A suggestion has been made lately which seems not alto gether unworthy of consider ation, and which we remember to have heard suggested isome time ago by a verv practical J time ago by a very farmer: viz. that ar i tary work on agric in elemen- riculture be introduced in our public i s 'hools ; such a work as would ,r;,-p cOTn(i ;,ipa ,.f ri1(J, (iJfrrnf Mve me idea oi nie umeient kinds of soils, their composi tion, etc., and what kinds of fertilizers are best suited for them, and what kinds ought not to be used in certain soils. This would require some knowledge of chemistry, but not more than could be given in an elementary work on this subject. This knowledge, if it could be made practical, would cer tainly be of vast lenefit to those who are to engage in farming as their business. A farmer frequently buys a brand of fertilizer, and ap plies it to a piece of land, and is astonished to see no good effect from it. The trouble may not In in the fertilizer at all, but si in pi v arises from the j fact, that the chemicals con tained in the fertilizer did not suit the grade of land to which It was applied. A simple knowledge of Chemistrv would ! have prevented this mistake, j The objet.ti0n that there are no books suitable for this pur- pose, would not oe a perma nent one, for the very fact that there was a demand for them would stimulate those who an1 versed in this depart n.,T,t ,.,wlnu t.. ...... .... ... .v. .i-ui r w,. ! ply the demand, and in a fewj i years, we woulct nave excel- ! lent text-books upon the sub ;ject, and teachers would hi prepared for successful work jThis is the case when Phvs- i iolojjv and lh giae. was lirst j Vll,. ,', . it ,-na .i:in ! , , , , . . . j nd a pod text-book, hut now there are manv ffood works, prepared esiieciallv to 1 ii 1 1 i i supply that demand. .Nearly every other leading profession has Us needs better stiDidietl i 1,1 01,1 chools than farming.

There will be no change in the name of the law firm of Rangs, Stet son, Tracy &MacVeagh when G rover Cleveland joins it, as be will do, as told in yesterday's World. Mr. Cleveland will be a "silent partner." Thf present members of the firm are Francis Lynde Stetson, Charles W. Rang-s, Charles Edward Tracy, Francis S. Rangs and Charles Mac Veagh, with Wayne MacVeagh as counsel. The firm named nsrtl to lie Rangs & Stetson. Francis ti. Hangs, the senior member, died in 1883. Francis S. Bangs is m, and Charles W. Bangs is a nephew. Charles MacVeagh is the son of Wayne MacVeagh, who was attorney general in Garfield's Cabinet when James G. Blaine was secretary of State, the relations between the two, however, were not particularly cor dial. It is a singular concider.ct that Lyman K. Bass, a former jaw partner ot Mr. Cleveland, was an in timate friend of Mr. Blaine. In the winter of 1875-6, when Mr. Blaine was speaker of the House and Mr. Bass was Representative-, the two lived with their families in the same house. Mr. Stetson will continue to be the head of the firm, lie is com paratively a young man. but has a high reputation at the Bar. His father was one of the most eminent men in the legal profession, and fa- i mous for his oratory. 'r. Stetson j devotes himself largely to the pre-j v paration of cases und seldom appears ii" Court. The ft.-ni has an immense 'dli hcrfive practice. It represents many wealthy corporatitnis and es- fates. Mr. Stetson said to a report- er for t he World yesterday : j "Mr. Cleveland was invited by me 1 January 19 to become a member iut 0,,r nnib an(l he tacitly consented at that time.
