Awriter In The Boston Cultivator thinks
the farmer who works from eight TO ten
hours day, and then devotes the rest of
his working hours to study and to plan
ming tor future work, nine times out OF ten
viii be more successful, will live longer
and live happier, and exert wider and
better influence among his neighbors,
than he who labors from IL to 16 hours,
and allows his brain-power to remain idle.
Muscle may be primary element of sue
cess in farming, as it must be In many
other occupations, but unless controlled by
sound and active intellect it will &C.
complish little. He adds:
When 60 among farmers and note the
wasn't of system so manifest in their work,
the hap-hazard way in which they manage
their affairs, and the amount OF time and
labor which they absolutely waste through
ignorance, carelessness, and lack of fore
thought, wonder that their reward is as
good as it is. l have seen men tug with
huge stones, when by taking advantage of
one Of the most simple Of mechanical
laws, they might have moved the stone in
much less time, and with but trifling ex-
penditure Of muscular power; and the lift
ing of these stones was simply an Illus
tration Of the way in which they did the
whole of their farm work.

The following is specimen: 81 do here
bv order my executors to put no new linen
about my dead body, put my worst SHIRT
on it, and my worst handkerchief on the
head, and the worst drawers and breeches
ON nv body. and the worst stockings on
nv legs and feet, and invite my neighbors
to come to my spouse, who shall treat
them in moderation with barrel OF cider,
and two gallons of rum or other spurious
drinks. and a busbel OF wheat flour baked
into cakes; and when they are ready to
carry the corpse, then in the house or yard,
read the oregoing and following part Of
this testament loudly, so that all may hear
it.n One might almost fancy this was the
prose original Of "Rosin the Bow so like
are the injumclions of the will and the
poem. One cannot help wondering if
these different requests were really carried
out, and, if they were, how much and how
far the spouse" entered into the spirit Of
the occasion.
