THE ROAD TO POOR FARMING

THE ROAD TO POOR FARMING.
l. Invest all your capital in land,
and run in debt for more.
2. Hire money to stock your farm.
3. Have no faith in your own bu-
siness, and always wanting to sell
out.
4. Buy rean COWS, spawned hor-
ses, poor oxen, and cheap tools.
5. Feed poor hay, and mouldy
cornstalks exclusively, in order to
keep your stock tame; fiery cattle
are terribly hard on old rickety wag-
ons and plows.
6. Use the oil of hickory freely
whenever your oxen need strength;
1t is cheaper than hay or meal, and
keeps the hair lively, and pounds out
all the grubs.
7. Select such calves for stock as
the butchers wont have-beauties of
runts, thin In the hams. and pot bel
lied, but be sure to keep them thin
by scanty herbage; animals are safest
to breed from that haven't strength
10 herd.
7. Be cautious about manufactur-
ing manure; it makes the fields look
black and mournful about planting
time; besides it is a deal of work to
haul it.
8. Never waste time by setting
fruit and shade trees; fruit and leaves
rotting around a place make it un-
healthy.

Would fly to my side and would there take

And she plaYfully seated herself by his side.

'and the charm
Would work SO that not even modesty's
cheek
Would be able to keep from my neck your

She smiled. and she laid her fair arm round

"Yet once more would blow, and the mu-

Would bring me third time an exquisite

You would lay your fair cheek to this brown

And your lips stealing past it would give me

For only consider how silly 'twould be.
To sit there and whistle for what you might

honored, and unsung," save by those
who were colleagued with him il the
great rebellion.
We turned away from the spot
where once the chivalry Of the South
were wont to concoct treason, and
soon stood again in the city of the
dead-!he Soldiers Cemetery" in
which rests the remains Of thousands
OF our kindred, who have died that
the Union might live. They are
gone, but not forgotten. Though
NO expensive shaft is reared over
their remains, their sacrifices, suffer
ings and death, have rendered their
memories to every lover of his coun-
try, and to countless millions unborn,
who sill treasure up their examples.
AS we turned our steps homeward,
we could but indulge in the mental
pictures Of the future granduer of the
American Republic. Slavery dead,
the incubus which has prevented the
prosperity of the Southern States,
has been removed, and soon her de
solsted fields will be ''merry with the
plough-man's song" and the hard
listed Northern mechanic-the Yam
kee, will develope riches hitherto
unexplored.
1t will take time to heal the wounds,
North and South; but while we can
forgive, we can never forget the past
four years of war. To the friends
of this regiment, or more particular
ly of company G, 1 would say we
have much sickness, yet none dan
gerously i'll. At present near one
fourth of the company and even the
regiment, have the Ague. But we
hope that the change of weather that
is already taking place will make a
change in their health.
