A pretty good story is told of a
fellow at the Fair week before last
who was making himself ridiculous
by an evident intention of under
rating and finding fault with every
thing he saw. Passing the cattle
and calves he beloved out: "Call
them nice cattle2 Why, they amt
nothin'to what we've got at home.
My father has bigger calf than any
of these" W don't doubt it," re-
marked a bystander, sand the nois-
lest and silliest one." AS he sud-
denly left to look at the sheep, some
one sung out: "Didn't your father
raise q very likely jackass, too"

That does not determine whether it
is right or wrong but only shows that
the majority are opposed to it, under

thought it right, while those vino
voted against it had various reasons
for so doing not worthy of mention.

Will Farming Pay?

WHY not, and even in Eastern Maine:
We heard farmer complaining the other
day because flour is so high, and many
other articles which he has neces sarily to
purchase. But when we asked him what
he would sell us twenty bushels of pota-
toes for. I've said 5000. Upon further in
quiry he s;eit he raised 100 bushels last
year. Ii he has hay, or oats, or barley.o
ANYTHING else that is used as food for man
or beast, corresponding prices will be
asked and obtained. If such prices can
be obtained why will not farming pay in
this County. 1t is true that the great him
drance is want of sufficient amount OF
dressing for the land; but this objection
can be overcome in great measure, be-
cause not one farmer in fifty secures as
much as he can do readily if lie will set at
work in good earnest to have as big a
manure pile in the fall and spring as he
possibly can. There are various ways to
make the pile grow larger. week by week.
until wanted tor use. We need not sug-
gest the numberlcss ways to do this, for
ii will occur to any one who goes to work
earnestly to do il. But we may add that
cartinc muck. or sea-weed. or leaves from
the forest or limited amount of saw-dust,
and BY making conpast heaps, and by gath
ering all the ashes. pickle from beef bar
rels, will do something in this line. Also
keep all the stock you can, and make your
moving Enclosures wider and richer. year
by year. Use such artificial fertilizers as
suits YOUR Land. Some of these had bet
ter be mixed in the manure heap, and 9th
ers applied differently. Each farmer can
tell better about this than we can. Drain
all wet land, by all means. 1t pays. aud
10 matter how good the drains.
We have often thought that the towns ~
ing on union river, and near the lands
where numbering is done present. the best
facilities for farming Of any towns in the
county. Every thing a farmer can raise
will sell at his door and for a higher price
than the same article will bring in Els
worth or Bangor. Hay. oats, beans, pota-
toes &c. are wanted for the lumbermen
close at hand. Any quantity of manure
can be had for the hauling from ~. ne camps.
If a man vii. work and will stick to this
one business. ten years will make him an in
g, dependent farmer. We know Of no oppor-
tunity so good as this to succeed in farm
| ing Who will try it:
