End yet The product TO the acre il TOO atnkh to
euit the small farmer; that is. he must put
more labor to each acre. and teIp . much
better average crop. Whife the meadow, last
Jeas,, which Was very excellent one, pro-
dueed about one ton to the acre, and sh'a re4r
hye-eighths, II top-dreesed, would have yissa-
ed two or two and halt tons this year. OPS

IN pr1ce the sytteua Of management must be
changed. With cheap lands and isl1 labor We
may skim tho soil, and En~kh up our Aggre-
Eates from larger arels, hut, a. laods grow
desrer and labor cheaper, By calling to our aid
tue new a:np'emonte, We must adopt that sss-
ten that trirge from the soil better returns.
A farmer on lands costing Sl00 IN ac.e
would not tiad it profitable to grow fre-
etghths OF a ton OF hay or Eve and 4 half

\ YIE1D OF HoSrY-
Aletter before me- etates that Adam Grim,
Of Wisconsin. has produced twcnty tons Of
| honey this season: he has 1G5 swaroas, most
II. or all. Italian bess. The honey is eont to
| maiktt IN boxes and barrels. The latter ia
taken from tho comb by centrifugal mo-
| ton. AID is FREQ of CONT. The slles Of
honey and bees will be about 5000. The
honey season with him has been unjust. y
good, very much above the average Thia
shows That bea-ketping has commercial
value, and should DO part Of the burtuesa on
! every fsIm. Rural.
