SrccEsrr1 FARHIxG-The following exam ples cf sacce<sfal farming, which have come un- der ny own observation, may encourage men who have doubts thrown over their minds in re- gard to the practicability of making the bus- ness pEoitabis.s s,g ssss,
 Some sixty years ago a man came to Wes- tern New York from New England or New Jersey. am not certain which, his axe. and little loose change being about all the property he had. He worked for several years for differ ent farmers, and then bought land for himself He has now farm of 500 acres or more, has given two sons each good farm, and pays tax es on f,ro hundred housand dolLays acorh of personal property. He has never had any busi- ness bzt farming. @
 know another man whose father left him a farm of POO acres, something over thirty years age, with some incumbrances on 1t in the shape of legaeies to other heirs, who has now over 400 acres of land, and .taty Aousand dollars at interest. He has also done no business but farming.
 Several men have worked for me. who. though they had nothing when they came, are now well of. A young Scotchman worked for me over he began, but who has good farm of 200 acres, well stocked, and he is free from debt He knew how to do the mechanical part Of farming thoroughly, but knew nothing about speculation' l could name others who have acquired fortunes wholly by farming.
 A farmer of small means should be very eco nomical and still very liberal. lie should De econom;cal in dress for himself and family, and in his dwelling and furniture he should be lib, eraI in feeding his stock, maturing his land and in supplying labor to work his land. l have seen many farmers who were always poor by trying to do too much work for the number of laborers employed, whereas if they had hired double the labor, it would have paid abundant ly. This is a very common mistake.-Boston
