dr must it he turned into milk or
beef before the value is brought
within reach?
Can we let the feed in our pastures
fall down and rot on the ground at a
piofit? or can we sell all our hay and
make more money in the end than if
we feed it to our stock? 1 think
not. If I can sell inv dairy products
at such prices that as much money

he from the hay and grain fed I con
sider I am doing a fair business, for
I mu making a homo market for my
fodder at lull prices, while I have
the manure left on the farm which
would certainly lie lost to the farm
had.the bay been sold as raw mate
rial.
As l look at it, the soil of this
earlh wo live on is capable of grow
ing a crop every year if too much is
not carried off. If nothing is carried
away t he soil will become more fertile
for the crops it produces. Now
butter and tallow take almost noth
ing from [ho soil, and a farm that is
kept oholly as a butter farm ought
to lio self-sustaining, that is, if the
liny and grain raised upon it is fed
out to butter cow* the soil should
ho «piHo as rich this year as last, so
t hat the increase from t he sale of
batter after paying for all tho labor
may he reckoned largely as profit.
If I buy all the hay, grass and grain
1 food, I must obtain such price j for
my products as will citable mo to pay
the bills, hut; if 1 raise all these. I
have only to pay the labor of hand
ling tho crops and the manure accru
ing from feeding them. If I perform
all tho labor myself, the income from
the farm will just represent my own
wages. If 1 pay some one else the
same that 1 would make, while 1 re
main idle or simply look oh, I, of
courso, must obtain double price for
my products or 1 shall go hungry.

something at the jeweler’s. “Now,
let me see,” she mused, “what can
it be? Here is my poeketbook, mid
there oil the sofa is my fan, and 1
have got my gold watch here, and
my bonnet, why where is my bonnet?
Oh, there it is on tho floor; it fell off

so she had—only that and nothing

“Jimmy-tho-l)uc>k,” of Virginia
Oily, Nev., is dead. Ho made his
living by a queer invention, lie
used to put a duck in a box, with its
head sticking out of a hole, ami
allow the crowds to throw clubs at it
for twenty-live cents a throw, the
biril belonging to whoever should hit
it'. Tho dueks would of course
“duck” their heads just before the
sticks whizzed along, and it was not
oftener than once iu six months that
Jimmy would lose. The following;
is his epitaph: “Old Jimmy’s weary
hones are now resting peacefully
under the sagebrush. Let us hope
that when the trump of tho resur
rection shall echo over tho rugged
peak of Mount Davidson he will be
able to pop his head up like that
famous duck, and should tho devil
appear and make a grab for tho old
man, muv he dodge back success
fully.
If tho best employment of a wo
man is to make homo happy, surely
tho best work of a man is to make
her happy.

the quest ion of
profit will depend upon whether her
food is partly or wholly produced
upon tho farm. Whut I claim for
tho soiling system is that on a given
urea a great, deal more own be grown
than by the pasturing system, and,
the more an acre produces t|ie great
er will be the profit on the labor
bestowed upon it.
It is of uo use for a farmer who
has a large family of children who
are woll fed, comfortably clothed and
fairly educated, all from the re
sources of tho farm, to claim that
there it* no profit in fanning.
If we take’a teacher to hoard or a
peddler’s horse to feed wo never fail
to charge for it; lint wo do not give
tho farm dao credit for the meals it
gin's to our families and to tho horse
that, takes us to church or to mill.
1 admit that farm book-keeping is
difficult and intricate, but when the
fanner pays all his bills, aud d<m
liavo the comforts and eonvenionese,
and has no other source of income
than the farm and his labor, I can
not admit, that thonfis no protit iu
it, even though for want of a true
system of book-keeping he fails to
show that profit on pajH'r. —Cur.
