Vanity of Vanities.
Wbat’6 the use of all this toiling,
All for grandeur and display,
Where we know not in wbat moment
Earth lor us may lade away ?
Like the filtering and the stage-light*
’Tis but momentary show;
Earthly triumphs are as fleeting
As the melting drops of snow.
Oh! the envy and the heart bums
To excel the common herd ;
Let one tint surpass another.
And the meaner soul is stirred
With emotions base as a painlnl,
Mighty is tne love of sway,
And all-potent, vain ambition,
In the creatures ol a day.
Can yon find no life aim nobler—
Sister, woman, than to try
To excite the praise or envy
Of the idle passer-by ?
Is it worth the toil and effort
That yon daily give to gain
Madam Grundy’s doubtful verdict —
Fair and stylish—but, how vain?
Seek for health, ’us a cosmetic
Far more precious than you buy,
And will tint your checks, now pallid,
\\ itb a hue that does not lie.
Strive to do gome good deed daily,
As life’s Oriel hours onward roll,
Then your eyes will sparkle brightly
With the language o! the SOUI.
Oh! bow petty the ambition
For porup, show and vain display;
Recklessly to lavish thousands
For the triumph of a day.
Waste lor fashion's glittering baubles,
Worthless as a baby’s toy,
Wealth which in chanty expended
Might make thousands leap lor joy.
Rich the haivest, sister woman,
it yon would a reaper be,
There is many a field ol labor
Waiting, idler, and for thee:
There are little children crying
For the bread ol lile in vain;
There are numbers round you starving
In their weariness and pain.
Rouse ye up to nobler action !
If a beauty and a belle,
Have some loftier ambition
Thao ail others to excel.
Is it worth such desperate eflort
Just to queen it o’er a neighbor?
Life is short, improve its seeking,
For some nobler field of labor.
R. A. Ltvr.
Wlio I* a Good Farmer?
Wide differences of opinion exist upon the
question which heads this article. In the estima
tion of a majority of men, however, he is con
sidered the best farmer who farms the most land,
raises the biggest crops, works the greatest num
ber of hands, runs the most plows, etc. In our
cotton raising country he is beyond all doubt tbo
best farmer in popular esteem who raises the
greatest number of bales, and the largest number
to the hand. Mr. A, who with a self-satisfied look
tells you, “ I made 1,000 bags last year with 100
hands, ten bags to the hand,” is set down at once
as a “fine farmer; Mr. B, who made 1,100 bags
with 09 hands, throws A into the shade, and is
universally spoken of as a “splendid larmer;”
hut when Messrs. C & D come along, who “ run
eight big places,” and made 3,000 bags, “eleven
bags to the full hand,” A and B sink into com
parative insignificance, and the praises of C & D—
“ the most successful planters in the South”—
“ the biggest planters out” are on every tongue
wherever their fame has reached.
Nobody asks whether the “ line farmer,” the
“ Bpleudld larmer,” or the “ biggest planters out,”
have improved their lands by draining, ditching,
subsoiling and manuring; whether they have as
certained the character and elements of their land,
and cropped and manured them with reference to
their capacity and requirements; whether they
have raised their own provisions, made their
manure, kept accurate accounts of their farming
operations, and have a practical knowledge of the
science of farming. All that is asked is, how many
bags of cotton have they raised ? Their planta
tions may be spotted all over with old fields, worn
and torn to barrenness ; their fields may be seamed
with yawning gullies; their houses, barns and
stables may be as tumble-down and uutldy as pos
sible, without a flower or a vegetable in the gar
den, aud all the appliances of the farm may be as
rude and unsightly as can be imagined. The big
cotton crop blots out all other transgressions.
This is all wrong. The good farmer is he who
raises big crops and at the same time improves
his land ; who understands his business, attends
to it and does it; whose stock are of the bast and
in the best condition; whose fences are always In
good repair; whose farm buildings are com-
modious and neat; whose dwelling has the ap
pearauceof the home of civilized people; whose
mauure heap is very large and increasing; whose
corn-crib and smoke-house are ever full of corn
and meal raised by himself; who is surrounded
by all the necessaries and comforts of life; who
studies his prolessiou aud strives to reach the
perfection of farming economy, and knows at the
end of the year exactly what he has made, and
what he has expended, and how he stands with
the world. lie may not raise more than ten bags
of cotton, or even less; he may be only that
despicable thing, a “ patch farmer” but in reality
he is incalculably a better farmer than the “ fine,"
the 11 splendid,” and the “ biggest planters out,”
and the time is rapidly approaching when to
follow his improved system, emigrate or starve,
will be the only alternative left to those who now
despise agricultural improvement, boast of never
reading an agricultural book or journal, and fancy
that what they don’t know is not worth knowing,
because they are doing exactly as “ daddy done,"
toting corn in one end and a rock in the other
end of the sack as the most economical mode of
balancing the load.— Farm and Home.

san that the dairy should be largely em-
P ■ ed. Aet even this dairy land-of a moist na
ture—can be made eminently grain-producing; it
bu. needs ditching and thotough pulverizatiou.
Y\ here the land is naturally dry and somewhat
eaudy—as is the case with much of our drift toil
—the raising of clover may be substituted, to a
certain extent, for the dairy; this to enrich the
soil, which the dairy so well accomplishes. But
dairying may be carried ou with the clover—clo
ver hay in winter, and clover and grass in sum
mer. It is also known that some soils are more
favorable to wheat, as where clay aud lime pre
dominate; and some tor corn, as the deep rich
soil of out rivet bottoms. Not that corn should |
a!w ay * be put on the low laud, and wheat on the
. • lbe land squires that ibis be reversed oc
oa-ic.nally, unless Ue difference is very striking
Op a poor, largely euy soil, corn nill not do, save
when the season Is very hot and sufficiently moist
nod the laud well drained uud deeply pulverized ■
of course the land must be enriched lor corn.
