rood pastures he considers the corner stone to the most successful type of i farming. To overcome the poverty. of New England pastures, he recom mends chemical fertilization, yard ma nuring, feeding stock at pastures, and alternating between fields and pastur es. Beyond this he advises that rota tion of crops include having all arable land in pasture from one to three years in rotation. Even then the summer feeding of good steers should be a prominent reliance. v Winter Quarters.
