HOME AND FARM. For this department brief stiggestions fade and experiences are solicited from housekeepers, farmers and gar deners. If you cannot write as well as you would, do it as well as you can. “Look” in Agriculture. In all agricultural communities we find a certain class of men who ore unsuccessful in all tlipy under take. Their lands are ns good as their neighbor’s, they have the same mar kets, thesame facilities for obtaining supplies, the same sun shines upon them and the same rain refresh- j es. but they have no luck. Os course the apology, as it may bo called, for non success cannot he accepted. There is a reason for their continuous failures. Luck is a word applicable only to games 1 of chance where reason has no place or where the want of it pre dominates. II we investigate the subject, we invariably find that these luckless tillers of the soil are men of little stability of character. They are men who do not think, who do not study. They are wi ather-cocks who change with every changing wind. They connot ‘‘stick to” a a plan long enough for its develop ment. They plant a crop and fail to cultivate it. They do not con sider whether a certain crop is suited to a given portion of land. They apply fertilizers (if they use them at all) without regard to their adaptability to the soil to be enrich ed or the crop to bo grown. In gambling parlance, "they go it blind.” As a necessary consequence, such men are “unlucky"—a word syn onymous with unsuccessful, in their opinion. But there is no luck about it. Anybody could have foretold what would resulted from such action. The conse quences follow the cause with un erring certainty. The earth brings forth liberally when pro[ erly dealt with, but she refuses her accustom ed yield to the idle, shiftless and ignorant. It is in accordsnce with the eternal fitness of things that thrift should follow industry and intelligence—that poverty should result from idleness and igno rance. In this progressive age the man who is not fully alive to everything that pertains to his vocation, no matter what it may he, soon finds himself fur behind his fellows in every way. If ho neglects to im prove his stock by judicious cross ing he awakes, some day, to realize that his scrub herds and flocks are next to worthless, while his neigh bor’s are eagerly sought for at re munerative prices. If he uses the antiquated tools of the last century he finds that he cannot grow cotton, cane, or corn or anything elso at a profit, while his neighbor, who us es all the improvements of the age, gets rich at the same business. IVe have too many "unlucky” tillers of the soil. We have too few progressive farmers. There should be a general movement looking to n reformation in this direction. Books and papers should be multiplied and studied and the character of the soil and the requirements of the several crops also. The most iguoraiit man can do much by us ing his reason and experience, if he will only concentrate them upon the subject to bo treated. Much, very much, may he done without the aid of modern helps—as books and papers—hut the mnn who per sistently ignores these has a "hard road to travel.”—A 7 . 0 Country Visi tor. Rest Better Than Physic. Rest would cure half the acei deot6 that horses receive, but peo ple will not give it to them because it costs money. A pet horse of mine had a very bad sprain conse quent on a groom's disobedience; his leg was almost as useless as though it were broken; he was Been by many veterinaries and pronounced incurably injured. I was advised to sell him or kill him. I did neither. I had bis p'ates ta ken off. put him into the largest loose box I have—one eighteen feet by thirteen feet —with straw up to bis knees, and then giving him no treatment except cold water banda ges, kept him doing nothing for a year, gently walking him about TJVi the soft paths of my woodß when it was fine weather. He recovered entirely after twelve months’ rest, and now he is ready to jump over the moon, and the only hard task is to make him not gallop.— White hall Review. The value of the crops of corn, wheat, rye,oats, barley, buckwheat and cotton in 1879 was $1,511,000,- 000. The I adust 1 ieus lice. There are 2,000,000 beehives in the United Slates. Kvery hive yields, on an average r little over twenty-two pounds of honey, and I is sold at twenty-five cents a pound So, that, nfter paying (or their own \ | hoard, our bees present us with a 1 revenue of 18,800,000. To reckon another way, they made a clear gift ! of one pound of pn'e honey to ev ery mnn woman and child in the vast domain of the United Stales In 1800, over 22 333.342 pounds of wax was made and given to us by these industrious workers. An ag ricultural exchange says the keep ing of bees is one of the most profit able investments that people can 1 make of their money. The profits arising from the sales of surplus honey average from fifty to two two hundred percent, of the capi- J tal invested. • WHfffKg : GEORGIA, WALKER COUNTY. Whereas Wai.l..
