Specialties in Farming
'There are generally two or more sides
to most questions , ttoncerning the most.
common affairs of ;life. If there were
not, the course of dully experience would
run smoothly enough. There would in
deed be no question as to the proper
thing to do or the proper way to do it.—
When it comes to the more important
matters of life, as the economy of this or
-That dispoOt ion of time or labor or energy
the question often becomes one of great
practical importance to the individual at
least, upon whom the responsibility of a
decision rests. Tits is the case, it seems
to us, in laying out the work of the
farm. Shalt - it be concentrated or diffu
sive ?
It seems to us that we, as a body i f
farmers are too scaticring, that is, we aim
at doing too many things and spread our
energies over too much ground, instead
of concentrating our thoughts, our skill
and our means upon some special line of
effort, some particular crop or some lead
ing branch of farming. Go round through
our quiet and beautiful rural districts,
and study the character and inclinations
of the farming population, and you will
find in a vast number of instances that
the farmer wants to own the next farm.—
There ie a blinkering for more land rath
er than a desire to cultivate the home
farm well.and bring it to the highest state
of productiveness. But this, although
we regard it as in some respects, an un—
fortunate trait in the New England char
acter, is not exactly the fault to which we
allude. ' You will find generally that the
fariner makes his calculations to do a lit
tle of anything. He will have a little
patch of corn, an acre or two of \potatoeS
a few roots, perhaps two or three cows
and a borse,.all of which is very well, in
its way, btu son will discover nii central
`,
leading idea—no one crop, no one i ranch
of farming that seems to excite the mind
and thought to special activity, n one
product on which to rely for the money
income of the farm, and so you will find
at the close of the year.that both ends will
'hardly meet, or if they do, tbt re will be
nothing to :pare. .
Now we are not inclined to advocate
the cultivation of one erop.or another, to
the esclusion of all others, but to insist
upon the adoption of some line of effort
as a specialty, whether it be the culture
of fruit, the culture of corn or grass, the
breeding of stock, the keeping of sheep
or poultry. We would leave the particu
lar object of pursuit to ba governed by
circumstances, such as the location and
character of the fax m. We would study
its special fitness for one thing or another
Some farms are admirably adapted to the
raising of fruit. Some have a warm
southern . espo:nire, with a light warm
soil, adapted to the grape, where vine
yards would return a profitably yield.—
Some have facilities for the raising of
cranberries, and it is a pity not to take
advantage of them. Some are remarka
bly well adapted to the raising of poultry
retired and free from disturbance. Some
ars? specially suited to grass, and the rais
ing of stock wound seem to be a leading
pursuit, and soon. The idra is to study
and take advantage of the peculiar cap
acities of each farm, and of ten farms
taken at random, scarcely any two would
present the same characteristics.
Let us present one or two illustrations.
We know a practical cultivator who has
bout three-quarters of an acre of Con
ord grapes. He raises poultry, too, but
rapes and small fruit are his special bob
y. Last year from this vineyard of less
han an acre, which he tended himerlf,he
very nearly eighteen hundred dollars
, orth of grapes. But if be had frittered
way his time on forty different crops,and
}ow and then run into town with a doz—
•n 'eggs, or a peck of turnips, or a bushel
if peas, or a few ears of green corn, or a
string of onions, or a box of butter, or a
few other little lots of garden truck, is it
to be supposed that be would have real—
ized seventeen or eighteen hundred dol
lars on less than an, acre of vineyards?
Again we know a man in the Connec
ticut Valley who bought his place, built
a large tobacco shed and made some oth
--r improvements, and paid for the whole
by the single crop of tobacco the first
Bat he gave his attention to it,
Ind didn't try to cultivate mnch corn or
natty potatoes.
Again we have a friend in Plymouth
aunty, who began to reclaim one of the
ardest looking bush swamps that we ev
•' saw, and set out cranberries, now four
iws ago. The cost .per acre of cutting
bushes, grubbing up the roots, paring
A l i- enlace and sanding and setting oat
vines exceeded four hundred dollars.
ivt veer wag the third of the experiment,
et believe, and the first crop yielded be
wen seven and eight hundred dollars
income. This year the plantatation
iruised far better than last, but wo are
-
informed of the result.
nese are only a few of the instances.
ere are very many others which we
not.present here.

Use of Farm Capital
3ne
of the great • draw-backs to pro--
Ef
css on farms is the apparent reluctance
- most farmers to employ what capital
ey can command upon improving and
lveloping the resources of the farm it•
air. We know very well that many far-
E ers have but a small amount to em•
t !oy at all,but those who have seem more
tclined to use it in outside ventures, to
b.t it into some railroad stock or to loan
v on interest.ratber than to put it into the
d rm itself. It seems to show a distrust
their ability to make it earn a fair
trofit. It is a well settled fact that no
usiness can be economically carried on
:ithout capital. The manufacturer usu
lly puts his earnings into his business,
o develop and increase his capacity to
mike money, and so does the merchant.
-1 a general rule. Why should it not be
0 on the farm ? A market gardener
'fear Boston, Mo., W. D. Plnlbrick. says
:pat some of the best gardens within
i•ven•milee of this city employ a capital
t 700 per acre. The expenditure for
I mpure and for lahni often amounts to
.500 per acre, and they g , t their pay in

'ruffs, and garden truck.
