Self-seeking nnd seu-eoddling and .avoidnnce of all avoidable pains and duties ought to make us discentented, and they do. Part of our time and strength we have need to devote to labors whereof the pay comes not ir. cash, nor in ordinary pleasures or ad vantages, but in satisfactions which are spiritual and benefit our souls. To have no anxieties, to be subject t( no annoyances, to have no unwelcome duties and no occasion for self-denial, is not by any means to be in a good ase. Anyone finding himself in such a predicament is bound to go out ani. .hunt up labors nnd troubles merely t1 make life worth living. Every one o us is a wheel with cogs in it, meant tt fit in with other cogged wheels anr turn more or less laboriously and ef fectively in the great human machine. Scribner's. Madame firanda Aphorlama. Mrne. Snrnh Grand lately eonaenter j o talk on the art of happiness. Soma of her aphorisms are worth keeping-; There are minor pleasures w hoso effect ia aerurniilative, and which make us a happy life. Even in choosing- to he miserable we are happy, since there ia happiness in erery act of choice. There ia a great deal of difference between a copy and an imitation.

NEW CENTURY HINTS. Why Farmers Should Patronise Ira pro. -l Method and Make Their CaJlla Hrspectcd. A new century has begun, and it is evident that agriculture will make rapid utridee in the next few years. It is evident that it is soon to take its rightful position in the world. Kvery farmer can do something to ward helping on this forward move ment by improving his methods and his surroundings and educating him self along the advance linea. Let them shake off that absurd jealousy nnd distrust of each other that has ao long prevailed and been kept alive by crafty politicians. Get rid of that foolishness and unite in advancing their interests along all lines. The farmer should hold a position In the world equal with men of any other vocation and profession, and he will when he makes himself their equal in education and skill. He should have a strong voice in shaping legislation, and he will when he ceases to dele gate to lawyers the power to legis late for him. Kvery farmer should consider these matters seriously and do all he can to advance himself and his fellow farmers along all the lines mentioned. Let them insist that the taxes they pay for education shall be devoted to educating their chil dren to the farm instead of away from it, and that this education shall be practical and worth to the child all it costs. Let them insist, that the improvement of the country is as es sential as the improvement of cities, nnd that all appropriations of the public money shall not be for grnnite nnd marble buildings, but that a por tion of them shall be for the farmers' benefit.

We are a long; way yet from hirinp pood roads in every community, such as are common in Europe, but such as we have we do not know how to pre serve. The splendid roadways of Europe- could not exist without a series of laws, varying in the different coun tries, but in all essentials the came, by which the width of all wagon tires is regulated according to the weight carried. In France every wagon and market cart is a miniature roadmaker. The width of the tires there varies from three to ten inches, most of the four-wheeled vehicles having six-inch rim. and a rear axle several inches longer than the front one to prevent improper tracking, in Germany, where the main roads are models of smooth ness, every heavily loaded wagon must have at least a four-inch tire, and even the pleasure carriages are required to be shod with tires wider than those ao often seen in America on the heaviest trucks. Similar laws exist in Austria, Switzerland and throughout the Hrit ish islea, and In muny citiea on the Asiatic and African continents. It is probable that any attempt to make and enforce similar laws in this country would meet with determined opposi tion. Naturally a destructive race, Americans icorn anything like saving, and prefer to build a road thrice over to enrinpr for them properly. Common sense would dictate that wide tires should be used, law or no law. but they never will be unless the intelligent rich ridere set the fashion, and then others will follow. Until then our good roads j will be destroyed almost as faat as made. Golden Days. il t C STAY ON THE FARM. There la No Place on Bartk Where a In Can EnJ Mori- 1'rce dom S)r Comfort. The question f farmers moving tc town will admit of considerable dis cussion, but wa take the side in fn- j vor of staging on the farms. There i is no place on earth that man may enjoy more freedom, more fresh air, j and better "grub," than right out on J a quarter section of laud, located at convenient diatnnce from good mar kets. What i there more enjoyable than looking among buncnes of young swine, selecting? the ones you think nearer your ideal, or watching calves and colts playing in the lots, frisking alxut and enjoying the sunlight? What is nicer than to see a hen with a flock of young chicks all of one color, scratching for bugs, etc., each one busy nnd seeming to enjoy it self to a very high degree? What farm er does not love to see crops grow ing, from the time they first peep above the ground until the final stage of maturity ia reached? People of ripe, old age may take more enjoy ment in living in town, where every thing is more handy, where they have their mail more regularly, nnd where they are not burdened with the cares of a farmer's life; but even this class might derive more real pleasure on the farm where there is more quiet than in town, where there is always more or less (generally more) noise, and a general hustle and bustle. An other jHint in favor of living on the farm is the rearing of a family of children. Notice, if you will, the strong probabilities of city boys getting into bad company, and forming such hab its ns their parents would blush to have them become acquainted" with. While the lads of the country do not come in contact with so many of these things, yet they find out enough sometimes to do them a great nmount of harm. We would not try to ele Tat6 ourselves) above our friends in town, but we do believe children are more apt to form habits through evil associations in the alleys and back streets of a tow-n life than is prob able in connection with a farm life. We do not consider ourselves author ity on this subject, hut simply write our thoughts in connection therewith, hoping it may cause some one to pause before leaving the farm in an effort to better his condition in the world. The farmer feeds the world. Just think! All the multitudes of earth live from the labor of the so called "hayseed," and why should we think ouT&elvea above such work? So I would ssy. stay on the farm. AV. W. Young, in Prairie Farmer. SEED WHEAT KERNELS. I'pon Their Oarrfnl Selection I)r penile, In a Great Measure at I.eaat, the Resnlilnsj Crop. Grent possibilities lie in the devel opment of seed wheat. Constant le lection of the largest kernels will have a constant tendency to improve the seed and the resulting crop, j Rome experiments were carried on in France to determine to what extent 1 the crop could be improved by such a selection. Though the process was carried on for only three years, the results were apparent. The experi ment was tried in two directions, al-: ways selecting the largest seeds for one crop and the smallest seeds for nnother. At the end of three years the yield on the plats planted with the large seeds was very marked over the plats that had been planted with the small seeds. Also the large wheat (Trains hnd more vigor and developed much more rapidly than did the oth ers, and the erop matured earlier. Tlie same experimenter carried on nt the same time a parallel experi ment. He selected for one lot the grains that developed soonest on the heads, and for nnother lot selected the (Trains that matured latest on the heads. In three years he hml two crops growing side by fide, one of them maturing six days ahead of the other. FARM TOOL CARRIER. What an Insjenloa.

Bisulphide of carbon ia aure preventive of their ruvaget. About one ounce of it is sure death to all that would lie in a hundred pounda of grain and other heeds, and vials of that size Just thruat down into the surface and un corked will go to the bottom of the bin, as its fumes are heavier than air. Aa it it explosive, take cure not to carry any light near it. It it also aure death to other insect and to squirrels and rata. I)o not ute more than the abova amount. It can bt purchased at almost any drug a tore. Rural World. I For Brain Loss of mental energy, lack of thought power, failing memory or inability to con centrate the mind on the work in hand, there is nothing so good as Dr. Miles' Nervine.
