Strength evaporafes fast at this season. This is

Could it be-becsuse they advertised in
the local paper-that which nobody took
the trouble to read? Doubtful.
One day l met an old friend and custom
er whom / had often wondered what had
become of, as well as some others of his
neighbors, who were once good paying
customers of mine.
How are you?" said he, giving me his
hand. How do you prosper? Going
down hill, eh?"

are still in the business, let us see your

farming are to be drawn from such re-
suits as these; so many untold circum-
stances of abatement enter into the cost,
that if these were the only elements given
in the case, the solution of the problem
would give the most erroneous and decep-
tive results
We are not to look to agriculture for
any extraordinary or sudden gains, as for
example the drawing Of prize in lot
terry, or a shrewd speculation in stock.
1--we will take ten merchants with fixed
amount Of capital, and ten farmers with
the same amount, we will find that at the
end OF twenty years the farmers have the
greater increase, and il is more evenly di-
Vided among them than among the mer
ch- hts. Farming is also far safer and
more certain 10 secure competence than

Profit OF Farming.

No small experience and some observa-
ton cOnvinces me that, circumstances be
ing equal, farming will furnish as ample a
compensation for labor, as ample divi-
dend upon capital invested, as the com
mon trades which men engage in, and
even the ordinary pursuits of mercantile
and commercial life. OF course, / except
all extraordinary cases Of good fortune,
and all matter of gambling and specula-
ton
The returns of most crops strike one
sometimes with astOnishment, and would,
if taken AS n test, lead to the most delu-
sive speculations. A grain OF seed some
times returns one hundred fold and this
being sOwn second year would, perhaps,
give ten thousand fold, and SCI ON in geo
metrical ratio. Seventy bushels of pota-
toes planted will yield fourteen hundred,
or twenty for one bushel of wheat
sown will yield thirty bushels. or thirty

sixty bushels, or two hundred and forty
Tor one; pound of carrot, beet or ruta
baga seed will produce six TO nine hun
dred bushels. worth one hundred dollars.
The proceeds in these eases seem To be
enormous, yet they are constantly real

paratively small expense. But no conf

WE are not only in the habit of cutting
our grass too late but we give il too much
sun, IN our haste to finish the Job in one
day. This course may save labor, bat it
loses nourishment. 1t is not very much
more laborious to cure hay in the cock
Cut the grass after the dew is off, and let
it lie until the middle of the afternoon,
and then bunch it in the usual way. Let
it remain in this condition until the ti.ird
day. Then shake up the cocks little
with fork, bringing the bottom to the
top, and let il remain until the next day.
Ii it storms the hay will not harm much
to lie over. Ii it is good weather, give it
an hour or two of sun, and put in the
barn. This course saves much of the
labor of tedding and turning There is
but one rsking, and the quality of the hay
il very much better than the sun-drcd
and hastily-cured article. All the sweet
ness and aroma of the grass arc retained I;
and the cattle eat it with higher relish,
and thrive better upon it. 1t one is fur
nished with hay caps there is very little
risk in curing hay IN this way The
capped cocks might stay in the field a
week without harm. A farmer may use
his hay-tedder quite too much for the
good of his fodder.-Anaericdn Agricul-
