Wheat Growing Unprofitable

The Wisconsin Jefferson county,
Union goes for wheat farming rough
shod. There is seme truth 10 the first
proposition, and the latter is essen
TALLY correct. 1t says /:
"Wheat-growing has nearly ruined
this section of Wisconsin 1t has de-
stroyed the fertility of one of the
best soils that ever the sun shone on.
1t has introduced vast army of in
sects which now stand ready to de-
stroy other crops. Worse than all,
it has struck the farmer himself With
mental blight. Like intemperance,
it steals away his brains, making him
totally oblivious to his own folly,
The culture of grass and corn, and
the raising of beef, pork, butter and
cheese, is the remedy for our impov-
erished farmers. Dairymen are get
ting rich, grain-raisers are getting
poorer every year. The profits that
come from grass-culture are not ex-
cessive, but they are sure, and be-
sides the farmer is not selling out his
farm by the bushel."

The Value of the Sabbath.

Macauley, the great historian and
statesman, made a speech in 1853 in
the British Parliament, from which we
extract his remarks on the usefulness
of the Sabbath. He says:
"We are not poorer, but richer, be-
cause we have for many ages, rested
from our labor ono day in seven
That day is not lost. While industry
is suspended, while the plow lies in
the furrow, while the exchange is ST.

factory, process is going on quite az
important to the wealth of nations as
any process which is performed on
more busy days. Man, the machine

with which all The contrlvances ofthe
Watts and the Arkwrights are worth
less, is repairing and winding up, so
that he returns to his lahors on the
Monday with clearer intellect, with
livelier spirits, and renewed corporal
vigor,"

London, and bid fair to. become ia
vorite in New York. But the wo-
man who could earn her thousand
dollars a week did not save cent
they all seem to think that their popu-
larity will last forever when she
was taken sick she was forgotten.
Her little money went, then her
clothes, until finally she had not as
much as pair of stockings, and died
in this great city for want of food and
medicine. Two years ago thousands
of girls, as they saw this beautiful wo-
man clad in velvet and loaded with
Jewels envied her. There isn't a shop
girl in the city who has not led more
happy life, and very few but who will
die better death. 1t is not all gold
that glitters.
SOCIETY AND ADJUSTMENTS.
Despite the snow, and despite the
hard times, the fashionable end OF
New York has oatdone itself this
winter. Balls and receptions have
been more common than ever before,
and more money than ever has been
spent upon dress and adornment of
house and person. The fact is, there
are few hundred families who are
SO rich that cutting off half their in
comes makes no difference whatever,
and they feel sort ofpride in throw
ing away money when everybody else
is short of it. "What odds is it,"
said one young fellow in company of
a party just given, the wife of the
giver having sported 100000 worth
of diamonds, whether they have half
million a year or million" But
the amusement that draws their sup
port from the merely comfortable
classes, are suffering. The theaters
are drawing no money, the actors are
getting no pay, and bankruptcy is
staring the professions in the face.
The newspapers are running very
close to shore, everything that can be
cut off is cut off. Only the very rich
can afford to be jolly, and they are
making the season unusually gay, for
very spite it would seem.
THE WEATHER
Is abominable. The January thaw
is on US, and the lower part of the
city is one lake of slush. Cellars are
full of water, and the streets are i'm
passabe. The fall Of Snow was i'm
mense, and as none of it has been re-
removed il makes the streets fearfully
disagreeable,

There are now large numbers of
Chinese in San Francisco in desti.

eaten. The Chinese companies, I'M
