and these, by the magic transmutation
of trade, are changed into groceries or
other means of living Aside from
these articles of export, as we may call
them, he grows, for home consump-
ton. clover, hay beets for stock, gar
den vegetables and small fruits.
This diversified industry requires
business ability of the highest and
most energetic character, yet we have
not named all that the thorough busi-
ness farmer has to accomplish and at
tend to. He often has on his hands
and mind the erection of farm build
ings and the prosecution of other farm
Improvements, such as fencing, ditch
ing, clearing new lands, etc. Are we
not right then in saying that the abil-
ity and tact to manage all this diversi-
fed industry well and successfully is
OF more Importance than almost any
other advantage? 1t is only, as We
believe, through diversified system
of farming that a steady and sure
progress in wealth may be relied upon.
If IA farmer depends mainly on wheat,
how often he loses and is set back a
year or two, we need not tel our read
ers who have tried that system. If
he relies altogether Oh hogs, or indeed
upon any one production, he fails as
often as he realizes. In the general
business of farming then there is no
steady advance, only as the farmer
produces everything that bis market
will pay him the cash for. The greater
the diversity of products that he can
sell readily the better will he prosper
if he produces all. To do it we know
a farmer must have knowledge, he
must have business ability, he must
have energy. If he is ignorant he
cannot do it; if he is lazy he cannot
succeed: if he has no business tact he
cannot get along with much. But he
can acquire these qualifications. De

The Way to Cut Flowers.

The florists employ a pair of scis-
sorS, with which the stems are severed.
But writer in the american Gdrden
says that the flowers should never be
pulled otf-nor should the stem De
severed with scissors, but cut off with
a sharp knife. The best time for cut
ting flowers is Immediately after sun
down, unless to preserve them from a
storm, which would otherwise destroy
or prevent their being cut in the even
ing On cloudy days the time of cut
ting is a matter of much less differ
ence. The explanation of these rules
as to, the proper time for cutting is
found in the state Of the sap at differ
ent times of the day and night. From
the earliest dawn till shutdown, the
leaves are actively drawing upon the
roots, and the sap is flowing freely.
After that time the leaves are nearly
dormant until morning. The plant is
then resting, is asleep. A flower cut
in the sunshine will wilt at once, and
if not put in water will quickly perish,
whereas, if cut at sunset, it will re-
main fresh all night. In cool place
it will not appear to change for long
time, even if not put in water; yet, in
a close, hot room it will fade in an
hour. The usual manner is to cut all
flowers with Il long stem. Unnatural
us it may seem, the true way for the
greater part of our tlowers) is to re-
move them without a stem. Roses
should be cut with a long stem--the
longer the better, provided other buds
are not destroyed. The carnalion and
all plants that bear their flowers III
clusters should be removed without
stems. The heliotrope should be al
lowed very short stem, and the YER
bena should only be cut as far down
as the first leaf. a bit of wire or a
match stick will serve for a stem if it
is desired to make of these stemless
flowers bouquet. If they are to be
placed in shallow disheS-the best way
to display them-the stems are Of no
consequence. Do not collect flowers
III large bundles, or tie them together,
as these processes also hasten decay
