WHAT CONSTITUTES A GOOD ra,,1ER,

- '"e L'sposer OF human events should
permit this world to stand tho usand
years longer, the time will surely come
when e"efy man who tilIs the earth will be-
compelled to he good farmer or siarve
to "euth. This is a strong expression, but
as true as it is strong. Old fogyism may
continue to dcnounce those who labor TO inn.
prove the agriculture Of the South but the
time Will come when their posterity will see
their stupid folly, and be forced to improve
the soil which their ancestors butclered.-
The day has already come with England.
France, Germany and Ireland, where agri-
culturists are compelled from true necessity
to study their profession, and improve their
systems of farming economy, to an extent
limited only by their power to do so. If
tLey were to pursue the course that plan.
ters Of the South are now pursuing. in less
than twenty years, they would either starve
to death, or be forced to leave their own.
their native land"
But the question arises, what is "a good
farmer? There is much diversity of opin-
ion on this question. Sometimes the men
who run over the most land per hand, and
drag out of the soil the most money, re-
gardless of the wear and tear of land, and
team and force, are called good farmers, yea,
the best farmers. But that is not true ad-
init it not. To do so would be equivalent
to admitting that the doctor who made the
most money, regardless of the lives he de-
stroyed, was the best doctor. The one
would be about as true as the other-both
are utterly false.
A good farmer according to the best
and most intelligent agriculturist Of the
South, is the man who improves his land,
and the appearance of his place, improves
his stock and takes care of hss force. And
| think this definition of the term is COR
rect.
No man, however intelligent on other
subjects, no matter how much money he
may be making for the time.being, should
be considered good farmer, in the strict.
est sense of that term, who grossly neglects
the improvement of his soil and force and
stock. No man who cultivates the bills
and permits his fields 10 wash into yawn-
ing gullies. and turns them out for his chill
dren to reclaim, at the cost of much labor
and expense, or leave their old homes, or
starve, is to any extent, whatever, a good
farmer. No man who denonnces agricui-
tural improvement, and agricultural jour-
nails, totes corn IN one end of his sack,
and rock in the other end to balance il
because his daddy done, it can possibly
be good farmer
