Success in Farming
A correspondent of the X, //.
Farmer thinks it nr4ortunate that so
many complaints of ill-success in farming
are continually published, and points out
that the extent to which it is conducted
on borrowed capital, is in most cases the
secret of the diffiulty. There is much
sense in the following extract :
Readers of agricultural papers do not
often find successful farmers relating their
experience, and giving such details of the
management of their business as would
encourage others to persevere. And yet
these are just the men we all want to hear
from. The croakers are too numerous and
altogether too fond of blaming the busi
ness for their non succ,:ss. The trouble is
in the men ; not in the business. When
I learn that only one farm in twenty-five
is paid for when bought, the wonder to me,
is not that so many fail, but that so many
succeed. When Richard Roe buys John
Doe's farm for $7,500, pays $3,000 down,
and gives a mortgage for $4,500 at S per
cent. expecting to make a living for him
self and family, pay Mr. Doe $3O a month
interest, and have a net 3 or 4 per cent.
at the end of the year on $7,500, it brings
no surprise to me that Mr. Roe finds such
farming don't pay. What does the man
own in fact ? Just $3,000. That figure
represents his capital. There is no kind
of business to be found to day, other than
farming, in which $3,000 can be made
to yield any kind of a iving to a family
without drawing on the principle. Any
gain in interest is not to be thought of. *
* * Those farmers who had so little
foresight as to buy more land than they
could handle, are simply doing what num
bers of men in other callings have done,
and will do, for all time, giving way to
men who know how to handle money.
That's the rub. Men undertake too much
on too little capital, and inevitably fail.
It. is not for the general good that farmers
of this class should parade their misfor
tunes at every opportunity, misleading
public opinion on a matter that lies at the
very foundation of our national prosperity.
Farming does pay, and pays well on the
capital actually invested, with such gener
al intelligent management as would be
necessary in any other business. There
is no other business which offers as
good security fur the investment; there
is no other business which brings more
contentment and lez's wearying anxiety of
mind. The man who owns his farm and
has three or four per cent. at the end of
a year on the paid up capital, after sup.
porting his family is actually in better
condition than nine tenths of the men in
any other calling.
Depth of Sowing Wheat.
Farmers who are wide awake and given
to investigation don't sow so much wheat
per acre as they formerly did, and they
don't sow it so deep. The great, heavy
harrows of ten or twenty years ago are not
now employed by them in covering
seed, and the drill, which can be depend
ed on better, is becoming universally pop
ular. In broadcast sowing, after the
ground is thoroughly prepared, the
Thomas smoothing harrow will cover the
seed deep enough. A Wisconsin writer
gives the result of an experiment in plant
ing at different depths, on the surface,
one.fourth inch, one-half inch, three
fourth inch, and so on to several inches.
That on the surface lay two weeks before
sprouting ; that one fourth to 3 inches
deep came up in four or five days ; and so
on, getting later as the depth increased.
The last to come up was planted three and
a half inches deep, and was fourteen days
in reaching the surface. None planted
deeper ever reached the surface. At the
end of six weeks that planted one fourth
to one-half inch deep stood way ahead of
the rest.—Record and Farmer.
Eat Onions.
Few people dream of the many virtues
of onions, and those few are enthusiastic
for the beneficent bulb, and believe it a
panacea for every ill. Lung and liver
complaints are certainly benefitted, often
cured, by a free consumption of onions
either cooked or raw. Colds yield to them
like magic. Don't be afraid of them—
especially if you are married. Taken at
night all offense will be wanting by morn
ing, and the good effects will amply com
pensate for the trifling annoyance. Taken
regularly they greatly promote the health
of the lungs and the digestive organs. Au
extract made by boiling down the juice of
onions to a syrup, and taken as a medicine,
answers the purpose very well, but fried,
roasted or boiled onions are better.
Onions are a very cheap medicine, within
everybody's reach, and they are not by
any means as '•bad to take" as the costly
nostrums a neglect of their use will neces
sitate.
THE New York Tribune says: "It is
fully to keep old sheep. They should be
turned off to the butcher while they are
in their prime. It does not take half so
much to fatten them then. When they
get old and thin, in order to put them in
condition to slaughter, the whole super.
structure must be rebuilt. Four sets of
lambs are all a ewe can bear; this will
bring her to five years, and this is an age
when, with little extra care, she will round
up to fine carcass. Exceptions may be
made when the breed is scarce, and the
blood is more valuable than anything else."
CONCRETE for foundations is formed of
five parts of gravel and sand to one part
of fresh burned lime, ground to powder
without slaking and measured dry. Well
turn and shovel together, with sufficient
water to black the lime into the state of
very thick mortar. Chips and small
pieces of stone may be added will) advan
tage.

