THE I01XU MELHAMC'S CAFITAL.
HOW TO INCREASE IT.
The increase of capital as ordinarily
reckoned money saved and prudently
invested is not at present under consid
eration. Every workshop proves be
yond the need of discussion that by In
dustry, thrift, and the avoidance of
wasteful habits, to say nothing of the
more reprehensible habits, it is possible
for any, even the lowest paid, workmen
to put By something, and thus, however
slowly, accumulate a reserve that may
be used as capital if opportunity serves.
The industries of the country are so full
of evidences of this fact, that it need
not be insisted upon here. Let us con
sider rather some of the means by which
wage earners (particularly those whose
mental and manual habits are not set
by Ke) my increase their working cap
ital more tffectively and rapidly than
by any possible saving of wage money.
By working capital we mean whatever
adds to the productive value of a man's
time, and increases his income without
requiting any increase in the duration
or severity of his labor. The intelli
gence or trustworthiness which causes
one laborer to-be selected from among a
gang to oversee and direct the work
of his mates, with an addition of a half
a dollar to hia wages, is productive cap
ital just as much as money at interest
yielding an equal sum a day. From
two to five years' earnings of our labor
er, saved ia bulk and securely invested,
would add no more to his income than
those qualifications which gained for
him Lis slight though materially valua
ble promotion. And almost any young
man can add fifty per cent., may be five
hundred per cent., to his income by in
reasiDg his worth to his employer, easi
er than he can save the equivalent of
one year's wages.
Accordingly, while we would not de
cry in any way the good advice usually
given to young men beginning life as
wage earners, "Save money for future
capital," we would emphasize this col
lateral advice: "Improve your spare
time. a s the quickest way to make cap
ital." A young man of ordinary capacity
does not have to work long at any me
chanical art before he can earn a dollar
a day. lie need not be very strong, or
rery skillful, or very Intelligent to be
worth that. An income of a dollar a day
for each working day is equal to the in
terest on f 10,000 in United States 3 per
cent, bonds, or f7,500 in 4 per cents, or
f5,000 at legal interest in most of the
States. That is the value of the com
mon laborer's working capital that is,
bis ability to do an average day's work
at rough or unskilled labor three hnn
dred days in a year, coupled with a wil
lingness to do such work.
Our young mechanic, we will suppose,
"very properly aspires to be something
better than an unskilled laborer. How
can he moat surely wiu promotion and a
moreliberai income? Tied down and
hampered In every wsy by the necessity
of dailytoil, it may seem to him that the
doors of advancement,for the moment at
least, are closed against him ; and with
out a struggle to better hi3 position he
may drift along, waiting for an oppor
tunity that m:t never come. Or he may
quietly sot to woik to increase his work
ing capital Ly trying to Ct himself for a
better paying grade of work.
This is usually the most obvious and
the easiest thing to r!o. By steadily
trying to do tbe work he has to do
a little bit better or a little bit
quicker, aud by clo.-ely observing the
working methods of more skillful men,
be can usually add rapidly to his pro
ductive capital. When he has fitted
himself to earn a half a dollar a day
more, he has accomplished as much as
If toe had increased Lis deposit in the
savings bank by the handsome u m of
$5,000. And his increased skill is quite
as secure an investment and quite as
well worth working for as so much
'money on deiosit. So, too, a good
'handwriting or a knowledge of simple
'accounts, which auy young mechanic
can acquire by evetiirg study and prac
tice in a winter, ruay easily secure his
promotion toa portion worth half a dol
lar a day more than he could earn as a
mere laborer. A patient study of me
chanical drawing furnishes a still more
rapid means by which a young mechanic
can increase his working value, in oth--er
words, hU productive capital.
When our young mechanic has added
to his knnwledgo and skill enougk to
makeihia service 'vverth two dollars a
day to an employer, ho may fairly reck
on that he has ad Jed 110,000 to bis can-
iltal. And on this reasonable basis it is j
manifest that, of two young workmen
-of equal cat.aei.y, the one wlio-making
no effoit to itivprove himself should
"bsiTo placed to bis ere J it iu bauk f.j.iKJO

