WEDNESDAY MORNING Aug. 25 '69
The Poor Farmer
'We saw the other day in ono of our
exchanges, a li .0- pa rig ra p h Whit this
heading, in which it was jit , tly sn'tl
that a "poor fartncr cannot conceal the
fact that he is a poor f a nner." Noth
ing can be truer. His wink lies I,eltre
the world. Every passer can look nitnn
it and record his jtittt , eient. There
are his house, 1 is ham, his outbuild
ings, his implements, his horses and
cattle, If he is a poor farmer it will
be seen in all these. His very house
yard and barn-yard speak of his want
of industry and thrift, in clear lan
guage. Yet there is no one more difft-:
cult to instruct or reform than the man
who is determined to pursue his own
wretehed course, in the face of all his
'neighbors and the whole community.
And there are two reasons for it. First,
he loves 'the rum bottle ; and if not
this, then he is naturally lazy and a
poor devil generally. In either case he
has no future to live and work for ; no
pride or self-respect. If he is spoken
to on the subject he replies that he
thinks his mode of managing his farm
the best; ho was a farmer bred, his
father a farmer before him ; and he has
nothing to learn from the jimerack
course of modern days, by which,
though the land may yield more, the
cost in making it do so is far more than
what he loses. As to his implements,
when they are worn-out, he may think
about geting others, but sees no use in
throwing tools away that answer well
enough. As to his house and garden,
they are the same his father had, and
if they were good enough for his fath
er, what right had he to complain?—
He has little to send to market, and
that a kind neighbor takes and sells
for him. Ask him why he does not
raise more for marketing, and he re—
plies that it does not pay; the time
and expense consumed in going to mar
ket, the wear and tear of horses and
wagons, comes to more than what can
be made out of it. He bas reckoned it
'out and knows. If asked why he does
not substitute a different variety of
corn, oats, or other grain, for that
from which ho derives only half a crop,
he replies that he gets along well
enough with what he has,and it is
adapted to his land, while new sorts
may not be.
Everything is managed or mismanag
ed in the same way. Look at the bro
ken shelvings of his hay-wagon ; his
cart with a wooden linchpin in one of
the axles ; the wheel-barrow with one
leg ; the roller, plows and harrow ex
posed all the year round to the weath
er, and some of them still lying where
they were last used ; the gears tied up
with twine ; the barnyard fence brok
en and the cattle roaming through the
mcdows and tearing to pieces his
couple of poor hay-stacks ; the hogs
rooting up the orchard and eating up
the roots of the remaining grass ; the
fence in front of the house blown over
by the wind three or four months ago
and still lying there ; the approach to
the house thick with mud ; coal•ashes,
flat stones or boards are to be seen.
Everything indeed i 3 in keeping ; and
however unpleasing and even painful
it may be to others, and however im
possible it may seem to others, that
the poor farmer cannot but see it and
deplore it too, though helpless to im
prove, it is not so. He does not see it.
He will not know it. He likes it as it
is ! Germantown Tel.
The Trees do Not Bear
Several letters are at hand stating
that the writers have trees of such and
such varieties, planted so and so long,
but which do not bear, and asking
what is the matter. A tree goes on
making a growth of wood for a greater
or less number of years, according to
the variety. At length the buds. which
might have prolonged into branches,
take on a new development, and bear
flowers and fruit. In the natural course
of things, the time when this change
will take place is governed mainly by
the character of the soil. In a very
fertile soil, the tree will,make wood,
in preference to forming fruit, for a
longer period than it wid in a poorer
one. In orchards, the tendency to form
wood is checked when the trees have
attained a sufficient size, by seeding
down to grass. Whatever cheeks the
growth of the tree, and threatens its
life, has a tendency to throw it into
fruiting. The time reqUired for differ
ent varieties to come into bearing va
ries greatly, and this is a point on
which our fruit books are very defi
cient in information. Some varieties
of pears, for instance, will bear in two
or three years from the bud, while
with others one must wait for eight
or ten years ; and it is so with apples.
With varieties which are naturally late
in coming into bearing, our advices is
to wait ;but where a tree, which should
bear, does not give fruit when at a
reasonable pee, we should root prune.
The best time to do this is in the
spring. Dig a trench around the tree,
at a distance of one foot from it, for
each inch of the diameter of the trunk,
i. e., a tree thme inches through will
have a trench forming a circle six feet
in diameter. Dig down, and with a
very sharp spade cut off every root
that extends beyond the trench. There
are modes of summer pruning to in
duce fruitfulness, but these can heap
plied to only a few trees, while root—
pruning can be readily applied on the
large scale,
The greatest of men live unseen to
iew, while thousands are not qualified

A MERICAN BUTTON-HOLE
OVER•SEAMING AND SEWING MA
➢MEDAL AWARDED AT THE PARIS EX-
In directing attention to the celebrated
COMBINATION BUTTON HOLE AND
SEWING MACHINE, we feel fully warran
ted in claiming for it unquestionable superi
ority over all others as a Family Machine.—
The Simplicity, Ease and Certainty with
which it operates, as well as the uniform ex
cellence of its work, certainly place it far in
advance of any other similar invention of th
age.
It is also the cheapeet,intrinsically, as well
as the best, since it is really two machines
combined in ene, (by n simple and beautiful
mechanical arrangement never before ac
complished by human ingenuity,) making
either the Lock Stitch or Button Hole Stitch,
as occasion may require. It is, at the same
time, simple in construction, comparatively
noiseless, easily understood, and, in a word,
it combines with those advantages exclusive
ly its own the most desirable qualities of all
others, for it not only does every variety
of sewing in a SUPERIOR MANNER, but
in addition OVERSEAMS splendidly and
makes beautiful BUTTON and EYELET HOLES
in all fabrics. This is far beyond the ca
pacity of any other machine.
The SPLENDID MECHANISM of this Machine,
and the superior skill workmanship and ma
terials employed in its construction, are a
guarantee of accuracy, strength and dura

EWING MACHINE
THE SINGER SEWING MACHINE
Among sewing machines, those made by
the Singer Manufacturing Company, rank
with the highest. Their manufacturing ma
chines, have long been known as the best
for manufacturing purposes. But within
the past few years, they have given special
attention to the production of a
destined to win much favor in the
Thu machine which they now offer is quiet,
light-running, simple, fast„ noiseless. Its
accessories for
HEMMING, BRAIDING, BINDING,
QUILTING, TUCKING, CORDING,
are simple and easily understood. Ifs deli
cate though enduring and tireless muscles of
iron and steel, do all the work noiselessly,
better, and few will deny, "Faster than hand
can do it." They urge those wishing to pur
chase a machine, to examine all the other
manufactures before buying, as it will, for
itself, overcome all the objections to the
other machines that can be brought against
it. Machines on hand for sale and exhibi
tion, together with a full and complete as
