FARMING.


We hear, every day. the remark that
farming dues not pay. Why does is MT
pay! ALI that the farmer raises brings a
high price, and the price sf labor is cheap.
Some will answer that free negroes will
not work. Very wei, we understand thas.
And we understand why a uaan. who hires
a number OF haads and Is too lazy to atte nj
to them. does not make money. But, we
not urfrequently meet with a gentleman
whose hands do work, and even he cum
plAus that farming isa poor business We
confess, we canaU. understand that. T0bac-
CO, cora, wheat, oats, vegetables. fruits,
beet. bacon. chickens, ducks. egss--every-
thing that iarnrr raises, or ought TO raise,
is high. land cheap. labor cheap. aud IN the
Cases we are speaking 0t, admitted 10 be
efficient, aud yet there is no profit in be
cuItlvation oi the soil. That Is a straage
state of affairs. IL would seem To us that
there would be more money in farming now
than ever belsre. Will some Of our rea
ders give Us all explanation #
In the meantime, We venture 10 make a
lew rraarks which may be taken for what
they are wurtk.
Let farmer realize his condition fally.
Let hIm reflect that inasmuca as he does moi
own the negroes he works. he cannot reap
any profit from their increase, as in the
days ui slavery. Tie must not have, there
iute, mere about his house than he can
protita1ly employ. Let him bear in mind
tuu, that he is not worth bali as muc b capi
tai as when he owned the slaves on hi,