In selecting breeding stock we do not
urge our friends to place a lower esti
mate on the value of speed, but to place
a higber estimate on tbe other qualifica
tions that go to make up the horse tbat
everybody wants. Intelligent and per
sistent efforts are making all over the
country to fix and develop and improve
the trotting habit of action, and these
efforts have been attended with very
marked success ever since breeders
grasped the primal truth that to get a
trotter they must go to a trotter, and
not a runner. But there is a lack of
balance in this profit. We are building
up a breed from composite material, and
while we are fixing and developing one
qualification, we should fix and develop
the others. It requires just as much
intelligence, just aa nice a discrimina
tion, Bnd just as many generations to
fix and develop the qualifications of size
and beauty and good morals as to fix
and develop tbe qualifications of speed.
To be successful, breeders must free
themselves from the crotchet of a single
qualification essential to a perfect horse
and carry them forward together. Thih
is tbe only way to realize on every ani
mal bred, and the certainty of this profit
elevates the pursuit far above the mere
chance of a lottery. Tbat a few ani
mals of phenomenal speed, and greatly
lacking in most of the e.her qualfica
tions, bring great prices every year, is a
constant temptation to breed only for
speed. But if we look behind the cur
tain and see the multitude of failures,
and estimate tbe cost in producing them
to aay nothing of the money thrown
away in trying to make them fast, we
will be content with the higher average
price which less crotchety methods will
secure.
In the minda of some there may be a
doubt as to tbe practicability of success
fully breeding for all the qualifications
we have enumerated. In reply to this
we will say it is altogether practical for
every man to shape bis course in the
right direction. If there are two hor
ses of equally well developed inheri
tances of speed and equal individual
ability, he can select the onn that comes
the nearer to the ideal horse in size,
color, beauty and disposition. Some
thirg of superior speed, even in a little
ruut, should be rejected in favor of a
horse of more commanding presence.
The aims and objects pf the breeder
of trotters are very different from the
aims and objects of the breeder of run
ners. As soon as the racing qualities of
the latter are exhausted the greater por
tion of them are sold lor the purposes of
common drudgery, and at common
drudge prices. At 4 or 5 years old they
are dismissed from the turf, and that is
the last weknow of thrm. The breeder
of Irotteis seeks to produce horses that
are good for everything, except running,
and that will remaiu good and servicea
ble till they are 2J years old. He seeks
to suit the road, the track, the park,
the family and the farm. In short, he
seeks to produce horses that will fill all
the places where horoes are needed in
our industrial pursuits and domestic
necessities and eujoj merits. To meet
the demands of this wide field be wiil
succeed best who produces the horse
that everybody wants.-Wallace 'a Monthly-

Worn oit Laxds. Tbe followlne
Is Mr. J. W. Lang'a advice to farmers
concerning the treatment of worn out
lands :
"Don't try to tenovate lauds that
ought never to have been cleared.
"Don't undertake to restore a piece
of worn out land without giving it a
good deal of hard, sharp thought before
hand. "Don't get discouraged in the first at
tempt, nor attempt too lare a piece the
first time. Keep a strict and just ac
count with each improvement, aDd
study the lessons it presents.
"Don't try to improve wet lands un
til properly underdrained.
"Don't be afraid to lay out a few dol
lars in a well-devised farm improve
ment. Get up a faith in yourself and
in your farm.
"Don't fail to thoroughly learn tho
difference between 90 per cent, and 110
per cent.
"Don't be too sanguine at the first
success, or too discouraged at the Crst
failure.
"Don't keep on selling bone oft the
farm, and not buying any back for a fer
tilizer. "Don't neglect to make and save all
the manure solid and liquid and all
fertilizing material possible about the
farm to use as judgment directs.
"Don't sell hay and buy stable ma
nure, or depend wholly on commercial
fertilizers.
"Don't take anybody's say so, but ex
amine for yourself, and do your own
thinking.
"Don't despise books or book-farming
but read, reflect and act."
Trunk the IIbdok Roots. Most
kinds of hedge plants, under natural
conditions, grow to bo large trees. By
crowding them closely in a row and fre
quently pruniDg the heads they become
dwarfed and, with branching low, serve
a valuable purpose as barriers. The
practice of root pruning hedges is not as
common as it should be. It is another
means of checking the growth of the
shrubs, wdich, in whatever way it ia
done, is very desirable so long as health
is not impaired. This may be accom
plished by making a neat ditch about
fifteen inches deep and close up on each
side of the row, cutting off. all the roots
that are met. Afterwards the ditch is
filled tip again. A gain always comes
by this plan from the crops near the
hedge not being interfered with by the
hedge root?.

