WORK IND HITT.7
BY JOAQUIN MILLER.

Forty days and forty nights,
Blown about the broken waters.
Noah and his sons and daughters
Forty days they beat and blow
Forty days of faith, and loi
The olive leaf, the lifted heights,
The rest at last, the calm delights.
Forty days of sun and sand,
Serpents, beasts, and wilderness.
Desolation and distress,
War and famine, wall and woe
Forty years of faith, and 10,
The mighty Moses lifts hand
And shows at last the Promised Land.
Forty days to fast and pray,
The patient Christ outworn Jefied
The angry tempter at his side
Forty days or forty years
OF patient sacrifice and tears
Lo! what are all of these the day
THAT Time has nothing more to say?
Lift your horns, exult an blow,
Believe and labor Tree and vine
Must flourish ere the frnit and wine
Reward your planting. Round and round
The rocky walls, with faith profound,
The trumpets blew, blew loud, and 10!
The tumbled wall of jericho.

THE FARMER AS A BUSINESS MAN.

The commercial aspect Of the farm needs
frightening. There are many men who
have grown rish upon their farms. They
are successful business men. They have ex-
ercised as high commercial skill, at times, as
merchants and manufacturers employ, and
their success has been in proportion to their
skill in the art and science of money gather
ing. But, aside from these farmer princes,
for there are farmer princes SIS well as mer-
chant princes, there are many men on farms
who do not succeed better because they are
not good business men, and not because the
business itself is not profitable. Farmers
should be MS wise in their generation as the
shopkeepers. The production for market
is matter in which much high skill may be
compressed. The selection Of the best mar
ket, the increase OF demand by adapting the
production to meet popular tastes, and the
opening of new markets, the question OF
how much the cost should be for meeting
the consumer--all these are questions which
come before1the farmer as business man !;
and who can doubt that farming would be-
come betteroccupatien if all these matters
were settled according to the best OF their
possibilities? afs
A great deaEdepends upon the settlement
of these questiens. Here is a man who gets
so cents pound for his butter the year
round by giving an attractive form and
by working up a constant demand anaong
wealthy customars. There issanother man
who 2ets returnsat the rate of $12 day for
his labsn, because he sas at work to RAISE .

EGG RAISING.

Some of the most experienced egg dealers
declare that there is no profit in raising
poultry to compare with producing eggs. A
single hen will lay from twelve to fifteen
dozen marketable eggs per annum, selling
at an average of thirteen cents per dozen,
and the birds thus occupied can be housed
and fed for less than fifty cents for the whole
period. III the east the price per dozen is
much higher. Here we buy them by the
Dozen Step into ain eastern produce or gro-
cerv establishment and they sell so many
eggs for quarter Of dollar. There is no
reason why the chnyst.Aizing process should
not become quite general. and egg produc-
tion stimRlated'as never before,- and the food
supply receive lnrge accessions from this
sourcs- The already great and Increasing
consumption Of eggs in England and France,
shows growing appreciation of this form OF
food compaTsd with any other. 1t is thought
the annual sales.in the United States alone
must aggregate nearly $20,000,00 In Lima.
Peru, eggs sell at 81 per dozen, equal to $4
per poantl chrystallizcd.. ct is thought this
new process for preserving for utilization
the industry of our hens and pulIets may be-
very acceptable as well as beneficial in a
business and domestic point Of view. .-RxyoJ

THE P0 % LTRY YARD
Ta ExrERM1KArE POULTRY PARASITES

The poll-ticE is prevented or got rid of by
sligntly greasing the heads of the chicks as
soon as Matched. The same process repeated
once a week, for about two or three weeks,
will carry them beyond any further danger.
Lice can be got nia of by dusting sulphur
we'll into the feathers Of the birds. If the
chickens are young and under the hen, dust
the hen thoroughly with sulphur, and, pro-
vided the usual dust-bahh be supplied, this
treatmentwill keep the fowls clean if repeat
ed about once week.
Of the cape worm, it is difficult to sey
anything positive, though. of course, pre-
yention is best. In order to get rid Of IL, 8
pest, the surest way, if the yard is infested,
is to remove the fowls entirely away from
the contaminated ground. Eknow of yard
that was once infested for many years. One
year the chickens were all taken across. a
brock to another part of the farm, ans' rot
allowed TO visit the old ground until too
large to get the disease. No trace of the
cares haebeen seen there since then, though
several years have elapsed. OF the remedies
for gapes, there are as many as there are

