WHAT THE HEBREWS KNEW OF
FARMING.


In his laws Moses made agriculture the
basis of the State. According to this princi-
pie he apportioned to every citizen certain
portion OF land, marked by fixed boundaries.
Land grabbing specuations were prevented
by the law, which required all lands in the
commonwealth to revert to the heirs of the
original owners on the jubilee year. The
occupation of the farmer was held in honor
from being thus protected by the fundament-
al law of the State. None were so rich or
noble us to disdain to put their hand to the
pillow q Kings xix. 10; . Chron. XVI. l0.)
Various means were resorted to by the He
brews to increase the fertility of their soil.
The stones We're gathered and built into
walls water was brought in aqueducts from
great distances, and many kinds of manure
were used. The hills were terraced to the
very tops, and planted with vineyards and
gardens, They cultivated wheat, barley,
millet. beans, and perhaps rice. lisa. xviii.
25.) In agricultural implements the He
brews were not so far behind the present
age ms we are prone TO think. Isaiah lived
700 years before Christ, yet in his day iron
plows were in use, for he prophesied of the
time when swords should be turned to plow-
shares and spears to pruning hooks. This
passage shows too that they had instruments
for pruning vines and trees. The animals
used IN blowing were cattle and donkeys.
Horses were not in common use among the
Hebrews. The original method Of harvest
ing grain was to pull up by the roots but
slckles were used among the Hebrews from
the time of Joshua. Harvest among them
was time of rejoicing. cheerful songs being
heard in every field. Thrcshing was effected
by fails, the feet of animals, or h. drags or
rollers. Vineyards and olive groves were
extensively and carefully cultivated. Gull
nary plants and fruit-trces were among the
first objects Of attention. Palestine was said
to flow with milk and honey. Bees were
highly esteemed. Their hives were made of
clay mixed with straw, but stores of honey
We're often found in hollow trees and assures
of the rocks. psalm lxxxi. l6.) One re-
markable provision of the Mosaic law in re-
gard to agriculture WAS the Sabbatic year.
Oev. XIV. ID Every seventh year was /,
year of rest, not so much to the farmer us to
the farm. Nothing was sown, and nothing
was rcaped the vines were not pruned /;
there was no gathering of fruit. The object
of this regulation seems to have been to pre-
serve the wild beasts, to let the land recover
strength. and to teach the people to he prOvi-
dent and look ont for the future But the
year was not spent in dleness. The people
could hunt, fish, look alter their bees and
iiocks repair their buildings or furniture,
manufacture CLOTH or carry on commerce.

When we see professor go home from
