The following paper was read before the Somerset county Farmer's Institute by Win. II. Miller, Esq., cf Qu'emahoning township. Reading Matter fjf the Farmers' Fam ily, with a View to Secure Life's Higher Possibilities and Attainments: It is not the intention of your humble writer to tread exclusively on unbeaten ground by giving to this institute some thing entirely new, but simply to call your attention to the great importance of securing for the farmer's home circle such reading matter as wiil best secure life's highest possibilities and attainments. When we have attained life's highest possibilities, we have in an important sense immortalized ourselves here on earth. I will only touch on pleasant pos sibilities ard the essential characteristics in attaining them. ' What is life? One writer says, "life is what me make it; another, more ap propriately, says, " life depends upon what we have to make it with." Yet bow little we think of the great amount of material God lias given each one of j us, with which to attain life's highest! possibilities. Mind was the first endow ment, and that made man the crowning work of creation. Added to intellect, he received revelation and evidence that tbe natural world was made for his abode. Its mysteries and Larmotiies, which phi losophers and scientists attempt to fath omand in many cases have succeeded n revealing tbe secret are to each of us a part of the means by which we may reach high possibilities. But do we al ways find farmers, as a clas", availing themselves of these privileges and mak ing the moet of the n? It is source of pleasure to know that there is hardly a live fanner, far or near, who does iiot take some weekly paper, and in many localities, besides a local paper he takes a weekly aicultural paper. Papers are so cheap now-a-duys that he can sub scribe for a number of farm journals and one or two standaid weekly papers. We believe this is the rule among the pro gressive farmers of to-Jay, and it is not a rare thing to find in country homes all the agricultural and news sheets that can be at all useful. Since agricaitaral jour nals are eo numerous, much discrimina tion muwt be iwed so as to secure the very bet for the pnrjx in hand. By this we mean that, not only should the matter be whole. me and clean, but tbe make up of the journal should be attractive. The iiualiSoatioua speak volumes for a paper.because they will then contain the information we are seeking. If agriculture is so noble a calling and it has greater attractions to-day than ever before we say, let ns place before our families such agricultural papers as breathe an air of attractiveness from every page. Such features will instil into the growing minds good taste, and will teach tbetu to appreciate the pure and beautiful in all things, and should at the same time extend the influence, and cre ate a love for tbe occupation of farming. Let the boys and girls fiel that they are engaged in as safe and honorable a call ing as can be found, and we will lead thousands into happy and useful lives who otherwise might have been discour aged and wrecked by engaging in oncer tain and questionable pursuits. Let us try to build op and beautify our homes. It is the sacred refusreof our lives. The memories of its loves, its joys and its sorrow s will cling to us in all our wander ings. Notwithstanding most of our agri cultural journals have departments for all branchers of the family, yet it seems to me we should not expect them to cover the ground to oor entire satisfac tion. The minister is the better preacher if be knows something of the methods of men engaged in other vocations ; the physician feels it bis duty to have a knowledge of humanity at large, further than that strictly demanded by the re quirements of bis profession. So, like wise, the farmer will be a better citizen, a broader and more useful man, and fully as cucceseful as a former, If he endeavors to learn what be can of the live, bustling world around hint. While tbis fund of nformation may be strengthened by the i perusal of tbe weekly newspapers, and the "family matter" of the agricultural journals, yet these are not enough to afford intellectual food'foi the farmer' family year after year. The world is afflicted with starved intellects. We would not discourage newspaper reading, by any means, but he vast amount of matter in newspapers originates in ordi nary minds. It is gotten op to satisfy a common demand rather than to elevate. We hear it argued tbat one of the mis fortunes of country people is tbat they are largely deprived of the influence which comes from coming in contact with su perior minds. We believe this to be true in a measure, and for this very reason we bold Farmer's Institutes, whereby we are brought in contact with men of great er knowledge and experience, who stim ulate us with fresh interests. In this way there is a refinement acquired wkitb greatly affects toe Baturw of home life ia the conntry. " Ia there nothing FEBRUARY 19, 1890, that can be added to this?" you ask. We answer, " yes . " We can avail our selves of higher influences by the writ ings of learned men, and very