Hints to Farmers.

The following practical hints to
Farmers, are extracted from an ad.
dress delivered in 1918, before the
Massachusetts Agricultural Society,
by JOSIAH QUINCY.
"Great profits in agriculture can
result only from great improvements
of the soil.
Great improvements Of the soil can
result only from unremitting industry.
The chief study Of every farmer should
be what is useful, and zhat IS useless &c,
pense, in relation to his art. The dis.
elimination between these is the mas.
ter key of the farmers prosperity.
The first should be incurred with a
freedom little shor: of profusion. The
last should be Stunned, as the sailoI
shuns the rocks, where are seen the
wreck Of the hopes Of preceding mari
ners.
In this art, and in this art alone, 81
lie the liberal hand that maketh rich.'

Liberality in providing utensils, is
the saving Of both time and labor.
The more perfect his instruments, the
more profitable are they.
So also is it with his working cattle
and his stock. The most perfect in
in their kinds are ever the most profit
able.
LiberaIity, in good barns and warm
shelters, is the sourc. Of health,
strength and comfort to animals; eau.
ses them to thrive on less food, and se-
cures from damage all sorts Of crops.
Liberality also, in the provision Of
food for domestic animals, is the source
Of flesh, muscle and manure.
Liberali'y to the earth, is seed, cul-
ture and compost, in The source Of its
bounty.
Thus it is, in agriculture, as 10 every
part of creation, wise and paternal
Providence has inse parateiy connec-
ted our duty with our happiness.
In cultivating the earth, the condi.
ton ofman's success is his industry
upon it.
In raising domestic animals, the
condition Of his success is, kindness
and benevolence to them.
In making the productiveness of the
earth depend upon the diligence and
wisdom Of the culivator, the Univer-
sal Father has inseparately connected
the fertility Of his creation with the
strongest intellectual inducements,
and the highest moral motives.
In putting the brutal world under
bis dominion, he has placed the hap
piness of which their nature is suscep.
tibie, under the strong guarantee Of
mans interest.
Instead, therefore, Of repining al
his lot, let the cultivator of the ground
consider his, as among the highest
and happiest Of all human destinies,
since in relation to the earth he is the
instrument Of Heavens bounty; and
in relation ID the inferior orders of|
creation, the almoner of Providence"
