Much labor II done on farms that il not farm

But farming in Its true sense l. a profession

and needs equal study, mental capacity, and
intelllgently directed labor TO command sue
cess in it. The principles which underlie
the practice of the true farmer must be well

OF operations must be followed. Having thor

One Of the nercest typhoons that has ever visited

storm had fairy set In 1t fell rapidly reaching
the lowest point at eight A. II. OF the Gath, when 1t
indicated 2s.27. This was the climax OF the ty-
phoon, and by npon Of that day the waters OF the
bay were rs calm as II even ripple had never dis.
turbed them. eass.s- H
The damage done on shore was very considera-
Bile; but the shipping suffered comparatively but
very little. The Pacific Mail Company were the
heaviest losers. One lighter loaded with tea, went
to pieces and the bay was strewn with boxes of
tea, most OF which was however, reclaimed, but in
a very damaged condition. Another lighter, loaded
with COAL sank, and another, water lighter, went
ashore, but was gotten on, after some exertion,
without sustaining any very great damage.
The Idaho--the United states storeship-ost four
OF her boats, and at one time the ofnces feared
tnat they would to abandon ner; but this step,
happily, was moi necessary. st
A pilot boat was sunk, one steamer was driven
ashore and several minor casualties such as loss Of
bowsprits or some Of the spars and rigging, are re-
ported. Several Japanese boats were crushed and
two large Junks were sunk. Luckily the steamship
Ame RIGA, rom San Francisco, arrived just before
the advent OF the typhoon; some tears were en-
tertatned OF the China, wnicn had left twenty four
hours previous but she had probably run out OF IT,
as the centre OF the typhoon passed over Sagamt,
point about twenty.three miles from Yokohama.
The Pacific Mail C0npany's coal sheds were one
half DESTROYED, as the position OF the same is very
exposad The bund-the road on the wafer front
was completely cut up and inundated, some or the
huge stones OF the sea wall being carried distance
OF over forty feet. Almost every house on the ound
several houses were blown down. entailing the loss
OF three lives and woqndng several AlmosE all the
were entirely rooted up and broken. IL IS Q very
