LET US INITIATE.

The following sound financial doctrine is
advanced by the MO6eriy NO. Enterprise
Monitor:
Let's initiate the currency by general
forward movement into the corn-6elds, the
wheat aud oat.6elds the meadows, the to-
bacco, potato, turnip, aud cabbage patches,
and raise the whappingest, biggest crop ever
known to the country. The greatest trouble
with this country is, we have nothing to sell.
We import nearly everything we eat, drink
and wear, aud money is continually going
out and little coming in.
We can initiate by raising corn at so cents
bushel. 1t is worth nearly dollar now.
We can initiate on potatoes at 80 cents
The average price in Moberly is 81, and
seven hundred carloads are shipped to this
point annually.
We can initiate on cabbage at five cents n
head, and they never sell here for less than
ten, aud half the time they are scarce as
oranges even at the latter figures.
A man can make one hundred pounds of
tobacco for every day he works in his CROP
and tobacco sells at an average Of five dol
lars per hundred. This is as good pay as
auJ VI Jul Couhty OihSiaiS BOt' AOVeSNO
always brings the cash, too
Shall we say anything about beef at four
cents and pork at three to five cents per
pound, when we have lanl that only needs
the sunlight to make it rival the bluegrass
regions Of Kentucky for pasturage
These are all facts. The country has not
gone to destruction, by any means. What
we need is work, labor, toll, and there is no
excellence without these. The season is
opening auspiciously and the outlook for
good crops was never so promising. He 20
to the fields, then, and aid nature in making
you rich. The towns are full Of men who
are out of employment, and the fields lie
sere and brown under cover Of last years
stubble. In the towns Of this county there
are enough idle men to raise provisions
enough to feed the whole county. These
men "toil not, neither do they spin" and the
loss OF their labor to the industrial necessi.
ties is sufficient, if properly worked up al
over the country, to pay the national debt il
a few years, and we would all be rich.

THE BEAUTIFUL YEARS OF OUR Low

THE BEAUTIFUL YEARS OF OUR LOVE.
stood by the stream where the wild roses grew,
In the green gloom Of summer, when Nature looked
new,
And thought Of the time whom roamed there with
you,
In the beautiful years Of our love.
We poor but the pearl Of affection was ours,
And We loved the glad world, with It's sunbeams and
showers;
All Life was a vaysdo Of fountains and flowers,
In the beautiful years Of our love.
There are isles in life's cannot forget,
Till the light of Its sun in the willow has set,
And our spirits must turn with the longing regret
To the beautiful years Of our love;
For we dreamed of the pleasure, and not the
That time the scenes Of the future might throw,
And we hoped for the joys that should know
In the beautiful years Of our love.
As an exile looks back from the waves Of the deep
To the blue-fadng hill where his fOrefathOrs sleep,
o. thus when the Of the tempest shall sweep
Ger the beautiful years Of our love,
Will souls from the fu ure look backward through
toars
To tho shore where the splendor Of youth disappears
And weep for the light of those time-buried years
The beautiful years Of our love.

For the VERMONT FARMER.
ALONE.

How ten we hear some one telling
friend Of the days that have flown,
And as they describe some occurrence,
Thoy ray, 81 was then all alone"
Alone where was memory sleepingi
Where had fed the thoughts Of tho pasti
That they persisted like bright summer flowers,
That wIthor before the cold blast
All no though our friends be far distant,
And the desert Sahara" our home;
Our thoughts are still our companions,
Though at times far away they may roam.
They bring back the friends we have cherished
The pleasures we once called our own
Sweet memories float softly around us,
And so we are never alone.
But if thought, that great boon, was denied u.s.
We have always that truost Of friends,
Whose presence is ever about us,
To guard and protect, to the end.
IIo will never forsaken or forget us,
For lie gave His blood TO atone
For tho sins Of the world, and He's near usi
We are never, no never, alone.

VALUE OF PERSONAL EXPERT.

And mark this there is never moro in
torcsting story than that which man tells
about himself. The Rhyme Of tho Ancient
Mariner derives much of its interest because
the man who told 1t was himself the mar
iner lie sat down, that man whose finger
was skinny, like the finger of death, and be-
gan to tell that dismal story of the ship Mt
sea in great calm, when Shiny things did
crawl with legs over the shiny sea. The
wedding guest sat still to listen. for the old
man was himself story. There is always
u great deal of interest excited by personal
narrative. Virgil, the poet, know this, and,
therefore, ho wisely makes 4Eneas tell his
own story, and makes him begin il by say
ing "In which also had great part my
self" So If you would interest your friends,
toll them what you felt yourself. Tell them
how you were once n lost. abandoned sinner,
how the Lord met with you, how you bowed
your knees, and poured out your soul before
God, and how at last you lcaped with joy.

Note next, it must BIO story of free grace.
1t is not Tell thy friends how great things
thou hast done myself" but show great
things hG Lord hath done for thee" The
man who always dwells upon free will and
the power OF the creature, aud denies the
doctrines Of grace, invariably mixes up n
great deal OF what he has done himself in
telling his experience; hut the believer in
free grace, who holds tho great cardinal
truths Of tho gospel. ignores this, and de-
clares, IL will tell what the lerd hath done
for me. 1t is true | must tell how I was
first made TO pray; but | will tell 1t thus
" 'GTaoO taught my soul 10 pray,
Grace made my eyes oertoW.'
II Is true, must tell in how many troubles
and trials God has been with me- but will
tell II thus

cribes it all to tho love and grace Of the

and makes them his children, heirs for life
