The RICHEST MISr.-The manure
applied to the soil Of England amounts
TO three hundred millions Of dollars |;
being more than the value OF its whole
foreign commerce. and vet the grateful
soil Yields back with interest all that is
lavished upon il. And so il would be
here. il we would only trust the soil with
any portion Of our capital. But tbs
We rare y do. A farmer who has made
any money spends it not iuhis business,
but in some other occupation. Tie buys
more land when he ought to buy more
manure. or he puts his money in some
joint stock company TO convert sun.
shine into moonshine. Rely upon it,
our richest mine is the barn yard. and
whatever temptation stock or shares
may offer, the best investment for
farmer is live stock. and plough shares.
