The appointment of Mr, Straus,
of New York city, to the post of
Minister to Turkey, vacated by
Sun Set Cox, attracts surprisingly
little attention. Mr. Straus is a
Hebrew and said to be a Mugwump.
Mr. Cox says that he will make a
probably success at he Constantinople, and
will. The position
American minister to Turkish court
offers no more serious difficulties
than that of keeping from dying
the* bines, and as Mr. Straus ha-*
literary ambition, he will probably
be vigorously employed on
ber ture of treating books ot Turkey. The

WHAT IS FARMING?
It is something more than
ing on a farm. It is
more than skimming the soil.
is something more than selling
or potatoes, and bulky crops un
animalized Farming is a
a profession, a practical and
tific operation. The process of
ture must he understood and
ed in harmony with the
of the earth and air. The
of nature must be understood,
not in their technical terms
language, in that sensible under¬
standing, that common sense
that their own advantage and
bilities may bo turned to the
account.
The lawyer works by law
precedent, the physician works
symptoms and indications,
merchant by rules and
tion, the mechanic by
and capacities. The farmer
work by all—by rules, laws,
vation and experiment. He
be a skilled workman in the
ductive, operative and commercial
circles in which his business
and his sphere of circulation
tends.—Texas Journal.
