Word to Farmers about Selling their
Produce.

Farmers are often blamed for not selling
their produce rs soon as it is ready tor
market. And it must be confessed that
those who do 50, taking one year with an
other, do quite as well, all things con.
sldcred, as those who hold on in hopes OF
getting higher prices. They obtain their
money soon after harvest, and are enabled
TO use it to advantage. Dealers in grain
can obtain money much more easily than
farmers, and can consequently hold the
gain longer.
While, therefore, we think farmers often
dobetter by selling early, there is still room
Tor the exercise Of judgment. One reason
why it is usually best to sell early is, that
most farmers are disposed to hold on to
their grain as long as possible, and when
The time comes that they must sell, there
are more sellers than buyers, and the price
declines.
1t is curious fact that people generally
are more inclined to sell when prices are
low than when they are high. When wool
was 10 cents b., il was more difficult to
induce farmers To sell than when it was 40
cents per 10. Last fall, with red wheat at
S2.2j in the interior of Michigan, farmers
AesI'ated longer in making up their minds

Prevention of Disease in Cattle.

We may safely assert, that in large
portion Of the country, our neat stock are
far less prone to diseases, plaques, and ma
lienant disorders, than the cattle OF any
part of Europe, although our climates
from North to South, are subject to great
er eXtremities Of heat and cold, than the
European continent Yet, we do have
diseases of many characters and tenden-
cies, sometimes difficult to understand, but
most Of them have proved manageable
with proper forethought and fair treat
ment On the whole our American cat
tie, may, in general, be called healthy,
and liable to comparatively few diseases
1t is an old and true adage, that :" AN
ounce of prevention is better than pound
Of cure" So then, he who properly cares
for his stock from their birth onward, will
be visited with few disoders III his herd,
and these with due precautiOn, and timely
looking after, i'll most cases, may be safely
controlled. Good shelter, proper food, p1re
lcater and timely care, will, in most in
stances, keep herds in good health-eX-
traordinaries excepted. We have known
farmers, with large herds, who scarce ever
others equally well situated, so far as the
opportunity of keeping and caring for
them was concerned, who were always
afflicted with sickly cattle. They died,
annually, With murrain, or some other
malady, solely arising from poverty, eX.
posure, bad food, or neglect and the
wonder Of this latter class continually
was" what allied their cattle?"
The habits of all domestic animals are
exceedingly simple. Their natural tastes
are So their necessary food is so; and
their anatomical and internal organs are
such as to dispose of their food and drink
to the due nourishment of their systems,
without much, if any, artificial help SO,
then, that Their food be regular and sutii.
Gent nature may safely be left to its own
course, in the great majority of cases, with
a safe result. No farmer should ever
bring a creature on to his place having a
contagious disease, or permit one to re.
main there, either in the company, or
within the sympathies of other cattle.
We once bought fine blooded COW, dis
eased with a sort of scrofula, or consump-
tion-some might call it an incipient muir
TdIu-uuu VIC lOSt, llOu OllJ Htl, bul ~
least half a dozen other cows and heifers,
by the contagion, before we got rid of it..
That experiment taught us lesson. We
never since bought diseased animal if we
knew it. Better knock the thing in the
head at once, than to expose the other
stock on the farm to contagion of any
sort. Accidents have sometimes occurred,
as under almost all circumstances they
will occur and not always to be provided
against and so will, sometimes, diseases, as
milk fever, and other ailments incident TO
their condition, which must be properly
looked after; but with due precaution
they seldom occur under proper manage
ment Of the herd. We do not say that all
such diseases or ailments can be cured, for
with the best and ablest treatment they
sometimes prove fatal; yet with due care
they may in majority of cases, be re-

On. the other. hand, when prices are low,
We should not beinA hurry ID sell Sound
wheat il N artic he that wll l&tp, and it is
an articlevhatis Mwaysred ehtda and it is
absolutely certain that il cannot long re.
main at price much below the actual cost
of production. We cannot hole. out hopes
to such FARMERS asgrpW only ten,ortyelve
bushels Of wheat per acre, that they will
obtain prices sufficient to compensate them
for their labor, The country must be in Il
very unsatisfactory condition when such is
the case; but We do firmly believe that
there is no reason to doubt that farmer
who raises good crops is safe in calculat-
ing that sooner or later he will be able to
obtain such price for his wheat as viii
enable him to make a fair profit.
There is one fact in this connection that
should not be overlooked. In a cool, wet,
late season in England,}the wheat crop is
always below the average And they have
had such a season the present year. On
Ine utncT Hduu IL Is very uouDtlul II tHt
wheat crop of the United States is as large
as was anticipated We feel tolerably GER
tain, therefore, that before another harvest
wheat will bring price sufficiently high
to afford the wheat grower a good living
profit. He should be satisfied with this.
He should b n no hurry to take less.
The question arises; Whatprice should
we obtain for wheat to afford us fair
profit? At the present price of nipple
ments, machines, and other necessary arti-
Giles, not forgetting labor and taxes, we
shall not obtain eXtravagant profits if we
sell good, sound red or amber winter
wheat-Say in Michigan-for $3.50 per
bushel, A farmer who raises anything
less than twenty bushels per acre will not
get very rich, even if he obtains, in our
present currency, S175 for red wheat, and
$500 for choice white wheat. When we
can get these figures in ordinary seasons,
it is not safe to hold on too long; but when
Immediately after harvest, the price is
much below these figures, those who can
afford to hold their wheat run very little
risk of loss in doing so.-AmericaD Agri
