WHAT I KNOW OF FARMING.
BT HOBACE GMEILEY.
V.—Buying A Farm.
No one need be told at this day that good
land is cheaper than poor—that tbe former
may be bought more cheaply thau it can be
made. Yet this, like most troths, may be
given undue emphasis. It should be consid
ered in the light of the less obvious truth that
every farmer may make advantageous use of
SOME poor land. The smallest farm should
have its atrip or bell of forest; the larger
should have an abundance aud variety of
trees; and sterile, stony land grows many if
not roost trees thriftily. Even at the risk of
aronsing Western prejudice, I mairtaia that
New England, and ail broken, billy rocky
countries, have a decided advantage (abun
dantly counter balanced, no doubt) over re
gions of great fertility and nearly uniform
facility, in that human stupidity end mole
eyed greed can never wholly divest them ot
forest—that their sterile crags and steep ac
clivities mast mainly be left to wood forever.
Avarice tnay strip them of their covering of
to day; but, defying tbe plow and tbe spade,
they cannot be so denuded that they will not
be speedily reclothed with trees and foilage.
1 am not a believer that "Five Acres" or
"Ten Acres" suffice for a farm. I know where
money is made on even fewer than five acres;
but they who do it are few, and men of ex
ceptional capacity and diligence. Their
acbievmer.ts ai*e necessarily confined to the
vicinage of cities or manufacturing villages.
The great majority of all who live by Agri
culture want room to turn upon want to
grow grass and keep stock,—and, for such,
no mere garden or potato patch will answer.
They want genuine farms.
Yet go where you may in this country, you
will hear a farmer saying ot his neighbor.
"He has too much laud," even where the crit
icism might justly be reciprocated. We can
not all be mistaken on this head.
There are men whocaneach manage thou
sands of acres of tillage, just as there are those
who can skillfully wield an Brmy of a hundred
thousand men. Napoleon raid there were
two of this class in Europe of bis day. There
are others who cannot handle a hundred
acres, so that nothing is lost through neglect
or oversight. Rules must be adapted to aver
age capacities and circumstances. He who
expects to live by ea'tle rearing needs many
more acres than he who is intent on grain
growing; while he who contemplates vegeta
ble, root, and fruit culture, needs fewer acres
still. As to the direction of his efforts, each
will be a law unto himself.
If I were asked by a young matt intent on
farming to indicate the proper area for him.
I would say. Iluy jusi so large a farm, as half
your means, wilt pay for. In other words,
"If you are worth $20,000, invest half ot it in
land, the residue in slock, tools, Ac., and
observe tbe same rule of proportion, whether
you arc worth $1,000,000 or SI,OOO. If you
are worth just nothing at all, I would invest
in land the half of that, and no more. In
other words, I would either wait to earn SSOO
over, or push Westward till I found land that
costs practically nothing.
This, then, I take to be the gist of the popu
lar criticism on our farmers as having unduly
enlarged their borders : They have more land
than they hare capital to stock and till to the
best advantage. He who ba3 but fifty acres
has too much if he lets part of his land lie
idle and unproductive for lack of teams or
hands to till it efficiently; while he who has a
thousand acres has none too much if he has
the means and talents wherewith to make the
best of it all.
I have said that I consider ihe soil of New
England as cheap, all things considered, for
him who is able to buy and work it, as that of
Minnesota or Arkansas —that I urge migra
tion to the West only upon those who cannot
pay for farms in the old States. I dqubt
whether the farmers of any other section
have, in the average, done better, through
out the last ten years, than ,l e butter makers
of Vermont, the cheese-uairyman of this
Slate. And yet there is, in the ridgey, reeky,
patchy character of most of onr Eastern
farms, an insuperable barrier to the most
economic, effective cultivation. If the tidges
were further apart —if each rocky or gravelly
knoll were not in close j.r- ximiiy to a strip
of bog or morass —it would be different. But
the gpuius of our ap points unmistakably to
cultivation by st< ..LU or some other mechani
cal application of power: and tfiis requires
spacious fieids, with few or no obstacles to
the equable progress of the plow, I appre
hend that, for this reason, the growth of
