Profitable EARNING.

Ask flrmcr WHAT is the chief object
for which he labors p and he will answer
profit: This t,cn being tic aim of the
millions engaged in The culture of the SOIL it
becomes III inquiry Of scme momemt, What
is profitable farming? We are often tod
thar thorough cultivation, "high farming as
it is called, will rot pay. Lard is so cheap
and labor so dear that tiic farmer cannot
afford that superior ti!acc 50 often recon-
mcndcd in the columns OF agricultural Jour-
nails: in short, that good farming is unprof-
table. To prove tic i;,lIacy Of this opinion
VIC lave but TO compare the results of perfect
tillage with those Of tic half cullurc system,
or, rather. ~GH Of system. The fruits Of
the latter may be seen in tatcrdcmalion fen
ccs, oycrgrown with weeds and biars: Wig
orous growth oi dock, tlistlcs, etc, and in
dwarled crops, barely worth the lahcr Of har-
vestin". These arc evils, but they are FIR
from being the only or the greatest ones
which result from such management.
Anarrc. with haif tillagc, will yield but Il
small return: consequently it becomes ne
ccssarvto 30 90 over Il vast amount Of surface
to obtain = small crop. The farmer q beg
pardon, the ia0orcr.) has 50 much work to do
and is SO busy that improvements upon his
farm arc not to be thought OF. repairs cannot
be attended to, weeds, like al other unwc!-
come personages, will ever irtrude them
selves where least wanted and rob the half
starved plants, but he has no time to extir-
pate them, and thus rccklcSsly giving the
chances to his adverse fate, it is 10 wonder
that he loses the battle and cxccratcs farm
ING rs most wretrhcd occupation. TO him
il is such. His soil becomes exhausted Of
its most valuable constituents for he is ever
borrowing from it, and never finds time 10
return anything. The SOIL like all other
creditors, after losing confidence, lends grud-
glngly. the farmer "runs behind I;lnd," and
gees West in search of land that .won't
wear out" This may seem dark picture,
an unnecessarily caustic dclncation, vet it
does not falls fur below the truth. Many arc
the eases parallel to, and even worse than the
above, which haze come under NY obscrya-
ton
hold it rs true saying, and one capable
of demonstration, that whatever will pay for
doing al all will pay for doing well. It's
true that man's land may be unsuitcd 10
the growth OF corn, wheat, tobacco, Or some
other crop; in this case it will OF course be
bootlcss to attempt the culture of that par
ticular culture; yet what he car cultivate he
can cultivate well. 1t will certainly require
more labor to grow so bushels Of corn upon
an acre than it will to grow :;5, vet it will
cost less 70 Till one acre well than tic two

poorly; then in the end the weil-'l''Ge acre
will be left in fur the better condition for tu-
turc crops.
This running over Il great many acres to
obtain that amount of grain which should be
the product of few, is one Of tie greatest
evils of the present system of farming
Farmers wish to get rich too fast; are ambi-
tious to become the possessors of too many
broad acres, ard in the thirst for gain take Il
course Numerically opposite to the one most
conducive to the realization of the desires.
The Improvement Of the soil is an item far
too generally overlooked by the farmer, when
balancing up accounts and figuring up profit
and loss Though it is passed by as unwor-
thy of thought, it is nevertheless Il con-
sideration Of vital Importance, and one which
should receive the most careful attention.
Profitable farming requires some thing
more than the production Of one large crop
OF the realization of great gains for one
year; it demands a providence for the future,
foresight which looks beyond the present
season. That course of cropping, which,
though it fills our granaries and Golfers for
three or four years, yet in the end exhaust
and ruins our soil, is far from being prof.
table system, indeed. it is the very poorest
which can be practised, and will ruin him
who follows it as etiectually rs i lawsuit.
The improvement Of the soil should be
the chief object; for when once attained,
prosperity and plenty will Immediately re-
suit from it. This should enter into all Jour
calculations, and from the test by which to
Try all plans and systems, and by which to
decide upon their adoption or rejection. Nor
should the mind be ncglectcd.-it needs cul-
tiva:on as well as the soil, and time spent in
its improvements will he well occupied,
though looked upon by many as a matter of
small import, it is none the less of great mo-
ment, and, withaI, will pay, and that too
abundantly, in more ways than one.
Many are the acquisitions of profitable far
ming, but their enumeration would call for
more space than can be given in this article
however, if acceptable, | will cndcavor to
present my views upon few of them at
some future time.

In this dark world Of care,
Whose gentle snilc approves thee
Yield not to dark despair.
One rose whose fragrant blossom,
Blooms but for thee alone,
One fond, confdins bosom
Whose love is all thine own
One gentle star to guide thee,
And bless thee on thy way,
That cen when storms bctidc tl:c",

When sorrow hath distrcSt;
One breast when thou art weary.
