Horace Greeley's Barn.

The philosopher of the New York
Tribune is farmer as well as an ed
itor. His ideas about barns and
sheltering stock may be gathered
from the following description OF his
barn from his own pen:
My barn is fair success. L plac.
ed it on the shelf of my hill, nearest
to the upper (east) side of my place,
because barnyard is a manufactur-
er of fertilizers from materials OF
less weight, and it is easier to draw
these down hill than up. built its
walls wholly of stones gathered or
blasted from the adjacent slope, to
the extent Of four or five thousand
tons, and laid in box with a thin
mortar of Clittle) lime and (much)
sand, filling all the interstices and
binding the whole in solid mass, till
my walls are nearly one solid rock,
while the roof is of Vermont slate.
| drive into three stories-a base
ment for manures, stable for ami
mails and story above this for hay,
while the grain is pitched into the
lott or "scaffold'' above, from whose
floor the roof rises steep to a. height
of sixteen or eighteen feet. There
should have been more windows fol
light and air but my barn is conve
nient, impervious to frost, and ] am
confident that cattle are wintered in
it at fourth less cost than wheI

rural economy is more wasteful thar
the habitual exposure of our animals
to pelting, chilling storms, and to in,
tense cold. Building with concrete
is still novelty, and was far more
so ten years ago, when 1 built my
barn. l could now build better anG
cheaper, but l am glad that need
not. calculate that this barn will
be abidingly useful long after l shall
have been utterly forgotten; and

The Farmers WOrkShip.

No reasonable farmer will disput,
the importance of having a workshop
upon his premises, and especially
those who have boys to bring up
Boys will be boys, andif opportunity
is not given for full employment o
their time, either with work or spor
at home, they will seek diversion
abroad, which will not usually y result
profitably. A farmer gives his expe
rience and opinion upon the matter
in the subjoined sensible talk:
How many farmers do we find thai
have not the Ingenuity to repair 8
rake, or other small farm implement.
Were they brought up on a farm.
Yes. Well, then, why is it ? Some
may say they are of that unfortunate
class of mortaIs that are no. gifted
with their share of ingenuity. This
is q great mistake. fyou will take
the trouble to inquire of them what
they spent their time at when young,
they will tell you farming. Was
their father farmeri Yes, the best
in the neighborhood, they may say.
Well, what did he employ himself and
boys at on rainy days 80, nothing;
when it rained too hard to work, we
generally spent our time at the vii
lage, in the stores and tavern. You
know that boys waDtrest sometimes. -
Very true, but is there no other en-
joyment for boys than at the tavern
and stores Had the father had a
workshop, with a selected lot of
tools, would not those boys have had
some job for rainy day, such as a
little cart, sleigh, wagon, or boat to
repair |? There are very few boys
who do not have such things to make.
Thus by having a small workshop,
boys soon acquire taste to handle |
teols, and tinker up many little play
.hings of their own. I

will be of great service to them in

the Orientals the true system of
agriculture, and was two years in
finding out that they wouldn't learn
it. There are more men and families
