,gar the farmer.
Does Farming Pay ?
We often hear it said there is no longer
any money in farming. In the course of
oar experience we hare heard similar state
roeots concerning other occupations. A prin
ter, adhering in these days to the old fash
ioned hand-press, might male the same
complaint, and with as much justice as the
present farmer, who carries on operations in
the old style, or a carpenter who makes his
moldings by hand and planes boards. The
improvements in ' machinery of all kiuds
have so quickened the demand for labor in
every branch of industry, that the farmer
as well as the mechanic must abandon hand
labor and use machinery, or his profits must
be eaten up in expenses. Hay may be made
and put in the barn by machinery now
at the rate of one dollar per acre. By band
the cost would be four dollars. The old style
crop is half a ton per acre ; now three times
that is a fair crop. The difference is just
that between eight dollars per ton and sixty
six cents. The wide-awake farmer has this
difference for his profit, eight dollars being
about the market price for hay in many
places. The same is true of most other
crops, graiu and roots especially. In feed
ing stock and making and using manure,
equally large differences result. So'of breed
ing stock ; the old-style rooter, and the mod
ern Berkshire, are not more unlike than are
their several values when made into pork.
The same of the ill fed, rough-coated native
heifer or steer, and the sleek, well fed grade
Jerjey or Ayrshire. The same is true of
many farming communities in respect to
roads, fences, and schools. . All these must
be fitted up with moilern improvements, or
farming as a business must suffer. We
know whereof we speak, when we emphat
ically deny that farming is an unprofitable
business. The capital invested will, if riiiht
ly used, return in this branch of industry
as good an interest a any other, besides
having the invaluable merit of indestructi
bility. A work -shop or factory may burn
up, but land remains not oniy intact, bat
from uncontrollable circumstances is ever
advancing in value. So the labor of tie
farmer is sure of some remuneration if prop
erly directed. Poor farms and poor farmers
are the ones whose crops fail through drouth
or excessive wet. On a properly conducted5
farm these may damage the crop, but will
never destroy it. The divine piomise of
seed-time and harvest is for the especial
benefit of the farmer ; but it rests with him
self in a great measure whether the fulfil
ment to him individually, or whether his
more enterprising neighbor secures it. As
rienlturist.
Apples. Pick before fully ripe, pare all
over, slice from each side to the core the
thinner the slices the (juieker they will dry,
and the higher price they will bring. All
pared and sliced fruits should be dried in
the shade and out of the wind, to preserve
a light color, on which very much depend
the price.
