men that agriculture offer* them more
nssiired rewards than any vocation iri
which they can engage. We believe
t his is true ; and we wish many of
those who are standing behind conn
Lets for the mot moderate wages
could lie induced to think so. Hut
there is danger of over-estimating
what one may do on a farm. It is not ,
it buf-iness at which a man may lie
down at night poor and get up in tlie
morning rich. The young man who
lays out a f -w hundred d dlars of his ;
earnings, or of , Ins , patrimony , in stock- , ,
ing a farm, must not expect to become
wealthy in one year, nor in a dozen
years. If indeed he stalls out with
the idea that he is to realize iinmedi
ately a handsome income and begins to
indulge expensive tastes, the chances
are much against his ever lieeotning
wealthy. Instead of this, he must ex
ere ise great economy; and even with
economy, his accumulations will J
small for several years. Perhaps he
will be passing into middle age before
the profits ,f his bus,ness will author
ize his tnakihg much expendit oi e in

fanning. The picture should be tin
attractive one to the young man who
is full of energy and is looking for
some business in which he may exert
it to advantage. Hut the story is
with ly different front that of a fortune
imtiie all of a sudden. Such fortunes
are not to l> made by legitimate farm
ing. >S me times a man without cani*
tal makes a bold speculation and suc¬

gaming is safe; nor do the cases so

pondents in which men begin with
nothing and amiss gnat wealth in a
few years prove that speculation is
wise. Most gamblers end their careers
in wretched poverty, and most mere
speculators dose up in hankrinitev.