Be Ready
When friends visit us unexpectedly, we
atakc no apology for the work at which
they may find us; but if they have notified
us that on a certain day they will be with
us, we arrange our work so as to be ready
to receive and entertain them. Not to do
this would be an insult, and they might
justly drop our friendship. If they have
not fixed a day, but have only intimated
that soon they will come, we make the
same effort to be at leisure, and put off
some work that might not be finished at
their coming. We all know how un
pleasant it is to have company on wash
day, or house-cleaning, and how different
the welcome we extend when everything
is done up.
There's a guest coming to each one of
us, who has sent us word, "Be ye also
ready, f;)r in such an hour as ye think not
the Sian of man cometh." To some he
will send another messenger that will ber
come very tedious perhaps. Ile may
linger mouths or even years about our
lic,we, and during his stay lie will be
confined to the house, it may be to the
chamber of death, and have to commune
daily with tl►e grim monster. We will
long for his departure, but he will not
leave until we follow He insist on hav
ing us go with him to the nearest ceme
tery, never to return home again. Others
are taken by surprise, and while the house
is all in confusion a swift message comes
to meet the Master. Without auy prepa
ration they must lie down never to rise
again. They would fain make some prepa
ration, but it is too late ; in a few hours
they will be in eternity, with the work of
a life-time undone. They thought his
coming so uncertain any where inside of
eighty years, and they expected to be
notified more particularly as to the time.
A year or two seemed long enough while
in health to prepare for such a guest, but
now they feel that a whole life time should
have been spent in preparing for such a
wonderful change. They had forgotten
while in health that the coming of the Son
of man would be unlike an earthly visitor,
who would leave them again shortly; but
now they remember he has come to take
them out of the world, and though unpre
pared, they must go. In the must of life,
with many plans unfinished, and not even
time fur thought of repentance toward
God, the arrow is sped and the victim
drops. 'Tis done, and there is no more
place for repentance, but "a fearful look
ing for judgment and fiery indignation."
The ready Christian is not taken by sur
prise, but is ever ready to step into the
chariot and ascend the hill of God. "0
death, where is thy sting ? 0 grave where
is thy victory ?" is his last shout.—.l/rs.
S. E. .llorris in W. C. Advocate.
Only Christians.
John Wesley once was troubled in re
gard to the disposition of the various sects,
and the chances of each in reference to
future happiness or punishment. A dream
one night transported him in its uncertain
wanderings to the gates of hell.
"Are there any Roman Catholics here?"
asked the thoughtful Wesley.
"Yes," was the reply.
"Any Presbyterians ?"
"Yes," was again the answer.
"Any Congregationalists ?"
"Yes."
"Any Methodists," by way of a clicher,
asked the pious Wesley.
"Yes," was answered to his great indig-
nation.
In the mystic way of dreams, a sudden
transition, and he stood at the gates of
heaven. Improving his opportunity, he
again inquired :
"Are there any Roman Catholics here ? '
"No," was replied.
"Any Presbyterians ?"
"No."
"Any Congregationalists ?"
"No."
"Any Methodists ?"
"No."
"Well then," he asked, lost in wonder,
"who are they inside ?"
"Christians."' was the jubilant answer.
Made for Immortality.
It cannot be that earth is man's only
abiding place. It cannot be that our life
is a bubble, cast off by the ocean of eterni
ty to float a moment upon its waves and
then sink into darkness and nothingness.
Else why is it. that the high and glorious
aspirations which leap like angels from the
temple of our hearts are ever wandering
abroad unsatisfied ? Why is it that the
rainbow and the cloud come over us with a
beauty that is not of earth, and then pass.
off and leave us to muse upon their faded
lovlincss ? Why is that stars, which hold
their festivals around the midnight throne,
are set above the grasp of our limited
faculties—forever mocking us with their
unapproachable glory ? And why is it that
bright forms of human beauty are pre
sented to our view and then taken from us,
leaving the thousand currents of our af
fection to flow back in an Alpine torrent
upon our hearts ? We are born for a
far higher destiny than that of earth.
There is a realm where the rainbow never
fades, where the stars will be spread out
before us like islands that slumber on the
ocean, and where the beautiful things
which here pass before us like visions will
stay in our presence forever.— Whittier.
WORKING TOGETHER, FOR G 00D.—
God says that "all things shall work
together for good to them that love Him,"
and our experience has repeatedly illus
trated the statement. It may not appear
in this month, nor in the next; possibly
not in this world; but it shill appear.
God does not administer His government
in the interest of your pocket book, but in
the interest of your character. Ile is
smoothing and straightening you for heav
enly companionships and uses. He does
not want his redeemed ones to hobble
about in eternity incurable cripples or
hunchbacks. He wants them without
spot, or wrinkles, or any such thing. If
the perfecting process seems severe, keep
your eye on God, your faith in His word,
and your back bared to the lash. Noth
, ing shall by any means harm you.
