The .Anti-MonoPOliSt.
A Farmers Troubles.

Think for one moment-his soil washed
away by the rains, his teams gradually
giving away; his laborers employed at
labor not renumerative ; his farming i'm
plements wearing away insects destroy
ing his crop; dry weather parching up
old mother earth either too dry or too
wet. too hot or too cold storms of wind
sweeping over his crop and laying it
waste these are only few of the diff
fculties that the farmers brain has to
encounter and overcome, and that at a
heavy outlay OF time, labor and money.
His occupation can only be followed
during the day, and not like those OF
the professions, Who can make as good
progress at night as in the day, in pre-
pairing to succeed in their vocation. Be-
sides this, the lawyer may lose his case
from ignorance and carelessness, and
still he receives his fee; the physician
may not succeed in overcoming the dis
ease of his patient; the teacher may
fail to inculcate his text books in the
minds of his pupils; the preacher may
send a soul to perdition by teaching
false doctrines; the editor may lead his
readers to adopt measures that will over
turn their government yet they are
all remunerated for their labor in dollars
and cents. Not so the farmer. If he
makes mistake he alone suffers the
loss.

LABOR AND uiSERTY.

Written for the ANrI-MoNoPoLIsr.
The tyrant's chains are only strong
While slaves submit to wear them;
And who could bind them on the throng
Deternin not to bear them!
Then clank yoLr chains, e'en tho their links
Were light as fashions feather,
The heart that rightly feels and thinks,
Would cast them off forever.
The lords of earth are only great
lille others clothe and feed them;
But where were all their pride and state,
Should labor cease to heed them!
The swain is higher than the King
Before the face Of nature;-
The monarch is useless thing,
The swain useful creature.
We toll, we spin, we delve the mine,
Sustaining each his neighbOr,
And who can hold right divine
To rob US OF our labor?
We rush to battle, bear our lot
In every ill and danger,
And who shall make the peaceful cot
TO temperate JOY stranger?
Perish all tyrants, far and near,
Beneath the chains that bind us
And perish, too, the servile tear
Which makes the slaves 1t ilndS us.
One grand, one universal claim,
One peal of moral thunder;
One glorious burst, in Ere dom's name,
Shall send our bon IS asunder

CANNING FRUIT.-Those who have to
buy the fruit they put up as we'll as the
cans, may perhaps purchase to advant-
age of the wholesale grocer, but where
one has abundance of fruit for the pick
ing, and can give the. time and trouble,
there is certainly saving in putting up
the family supplies of fruit ones self.
The cheapest. way OF getting cans is to
buy them of the manufacturer, and thus
save the profits of middlemen. The
fruit should be perfectly fresh, and the
sooner it is canned after it is taken from
the tree or vine, the better, If small
quantity, say half-a-dozen quarts, is
cooked at one time, the color OF the
fruit ard the uniformity of the cooking
will be better than il a larger quantity
is attempted. There is no necessity of
using an ounce of sugar in gross of
cans. The fruit will keep just as we'll
without it and be far more grateful to a
healthy appetite. Glass cans with glass
tops, rubber band, and screw ring
give best satisfaction, as they can be
sealed and unsealed N a moments Time.
As for the process, when the fruit is done,
pour it scaldlng hot into the cans, let
them remain untouched ID or 20 minutes,
till the fruit settles, then fill them full
again and seal up. If the can is placed
on very wet cloth it will not break
when the scalding fruit is put into it.
Turn the cans, after screwing them up
tightly, bottom side up, and if no syrup
leaks out, no air can get in. When
cold set them away in dark cool
closet

FIRM aTSD GRANGE
Wilson, His Strawberry.

frequently see it stated that we want
a new strawberry that shall be as pro-
life as the Wilson, and as hardy, and
which shall be of higher t1averand gen
orally of Il better quality. believe the
Boston folks do not consider the Wilson
fit to eat, but Boston can be left out
when we talk about many things, and
in particular Us to what concerns 4 wide
region of country. My impression Is
that the and OF the Wilson is its best
quality, because sugar Is required to cor
rect it. and | never thought much of the
taste OF those people who mix sweet APP
pies with sour to save sugar. But aside
from all this, the question at once arises,
what inducements alc presented tor
bringing out Il new strawberry better
than the Wilson? Let Us look at Viii
son himself For my part, know
nothing about him, nor does the gen
eral public | have often thought l
would like to know how he looked. and
what kind OF vile he had, If any; how
many children, If any; whether he
owned garden patch or farm;
whether he taught school or could spell
whether he belonged 10 the church, and
what were his politics, and all such mat
tiers: but have scaacely recollection
that ANYBODY knew anything about him,
and he seems to have become almost as
much iNmvth rs any one OF the founders
of the / ,ramids. And yet he was oao
of the great beneiactors OF his race, com
parable to Fulton, Morse, and Stephen
son. Before his day no common Guilt
vators could raise straw berries. Tor the
vines ran thick toy Their. and ut the best
bore a few soft berries, that We're Won
dertul because they grew At all, and the
wild sort were as II thousand to one to
the garden sort. Oh course Wilson
made nothing out OF his wonderful fruit,
though POSSIBLY somebody might have
given him s. Tor his whole stock. with
which he bought 4 barrel of flour or 4
cord of wood; and he went down the
Gulf Of time a poor man. and not long
ago. either. leaving only his name be-
hind Suppose now we raise statue TO
him? The question before the house is,
what would be the tate OF another man
who should introduce a strawberry bet
ter than the Wilson, or even equal to ii:
1t is to be noted first, that no patent can
be granted for anything OF the kind
since patents are only gwen to such
things As swoop money out OF farmer:
pockets, not for sYooping it in. There
fore. it will be necessary to send on
specimen plants to Maine to have then
tried. and to Minnesota, and to Tennessee
and to Louisiana. and to Colorado. an,
TO California. some of which Will b'
tossed away rs soon as opened; but II
so doing the propagation will let all tn
birds loose, and the plants will be al
vertised broadcast, since if each custodian
should be honest somebody will stea
plants. aS has been done many time
and the liz will be up Let nobody IN
dertake anything OF the Kind with tn
idea that he can make more than fey
dollars. But if he has a misSionar
spirit and feels for the heather, let hin
engage enthusiastically in this work c
benevolence.-pr Cross.