OF land is cropped, the moisture becomes
exhausted, and unless there be AN abundant
supply from the next winters rain, there is
liKeiy 70 be faittTe of the following crop.
lhe same piece of land under fallow. and
kept free from weeds, with well stirred snr-
lace solb, Will retain much of the moisture
stored up during the preceding winters
rans. Adding to tins the water of another
RAINY season for one crop, it is reasonable to
suppose that summer fAllowed land will be
much sa2rer OF crop than ground not fall
lowed.
And now the question arises, inasmuch as
last winter WAS 4 dry one, and the soil was
not wet to amount to anything, will the rain
OF the coming winter insure /, crop on soil
which has this seasons lain fallow! Will
such summer fallow show mucip advantage
over sod not fallowed which was too dry to
produce crop? We think that the differ
ence will not be SO marked as in ordinary
seasons. In some cases the soil not ifallowed
will produce just as well as the talowed, if
we have anything like enough rain to- make
crop. On some other deep soils where
there is amoisture arising from great depths
the Summer fallow will hold it from evapor-
ating, and accumulate enough to make a
marked difference in the crop in favor of fal-
lowing. The fallacy about the great advaal-
tage of s'resing the soil,'; and another of
the soil "drawing moisture from the air."
we are prepared to combat, and can give to.
them little weight in forming conclusions.
Experience and science are alike opposed to
such theories. We are doing we'll when we
so cultivate the soil as to prevent the least
possible loss OF moisture from the soil tothe
air.
The fact is, we have to depend upon what
moisture there is stored in the soil for our
crops, and we should see that sufficient
amount is stored there to produce a crop,
and then SO cultivate the surface soil as to
prevent its escape into the air.
On soils that can be irrigated, or that are
furnished with abundant moisture from be-
low, as bottom lands are, it matters not 80
much what is the method of cultivation, so
long as the soil is not ploughed while too
wet, OR allowed to bake-Calitornia Agricul-

ways watching to make the best use of the
productive power of their lands and animals,
just as the merchant watches for new ways
TO dispose of his goods at a profit. sa
A hardware dealer INA western New York

fastened three wires to the edges of one,
hung it out in front Of his store, and in less
than a week wire which was dead property

This is the way merchants succeed. They
foster every demand and excite new de-
nands in every way they can. The farmer
ingenuity. He needs to look more closely
into the desires Of other people, and to turn
every whim and taste of consumers to his
profit. The more thought and study he
gives to his operations will not only improve
them the more, but people will see that he
is busy, progressive man land he will learn
that people have handles by which ne can
turn them to advance himself. The farmer
needs closer contact with the world; he
needs to understand it better, and then he
will be prepared to move at the head Of af-
fairs and use both his ingenuity and strength
to secure business advantages, as manutac-
turers and spectators now use theirs at his
expense. F
And the farmer can be- better business
man, generally, in the conduct of his farm.
AS we remarked, not many weeks ago,
farmers have crippled themselves too much
by robbing the land to support wildcat en-
terprises. It is from money which ought to
have been invested in gaining larger crops,
that great monopolies have been able to
grow. Here is a business principle that
shossld be better understood. The merchant
thinks money well spent which is used to
advertise his business and draw purchasers.
The manufacturer spends money on new
machinery because he can get larger returns
and make more in the same time. The farm
should be business enterprise to be inn
proyed.in a like spirit. 1t should be more
business in itself, and not piece OF ground
from which everything is to be taken, and
to be left in the end as barren as deserted
ore bed The experience of our best farmers
teaches thab this is commercial principle
which may be successfully applied to the
land, and, like man who builds mansion
