The Ideal Farmer.

Evesy farmer has, or at least
should have, : desire to permanent
~ improve and beautify his estate,
1t tSs sssms slime he is getting from
1t the means Of supporting his
family. 1t should be his highest
ambition to have the fslds in bet
ter condition after every harvest,
both in respect to fertility and
beauty. Year by year the home
should be made moro attractive.
the scenery Of its'surroundings more
picturesqu Season by season
beauty should spring out Of deform-
ity and 1.-THE vast places" be made
to "bloosom as the rose" ss,a
Though Aomething Of this kind is
doubtless ID the mind of almost. ev-
cry farmer who, owns the land which
he tills, still b decade goes by and
the farm is no more productive and
no more beautiful than it was at
the commencement of these ten
years Of labor; possibly it does not
look Is we'll or produce as we'll Is it
did at first. Work enough has
been done. perhaps too much, for
the well-boing Of the farmer. He
has labo red with scarcely holiday
for eight months in tho year, "from
the rising Of the sun even to the
gowing down thereof. But the
farm, taken Is . whole, is no near
er his ideal Of . fne place than it
was before all this labor Was ex-
pended upon it. It is no more east
~ titled, no more productive, no
more attractive. It may be, in
truth, that the trees have become
more deformed, the gulliss deeper
worn. the fences further out of line.
Now, what has stood in the way
Of permanently improving this
place !? Obviously there has been
too much hard work and too little
head work. In other words, there
has been no well-matured plan fol
bringing this estate into the con.
1ition tho owner would have it,

properly applied. It not onlp pre-

duccs greatly to the healthiness of
buildings, whether of wood Or stone.
Our buildings, and fences, when
not painted, should be supplied
once or twice every year with a
good coat of whitewash, which
should be prepared in the following
way: 49,
Take clean water tight barrel,

it half Z bushel Of lime. Slack it
by pouring water on it, boiling hot,
and in sufficient quantity to cover
it Eve inches deep, stir it briskly
till thoroughly Stacked. When the
slackiug has been thoroughly Of
fected, dissolve it in water and add
two pounds Of sulphate Of Zinc and
one Of common salt: these will cause
the wash to harden, and prevent its
cracking, which gives an unse emily
appearance to the work. 1t de-

About the Farm.

Farming is profession, not to
say science. If any one doubts this
statement, let him leave his city
home-for no one bred in the coun.
try will doubt it-and cultivate
even garden Of half an acre for
the summer. He will then find
that knowledge is essential to the
right use Of the spade as of the pen,
and that there is as great differ
ence between the scientific farmer
of Flanders, where literally not n
weed is to be seen, and that of
many Of our farmers, tho wealth Of
whose soil is about equally divided
between fruits and weeds, us be.
tween tho trade of q modern com-
mercial city and tho barter OF a
back woods settlement. 1t is true
that agriculture has beon the last
to receive tho impetus of modern
science. 1t is true that many ag
riculturists arc content TO go on in
the ways OF their fathers, because
experiments are costly. But 1t is
also true that they arc unable to
compete with those who under>
stand tho use of now Instruments,
methods and fertilizers. Agricul.
ture is also becoming in tho coun-
try popular recreation. Many n
gentleman il content to spend on
his country seat, money which he
makes in the counting.room. Tho
practical farmer is thus able to get
the benefit OF experiments without
Faying for them, This change in
agriculture, which has converted ii
from drudgery to an art, has croa-
ted q demand for corresponding lit
orature, Fifty years ago stable
agricultural periodical did not ex.
ist on tho American continent"
Now every considerable district
has ono, while almost every weekly |
newspaper. secular or religious, has
its agricultural department; and
j. will not bo long before something
OF q library will be part Of the fur
uiture of every well ordered farm.
