Win some farmer, who believes that
whatever is is right, so far as farming is
concerned, tell us why more hours labor
should be required to support family on a
farm than anywhere else? Will some one
tell us why farm products cannot wait for
sale until they are wanted, as we'll as other
things? VIII some one tell us how it is
that those farm products that are abused up,
not pound or bushel of which rotted or was
thrown away for want Of consumption, leere
so much ia excess Of their demand that they
brought nthing? Will some one tell us
why business which requires capital Of
$4,000 to work with, great skill and long
apprenticeship to learn it, and II hours a
day to look after it, should not pay as much
dividend as the Wheel.barrow with man be-
hind it? Will some one tell US why, when
one man holds something in his hand that
another man will die for if he don't get it,
the man who holds it should beg and
plead for the other man to take it? Win
some one tell us how it is that the man who
keeps the corner grocery knows so much bet
ter what it's worth to raise bushel of pota-
toes than the man who did it2 Will some
one tell us who it really is that makes the

some Of our most successful farmers were
very illilcrate. A farmer without an educa
ton relies more upon his own exertions
while one of cultivated mind relies too much
upon books. know of two men in Water
ford who could neither read nor write, that
were the best farmers and the richest men
in town thirty years ago. Ono of the most
important things is to know how to feed
to stock and make the most of IL. Some
men will make more out Of three tons of hay
than others will out of five. In time this
will make II great difference.
j. &. Hovoy; My little brother seems to
think education Of little consequence to
farmer. Now we need such II training rs
shall make us the greatest bencftctors to
ourselves and the community in which we
live. If dollars are the principal thing, we
can get rich without much learning. We
want to be able to read books and papers
intelligontly, and if we understand some of
the languages all the better.
w. Nj. Hovey: | came here tonight TO
lind out what successful farmer Is. Is II
one who makes II large amount Of money
and makes everything subsorviunt to that
end, neglecting his childrens education, aud
the building up of society9 or is IL one who
makes good living, keeps out OF debt, and
helps benefit the community

kept his business So we'll regulated us not to
fail when crisis comes, as at the present
time

AN OLD FASHIONED MOTHER AND
A REFORMED BOY.

Some time ago, Mrs Buckelby,
who lives over in Berrien county, Mich,
directed her son Samuel, lad Of Ii years
to take a turn at the churn. Now, as Sam.
uel had set his heart on going n.6shing at
that very time, he got his back up" and
fiatly refused to agtate the cream. The
curvature was promptly taken out OF his
spine by slipper, and, with tears in bis
eyes, he went on duty with the dasher. In
about half an hour, and during the brief alb.
sence OF his mother, his eyes fell upon a
plate Of hy.poison, and bright, smart
thought struck him. Just before Mrs. b
came in, Samuel lifted the fatal platter to
his face, and as she entered he put the =" poi
son from his lips with the dramatic excla.
nation : There, mother, guess you won't
lick me no more " Now what did this
Spartan dame do2 Did she shrek for
doctor and fall into hysterics2 Not much.
She simply took Samuel by the nape of the
neck, lifted him deftly into the pantry, beat
the whites Of six eggs together, and told him
to engulf the same instanter; he refusing,
she called the hired girl, and 10 twinkling
Sam found himself outside the albumen.
Then Mrs. b. began preparing a mustard
emetic Seeing this, Sans pluck dissolved,
and he commenced begging, crying, 81 was
only tryin' to skeer ye. But the stern
mother was not to be softened, aud Samuel
had to swallow the mustard He was then
forced to take dose of pain-kiler, aud had
his back rubbed with Vigor of Life, and
his stomach with the " Oil of Gladness. "
Then he vomited up everything but his boots
and socks. This being over, be took seven
Ayers pills. two spoonfuls of castor oil,
tea spoonful of salts, aud blue pill And
now, if you want to behold the maddest boy
in Michigan, just say Ay.poison to Sam
Buckelby.

REASON VS.. CREED.

All nature Is but one stupendous thought,
Which God in love and wisdom hath outwrought
All things cooperate and ever blend,
And servo each other to some noble end.
But srseds have so be-numbed our feeble sense,
Our just conceptions Of Omnipotenco
So slandered reason, and Gods light within,
We sometimes fear our purest thoughts are sin.
OH man be Just, be true to reasons light.
Dlspel this moral gloom that dims thy sight.
What e'er unbiased judgment doth commend
Pursue with freedom, and in love defend.

How hard II 10 to find friend
In whom you always can depend.
Sometimes friend you think you've got,
When tried and proved you have them not.
Some, to serve some selfish end,
VIII swear and vow TO be your friend,
But soon as serving self IL DER,
Behold they are your friends no more
Others will act part more base,
Always be friendly 10 your face,
But turn your back and they your name
Will expose to inhmy and shame.
Apparent friendship others show,
To and out all you may know.
Your secrets thus are all pumped out,
And then they're handed all about.
A true ffisnd highly prize,
But treacherous one do dospse.
All In suspense ask around,
Where can real, true friend be found
