Improve Your FARM.

MAKE up your mind to steadily improve
the condition of your land; above all, kill
the weeds; underdrain; grow more clover,
peas and roots, and consume them all on
the farm. Make more and better manure.
Buy bran to feed out Sell timothy hay,
if need be, but never sell clover hay. Sell
straw whenever, as now in this section,
it is worth half as much per ton as bran.
Study the chemisty of manures. There
are many places where artificial fertiliz-
ers can be used to great advantage I'm
prove your stock; feed literally. Raise a
few thoroughbreds, and gradually work
your way into the business but do not be
in a hurry. Set out choice fruit trees,
and take care of them. Spend moderate
". Live within your income. Do not
discount your prospects. And again
T saw kill the aoeeds. Cul

the weed seeds grow, and then kill the
Young plants. | feel sure that the young
farmer who follows this advice will not
have to wait many years before getting
his reward. I look upon it as absolutely
certain that we shall get good prices for
farm produce in the near future. l fear
we shall get extravagantly high prices. !
fear still more that few farmers will profit
by them. Prices never have been and
never can be high enough to make poor
farming profitable. You must get your
land in good condition now, and thus be
ready to avail yourselves of the high
prices when they come-as come they will

Educating the Will.

If YOU inquire how the true energy OF
will NAV be attained, the general answer
is, that the will, like other faculties, Is
improved by rightly using 1t. Accustom
Yourselves not to depend chiefly on others,
but to make decisions of your own; to
consider deliberately each practical ques-
tion that arises, and then to come to posi-
tive determination on it, if this be
possible. Every instance IN which
YOU say resolutely, no! TO a
seductive temptation; every, time that
YOU say firmly, yes! to the call OF
selfdenying duty; every time that you
resist the urgency of inclination that
would deter you from an arduous course
of action that your Judgment and con-
science deliberately approve; every tlme
that in the midst of perplexitles you can
so concentrate your force OF mind as to
decide on the thing to be done without
vacillation or delay, you Will have gained
somewhat in true executive power.
Some nersons who have been conscious
Of being specially deficient In strength OF
will have resorted to particular expedlents
~ assist their firmness. The late Mr.:
Prescott the elegant and justly admired
historian. it is said, used to direct his ser
nant to wait, after he had walked him in
tho morning. outside OF his chamber
door, and if, after a certain NUMBER o.
NANTES he had not arisen, to take the
nin,hes from the bed and carry them
awav To confirm his decision to work
az q certain rate upon his history, he often

sto weeks the task he had imposed upor

enrfeit when incurred. This may b.

The difference between the cost

THO UI11tTt0CE DtCWttH I1It COEI OF
narrow-gaug railroads and ordinary four
feeteig ht-and- a-halfinch gauge is rather
more than most people imagine-that is,
if we are to take the word of a writer in
the F9nancier There are now fifteen mar.
w-gauge railroads in operation in the
United States, having 700 miles of track,
and there are no less than twenty organiza-
tons and 1880 miles under process of
construction. The roads have been plan
ned and constructed in the past two years.
The cost through level country isabout
$4,000 mile, including equipment OF
rolling stock, while the broad-gauge costs
from $35, 900 to $4,000 per mile.

least, an example of resolution to main
tain the decisions of the will 1t is, no
doubt, however, better to attain force of
will that shall render such expedients un-
necessary. Most persons can accomplish
this, if really in earnest. Without the
power of deciding with due promptness,
and of adhering firmly to your decisions
when they have been made, it will be in
vain to expect that you will act in life
with any considerable success.-1rue
