at once, by every person Of the least

"A drunkard who had run through

heart,s,rings, and language is inadequ-

He could not speak-lle could mol look

ideas. A farmer never objects 10 re-
ceive political information from news
papers; lie is quite willing TO learn the
State Of the markets from newspapers;
and as wiling TO gain religious notions
from reading, and historical knowledge,
and all sorts of information except that
which relates TO his business. He will
90 over and hear a neiglbor tell how he
prepares his land, how he selects and
puts in his seed; how he deals with his
grounds in the spring, in harvest, and
after harvest; but If that ncighbor should
write it all down carefully and put it
into paper, lis all poison! it's book
farming!
Those who are prejudiced against
book farming, are either good farmers,
misinform of The design Of agricultural
papers, or poor farmers, who only treat
this subject as they do all others, with
blundering ignorance. First, of the
good farmers: There are in every
conntry, many industrious, hard work
ing men, who know that they cannot
afford to risk anything upon wild ex-
periments. They have a growing fami-
ly to support, taxes to pay; lands per-
haps, on which purchase money is due.
They suppose an agricultural paper to
be stuffed full Of wild fancies. expert
rnents, big stories made up by men who
know of no farming except parlorfdrm-
ing. They would doubtless, be surprised
to learn that ninety parts in hundred
of the contents a( agricultural papers,
are written by practical farmers; that
the editors business is not TO foist alb
surb stories upon credulous readers, but
to sift stories, to scrulinize accounts, to
obtain whatever has been proved 10 be
fact, and reject all that is suspected to
be mere fanciful theory. Such papers
are designed 10 prevent imposition; TO
search ont from, practical men whatever
they have found out, and TO publish il
for the benefit Of their children all over
tho Union.
The other class who rail at book
farming, ought 10 be excused, for they
do not treat book farming any worse
than they do their own farming; indeed
not half so bad. They ate the paper
with their tongue, but cruelty abuse their
ground, for twelve months in The year,
with both hands. ! will draw The por.
nait of genuine an,i.book farmer Of
this last sort. This picture is drawn
for the West; perhaps it needs no great
alteration to apply as well to the East.
He ploughs three inches deep, lest he
should turn up the pizen that, in bis csli-
nation, lies below; he sows two bushels
of wheat 10 the acre, and reaps ten; so
that it takes a fifth ofhis crop 10 seed his
