Jarm,
FARMERS— ENGLISH AND AMERICAN
bt geobge wiluam ccrtis.
We make the following extracts from an
address by that liberal gentleman, and accom
r.liehed scholar, George William Cnrtis, be
fore an agricultural society in Massachu
setts:—
I said the story of the farmer, the actual
farm laborer, is a hard, sad tale, England is
a garden, English agriculture is a fine art. It
is the most exquisite and finished in the world
Bat nine hundred years ago in England, the
farm laborer was a slave, and to-day he is
the most ignorant and wretched man upon
that island.
Bat crossing the sea in the path of the 1 il
grims we leave that wretchedness behind.
Going from the gray shore to the green inte
rior, we pass onward from the soft and placid
valley of the Connecticut, over the shaggy
hills of Berkshire and the spacious basin of
the Hudson, through the broad and beautiful
fields of Mohawk and the western New York,
until we stand rejoicing upon the prairies: the
granary of the continent, the paradise of far
ming population which has feit all the won
derful impulse of the modern improvements;
a region of cheap books, of agricultural
schools, magazines, papers and libraries.
Everywhere we see the farmer multiplying
his hands a hundred fold by canning ma
chine*. In the last eight years before the
war, more than two hundred different patents
for mowers and reapers alone, were granted
in the United States.—and the farmers can
do twice as much work with the same number
of teams and men, as they could fitly years
ago. We pass through a nation of small
proprietors, cultivating their own land: mana
ging tbeir own town, county, State and na
tional affairs: the happiest and most prosper
ous farming population in the worid, who are
free themselves, and the great bulwark of
freedom upon this continent.
But while this is unquestionably true, there
is another Tiew. Fine agriculture is still a
theory rather than a practice. Agricultural
labor is probably, upon the whole, less well
paid than any other. Few young men aspire
to be great farmers. A leading agricultural
paper confesses regretfully that "country life
is not attractive to those who cultivate the
earth:" and the road to wealth and ease that
lies through a farm, seems to those who are
not actually obliged to journey that way, like
Jord&D, a hard road to travel.
While this is true of the farmer, how is it
with the farmer's wife, for the position and
character of woman is always the measure of
civilization ? In the oldest English book
upon fanning Judge Fitz Herbert says: "It
is the wife's occupation to winnow all man
ner of corn, to make malt, to wash and wring
to make hay, to shear corn, aud in time of
need to help her husband fill the muck-wain
(or dung carts.) to drive the plough, to load
corn, hay and such other; and to go or ride to
the market to sell butter, cheese, milk, eggs,
chickens, capons, hens, pigs, geese, and all
manner of corn." The good Judge forgets
to mention one other most important occupa
tion of the wife, which she is expected to add
to all these, and that is to bear and rear chil
dren; a duty which in New England she faith
fully perforins.
But as I read these words of more than
three hundred years ago, I think of many
and many a aad-eyed woman I have known in
solitary country homes who seemed never to
have smiled, who struggled with hard hands
through melting heat and pinching cold, to
hold back poverty and want that hovered like
wolves about an ever increasing floci of
children. How it was scour in the mourning
aud scrub at night, and scold all day long!
How care blurred the window like a cloud
hiding the lovely landscape. How anxiety
gnarled at her heels, dogging her like a cur!
How little she knew or cared that bobolinks
drunk with blithe idleness, tumbled and sang
in the meadows below, that the earth was
telling the time of year with flowers in the
woods above. As I think of these things, of
this solitary incessant drudgery—of the taci
turn husband coming in heavy with sleep—
too weary to read, to talk, to think,—l do not
wonder that the mad houses are so richly
recruited from the farm houses, as the statis
tics show, —that the farmer's daughter hangs
enchanted over stories in the weekly paper of
the handsome Edward Augustus, with white
hands and black eyes,—nor that the farmer's
son hears the city bells that long ago rang to
W bittington. "Turn again, Whittington,
lord mayor of London," ringing to him as he
pauses inthe furrow.—"Turn again, plowboy, j
millionare and merchant!"
Now what is the reason that agriculture,
the most necessary work in the world' and
which employs, as we saw, two-tbirds of its
inhabitants: without which the race perishes
and the world ends; which, in fls very charac
ter, should be the nurse of robust health aud
sterling virtues, and by its conditions decora
ted with all the glory and grace of nature —
has advanced so slowly?
