The "Rural New Yorker" now
comes to US with 16 clean, neatly
printed pages, embellished with
fine illustrations and full of
scientific and practical agricul-
ture and literature. For the ag-
riculturist and the family circle
it is an Indispensable weekly
visitor. It's editor-in-chiefis the
celebrated horticulturist, A. S.
Fuller, associated with whom are
E. S. Carman and x. A. Willard.
while, as special contributors,
they are assisted by such men
as William Robinson, Charles
Downing, Chas. V. Riley, Thos.
Meehan, James Wick, and many
others of equal eminence in their
respective scientific and practi-
cal specialties. 1t keeps it's
moral tone to that high standard
which fits it for any family in the
land. The mother can rely upon
it to furnish household recipes
for daily use, pleasant stories
for leisure reading and excellent
moral entertainment for the chill
dren. The father may confident
ly look for the latest experiments
and discoveries in his daily avo-
cations accompanied by good
advice and carefully revised
markets, embracing nearly every
product for sale. In addition to
this its publishers, (the Rural

ment of their late increased pat
ronage, have reduced it's price to
only $3.50 a year. Send to them

UNLUCKY WITH SHEEp.-Onr
nelghbor is, so he tells us. Every
year his lambs die without any
apparent cause, and about the
time for shearing all his old
sheep seem to he sadly shedding
their wool. We understand some,
thing about our neighbours case.
He is one OF those shrewd farms
ers who understand how to raise
sheep without having them cost
a single cent. He leaves them
to take care of themselves, wint
er and summer, exposed alike to
the pltlless storms or the scorch>
ing sunshine. They take care of
themselves as best they can and
he's unlucky with Sheep

SHEEP WILL PAy-Shaon

SHEEP WILL PAY.-Sheep are
the best paying stock on the
farm, and it will be no fault Of
the Southern Farmer if flocks
are not more generally found
upon every plantation in the
south. Commence with native
and improve by crossing with
Southdown, or Cotswold, or Me-
rino, as may be preferred. Sell
no ewes. unless they are poor,
sickly or inferior. Feed. them
well and salt regularly, and You
will likely double your number
every year. They are fine scav-
engers, and crop down the weeds
in a manner pleasant to behold.
They clear the woods pasture
and devonr the sprouts of new
grounds. They cost little to keep
in good condition, and their flesh
is among the healthiest and most
nutritious food for man. The
wool makes warm clothing, and
every year large quantities have
to be imported from Europe to
supply the demand of American
manutacturs. AS enrichefs of
the soil, through their excre>
ments, they are almost invalua-
BILE to the poor>land farmers.
Every farm ought to have five
sheep for every acre it contains.
Let every southern farmer try q
few sheep, and those who already
have some, buy a few more.
They will pay Southern Farm.

Muscle VS.. Brains.

From the Rural Sun
The day has long past when
muscle ruled the world. Brain
is now the great motive power
of the age, and muscle but a
feeble instrument il bis hand.
We have worked too much and
thought too little. We have
worked and made our hands too
hard, and by not working it, have
left the brain to soft. We have
made the futile, foolish at tempt
to compete muscle against mind
in the great battle of life. A
wise man once wrote, 1.-THE wis
dom Of a learned man cometh
with opportunity of leisure:'
and in that little sentence alone,
is found food for reflection and
thought sufficient for a volumn
OF sermons, Unless farmers de-
vote more time to the exercise
and use of the brain and the
improvement of the mind, and
less to wearying and exhaustiDg
muscular labor, how can they
hope to compete successfully
with and against the vigorous
brain and cultivated mind of this
age, engaged in all other pro
fessions. Truly, it is not the
strong arm, the skilful hand and
the watchful eye alone, that will,
in these days, bring success to
the farmers. These are all need
full, but the cultivated, intelli~
gent, active brain, and the well
stored mind to plan and direct
them, is of ten times more im>
portance, and without which,
failure will ever be the result.
While we live in a money~mak-
ing, money>loving age, we every
where see the scheming brain
and active executive mind winn-
ing success and wearing the prize,
while the plodder is left fair in
the background, to nope along
in the old beaten track as daddy
did"
The locomotive, tearing along,
Earring the earth below, outstrip-
ping the wind above, and bearing
in its train the beauty, honor
and treasure of a State, repre-
sents bralnwork; while the dusty,
sweaty footman, YEARLY plod-
ding along, carrying a pack upon
his back, symbolizes muscle. The
self>raking reaper, driven with
ungloved and unsoiled hands,
sweeping down like fable the
golden grain, fifty represents
brains; the bowed husbandman,
painfully and slowly gathering
handsful of straw, and cutting
Ills grain with a sickle, tVpitieS
muscle. The steamboat, blow
ing its way with ease against the
strongest current of our swift
and noble rivers, is brains; while
the dug-out, slowly creeping
along the willow>margined shore
of our streams, propelled by the
old style Indian paddle, is mus
Gle. The sewing-machine, which
stitches faster than the eve can
follow and never eats nor tires.
is brains; while the weary, pale
and worn wife or feeble daupht-
er, painfully toiling over the
midnight task, "stitch, stitch.
STITCH" is muscle. How upe.
quail the task! How unrepaying
the feeble effort! When will orr
farmers realize and act upon
these facts as verities

The Southdown sheep are regard.
ed as the best mutton sheep in the
world, and clip from four to seven
pounds of wool. The C0tsw0ld,
with more carcass, and requiring
more feed, clip from eight to eigh-

do better in large fiocks, but their
wool is not quite as well adapted to