Cranberry Culture.

Will you please to instruct me about
the cranberry; what kind OF soil and
what kind of location are necessary to
their successful culture? have piece
OF land about five acres in extent, of
swampy character; the soil is heavy
black muck, and can be drained or in
undated with water at any time desired;
is also subject to a slight overflow at
times. Do you think such place would
or could be made to produce cranberries
proftably? How are they started, from
seed or plants? and. in fact, all necesa-
ry particulars about them.-Wm. E.
Parker, Matagorda Co., Texas.
COMMENTS BY MR.. E. w. CRANE.
The soil mentioned by your corres-
pondent, VIM. E. Parker of Matagorda
Co., Texas (heavy black muck), would
seem to be favorable for the growth of
the cranberry, and the fat that it can
be drained and inundated are favorable,
both being necessary-as is also pure
sand (without mixture OF clay OF loam)
for covering the squares before the vines
a-e set. The overflow mentioned. to
which it is subject, should be controlled,
except during Winter and early Spring
as there are times during the growing
season, especially while in bloom, when
such overflow might be disastrous to
the crop. AS to climate, cannot speak
from experience, but should think his
location rather too far south for their
successful culture, as, except among
mountain ranges, they are thought to do
better north OF the 3oth parallel iand be-
| tween that and the 45th) than below that
line particularly from the tendency they
have in warm climates to soften soon at
ter picking. AS to his further Inquiries
| We here think muck bottoms the best
for cranberries, although savanna lands,
which are composed OF peat and sand,
mixed by nature, sometimes produce
very well, and cost less to prepare.
They should be so situated that they can
be flowed from December to May. both
to fertlllze the vines and destroy insects,
and thoroughly drained during the re-
malnder OF the season. In preparing,
the land must first be cleared, then turied
or scalped and thoroughly drained by
cleaning out the main water course
through the land. and ditching by later
ais running into it. The surface between
the bitches should be slightly rounded,
and covered with pure sand to the depth
OF from four 10 six inches-when the
vines should be set, about 20 inches
apart. Vines can be obtained of par
ties in Ocean Co., n. j., at about 81 per
barrel, cost OF barrels or bags for ship
ping added. Dams are constructed OF
two walls buih:of the surplus turf left
after "leveling up the squares, filled in
with sand, the peat beneath this filling
having first been removed to the subsoil
of sand to prevent leakage. The width
OF these walls, two of turf and one oi
sand, should be in proportion to the
quantity Of water to be held. Savanna
lands generally require less draining
than peat bottoms, and do not neeC
sanding, which is Il considerable saving
of expense. They do not however
usually produce SO large crops as bot
tom lands.-N. Y. Tribune

Once, made plans, and said, when Spring

And when the Autumn gamers in its grain,
And ere the Winter whitens all the plain,
will fulfill my long projected scheme.
But, all! (heigh-ho! before the silver rains
Melted in bloom, my dream was sacrificed;
And Autumn proved my schemes We're worse
than vain;
And all the Winter, in vice of pain,3
My heart was caught, and crushed, and ago.

Sufficient for the day,-O Lord supreme!
Thy lips have said-shall be the i'll thereof
And now have no plans; make no schemes
But, like an infant rocked in tranquil Dreams
Within Thine arms, simply trust and love.

The Time to Cut Timothy,

NOTICE in the Weekly Tribune of June
Is a letter from William Forbs of Vir-
ginia in regard to the time for cutting
timothy. l beg leave to differ with him
as to the quality of the hay and the pre-
seryation of meadows when early mown.
Were it the seed that makes it valuable
for feed, then common sense would say,
let it stand until quite ripe; but we all
know that it is the stalk and leaves we
want, aud we need to cut them when In
their most nutritive state-before the
juices have gone to the head and left
them mostly composed Of hard, woody
tber-to obtain the best results. That
time, experience tells me. is as soon as
it is nicely out Of bloom; the bloom
makes dust. Such hay, we'll cured, l
never knew stock Of any kind to refuse
or fail to do we'll on. On the other
hand, | have seen cattle stand and bel
low over as nice ripe timethy as straw.
More than once have known timothy
meadows to be cut when dead ripe,
leaving the ground bleak and bare, and
the hot August and early September suns,
combined with drouth, nearly ruined
them. But l never knew an early cut
meadow to fail to sprout and pro-
duce crop of aftermath sufficient to
preserve it for the following season. To
prove the theory, l will say | have a
meadow which has been mown in that
way tor the past six years. and it still
produces full crop without the aid OF
any fertilizer except two applications OF
plaster (gypsum). So far as any OBJ
servation goes, any grass will sproul
sooner il the preceding crop be taken OF
before it is ripe. Even oats will pro
duce a second crop when cut green