One of the things that can't he provf.D
that animals winter better without
shelter than with.
A place for everything aud everj th:..
in its place may be an oil saw, but
can suggest uo improvement on it f,,r
the farmer's use.
It is stated by those whose pens U;.
been visited by bog cholera that whet,
the carcasses of the hogs are not Lur;.r j
the buzxards. which feed upon th:a
carry the disease to remote points.
An experienced dairyman says tie
grain of butter may be spoiled in cLutl
ing where great Laste is used. A slj
regular stroke is absolutely neceart
and indispensable in manufacturing a
first class article.
An Illinois farmer gives his hogs rti
pepper tea on their showing Eym;itor
of "cholera, and claims tht this Las
ways proved an effectual cure, and tl,;
he has never lost a porker so treat-:
while his neighbors have suffered se
riously. A Durseryman asserts that apple tr
which have straight and nprigM to-,
haye roots of a similar character. : J,
that those which have low and s$ r '.
ing tops have boshy roots. Kvtz tU

of some varieties extended to the root"
The nurseryman istherefDie able tod .

The craving for salt bv all anirn'.s i!
not the result of feeding under the cart
of a man. While this country waa ai; 4
forest every Bait spring was frequi-L'.r.
by deer, and this fact was taken adv;:
tape of by hunters for their cap'ur
Near the ocean it :s true that fz'.
contain more salt, but we h.ve i:'t
found the most libera! dressing f
as a fertilizer would obviate the cect.s:
ty of giving sa.lt to animals fed on tLr
crops thus manured.
There are many farmers wbo are r
of good hay, atid, in fact, there are al
ways likely to te, since the convic'i-:
is fast spreading that hay is rtaily ou'
of the most expensive foods on wLiuli ':
winter stock. (Jood straw cut up in
and mixed with corn meal, wheat br.:
and middlings, makes an excellent ft:
for all kinds of stock. Cne of the feeV
each day may be cut cornst.-ilks.
With the disuse of wood ihes thtre :
a smaller supply of ashes on most farL
and this may in part account for tt
diflicuUy in growing fruit. No m--.
profitable use of ashes can be maJf tl.k
in apple or other fruit orchard?. I. :

Where the grain is only to be used f
feeding, oats and ia3 are s.imetinif
grown together. The practice is an f i
cellent one, as the two grains will pro
duce more feed than either grown se;
rately. They are also good when cu
green for soilng purposes, or for putiit-i
into the silo. Peas are strorg. ricl
feed, and their vines shade the grout.-3
so completely that they act as a mule:
to the soil during the hottest weather
Oats growing with peas keep the vice:
of the latter from falling down.
As many people are beginning in it
poultry busiuess, a caution may t
ceeded against building very expem:r
houses, and especially very large pip?
If you calculate to keep .rHi or 1
fowls do not build any one structure f
more than a tenth of that tu:rx,lT. -zi
do not keep more than fifty togetLei.
Then, if you succeed, it will be tLee
est thing in tbe world to build a eeeoui
or third, or fourth house like the ilrs:
with as many Improvements as eiper:

It is generally agreed among prno!
gists that the characters of the fiuits c
different vaiieties are too vague &ai a
defined to answer all tbe purposes ;
identification. Attention is being tun:''
to the flower. We might suggest t!
more attention be given to the penf
habit of the tree. Most varieties are'
well marked by the shape of the t :
disposition of the limbs, color of t
twigs and leaves, shapes of the leav?"
etc., as to be at once distinguished ''
experts. The time of blossoming,
leafJng, etc., is also a distinctive feat
It ia probable that all our small pra"

There ia ne enemy to the wheat plant
dangerous as another wheat plant c
testing with it for light and room :n ti
struggle for existence. Both want bV
same food wheu there is not enough ?'
both. The result is a puny rio1- :
however the field may be fertii,:- -
The same is true of oats and barirj
Farmers well understand the bad eec:
of too thick a stand of corn in dimici!
ing the grain yield. Three stalks iu
