WHY Farming Does Not PAY.

The impression has gone abroad
throughout the lard, that farming
does not pay, and this impression is
fast gaining ground among the farm
crs especially of the South.
Bnt the question may be asked,
whether the waStefnl and extrava-
CANT method Of farming, together
with the inattentinn to business, and
the trusting of work too much to
hired labor, has not something to do
in the matter. We could cite many
instances where farmers who have at
tended strictly to business and prac.
ticed economy, have made motley
since the war. and have denied them
selves none of the substantial and
solid comforts of life.
There is a great need among farm
rrs of mole accurate observation and
experiment. 1t is no wonder we
have conflicting views on this impor.
tant subject, when theories are bniIt
npon mere "gucss work" and conclu.
sious arrived at form false premises.
4 good deal that makes up the cur.
rent reading in our best agricultural
papers, is opinion rather than stnb-
born fact. Some farmers are incapa.
Die OF making accurate experiments,
because they will not weigh all the
circumstances connected with them
and because they allow prejudice to
warp facts. They do not seek to
learn truth for its own sake, but are
looking only for those points which
seem to fortify their preconceiyed
opinions.
Now we believe the Grange is the
best school in which We can discuss
the all important question, does farm
ing pay and where we may lean
how to make farming pay.

Treatment of Chicken Cholera.

"When you see a chicken a little
droopy and its comb getting dark,
remove it at once and doctor it for
cholera; its discharges are green, and
if allowed to run loose would spread
the disease. As preventative, | use
Il handful Of salt twice week in a
wash basin full of bran mixed with
little meal, and three times a week
give corn at night, on which pp1r a
little coal oil, just enough to coat
every grain and no more. MY neigh.
bors all around have been losing their
chickens, both yonng and old, and
I've lost hut one, and that was one
of my imported Brahmas; she was

fore ! knew it was cholera; none
have died since. Clean ont your

AN1ONGtl1c, FARMERS.
Brains in Farming.

There is scarcely a quality Of &C
tivity, Intelligence or skill which
gives success to business men but
could be proftab|y employed on the
farm. A few Illustrations of this
"hlain work in tarming' will present
the matter in stronger light. A
poor farm implement may not only
consume the time necessary to re.
place 1t by a better, but may also
hazard the entire crop by its failure
at the rrqnired time. In the sclcc.
ton of animals for the formation of a
herd. where can greater skill possibly
We exercised. All these points re-
1uire foresight, Judgment and wis
dom, which no man ought to deS-
pi>r. And again, the tanner being
more Il seller than buyer, it is this
capacity he is called upon to excr-
else m ore than IN ordinary degree of
commercial skill. An intelligent and
successful farmer ought to bc, and
indeed most frequently is, man of
decker thought and penetration than
an equally successful S'opkceper.
The farmer draws his knowledge
direct from natuIrS storclinnsc and
traces the commerce bearing upon
farm products to its source. He
should be acquainted with the crop
>tanin. IT all the leading countries
Of the world, its probahlc results as
affecting that Of his own country,
and the consequent plicts which
should rule the markets. Can there
be any question then. rs to the fact.
that brains is necessary in farming?
And that no profession or business
offers greater chances and opportnni-
tics for the practice and development
of all those qualities which combine
to make the perfect man?
When farmers begin to look upon
their vocation, as requiring brains
and plenty of them, they will cease
to envy the merchant, the manutnc-
tnrpr and other callings. BY the use
of intelligence, energy and perSevcr-
ance. they will soon assume and Sns.
tain themselves in their proper place
among their f.llow-men.

Gapes in Chicks.

The gapes originate from a peculiar
louise, which infeSts the heads of
young chicks, depositing it's eggs in
the n"strils Of the chicks, from
wbichNre hatched worms, which
crawl into aud attach themselves to
the wiudpipe Of the chicks. The
worms are red aud when full grown
a'e about three quarters of Al inch
long, as thick as a No. 6 needle, ta
perins ut the tail and forking near
tho upper extremity; the branch
which is sent off terminating in a
sucker for adhesion to the windpipe,
whilst the mouth terminates the
principal trunk.
A common remedy is to introduce
into the birds windpipe feather, or
seed stalk Of bluegrass with the
seeds stripped off, turn it several
times to disIodge the worms, which
are either brought ont by the feather
or conghed up by tie chick. The
bluegrass stalk is the best, as there is
less liability Of sutf"cating the bird
during the operation.
1" prevent the gapcs, make an
ointment as fellows: One ounce
mercnrial ointment, one ounce pure
lard, and one-half ounce crude pe-
troIeum mix thoroughly, and apply
to the heads of the chicks when ia.
ken from the nest. Repeat the ap-
pl'catlon at two weeks old. The
ointment kills the lice.