bread-corn eastward of the Hudson can never
more be considerable extended, so long as
.the boundless, fertile prairies can so easily
pour their exhaustless supplies upct: us.
Fruits, Vegetables, Roots and Grass, we must
continue to grow, probably in ever increas
ing abundance; but we of the East will buy
out bread-corn largely if not mainly from the
West.
He therefore who buys land in the Eastern
States should regard primarily its capacity to
produce those crops in which the East can
never be supplanted—Grass, Fruits Vegeta
bles, Timber. If a farm will also produce good
corn or Wheat, that is a recommendation;
but let hint place a higher value on those ea
parities which will be more generally requit
ed and drawn upon.
In the West the case is different; for.
though wheat-culture still recedes before the
footsteps of advancing population and
Minnesota may soon cease togrow for others,
as western New Vork, Ohio, Indiana and
Northern Illinois have already done, yet In
dian corn being the basis of both Beef and
Pork, will long hold its own in the valley of
the Ohio and in that of ihe upper Mississippi.
As it recedes slowly Westward, Clover, and
Timothy, Butter and Cheese, will press
closely on its footsteps.
Good neighbors, good roads, good schools.
go::d mechanics at band, and a good church
within reach, wiil always be valued aud
sought: few farmers are likely to disregard
them. Let whoever buys a farm whereon to
live resolve to buy once for all, and lot him
not forget that health is not only wealth but
happiness - that an eligible location aud beau-
Ufu! prospec' are elements of enjoyment not
only for ourselves hut our friends: let him
not fancy that all the land will soon be
gobbled up and held at exorbitant prices, but
believe that money will almost always com
mand money's worth of whatever may be
needed, so that be need not embarrass him.
self to-day through fear that he may not be
able to find sellers to morrow, and he can
hardly fail to buy judiciously and thus escape
that worst species of home-sickness—sick
ness of home.
IMPORTED INSECT AND WEED PESTS
It is slated as a remarkable and vcy inter
esting fact, that nearly all of the worst insect
foes ot the American farmer and fruit grower,
have been inq orted frolTt the other side of
the Atlantic. Ibo Hessian fly, 80 destructive
to our wheat crops, was introduced some
ninety years since; the bee moth at the begin
ning of the present century; the wheal midge
forty five years ago, and the codlirg motb.
the house fly, the cabbage plant louse, the
grain weevil, the cockroach, tbe different car
p -t. clothes, and fur moths, together with
many other of these destructive pests, were
in roduced into this country at periods not
definitely fixed. Of ninety nine noxious
■weeds classified by Dr. William Darliogt. n,
tf t) est Chester, Pennsylvania, wo are in-
debted to cither countries for so J?ss than
forty-three; amongst wbich are St. John's j
wort, oxeyed daisy, burdock, plant in, mullen,
toad flax, Jamestown or Jimson weed, the
notorious cheat or chess, Canada thistle, the
dread of farmers, common thistle, field gar
lic, etc. Notwithstanding the fact that Amer
icans are proverbial for their readiness to re- ,
ciproeate favors, it is shown that we have not
made a very large return for the host of uox
ious insects and weeds with which we have
been so abundantly favored by our trans at
lantic brethren. Very few American insects
have become naturalized in Europe. The
American pea bug is found in some parts
of France and England, but uot to an
injurious extent. The only two American
weeds that have become so firmly established
in Europe as to be a positive nuisance, is a
common aquatic plant (Anacbaris canaden
sis), wbich has so multiplied its growth there
as to completely choke up many of the Eng
lish canals, and the American Horse weed or
Mare's tail, which has spread nearly over the
entire world. These facts would seem to
demonstrate conclusively that American
plants and insects do ml become naturalized
as readily in tbe Old World as the insects
and plants of the Old World do with us. So
far as noxious insects ar.d weeds are concern
ed, this is uothing to boast of, to be sure, but
that dees not remove the fact. Perhaps, if
the subject were more closely investigated,
the results would show that the great increase
and spread of these animal and vegetable
pests in America is due mainly to the fact
that our larmers and fruit-growers have not
been as careful to eradicate them as have
those of Europe. Evening Star.

