Much of the heavy toll of former days has been relleved by the improved agricultural machinery of the present day, and the farmer now sits comfort ably behind his fast stepping team, ac- complishing more work, and easier, than was done by six men in our grand- father’s days. And as to results, com- pare prices of farm products in the West sixty years sgo and now: 1828. Butter, 3 to 8c. Ib. 1888. 20 to 35¢ Eggs, 8 to Se. doz, “ 18 10 24c.

Corn, 15 to 20¢. bush, 48 to Me, Not only 00 tue prices of tu-uay favor the producer, but he has also great advantages in what he has to buy. In 1828 common satinets sold §3 yard, shirting, 25 to 40c., calico, 3U to 45¢., shoes : nd boots, 6 to $12 a pair. Asto luxuries, they were simply out of the reach of tue farmer at that UUme, whereas now, they seem to have be- come a necessity, from the fact that prices wake them easily obtainable by all. As to the advantages of living in the nifdeteenth century, they aren t to be compared with the days of 1828. They embrace Leller government, education- al, social, travel, and the best markets in the world, where 94 per cent, of the product of agriculture may be profit- ably disposed of, and by the results of the recent election, these markets will be preserved for the American farmer. Tages of the palm family have larger leaves than any others. The Inaja palm, which grows on Lhe banks of the Amazon, has le«ves which reacn a lengtn of from thirty to fifty feet, and are ten or twelve feet In breadth. Specimens of the leaves of the Talipot palm, a native of Ceylon® have been met with that were twenty feet long are used by the natives to make tents, and form the raln. long and several feet w de, a noise that may be heard at a great distance. Only one leaf is produced each year, and they are so Grmly at- tached to the stem of the tree, and so strong in themselves, that a man may sit onthe end of one and rock to aud fro in perfect safety. No Fear of Too Muen Povnrry. —Under this beading Mr. W. W, Weber gives some interesting figures. He has heard It remarked that as go many are engaged In the business there was danger of an over-supply of poultry in the market. Let us look, he adds, a a few facts furnished by the Bareau of Statistics of the Treasury Department at Washington. In 1876 the United valued at $630,393, In 1885 it appears that 16,098,450 dozen were imported, valued at $2,476 672. or an nearly four times the quantity first named, Great Britain imports 785,- O00 dozen egge, valued at $12 000.000. Ireland furnishes $500,000,000 more, and the home production is probably equal to the home importation. The annual production in the United States amounts to 9,000,000,000, representing a value of not less than $180,000,000 for eggs alone, Let those who worry in reference to the fatare prosperity of the pouliry business pouder the above figures, and not be concerned about an over-production which is far from like'y to happen. NEARLY four-fiftns of all the caali- flowers supplied to the New York mar- ket are grown, it is said, within a belt of about thirty miles on Long Island The soil and climate of this region is peculiarly adapted to the development of this excellent vegetab e, and nearly every farm from Southold to Riverhead is devoted to its cultivation. It is stated that in ne other locality on Long Island, or in the New Esgland or Middle States, can the plant be grown in such perfection, and this fact gives Suffolk County practically a monopoly and a yearly ncome of nearly $200,000 from this single lo vegetable. More meat, , and better meat, and in a shorter space of time can be produced from pouitry than from any other source, and the supply from poaliry equals that of any other class of live stock. It gives an opportunity to those of hmited means, and the profits are always large in proportion to capital in. vested, ¥eep the “plants by by feeding the ground, By robbing the soil you rob yourself, Nothing 18 wained by mtempl ing to grow a crop upon land that can- not supply the necessary plant food, Te only te wasted.
