for success upon the same luehtlcal leTIls
which are required Of any other avOca-
ton Of life, and undoubtedly, II immense
and speedy fortunes are not made, bank
ruptcy and ruin to farmers are MS only one
to one hundred, mcted ont to the most nu-
merous Of other classes. II III" same cap
itaI, intelligence, diligence and perscycr-
ancc are employed by the man entering
upon the business Of life Us farmer rs
are used by the merchant, the lawyer, the
doctor or the mechanic or artisan-eaCh
party having a preliminary training to
the same. extent-wc have not the shadow
Of Il doubt that in any given number OF
Years tho odds in favor Of the farmer will
prepOnderate overwhelmingly. Its true,
here and there some happy hit in specu-
latiOn By the merchant may place him
high up on tho wheel OF fortune; but in
another year or so he may again find him
self fallen to the lowest round Of the lad
der, from which, credit and, 1t may be,
character gone, he may never recover; the
lawyer, like some Of our great lights OF
the past age, may by extraordinary tai
Cnts, and under (OrtuitOus circumstances,
achieve wealth and fame, but how few
ever reach beyond mediocrity, and what
vast greater number, not favored with
CxtrunCous means outside Of the vocation,
are found disgracing their hOnorcd pro-
iessiOn BY stopping to devices Of the most
questionable character to exc out an ex-
tstence, being obliged to keep up appear
anCCs at any cost. The physician, too,
requires u little lifetime, generally, be-
fore he is enabled to gain that confidence
which will secure to him practice from
those who are able to remunerate him for
his skill and how long Is he Obliged to
plOdalong the road, almost hoping against
hope, that some fortunate event may en-
able him to secure competency, and in
the end n fortune for the skill and time,
and the expense Of education, which has
been expended by him? And so on, but
we may 90 to the end Of the chapter.
But the farmer, with his cap iLal (iarm
and stock unincumbercd, with intelIl-
VenCe, and the same determination which
Is shown By the other classes to attain sue
cess, can hardly fail to secure IN hohOrn..
PIE support from 'hS NTry V'S'ln"s ~.
Of his land the judicious divcrsiiying OF
his crops, and the intelligence and fore
sight to determine the proper products
to raise and the proper time to dispose OF
them, to enable him to ran k rs one OF the
