Small EarmS--Well Titled.

The Farmers Companion. In the fol-
lowing article. teaches the same moral as
the interesting sketch of ..Grandfa theirs
old Farm which we recently published,
inculcated:
You have 100 acres of clear land, so
of which you keep as pasture and for
meadow. Make up your mind to work
only 20 acres; the other % being pu:
down TO clover, or clover and timothy,
ss you best can. You have manure enough
in and about your farm for six acres
This year. haul that on TO your land.
plough it and put in corn; with little
ashes. and if you can get it, Stacked lime
or plaster TO every hill. Plough twice
as deep usual; and drag twice long.
with long toothed drag, till the land is
like garden. If you have got thirty
five bushels of corn to the acre before,
we can warrant you now 70 or so; for you
cultivate and hoe the corn twice much
likewise. You double your crop a,
very little increased cost. Having no
more manure, you must depend on deeper
ploughing and better dragging for the 9TH
er 10 acres for this year; not forgetting
to SOW little more seed than usual. if
1t is oats or barley. In the fall. sow
wheat where the corn was. with the same
care; and next spring manure the next
six acres for corn. Yes. but you can ma
nure 10 or IL acres; for you have had 25
more acres for hay. or oat straw cut green
for fodder. and can keep % more cows
through the winter; and knowing the val
ue of the manure--that ii is important 10
you as the very soil itself--you will take
much better care OF it.
Thus. every two or three years your
land will get dressing Of manure, and
every year you will have different crop
on it. Every year it will improve ard
you will grow rich with about half your
work. Blu! after while sow few acres
of land with timothy. and break up as
much of grass. You will get double the
crop of hay on the new piece. In one
word Of all men in the world small farm
er should work small piece of land; to
make manure. keep it dry. and he will
not be small farmer long. We have
tried it and we know it. For the rest,

BLIsHED EVERY THURSDAY MORNING.
The Ohio organ, of the temperance reform. (Cincinnati, [Ohio]) 1853-1854, 1853-07-22
The People.

When Martin Van Buren, said "the
sober second thought Of the people is
never wrong, but always Efficient" he
paid deserved compliment to the
great fountain Of all power, and ut
uttered a sentiment, the truth Of which
time strengthens and confirms. The
calm and deliberate action Of the pub.
lie is always marked by truth, justice
and propriety, and the consequences
of the same are invariably productive
of governments wisely administrated,
and laws admirably adopted to their
wants. nas aeH, Is.1 al asa6 li..
Too long did mere politicians rule
the land. For series of years their
bane(ul influence was felt in every de-
Partment Of governmental the Sc
lection of State and National officers
in the passage Of laws, and even in
the organization of Courts of Justice.
But such state Of affairs could not
last The school-master went forth
on his mission. Institutions Of learn
ing were established, and the PEOPLE
became educated. Thus qualified to,
think and act for themselves, they
looked at the evils from which they
suffered, and, being themselves the
source Of all power, resolved to apply
the requisite remedies. In many in-
stances they have done SO, and in all,
with wisdom, a discrimination and q
justice, which abundantly prove the
second sober thought to be right and
efficient. F,,..e 81 "a ~ ,,.o|'

soon be reported as on hand. Let,
say ten per cent Of this amount be for
warded at once to the Executive Com
mhtee at Columbus, to be expended
for general purposes, and the balance
raised in each county be expended
iadiciously within the county, in dis!
seminating information, paying ex.
penses Of lecturers, etc., and the bread
thus cast upon the waters will be
gathered after very few days, In
these counties where no response to
the call could be Immediately had,
send an efficient agent to call upon the
faithful and wake them up personally;
appoint mass meetings in each county,
and send Jewett, or Yates, or Forbes,
or Dow, or Plants, or Foote, or Olds,
or one Of a hundred others who might
be mentioned, to address the people,
and victory is as certain as that the
second Tuesday Of October will dawn
upon this State. If we do not work
we ought to be defeated, for a victory
that should cost us nothing would be
valueless. The small amounts pledged
at Columbus for the respective coun-
ties, should be included in this grand
levy. Again, there are a number Of
counties where no special effort is
needed to secure Maine Law men in
the next Legislature there are others
where extra efforts will be req ired |;
the former can raise money and the
latter can not. In such cases, let q
larger per centage be sent to the,
State Committee to be expended in the
waste places in extra efforts. Thus
we can help each other, and by SO
doing will help ourselves. What
matter is it, for instance, If Meigs
county does elect the right sort Of !
man; if Athens county sends a friend
'f.the liquor traffic Let that charity, |
hen, that "begins at home" difFuse
tself abroad, and the giver as well as
he receiver will be blessed. .H |

Our Organ.


We dislike to be under the neces-
sity of even occasionally urging our
friends and patrons to be more active
in calling upon their neighbers to
subscribe for our paper. We wish it
to be understood and remembered that,
the Editor wants more readers, and
that this is his motive in referring to
this subject. The Publishers interest
will be enhanced, and no man is more
deserving cf reward than Caleb Clark
for his unwonted devotion to the cause
of temperance, but this is a minor
consideration. We must have the
light in the dark places, and we can
not do SO, unless the friends open the
way. ert na 1s.s'N .so

campaign, or what is better, for q
year, and we will return its value with
compound interest. .mag ltaa

that the Metropolitan Hall has been
engaged for the 9Th, 7th, 9th and 9th

hope our numerous readers will over
