Faith in Farming.

Mn. Error The great trouble with US far
mers is we have no faith in farming We
work only part Of the time ut farming, and
the remainder of The Time at something else,
aud the farm suffers corrcspondiugly. We do
not enlist our energies and capital in it as
business mon do in other enterprises
lfauy surplus capital is acquired, it is in
vested in HE hunk, railway, or some other
stocks, or in Z S. bonds, or land speculntions,
and is not put on the farm in the shape of I'M
provemenis, with u view to enhancc lis value
and increase its productions.
anna young man yet, but can remember
when the country around Sandy Springs was
as poor and rs unproductivc ns any pnrt Of
our county, and when some that are now the
beat aud most improved furms in that neigh
borhood wnud not hive brought len dollars
per acre. 1t is now the garden spot of our
county. fiallng in beauty and produciyeness
the rich mnds Of Illinois aud Missouri Now,
why is 1t that that neighborhood has improv-
ed faster than the other parts Of the county
Simply because the farmers in it have given
their time and energy to their farms had,
faith in their business, aud kept ont of poll.
tics II is curse to any man who wants TO
make living by farming, to get mixed up in
politics. 1t units him for his real work and
he is never beltered by it. am sorry to say
that too many farmers lose their time and
means mfddlng in politics, and if they would
devote their time and energy with the same
enthusiasm and seI-dcnial 10 their farms that
they give TO politics. they would he richer,
more contened, and certainly, happier men.

srusic and Politics.

The barbaric age of drums and flies is
again approaching, its disciples smelling
afar off an election. The war-horse has
not keener scent for battle than has
a small-beer politician for local politi-
cal contest; consequently the horrid
drum and the squeaking fife can be
heard nightly among the cohorts OF
Africa. The leaders are organizing
political bands among the negroes, form
ing such in semi-religious associations.
Almost every night you can see a lot OF
struggling negroes following drum and
fife with lamentable pertinacity to some
locality where noisy politicians make
sensational speeches in favor of them
selves or each other. The game has
almost played out in Memphis; the
negro political power is broken into
atoms, and it would be blessing land
that not in disguised if the same fate
was meted out to the Internal drums
and ear-splitting ffes. In the name Of
the nine Muses--Calliope, Clio. Mel
pomene, Erato, Urania, ITALIA, Polym-
MIA, Terpsichore, and especially Eu-
terpe-we ask, is there no legal remedy
by city ordinance or chancery injunction
to stop this street nuisance2 ID
