The Dative farmers •oFvenPztioln ’plow witha crooked stick with one handle, just as the Egyptians did in the days of Moses, and nothing can induce them to hffopt the modern two- Handled steel affair. They simply can’t do it, and they won’t. General Guzman Blanco, who was always favorable to the introduction of labor saying 'machinery and methods, at one time attempted to enforce the use of improved implements, but he was compelled to give it up as a bad job. The productiveness of the republic might be enormously increased, as Guzman realized, by enabling one man to do the work of two, or six, or ten, for the great drawback is scarcity of labor; but the peons are stubborn, more stubborn than stupid, and will insist upon doing everything just as their fathers did, and their great grandfathers for that matter. It is the same spirit, the same rests' ance to innovations, that ctfuses them to ship their-coffee and sugar upon the hacks of donkeys instead of the railroad; that requires the payment for pro duce in coin instead of checks, and causes that coin to ho hidden away under an old stump or a crack in the roof instead of being deposifed in a bank to draw interest and increase the circulating medium. The workingmen, the mechanics, know nothing of labor-saving machin ery. All the timber and woodwork for house-lniilding is dressed by IieihI. There is not such a thing ns a plain ing mill or a sash factory in the whole country, and all the furniture aud cabinet work is made the same way. You will always find locks placed upon the door-casings and the socket for the bolt screwed upon the door, and the locks are invariably upside down. When you call attention to it you-arc told that it is the custom of tne’country. When a house is being ejected, whether it is one story or two, the solid walls arc first raised to their full height, and then holes are chiseled out to admit the ends of the rafters aud timbers for the floors. It never occurs to the builder that an easier way would he to set the timbers in the walls as he lavs the bricks.— Chicago News.

That the method of plowing wilt soon be revolutionized to a great ex tent on' the prairies of the West, there call ho longer be any doubt. The far mers arc already clamoring for a steam plow that will be simple and practical, and they will be certain to get it soon er or later. In this age of invention and improvement it is said that when ever a want becomes general, there always springs up something to supply the necessity. Every mechanical im plement now in use, calculated to cheapen production and save manual labor, has arisen from the urgent needs of mankind, and hence the steam plow that is suitable to the farmer of a-few hundred acres, will soon be an as sured fact. The self-binder did not make its appearcnce in the -harvest field until the Western praries furnished more grain than could possibly be harvested byhand with profit, and the steam thrasher soon followed, bacause the same want was the parent of both, the same may be said of the broadcast seeder, the press drill and the gang plow. The old-style grain cradle that our fathers used to swing, with their wide scythes and five crooked wooden fingers or prongs, is a thing of almost tbe forgotten past, which has been laid Ssidc.forever’ with the old-fashioned wooden mouldboard plows. In agri- cultue, as in everything else, new methods have been inaugurated, and in every step ol progress the object has] been to save labor and make farming easier and more lucreative. '^SPhere is really little in the way of su^essfully Applying steam power to plowing and harrowing, now that there are so few “stump fields,' 1 and a news paper; called Stoves and Hardware, printed in St. l.ouis, and prinipally de voted to the interests its title implies, thinks that the wonder is that some inventor, who would like*to make his fortune out of it, has not come for ward ' v ' l h a small and simple steam plow that will fully serve the purpose. —Scientific American PASSENGER SCHEDULE PROFESSIONAL GAUDS. — AND — ’ FREIGHT SERVICE In Effect Fed. 20, 1889. via The It A If,ROAD.