Ignnanceand consequent negligence are
the reasons usually offered; and undoubtedly
there is more jealousy cf what is called book
farming in this country than there should be
among an intelligent people. But a man who
has inherited a mortgaged farm and almost a
mortgaged life who must support his family
and pay his debts out of his reluctants, for
acres cannot afford to try experiments, for
the loss of a crop may entangle him beyond
recovery. The books that tempi him are
therefore objects of suspicion and jealousy,
and at last he settles down defiantly into the
sullen assertion that his father's way is good
enough for him, and so struggles aud stag
nates in his fhuther's way, and at last be.
queaths the same destiny to his son, who, on
his fathers starving land, has been dreaming
of fat prairies and western river bottoms, as
the old Spaniards dreamed of the golden In
dies, until bound by no love to a spot where
he has only warded off starvation, he erai - J
grates to fields which waste and ignorance
cannot soon destroy.
But while there is undoubtedly this jeal
ousy of what is contemptuously called book
farming by its better name of science and ex
perience, is becoming more and more essen
tial to the American farmer and to the com
mon prosperity. For with our rapidly in
creasing population, and the probability
stated with great force by Col. Gilpin, that
our western movement has now reached the
bmit of our strictly agricultural territory—
the great plains of Missouri being from their
natural and inevitable dryness, rather pastor
al taan arable regions—our agriculture can
no longer depend wholly npon the depth of
of the prairiee, but must look to
deepening Jn llg OWQ knowledge-
To the farmer of few acres, knowledge is
capital. Science makes ten acres a hundred;
and more science makes them a thousand.
en *nty tarmers, owning together two
thousand acres, know the value of a machine
which couid do the work for all, and none
could individually buy, then they know and
can do and w, do all that the single proprietor
of two thousand acres can do; and instead of
one great proprietor, that country baa twenty
small proprietors with a direct interest in its
•character and prosperity such as nothing else
confers. The farmer may say that he has no
time to do what he believes must be done.
Let the farmer understand that ignorance is
the bulwark of despotism, and that despotism
decrees the slavery of the farmer, —and he
trill find time to defend himself.
Bnt beneath all other reasons of the his
torical condition of the farmer is the funda
mental reason, and that is the feudal or
aristocratic principle, which has always pre
vailed in various forms in every country, and
which oppresses the farmer most of all. It is
a theory that God made a little of his bnman
clay into porcelain vases to hold the dizzy
wine of exclusive power, but the most of it
into common crockery for base uses: a theory
that the many are made for the few, or, as
Voltaire defined it in government, "it is the
art of making two thirds of a nation pay all it
possibly can pay for the benefit of the other
third."
This system is the four-fold enemy of the
farmer. First, it distributes all the land to a
few proprietors. Second, to those few propri
etors it gives exclusive political power. Third,
it degrades labor by making the laborer wholly
dependent upon those few; and fourth, it fos
ters their ignorance that tbey may be willing
slaves. In a word, tljg aristocratic system
gives political power to the land and the land
to the few. The popular system divides the
land and derives political power from man
hood. What is the result of the aristocratic
system npon the general welfare, and es
pecially upon the farmer? Look at Eenglarid.
The united kingdom is composed ot 78,000,-
000 acres of iand and has nearly 30,000,000
inhabitants. Thirty thousand persons own
all the land, and the English school system
is worst of any civilized country. What
follows? Mr. Olmstead, in his most valuable
and delightful book, "The Walks and Talks
of an American Farmer in England," says :
"I did not see in Ireland, or in Germany, or
in France, nor did I ever see among our
negroes or Indians, or among the Chinese or
Malays, men whose tastes were such mere
instincts, and whose mode of life was so low,
1 so like domestic animals altogether—as these
farm laborers." He spoke of them to an
intel'igent radical, who replied; "we are not
used to regard that class in forming a judge
ment of national character, and yet it is
probably the largest class in England."
The wisest English statesmen agree that
the root of the Irish difficulty is the land ten
ure. They will presently see that it is the
root of the English difficulty, and that Eng
land is in constant danger so long as 30, 000
proprietors own the soil of the country. They
will soon question the right of the Marquis of
Bredaib&ne to turn sheep walks into game
preserves: and unless some method of increas
ing the ownership of land is adopted, per
haps by re-distributing taxation so that the
land will be sold to escape the heavy burden,
the proprietorships will be abolished in Eng
land, as they were in Frauce, by civil convul
sion.

ASKING TOO MICH. —A young couple
were sitting together in a romantic spot,
with birds and flowers about them when the
following dialogue ensued:
'My dear, if the sacrifice of nay life would
please thee, gladly would I lay it at thy

"Oh, sir; you're too kind. But it just
reminds me that I wish you would stop
using tobacco."
Can t think of it. It s a habit to which
I am wedded."
"Very well, sir. Since this is the way
you lay down your life for me, and as you
are already wedded to tobacco, I 'll take good
care that you are never wedded to me, as
it would be bigamy.'

