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

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

The answer i;iven in last;
week's issue to the A and" 1 5 f
: problem is correct. An arith-1
met leal solution was asked)
tor, but our correspondent;
failed to state whether it was
worked by arithmetical rules '
or not- j
We have received two soAi-i
tions. by a gentleman of lirer-j
ary tastes, which we give as
follows: Divide the total
amount ($220) by the whole
number of acres (0,",) the qtio-
tient, 2 AVill be what
A pays
perare, and the remainder.
30, will be the number of acres I
H gets. This leaves 0.5 acres!
as A's r .umber. Again, it!
may be worked by subtract ing j
twice the number of acres-
from the total cost: the
win be 31), the mniTH
I rr t acrp H gets. All sim
I ilar problems may be worked
in the SUTlf W1 V
These solutions are very in
teresting, but they are aierelj
mechanical devices. Tf our
informant can give us an ex
planation f his prncc.-1. we
Aould be glad to have it.
The following problem has
been liandd us by a teacher:
Two trains,, respectively (J2
and S4 fret long, are moving
on parallel rails ; when thev
move in the same direction,
rhe faster passes the slower
in si- s .-onds. when in orro-
site directions, they pass in

The manuscript of a poem en:
titled "Lines to n Skeleton' was,
according to Rrvants Library of
Poetry and Song," first printed dur
ing the firet quarter of the present
century, and was saici to have been
found in Mie Museum of the Roval I
College of Surgeons in Ijoiidon near
a perfect human skeleton. It is
said to have been sent by the cura
tor to the Morning Chronicle for
publication. It exeitea so much
attention that every effort was made
to'discover the author, and a respon
sible party went so far us to offer ra
reward of fifty guineas for informa
tion that would discover its origiri.
The author preserved his incognita

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. He will assume the
! Ilew relationship, I expect, March 5.
I do not think he has anjr intention
of taking a vacation immetliately."
"What share in the firm will Mr.
"levelund have?'
"I don't know," said Mr. Stetson,
with a smile, "but it will he les
than i.is desert
"WiVrcwill Mr, Cleveland live?"
"lie intends to live in this city,
but whether he has se'ected a h uise

"Has he sold Oak View, his pljice

"I believe noi ; aud whether lit in

and otFicT interesting sights.
Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Stetson
have long been close friends, and it
was understood Hliat the latter could
fjhavc had one of the must iniporkw-t
offices in the control of the Presidew
had he seen fit to aspepS ?t. It is an
unwritten but accepted rule that
Ex-Presidents resumingthe practice

advocaScs. Mr. Cleveland" will there
fore probably belhe"9ffice wiember."
His duties will be judicial iu their
character. He will prepare cases,
decide the course to be pursued in
theai and give counsel to clients,
but will not make arguments befoie
udge or J ury..
When President Athnr's term ex
pired he rejoined his old law firm,
but it was calbd Ransom & Knevals

visited the offices in the Mutual Life
Insurance Building only two or
three times and- never was aide to
take any part in the affairs cf the
firm.