And so wheat and other grains may be grown in
he Wiley; but if the soil is rich and the season
is favorable, there will be too much straw at the
expense of berry, the grain will be apt to
lodge mere or less. It will thus be seen that
judgmeot has to be used so as to apply the pro<l
nets suited with the soil, w.tb sufficient change
from |tbis to meet the general aspect oi rotation
so that soil accumulates no one property in ex
cess. Hence a general rotation snould be mora
or less practiced, while special products, on soils
suited to them, should be insisted on so long at
the practice succeeds. And it is test that must
decide this. Climate has also much to do in de
ciding on the rotation o! crops. Some of the best
portions ot the dairy district in central New York
will not do for corn. Xot on account ot the mo st
nature of the land-a this can be remedied by
drainage-but because tbe land is elevated and
cold, frost ocentring almost every munth in the
year. Hence corn is a donbttul crop, iu sec
tions where excessive heat or drouth prevails and
where the soil is readibly affected bv it, gras*
not a profitable product; clover and com will do
better. All things must be considered Viiea

Crcaturc Comfort*.
There is, perhaps, no one sight more pleasing
to the sensibilities of tbe tired aud weary laborer,
M be enters bis home than a neatly arranged ta
ble, spread with wholesome and palatable food;
and no one more suggestive evidence of tbe tbrilt
and prosperity of farmers’ home*. Ethereal and
high minded as people may become, yet, in every
well-ordered household, these creature comforts
mast be regularly and well attended to. And
though not crowned with wealth and affluence,
yet an air of ease and comfort and ekganca may
preside in the lowliest of homes. Luxuries may
be forbidden, yet light, freah bread and sweet
butter may supply these dcficience, and they are
always healthy and palatable. The hnsband may
not be at all times as orderly and systematic as
are the necessary prerequisites of a first-class
farmer; then all tbe more need of the wife’s
maintaining habits of neatness, order and system,
indoors. Habits thus formed, together with
kindness and habitual cheerfulness in childhood,
reach out far and wide into the character and
general well-being of the future man and woman.
The hygienic laws of health should also be6trictly
and rigidly adhered to. The “ ounce of preven
tion is better than the pound of cure.” Sleeping
apartments should be well ventilated, and bed-,
daily, thoroughly aired that the obnoxious gases
may be supplied with pure air; producing that
moat delightful sensation consequent to obeying
the natural laws of our being. Are you ; ossesstd
with a love of scientific, moral or intellectual
culture, always serve your rarestlreats after meal
time. The finest poem ever written, or choicest
piece of music ever executed, loses half its charm
on an empry stomach. In fact, I have known one
lady of such rare susceptibility that she kept her
table spread iu readiness for a meal at any moment
her husband might enter the house, “just to keep
him good-Daturcd !” The physical prosperity of
our being requires regular and sufficient sleep
and rest, plain, healthful food, and in this trying
climate, a proper amount of comfortable clothing;
and no hand like the mother’s possesses the magic
charm of furnishing these necessary appendages
to comfort and consequent health and happiness.
—lowa Farm Journal.
Tub Cheerful Face.— Next to the sunlight of
Heaven is the sunlight of a cheerful face. There
Is no mistaking it—the bright eye, the unclouded
brow, the sunny smile all tell of that which
dwells within. Who has not felt its electrifying
influence? One glance of such a face lifts U3 at
once out of the arms of despair, out of the mists
and shadows, away from tears and repining into
the beautiful realms of hope. One cheerful face
lu a household will keep everything bright and
warm within. Envy, hatred, malice, selfish
ness, despondency, and a host of evil passions,
may lurk around the door, they may even look
within, but they can never enter and abide there;
the cheerful face will put them to shame and
flight.
It may be a very plain face, but there is some
thing about it we feel, yet cannot express; and its
cherry smile sends the blood dancing through our
veins for very joy ; we turn toward the sun, and
Its warm genial influence refreshes and strengthens
our fainting spirits. Ah, there is a world of magic
in the plain, cheerful face! It charms us with a
spell that reaches into eternity, and we would not
exchange It for all the soulless beauty that ever
graced the fairest form on earth.
It may be a very plain face; one that we nestle
in our bosom or sing to sleep in our arras with a
low, sweet lullaby; but it is 6uch a bright, cherry
little face! The scintillations of a joyous spirit
are flashing from every feature. And what a power
it has over the household! binding each heart to
gether in tenderness, and love and sympathy.
Shadows may darken around us, but somehow
this little face ever shines between, and the shin
ing is so bright that the shadows cannot remain,
and silently they creep away into dark corners
where the cheerful face is never seen.
It may be a very wrinkled face, but it is all the
dearer for that and none the less bright. We lin
ger near it and gaze teuderiy upon it, and say,
“God bless this happy face! We must keep it
with us as long as we can, for home will lose
much of its brightness when this sweet face is
gone.”
And after it is gone hnw the remembrance of ll
purifies and softens wayward natures ! When care
aud sorrow would snap our heart-strings asunder,
this wrinkled face looks down upon us, and the
painful tension grows lighter, and the way less
dark, and the sorrows less heavy.
God bless the the cheerful face ! Bless it ? He
has blessed it already; the stamp of heaven is on
every feature. What a dreary world that would
be without that heaven-born light! and he who
has it not should pray for his daily bread.— Ex.