Two little boys were met after dark by a

They have a rich joke on Dr. Egau, a grea

A somew hat conceited clergyman, who was
more celebra'ed for the length of bis sermons
than for their eloquence or iheory, once ask
; td the \ cnerable Arcb-deacori liale what he
; th night of one just preached,
j "Well, Sir," replied the brusque Doctor,
| "I liked one passage extremely well."
"Indeed. Doctor! Pardon ine for asking

It was in a Massachusetts village that an
old scissors-grinder, calling on a minister,
made the usual query, 'Any scissors togriud?'
Receiving a negative answer, it was the
minister's turn, which he took by asking,
'Are you a man of God?"
'I do not understand yon.'
'Are you prepared to die?'
The question struck home. Gathering up
his kit and scrambling for the door, he ex
claimed, terror stricken :
'0 Lord ! O Lord ! yon ain't goiug to kill
tne, are you ?'
Ax ice-house laborer being killed fcy a
lump of ice falling on his head, the verdict
was, "Died of hard drink."
A boy in Chautauqua County struck a dog.
The owner of the dog, hearing of the out
rage, went two miles on tbe double-quick af
ter the boy, and having found him, inquired,
in slern tones, 'Are you the boy that struck
my dog ?'
'I am, Sir,' said the lad.
'Will, was the reply, 'all I've got to say is,
that it was well for you I wasn't there.'
Having indicted this fearful punishment,
the indignant map walked proudly away, and
reached his home safely. The lad is not se
riously injured.
Tue Paris shop-keepers know how to deal
with kleptomaniacs. Not long since an
elegantly-dressed lady entered a fashionable
lace store, and asked to look at Valencien
nes laces. The patterns shown appeared to
her too coarse and heavy, and she left with
out purchasing, but not without carrying
any thing away. The vigilant eye of the
. cl rk detected her slipping a pice of lae<-
under her cloak. She had scarcely returned
home when a messenger arrived with a little
package and the fo lowing note:
"Madam, —We are afraid that the twelve
ya-ds of lace you selected to day in our
store will not be enough to tiicu your dress
and therefore take the liberty of sending
: you another piece of the same pastern, with
! the bill for both. Please send word by the
t bearer whether you will take it."
i It is needless to add that the lady took
the I ice and paid the bill, only u o happy
•t having to deal with a man of sense.

j YER'S 8A R 8 APARILLA*
FOR PURIFYING TOE BLOOD, j
The reputation this excellent medicine enjoy?, ;
! is derived from its cores, many of which are truly
! ranrvellocs. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous d'is
ease, where the system seemed saturated with cor
ruption. have been purified and cared by it.
S rfUlous nffetions and disorders, which were
aggravated by the scrofulous contamination until
they were pninf"lly afflicting,have been radically
cured in ► ucb great numbers in almost every sec
tion of the country, that the public scarcely need
to be informed of its virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison is one ot the most destruc
tive enernb sof our race. Ofren, this unseen and j
unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the con
stitution, and invites the attack of enfeebling cr
fatal diseases, without exciting a suspic on of its j
presence. Again, it seems to breed infection j
through the body, and then, on souie favorable
occasion, rapidly develop Into one or other of its
hideous forms, either on the surface or am >ngihe
vitals. In tbe latter, tubercles may be suddenly
deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed
iu the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions
on the skin, or foul ulcerations on some part ot
the body. Hence tbe occasional use of & bottle
of this SARSAFARILLA is advisable, even wh*n
no active symptoms of disease appear. Persons
afflicted with the following compia nts generally
find immediate r lief. and. at length, cuce, Hy the
use of this SARSAPA RILL A: St. Anthony a
Fire, Rose or Erysipelas. Tetter, Salt Rheum,
Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Sore Earn,
and other eruptions or visible forms of Scrofulous
disease. Also in the more concealed forms, as
Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Dilate, Fit*. Epilepsy,
Neuralgia, and the various Ulcerous affections of
tbe muscular and nervous systems.
Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases
are cured by it, though a long time is required
for subduing these obstinate maladies by any med
icine- But long continued use of this medicine
will cure the complaint. Leucorrhcea or White*,
Uterini Ulcerations. and Female Diseases, are
commonlv soon relieved and ultima ely cured by
its purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Di
rections for each ca>e are found in our Almanac,
supplied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when
cau>ed by accumulations of extraneous matters
in the bt-ood. yitdd quickly to it, as also Licer
Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion or !flan,mu
tton ol tbe Liver, and Jaundice, when arising as
they often dt, from the rankling poisons in the
blood. I his SA RS APA RIL LA is a great resto
rer for tbe strength and vig t #r ol tin system.
Those who are Lauguid and Listless. I)e.-poii dent.
Sleepless, and troubled with Nervous Apprehen
sions or Fears, or any of tbe affections symptom
atic of Weak a ess, will find immediate relict and
convincing evidence of its restorative power upon
trial. 1
