Farming rs q Business.

A man who is not smart enough to run a
store, is not smart enough to nun a farm.
Farmers are not to be made of what is left
after lawyers, doctors, ministers and mer-
chants are sorted and picked out. And if
a man fails on farm it is not likely he
will succeed in a store, for it requires more
talent to be thriving farmer than to be an
average merchant.
The one cause of great failure is the dis
proportion between a mans farm and his
capital. A farmers capital is skill, labor
and capital. If he has little cash he must
have no more land than he can thoroughly
manage by his personal labor. Every acre
beyond that is an encumbrance. One acre
well worked is more profitable than twenty
acres SKINNED over. 1t is this greed OF
land by farmers that have not the capital
to work it that keeps SO many poor. Small
farms are better than large ones, simply
because they are better suited to the CAPT
tai of common farmers. Large farmers
with large capital are better than small
ones. Farming is good business for all
men who conduct it on proper principles,
and have capital according to the size OF
their farms.

a PLAN FOR SPECIE PAYMENTs.-Hon
Freeman Clarke will introduce in the
House tomorrow bill to provide a cur
rency of coin and paper of equal and uni
form value throughout the United States.
His former position as an old member of
the Ways and Means and ex-Comptroller
of the Currency gives his project some val
ne. The first section provides for redemp-
ton in coin of legal-tender notes after
thirty days notice, with a proviso that
they can be re-issued. Second, National
banks shall continue to hold their legal
reserved fund, in addition to the coin on
hand, till September l. 1872, after which
such a requirement for reserve shall cease.
Four National banks are authorized to
hold stock in a-National bank to be author
lied in New York to an amount not eX-
ceeding one per cent. of capital stock of
the bank so subscribing, and to appoint
such New York bank as redeeming agent.
Fifth, National banks shall be exempt
from taxation, except this redeeming
bank. Sixth, no coin shall be sold by the
Treasury when it will reduce the coin bal
ance below one hundred millions, until
the time fixed for redeeming the legal ten
ders. Seven, Duties shall be paid in coin.

Prepare to Plant Irish Potatoes.

During the ensuing month of February
potatoes should be planted for an early
crop. The proper time for preparing the
ground is in this month. Break up the
ground at least a foot in depth with the
pillow or spade. This exposure of the soil
to the frosts of this month will destroy the
grub worms that are often destructive to
this crop in the Spring. In February
open burrows with the pillow or spade at
least ten inches deep, into which put three
of manure, which may be fresh from the
stables or COW pen, if no other be on hand.
Put two or three inches of soil on top of
the manure, when the trenches win be
ready for the tubers. Fill up the trenches
and make low ridge on the top of the
potatoes, which will give seven or eight
inches of soil 10 protect them from freez-
ing. If the Early Rose be the variety
planted, they will ripen from the first OF
May to the middle of June, when they
may be Immediately planted for a second
crop.-Rurui Soltherner.

FARM AND HOME.
settled Policy on the Farm.

The Nel0 England Homestead furnish
Is the following suggestions. The sue
cessful farmer can decide whether they are
true or not:
The whole secret of the successful farm
or often lies In his having a fixed plan
of operations. Multitudes have no plan
but to meet their immediate wants and
make money by the easiest and seemingly
shortest methods. If wool brings high
prices, they will gradually give up dairy
ing and work in sheep, with the expecta-
ton of making their fortunes. If wool
and mutton raising for time does not pay,
they sell their flocks at q great sacrifice.
If hops are worth 60 .cents a pound,
they invest in hop poles and kilns for dry
ing, and expect sudden wealth. If when
their yards come into full bearing the
prices fall off one-half or more, they are
disguised and ready to pillow up their yards,
concluding the business will not pay.
There are men who are always taking up
q good thing little too late TO make money
by it. The farmer cannot afford this con-
tinual change. His business is less spec
ulative than any other, and, after proyi-
D ding for the wants of his family and stock,
he should give his attention steadily to
the production of few animals, crops or
other products on which he can rely to
raise money. Any branch of farm indus
try steadily followed will he found profita-

To CAUSE THE HAIR oFTHE NAME AND
TAIL TO GRow.--In reply to b. G. Drake,
in the Rural Nels- Yorker of Dec. 9th,
beg to give the following recipe, which
have personally proven TO be efficient in
restoring healthy growth of hair on the
tails and names of horses: Corrosive sub
Innate, (hyd. bichloride,l oxymuriate of
mercury, each four grains in one ounce of
distilled water. Wash the parts where
the hair is thin with warm water and soap
then rub dry with linen cloth, and inn
mediately after rub in some of the above
liniment. If the hair has been rubbed off
by the animals own endeavors to allay Gu
taneous irritation. then dress with the fol-
lowing ointment: One ounce of fine -four
sulphur, one ounce of fine pulverized salt
peter, made Into soft ointment with fresh
butter or fresh rendered hogs lard; rub in
at night and wash out in the morning
with warm water and soap; repeat three
or four times. If the hair is scant from
natural debility Of the capillary organs,
then simply use cold water applied with a
soft sponge; avoid all combing or brush
ing, and clean the main and tail, as the
Arabs do, with coarse flannel rubber

Nervous or Sick Headache, says cores
pendent of the Cincinnati Gazette, "Can
generally be cured if taken in time, by the
use of bromide of pOtass. When the at
tack is felt to be coming on, take twenty
grains Of the bromide dissolved in water ;
go to bed and sleep two or three hours and
you are cured. Sometimes it may be nee
essary to repeat the dose which may be
done in two or three hours. The bromide
Is perfectly harmless, unless taken in very
large doses. There will be no danger in
taking twenty grains every two hours, I'M
til you have taken three doses. But most
cases, If taken in hand early, will need
only one or at most two doses. y

UNREST.
By MATTE J. ROACH.

o, why in our pilgrimage weary,
Dove whisper, sad and low;
That the sunshine is always ieeting,
But the shadows linger slow.
If Nature upon us smiles blandly,
And surrounds us with her best.
Why, yet, is there vacant longing
Vague something call "unress."
We set model before us, far,
And we strive to reach this goal
While thinking-ah ! thinking so idly,
1t will satisfy the soul
Thus We ponder, and worry and toll.
And windy much zeal and zes:,
Then the first glad shout is echoed
BY murmurings Of unrest.
And how soon poisoned arrow,
Dsturbs each feigned repose-
And dark is the shadow above us,
While we sigh for others woes
And joy itself, has power-alasi
Fen to rankle in the breast,
For far in the hearts dim realm there turks
The phantom we term unrest.
o God is the heart of weary man,
Sole, receptacle OF woe?
And to which the sorrows of all time,
Have ceaseless ebb and flow
Is he thus forever doomed to sigh,
Grim misery's jade and jest,
And tossed forever shall /. be,
The sad victim of unrest
Then, why does the toll worn christians eye,
Light up with a sudden glow;
While tender pathos his features mark,
Such, methinks. as angels know.
All! he reads in that hallowed book,
He sees the promises blest-
Again his finger traces the words $3.50
He knows it is "perfect rest"