to endure a living death, or to put himself in a

Farinert will please look at the great advantage
in Thrashing Grain with
GEISERS' PATENT SELF REGULA
TING GRAIN SEPARATOR
CLEANER AND BAGGER '
With the lateat Improved Tripple-Geared Horn
Power, driven either by Gear or Belt.
No_l ia a eight-horee power, with caat iron
thresher frame and wrought iron and wood crlin
der, aizteen inches in diameter and thirty-three
inches long. Trunk has ten inch rake crank and
seven rakes ia thirty.(ire inches wide, and deliv
ers the straw on the second rake, these carry the
straw out on their tops, and deliver it on the
stack or. which will deliver about thirty Bve feet
beyond the feeder, on a stack fifteen to eighteen
feet high, and can be easily managed to carry
the chaff with the straw, or deliver it in a •eoa
rate place. The trunk and fan aides i cing closed
<o confine the straw and chaff, remedies all di'
cutties in cleaning grain against wiodv weather
It bags the grain by reasonable management suf
fk iently clean for market, and its canacity, u'nder
ordinary circumstances, i. from twenty to forty
bushels per bour, using eight horses and the sa-n'e
number of bands: but to force the work under
favorable circumstance, it will thresh from fort*
to fifty bushels per hour, and with more ease and
agreeableness to hands than any other machine
dow in common u*e.
The No. 2 is particularly adapted to the farmer's
use: in intending to apply to any common lever
or railway power; weighs 1,300 pounds; has an
iron threshers frame, and cylinder, 12J inches in
diameter and 28 inches long; delivers the clean
grain in bags, or if desired, in a half busbel. It
delivers the straw fifteen feet from the feeder, or
if desired, can deliver the straw and chaff togeth
er; will thresh and clean, in good grain, readv fur
market, from 100 to 1 7 5 bushels of wheat, or "from
300 to 500 bushels of oats per day, using four or
six horses, and the same number of hands; but to
force the work, under most favorable circum
stances, good grain, Ac., will thresh and clean
considerable more. The Machine will thresh and
clean all kinds of grain generally threshed with
the common machine, ard requires no more horse
power, but in many case- does not run so
hard. It will apply very well to a two-horse rail
way power.
Now here is what tne Fanner and thresherman
wants, a Separator to go from farm so farm, to
thrash grain, with more satisfaction than any
other separator now in use, and why is it? Be.
cause this separator has a self regulating Blast
which prevents grain from blowing into the chaff!
and also has a self regulating feeder o feci me
cleaner arid it has rollers and combs the clean
er which prevents it from choaking. Why .loee
this machine run so light, and give so little trou
ble? Because there is less friction in the .Tour,
nals, and the rakes and fan are geared so Ibat yon
have no trouble with Belts breaking and slipping,
causing dust to fall into the wheat. Why does It
clean against the wind? Because the blast has
direct action on the grain and the cleaner is so
well arranged that the wind has no chance to
drive the dirt into the hopper. Why is it built
permanently on two wheels and the front car
riage separate, ready to attach when necc-sary?
Because it is more convenient in the barn without
the front carriage. You can tarn the ma-hiae or
run it from place to place more easily. Why has
it not got Elevators like some other machines?
Because the Elevators carry the fifth back aiter
lateiy into the cleaner which must eventually gu
.nto the good wheat or in the chaff, and ail know,
that filth should be kept separate for feed, Ac.,
we might as well keep shoveling the Tailings
from under our band fan into the hoppe- and ex
peet to get the grain clean. Why is this separa
tor more cleaner and satisfactory to work about
than other*? Because the Fan and Trunk Sides
are closed up to prevent the wheat chaff and dust
from coming out and scattering over the floor,
causing waist and giving much trouble with dirt
aud sore eyes, Ae. Wny do Threshermen get
more work with these separators than they do
with others ? Because this separator ha* all these
advantages and many more, which makes it a
separator suitable ar.d a paying one for all
farmers and Tbrashermen that have grain to
thtash, whilst in most cases farmers must suit
themselves to the machine, because the machine
will not suit itself to the farmer. In short, this
is the cheapest, most durable, reliably, simple and
most agreeable to work about and the only separ
ator that will clean and hag the graiu sufficiently
clean fur market under all circumstances.
Farmers can rest assure.! that this machine is
no bumhng, and judging from the high recom
mendation of farmers that are using them, we
must tome to the conclusion that it .s the very
Machine that farmers wailt aud will have as s ~j a
as they have an opportunity to appreciate and
attest its merits, for which we hope they will give
us an opportunity, as wc are willing to be respon
sible if it does not perform as represented in this
Circular. Shop pricee of Machine* range from
$2 id, to $540.
fff-We warrant the machines to be as above
represented: also against any reasonable defects
of material workmanship, Ac.
