Dealers, shippers, transporters, exporters aim linK)iteis, increase the valne of ra.w or manufactured materials by diking then from the licea where they are len wanted to those where they arc mora wanted. In brief, all the above classes nro occupied in producing articles of valuo from those of no intrinsic value, as grain from mold of the sull; or in incrcasiugthe valueof articles by change of form or change of location. And all are equally pursuing a praiseworthy or- i-UHition, and they and their work are alike honorable, if they are equally hnnestund In. luirious. All tlictnlk.orthoughtsharbored, Umt the occupation of a merchant, 01 innimfjclnre, or Importer, being higher or inoiu honorable or even more desirable than Hint of u farmer, are fallacious and mislead ihg Tlio glare and glamour arising from the fact Hint now-and then a merchant, not one in a thousand, secures a large wealth by a favorable combination of circumstances and by exlensivo operations, should not b)ind us to (be fact that, In proportion to the numbcrsengaged, a hundred times more farmers thnn merchants advance to inde pendeuco If not to great wealth. Ninety. five out of every hundred who enter upon a mercantile life fail, or do not rise above the coiulUinnv of drudging employees, with n bare subsistence not one whit better than is enjoyed by tlio lowest farm laborer. While on the contrary few who earnestly follow agricultural pursuits fail to secure, at least eomfortable food and clothing and lodging, for themselves and families. , The f.ilse mitloiis, above Indicated, are a great bar to the best success in.fdrinlngand kindred pursuits. We all expect the manu facturer and merchant to put into practlco business habits and ideas; to study into the uesti mod ns and appliances, to bo wideawake to what others are doing In the same line. But somehow, whllo not always publicly admitted or allowed, the farmer and his family harbor the idea, and unfortunately act upon it, that their occupation is of a liner rrado, a sort of Inferior manual labor employment, endured as a necessity rather than from choice a machine life, affording little opportunity for exercising thought, skill, enterprise, study, improvement, or for the eminent success that comes to other pursuits. As a rule, they aro secretly grati fied If a son has an opening in a merchant's establishment, or a daughter is affianced to the scion of a family in msreantile pursuits. This falso feeling Is a drag upon the cnerg'cs, the self confidence, tho cheerfulness, the ambition, the- study,, the progress, that ehpuld bo manifested in tho life and work .nf every cultivator of tho soil, whether of a few still unpaid for acres, or of the larger farm. At the beginning ot this new year, let us start with a just appreciation of our occupa tion, a determination to make the best of it, to deserve tho highest success, which is the next best thing to actually achieving it, even if we fall to do so. ia our posuion 01 larm manuiactureraana merchants, it is well to tike account ofstock; to 6gure up and put down on paper, in some form however simple, a catalogue of every thing we have, smoll and large, with its present value, Indeed every Implement, every animal, produce and cash on hand nndditeatn Vis, the farm itself, each field nnd the value invested in growing winter crops upon it, etc. Ok the other hand, sot down every liability, and strike n balance. One great effort of the coming twelve months will bo to increase the slock on liand, and decrease tho liabilities. If not done hither to, begin with January 1 to note down, each day, every transaction, tho work of the day, what is sold or bought, of or to whom, and its prico, whether paid for or not, etc. Tlio writer of this kept such a journal, on a furm of 238 nere, from tho age of 14 years on waril. At fust it was only written on fools nip sheets. A rough plot of the fields was made and each one numbered, and the! amount of plowing und sowing, sued, man ure, etc., expended on each" and every? fielJl wcro written down at night. All tKo larger animals were named. Tho sheep, swine, and ioultry, too numerous to name, were classified for reference, In brier, o'verythlng on the farm wasiotcd down on pspcr, and everything done or transpiring was daily entered with the pen. It lurnlshed euter tajutneut, and the sheets became valuable for reference in many cases. A simple style -of farm book-keeping grew out of it, which was of decided utility; but we leave that for the present. Wo would be exceedingly pleased to know that every farm reader of this, or some one in his family, would start such a coinpleto memorandum, beginning January 1, 1SS1. We know Its usefulness Sy experience, and what good It leads to. Let one of the first plans for the year be to secure more knowledge about our occupation. Certainly we each kuow some things that others do not, and every other man knows some tilings that we Ao not. "Writing and talking with others, the talks at farmer's club meetings and conventionswhat others thiuk and any, os given in books and ropers, nre all sources of new ideas. Let the head help the hand by better thinking anil bet ter plans. One can not talk with an in telligent neighbor, or read a farm book, or farm paper, without getting some new idea, or suggestion, that vfill help his own think ing and planning.
