Profit of Farming
We have more than once given our
readers our opinion upon this question,
but if it can result in making one more
satisfied with his lot, our effort will not be
in vain An exchange, taking the same
view of the question that we have former
ly urged, thus alludes to the question :
"When we go into paper estimates of the
profits of agriculture, it would be well to
credit the farm generally with those com
forts that make our quiet and happy
homes. Let us consider what the farm
gives us in the way of food, of house and
of fuel for our fires, horses to draw us,
and the many nameless things that people
living ii the cities buy at great cost. We
have seen more than one comfortable and
well-to.do farmer sell broad acres for mar
row town houses, and under the delusion
of educating their children, or living more
easy lives, to get nearer lecture and church
privileges, and by various other devices of
self-deception, persuade themselves into
the fatal move which soon proved that
farming was better to support families than
the price of the farm at interest. Gener
ally, these mistaken men have found that
money received as interest had a way of
going easily, and a very few years have
been sufficient to cause them to wish them
selves again the owners of farms. and to
teach them (as no other experience could
though it might be easy to prove or l
per that wheat could not be raised for its
selling price, and that no animal (from a
chicken to a horse) could be raised on a
farm for its market value, yet that some
how all the final results proved just the
reverse; for farmers do live well, educate
their children well, and leave them, at
their own deaths, valuable estates--aceu
mnlated, it is true, by slow proves', but
nevertheless entirely the fruits of their
own labor on their farms. Can any other
body of men show more unithrui success,
and more real enjoyment of life'"
It is not just to compare the profits of
one business with the most successful in
another branch, but, we should tape an av
erage in all cases. If the farmer will
only fairly credit his farm with ail it af
fords him and his family, we thiek he will.
find a favorable balance on the right side
of the account.
Watering of Horses after Feeding.
The National Live Stock Jortrnol, in
giving directions for the care of horses.
says: Another common fault in the AP
mentation of horses is the leading t..) wafer
just after a full feed of grain. The fit: , :
effect of this is to largely distend the stow-
ach, and the result may be as serious as is
the material were masticated grain and
saliva. But, should this danger be avoid
ed, matters are not necessarily left in a
better state. The sudden and excessive
113111 Z of water is likely to wash tuni;ll of
the content' of the stoor.:eh into the in-
Widnes before the nitrogenous principles
have been digested, and fermentation, ex
trication of gases, over dissensions, colies
and inflammations result. Even this is net
all. The application of an excess of cold
water on the stomach and intestines causes
vascular congestion and violent muscular
contractions, so that all tend to digestive
disorder of a dangerous nature. Copious
draughts of iced water arc hurtful alike to
man and beast. If it must be taken it should
be in small quantities only, and frerlaect't•.
But a drink of water, of moderate temper
ature just after a feed of' grain is full, of
peril. Thirst should be allayed before
feed is given ; and if any is allowed after,
it should be merely a mouthful, until the
lapse of one or two hour's time has been
bad for gastric digestion After a reed 01
hay there is comparatively little danger.
From the excessive salivary addition to
the hay, and the comparatively small
=mai of its albuminoils, these are rap
idly dissolved out and digested, and the
farther addition of water is often rather
favorable than otherwise in hasentin7 its
progress into the bowels, where the di•
gestion of its starch, sugar, fit and other
respiratory organs may be completed

and the number may be the result or
long lease of quiet to the old IVe
heard yesterday of a farmer who enelc•eil
his rail oorn pen with a tight hoard loncr..
and with the help of two terriers killed
six hundred rats. A pair in a year will
destroy ten bushels of corn, and vet.
strangely enough, kw farmers follow up
systematically, and all the time, plans for
their extermination. When they become
unendurable, they venture to try a little
poison, but are in mortal terror, lest it
stops the cakle of a pullet, or give a quietus
to as old dog that ought to have been kill
ed long ago, or lest all the rats take a fan
cy to get into the well. The true remedy
is to give a rat no rest until he is dead or
leaves the premises. Ile is a wary fellow
and don't like to be hunted. The death
of owe by a dog or poison, will often
stampede the whole colony. Cats are vast
ly better than dogs to keep them down,
and arsenic is the best
. poison we hay,:
tried for their destruction. In baiting
with arsenic, most persons use too much
poison.

great sufferer for many years. until I heard of and consult
ed a rhysician, who est; I had the acrufulous humor and
it 1 would allow him to doctor me he would cure me. I
did so, mad he commenced healing up my cored and suc
ceeded in effecting en external cure, but in a short time
the dinette.) appeared again in R worse firm than ever, as
cancer°, humor upon my inngs. throat end bend. I suf
fered the most terrible pain, and there seemed to be no
remedy, and my friends thought I must soon die, when my
attention woe called, while reading a newspaper, to a
VEGETINE testimonial of Mrs. Waterhouse. xo.
Athens Street, Sonth Boston. and I, formerly residing in
South Boston and being personallv acquainted with her
and knowing her former (cede health, I concluded I
would try the Vegetine. Attar I had taken a few bottles
it seemed to fore the sore, out of my system. I had run
ning seres in my ears which for a time were very painful
but I continued to take the Yogetine until I had taken
about' 3 battles. my health improving all the time from
the commeaeement of the first I eu tle, and the sores to heal.
I commenced taking the Vegetine in 1872, and continued
its constant use for months. At the present time My
ilealth Is better than it ever hay been since I was a child.
The Vegetine is what helped me. and I most cordially rec
ommend it to all sufferer,, especially my friends. I had
been a sufferer for over 30 years, and until 1 used the Veg

The following is an extract from
a description of Vineland, publish
ed in the _Nov York nibune, by the
well known Agriculturist, Solon
Robinson :
All of the farmers were of the
ell-to-do" sort, and some of them,
who have turned their attention to
fruits and market gardening, have
grown rich. The soil is loam, vary
ing from sandy to clayey, and sur
face gently undulating, intersected
with small streams and occasional
wet meadows, in which deposits of
peat or muck are stored, sufficient
to fertilize the whole upland surface,
after it has been exhausted of its
natural fertility.
it is certainly one of the most exten
sive tracts, in an almost level position,
and suitable condition for pleasant farm
ing, that we know of this side of the
Western prairies. TV found some of
the oldest farms apparently aS. profitably
productive as when first cleared of
. forest
fifty or a hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discov
er the cause of this continued fertil
ity. The whole country is a marine
deposit, and all through the soil we
found evidences of calcareous sub
stances, generally in the form of in
durated calcareous marl, showing
many distinct forms of ancient
shells, of the tertiary formation ;
and this marly substance is scattered all
through the soil, in a very comminuted
form, and in the exact condition most
easily assimilated by such plants as the
farmer desires to cultivate.