fortunate ly for us these sotirces are not remote nor few. The only difficulty may be to dis criminate aa I have said between tbe good and the undesirable. It ia obvious that while the farmer should set before his family a reasonable amount of news and agricultural infor mation together with kindred literature he should not withhold some literature in addition to this the product of stand ard writers these will give the young minds a stimulus not afforded by any other means. There are a number of magazines published which supply this need verv well. These furnish in com prehensive form the productions of the most brilliant minds from all quarters of the globe. In this age when books are multiplied again and again, one cannot expect to keep himself even moderately well informed from this source, hence our leading magazines have a sphere that is properly there own, and they are becoming more popular every year. When one reads one or more of these, he will not need to devote so much time to books. Yet everyone should culti vate a taste for good books. Again, in looking around and seeing that we are somewhat necessarily deprived of the op portunity for mental culture in our rural homes, from the absence of fine libraries, and higher courses of instruction, yet we find, by a close inquiry, notwithstanding these adverse conditions, that the boys andgirls, from their homes on the farm, come to fill a large percentage of places of trust and responsibility. The causes of their success is largely due to tbe habits of industry which are learned in farm life. And then, again,' they have learn ed to value every opportunity, and make the most of it. The same habits of in dustry, economy aud perseverance, which make the successful farmer, also make the successful business or professional man. It seems to me to be an absolute necessity to enlarge tbe opportunities for menUl culture, as much as we possibly can. j.very borne should contain at least a slnall library of useful and in structive books; and the habit of read ing and thinking should be formed as early as possible in our children. Some one has said that our libraries are our modern colleges. This statement is very true, and the youth who has spent his leisure hours at home, in the reading and study of standard works, will have ac quired a fund of useful information which could hardly be supplied by any four years of college work. Besides, he has acquired it when the faculties are active and retentive. lie also has the advantage of entering the active pursuits of life with a well-disciplined mind. Let farmers' children, then, be prepared to take advantage of the many opportuni ties which this great country affords this age. Higher and higher our intellectual Aims should be every year. While J be lieve that our ancestors did tbe best they could in the age in which they lived, I sometimes fear we are not aiming as far above their achievements as our age will permit. Let us ever hear this in mind, that the foundations for h igh pumibilities should be Laid in every home, and no where can these hallowed influences b more carefully guarded than in the coun try. Again. I say, every farmer should find it a pleasant task to supply his read ing table with the best literature, such as will meet the varied wants of the family, from nursery rhymes to the all absorbing question, "Who am I, and whither am I going?" All questions of importance address themselves to the farmers at this time with just as imperative a demand for their attention as men of any other pro fession ; and it is the duty of every par ent to make an effort, at least, to form tbe character of bis child in such a way that when they come to think and act for themselves they will not need to be gin anew, but continue to rise from prob abilities to possibilities, in the pursuits of agriculture. With the present depres sion of tbe times, many of you may feel that there is bat little in the future ; yet this is tbe time when we should do our most valiant work. Were I to prophesy, I would say to the farmer, and his wife, that the darkest days are almost past, for the time has come when the strong arm of labor must yield to the quiet work of intellect. Invention has made farming a pleasure, and changed the far mer's mode of living, converting the house of never-ending toil into one of mingled auinsement, labor, and study, giving to the farmer and his family, in their rural homes, the right and privi lege to revel amid mysteries and facts, to investigate for himself, and to rise to the highest possibilities in the inventive, literary, scientific, or religious world. While fortunes may be given to us, re member that possibilities come by per sonal efforts. So, then, in conclusion, permit me to say to you, as farmers, let us furnish our families with the best lit erature or reading mat'er suited to their varied wants and needs, with a view to secure for them Iifs highest possibilities and attainments.

It is related of Bishop P. that he was once taken to task by a few of his de nominational brethren on a charge of exhibiting a conceit of himself at vari ance with the spirit of humility.
