, branches, at least as
ln a* should be prosecu-
ted. This, for one things to meet
all the market.; If one ormore fails
another may.’succeed; some: oh|i' : lor
more products will always
either in growth, being affected
the season or otherwise, in,the mfc
ket. It is seldom, if ever,,that all
products fail, both in productive
ness and price. Wool and mutton,
and sheep in consequence,have been
a loss to the general farmer for years
till now recently. The fruit crops
the present year are in the same
condition; so are potatoes; so are
scime other products. Wheat is in
demand;-so are wool and mutton and
sheep and other products. ; Thus
the products of the farm is fluctuat
ing, and this yearly to a greater, or
less extent. To prosecute one or a
few branches alone is very risky ;
ruin is often the result. With the
dairy this has less force ; yet for the
pAstfew years there has been loss;
loss with inferior and less properly
managed herds. Wheat was a dis
courageraent; now it begins to look
up again. Thus changes are con
stantly occurring. We need not
I point out the folly of being govern
jed by the changes; and yet this is
! done. There are two ways to take
j advantage of the these changes,
i One is to carry all the branches
| (where climate and soil will admit;)
the other is to thoroughly prosecute
! what is done—better culture, better
stock, better treatment. During all
the time of the low price of wool
( and the loss in sheep, there was
!' those who made it pay. They had
I good lambs and near a market and
j secured good fleeces from their well
kept flocks, and their mutton being
of good quality commanded a lair
j price; the whole put together show-
I ing a fair profit on the outlay ; and
| when the* times changed and wool
I and mutton were in high demand,
| they met their golden opportunity ;
j they did not need to buy and then
I run the risk of a fall in the price.
;So with all kinds of produce of the
- farm. The best always finds a sale;
and if larg°ly produced, on judicious
outlay, cannot help but remunerate
when a good market is readily ac
i cessible. Cattle and sheep should
be kept as well as the other usual
stock of the farm. Poultry on a
small scale can be made to pay well.
The same may be said of swine.
! Tint there must be good breeds and
1 good treatment; han-hazard will not
o ' •
do. What farmer can not have a
. place set apart tor fifty or a hundred
i hens ? And if no more than a dozen
or twenty sheep are kept —the best
kind, carefully fed and attended to,
• j
each sheep averaging its lamb or
! more, and often first quality as to
I size and condition, the amount and
1 quality of wool to correspond—who
cannot see that here is a nice little
income with a fair precentage of
profit? You can make much or
little out of a sheep. You thus
have your lambs to sell, your wool,
your eggs, a porker or two, good
surplus of butter from a few cows—
you have your oats, your wheat,
your corn, your clover, and corn
stalks to feed, and your timothy to
sell; you have some clover seed to
dispose of, some apples, may be
other fruit, grapes, berries, vegeta
bles; you raise a calf or two, you
raise in fine your own stock. You
thus have.a chance for a perfect ro
tation, extended or varied at plea
sure. Your clover enriches your
soil; so do your pasture and
meadow properly managed ; your
corn improves your land. In a word,
you have an interest in the market
of every farm product, and you can
not fail to get a high price for some
of them every year, and and a loss
on no one with proper attention.
Do what you do in the best way,
then you will ride the top of the
wave.—F G. in Utica Herald.
To Mend China.
Take a very thick solution of gum
arabic in water, and stir into it
plaster-of-Paris until the mixture
becomes of a proper consistency.
Apply it with a brush to the frac
tured edges of the china, and stick
them together. In three days the
articles cannot be broken in the same
place. The whiteness of the cement
renders it doubly valuably.

BY REV. J. BENSON HAMILTON.
OF BOSTON, MASS.
Churches or Lecture Committees desiring 3
pleasing and instructive entertainment, can secure
the services of Mr. Hamilton upon reasonable
terns. He is now making arrangements for a lec
ture tour through the West early in the fall. His
lectures have been received with marked success
in New England, as a few selected notices wil
;
WHAT THEY SAY OF “SMOKE.”
It was a keen and humorous exposure of the
“Sham and Show” of life. His description of the
peculiarities of some Smoky men elicited bursts of
laughter and applause. He was funny and instruc
tive both.—Boston Transcript.
It was a humorous lecture illustrated by an
abundance of witty and satirical anecdotes, exhib
iting the very superior descriptive powers of the
speaker, and showed in well defined style the value
of the real and true.— Abington Standard.
The lecture was received with laughter and ap
plause, as it revealed clouds of “Smoke” where
most people seldom look for fire. Somerrille
Journal,
The feast of reason and flow of soul produced
such laughter aod applause that it is confidently
believed that certain dyspeptics in the audience
were permanently cured. Fast young men. ex
tremely fashionable young ladies, old logy preach
ers, intriguing politicians, spread eagle orators and
various other personages would best avoid bearing
this lecture if they are afraid of sensible criticism.