Mobile Chiffon business.

Last week witnessed great activity in the cot
ton business of this city. For the week ending
Friday. the 2lst. receipts at all United States
ports were 232.O52. At Mobile. for the same
week. receipts were 1858 bales, the largest
for any week since the war. and. perhaps, for
any week before or since 1860.
For the first three days of last week, the re-
ceipts were 10 asa bales the largest for any pre-
vious corresponding time.
The receipts at Mobile yesterday were 1919
bates, the largest yet reported for any one day.
But for the failure Of two boats to arrive ycster-
day morning which are usually quite regular.
the receipts for the day would have footed up
5000 bales
Our total receipts at Mobile to Friday. the 21st
we're 5000 bales short Of last year to same date
Since Friday we have gained on this week 903s
bales reducing the deficiency to date this year
as compared with last year to 1e, 1856 bales. From
present appearances we will hold on to this
gain.-[Mobile Register, 25ih.

ny Sea and River from New York to St
Louis.
[St. Louis Globe Democrat, 25th inst.

The effects Of opening UP a permanent and
available channel for all purposes of trans
portation, from New Orleans to the sea through
the jetties, are already beginning to produce
practical results favorable to the commerce of
ST. Louis. which will soon be made to appear
more prominent as they shall be developed in
the early future. Heretofore the railroads have
invariably diseriminated against St. Louis
whenever Chicago demanded the sacrifice of
our interests. which was nearly all the time,
but there Is a competitive route now open to the
East which will render this city measurably in
dependent OF the railway magnate. and enable
our shippers to have something to say in adjust
ing equitable rates of freight on through goods.
We are led to these remarks from having heard
Of dry goods from New York for the house of
Dodd. Brown L. Co.. VIII ch were shipped by
steamship to New Orleans. whence they
came by steamer to this port. The time con-
sumed In transit by these goods was sixteen or
seventeen days, but under ordinary circum-
stances this is two or three days longer than
would be required. which places this route at
no particular disadvantage in point Of time. as
compared with that taken by the railroads for
the delivery of freight from the same point,
The rate Of freight on this shipment was not
made public, but it must have been. at figures
which justified the adoption of the outside
route, and VIII. no doubt. furnish a lever with
which to handle competitive trade. when it be-
comes necessary to enter the list with our mer-
camille rivals throughout the valley and
especially our lakeside, neighbor. or course
shipments, which will follow, it the great water
route proves the cheapest as we have always
contended, and believe it will. The grain of the
West and Northwest must go ultimately through
the same economical channel which brings the
goods from the East to exchange for it.

November Losses by Fire.
49,. Louis Republican,


Reliable statistics show, that the loss by fire
In the United s ates and Canada for the month
Of November. 1877. reaches the enormous sum
of s7.2i6ooO. The losses for November. 1876.
were IS, 081, 100 The increase for November,
1877, over that Of the corresponding month of
the previous year. was $2.154,9OO nearly 80 per
cent. The losses to insurance companies for
November OF this year amount to $845. 100,
while those for November. 1876 were 81, b96. 100,
an increase OF e2,249,O00, nearly 100 per cent.
In the face of these facts there has been a
Emaniaeal reduction In rates, which, Ii persisted
in, cannot do otherwise than bring ruin to
stockholders and policyholders. The low rates
and the indecent scramble for business
by reckless underwriters, have produced
their legitimate fruit of incendiarism.
II has been easy for dishonest parties
to get over insurance at a omparatively trifing
cost, and the companies have actually paid a
premium for incendiarism. which has brought
disaster and sometimes ruin to companies do
ing q conservative business, and to parties who
are not insured at all. The underwater who
issues policy upon property for more than its
value is as much a party to incendiarism as the
man who applies the torch, and should be held
liable. 1t Is no excuse that he did not know the
value Of the property or the amount Of the in.
suranoe. 1t Is his duty to know these facts. and
public policy demands that he should faithfully
discharge that duty. An insurance officer or
agent has no more right to issue policy in ex-
cess of the value Of the property and thus en-
danger the safety OF adjoining property. per-
haps whole square or an entire city. than he
has to start runaway team along a crowded
