DO II a to invest in gOod stOck

Does it pay to invest in good stock
when it seems to cost a comparative
exhorbitant price, is a question often
occurring to farmers; and in the ma
jOrity of cases, is decided in the mega
tive. This hardness is just what
makes it pay the enterprising farmer,
as they thereby have a more exclusive
control of the kind of stock they i'm
port. We the other day learned how
Mr.. w. II. Hawley's venture in Ches-
terwhite hogs has paid. He pur-
chased a pair of this breed some two
years since for $50, since which he has
sold $3.50 worth, and has left what he
could easily realize S15Ofor; or a total
of about 800 on an investment Of $50
for stock which costs less to keep than
the ordinary kind, and found a ready
market at all times. Besides a hand
some profit Mr.. Hawley has earned
the thanks Of his fellow farmers for his
enterprise in this matter. 1t will pay

OF THE IMPORTANCE
OF
Evergreen Wind Brakes

On our Western Prairies, every enterprising far
mer Is fully aware. The following nom the GdTden-
eTs' Monthly Is 90 the point:
1--WE are often ast0nished at the great difference
between shelter and exposure. In our own neigh
bOrhood, as we write, Saliva, Splendes, HeliOtrope,
Geraniums, &c, are in full bloom in gardens shell
tered by trees on the northwest, while nOta hundred
yards from the one IN our minds eye, the same flow
ers are black, and have been for some weeks back;
and in the middle of winter aplace surrounded with
evergreen belts viii be more ike q spring scenethan
one of winter"
All who have had experience also know how much
greater the chances OF success are with IRAAS-
PLANTED NURSERY GROWN EYERGREENS
than with Forest EVergreens, commonly designated
Native" The latter usually fail and must, IN or
der 20 grow at all, have the closest attention ana all
circumstances favorable; while those grown In a
seed bed. and NOE TWICE TRdNSPLAN1ED,
need no more care than any other tree. The ola
addage-Ebery Nan b his TTGdS"-in no case was
ever more applicable than in GROWING EVER
REENS until they are established.
Our prices are so low that no Prairie Farmer can
afford TO get along with less than one hundred or
more. They viii, IN 5 to 8 years. make as ehectnal 9
wind brake as a stone wall, and add hundreds OF
dollars TO the selling value Of any farm.

GENERAL

~"-@W --W@@- ~@8@@@N
We take pleasure in announcing to the public that
we have secured the entire stock Of this Justly cele-
brated Tomato. 1t originated In the garden of an
Amateur, who, after growing it for a number of
years in connection with all the leading sorts. be
came convinced that it was far superior 70 any 9TH
er, and that it should be widely disseminated; and
for this purpose it was put into our hands. In con-
sideFatiOn Ofthe many disappointment experienced
in the Introduction of new varieties, we have given
1t a thorough trial of two years; and it has far ex-
ceeded our expectations, ever attracting great atten-
ton where exhibited, taking the first prize above
all others at the Massachusetts Horticultural Soci-
ety's Exhibition the past two years.
CAUTION.
On account Of the immense popularity Of this
variety, we find that parties are Offering for sale o
spurious seed, desiring to obtain large prices for the
common sorts. We would therefore recOmmend
parties purchasing only those sealed packets bear
ing our name, as none others can be genuine.

During the month Of June question will be
submitted to the votes Of the entire membership
Of the Methodist Episcopal Church, male and
female above the age Of 81 years, the decision of
which cannot fail TO have . marked influence for
good or evil upon the future of that denomina-
tion. This question is, whether the laity shall
be represented in the legislative assembly Of the
ohurchs or whether the law-making power of the
denomination shall remain, as it has heretofore,
solely in the hands of the ministry. The fnan.
cial interests of the church have become gigan.
tic in their proportions, and it is queried wheth-
or their management should be left exclusively
in the hands Of class Of men who are called to
the sole work Of preaching the Gospel.
