deseret we news As the time is fast approaching to begin raising the silk worm I 1 am daily interrogated how shall we proceed in lik ilk site raising for the benefit of those wishing to engage in the business I 1 will make a few remarks in regard to it founded on my own experience which has heretofore proved successful in the first place we must be alive to our business now the first thing to be done gone is to secure the silk worm e ggs eggs before the weather gets too warm to avoid their hatching and before the leaves aro arc far enough advanced to begin feeding in 9 in order to avoid their thel hatching place them in a copl cool dry place or cell if not damp in a box of any kind to preserve them from the micel mlee mice with a goodly portion of gimlet hoies holes bored in the ends enda and sides to admit of the circulation of air there to remain until wanted to vad hatch N from the first to 0 t th 0 of june juine bring the eggstrom eggs from your cool 11 repository and arid spread them on a pews paper upon a table leave them in a cool room it ft Is a best beat not to expose them too suddenly to warmth that would hatch them leave leage them in a cool roam room a day or two then take them toa to a warm warmer i er room roam a and ind spread on a table as before in a few days they will begin to hatch batch they commence early in the morning and continue hatching until near noon now your labor commences As soon as they hatch they start ossin offin search of food pluck your tender est leaves about the size of a quarter of a dollar leaving the tip end and one small leaf cut the leaves leave in halves lay jay them on the worms where they are the thickest when they are all on th the eleaf leaf if ii it Is not full of worms place it in another spot and so on until the leaves are full have au another othen other paper near the one you have your eggs upon then take a penknife pen knife and take lake hold of the e adge edge of the leaf full fuli of little worms placing them on the paper you previously laid on the table taking them up one by one as they fill up lay them close together side by side until all of that days hatching are taken care of now gather some tender leaves laying them one on the to top of another say from five to one bozen dozen according to the number of worms lay them on a board and cut them with a sharp knife about an eighth of an inch wide and arid crossways the same then sprinkle them lightly over the young worms be careful not to put on too many as the worms will attack the first leaf they come in contact with I 1 if f there is more than enough for them the top leaves eaves wll wil wilt and dry up before bedore the worm can get to the top repeat this operation every two hours if the worms do noncom not come i e up it is a sure sign that they have had too much feed and are arc unable to get up then you must feed lighter over feeding is a great fault jn in the first stage and must be avoided Coutil continue lue in this way each day during hatching taking care to keep each days hatching by themselves any person wishing silkworm silk blik worm eggs can be accommodated by addressing d the undersigned under signed

xe regarding those whom nature had created with imperfect minds or without the power of communicating their mental experiences in vocal language an are curious we sad in the time of the black arinee that deaf mutes were recognized as a lower order 0 of humanity than their more I 1 fortunate brethren but since their intelligence was apparent they were allowed certain liberties in JR all households coming even to the court and entering entering the banquet que t halls balls but never by yany any chance sitting with the guests or allowed allo ailo tved to serve them they might watch the feast with their bright eager eyes till all the guests were vere ere served then thel broken fragments in the trenches or chance morsels thrown to them as to the dogs were their only portion la in our own

had made him enthusiastic concerning these children of silence and in young edward gallaudet Gal gai landet laudet the son of a mute mother and a father whose name will always be revered mr kendall a willing helper in more incomplete establishments ts it had already been proved that this unfortunate class were not deficient in intellect they odly only lacked jacked the ordinary power of expression their education had been carried through ordinary branches they eagerly wished for something still beyond anel and mr gallaudet Gal landet desired to see an institution that would fit them thoroughly for any place in life ilfe especially for that of instructors Inthe in their irown own ranks the battle against the prejudice and aud ignorance of generations s was hard but congress at tit length made an on appropriation and the college wa founded there ia is a preparatory department but in the collegiate course all branches comprised in the ordinary classical list have been included one can comprehend how physical and mathematical sciences may be grasped by the deaf mutes but we are amazed when we find that mental philosophy and logic are quite as readily understood and acquired the college is located a little out af of the city upon the beautiful grounds formerly attached to mr kendalis rend Kend ales alPs private residence and still called kendall green the professors houses form a pretty cluster at a little distance from the chapel and carriages sweep up a drive bordered with trees and shrubs we were a little early on our visit A group of students were standing upon the lawn intent upon something which one of their number was telling they would interrupt his rapid signs with questioning gestures and we watched them with interest but once in the chapel we forgot the little group in the presence of the tho larger one the pupils were seated as happily excited and as joyously expectant as any auy stude students ants could be on commencement day there ia is no distinction here of race color or previous condition so several dusky faces appeared among the fairer ones andall and aud all ail were dressed in gaia gals costume one rarely meets a gentleman of courtlier courtrier court lier manners than president gallaudet Gal landet he never fails falls in the least or greatest requirement and the students will be very likely to follow their teacher the
