TOO MUCH LAND.
lAmsrican Cul,lvAtor.I

IAmerican CullvAtor
The tendency of American farmers is to 60
quire extent of land entirely ont Of proper.
Gion to their means of ion proving it Thousands
Of herd-woEkng ooltiVators of the soil keep
themselves in q state of poverty and distress
through the insane idea of owning large farms
or Of spending their entire capital in the pur.
chase of adjoining acres, whom those already
possessed are upproductive through the lack
Of means for their proper cultivation. Such
an ipjudicious course of controlling large areas
by men Of limited means, 10 ae though an indi-
viduAl should buy a wagon for service before
he could command the price Of q horse to draw
1t; as though q merchant should invest his ali
in o warehouse, show case, counters and sigus,
with nothing left to purchase stock of mer-
chandise; as though a railroad corporation
should expend its entire capital stock and
rails, sieepers and spikes, in the end finding
itself unable to obtain he rolling stock-the
engines, freight and passenger cars.
What does it avail 8 man to own two or
tEree hundred acres of improved land, if the
deed bAs cost him all the means at his COM
mand, or even worse, If he HAS been obliged to
make partial payments in notes secured by
mortgAgei How is property obtained at suoh
cost TO increase the comfort, happiness, or
prosperity of the purchaser. Large farms,
broad acres, herds of cattle and hocks of sheep
are perfectly legitimate for those who possess
sufficient capital to pay for them, but for him
who has but limited means at his command, 9

Any farmer, who in his ambition to control q
large farm. devotes bis entire capital to it's
purchase, thereby enslaves himself for many
years, perhaps for life. He is obliged to use
his credit in the purchase Of cattle, sheep and
swine, paying far more than their cash value,
and without that choice of selection, which q
vel. filed purse will always command he lie
unable to ditch, drain or fertilize his acres az
his best judgment would dictate simply be-
cause he has no means with which to hire the
necessary labor he has Q milestone around his
neck, in the shape Of increased taxes, and the
care Of long linee of fences; he can only half

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.

BLACKBERRY PuDDING-Makea bat
ter of a quart of flour, pints OF mlik'
and eggs; then stir in 3 pints of black
berries, having first stewed them with
little sugar Bake it, and eat with
whatever sauce you may fancy. Do not
forget to add pinch of salt. Wine
sauce Is best favored with nutmeg.
Many persons prefer this pudding to
one made of plums, especially when
made of fresh blackberries.
CURRANr JELLY-You must put the
currants In stone jar and set them in
an iron pot, with water sufficient to
reach the top of the jar without its run
ming in while boiling. After they are
done, mash and strain the juice from
them. Add pound of white sugar to
pint of juice, but first put the sugar
into the kettle with little water, and
let it boil to very thick sirup; then add
the Juice, and let the whole boil very
rapidly and without stirring for 20 min
utes.
juice, pounds of sugar, tablespoon
fuls of salt, tablespoonfuls of black
pepper, a little horse-radish, onions
chopped into the very smallest pieces.
Pound the spices. Boil well for about
hours, being very careful to stir from
time to time, that it may not stick to
the bottom of the kettle and burn. Just
before taking off, add quart of good
sharp vinegar. Bottle, cork tightly, and
keep in a cool place.
BLACKBERRY SIRUP.-TO 2 quarts OF
black berry juice add ] ounce of CHINA
mon, ] ounce of nutmeg, ounce
of allspice, and of an ounce of pow
dered cloves. Boil these together, so as
to compound the spices with the juice
of the berries and to preserve it. While
hot, add pint of best French brandy
Sweeten with loaf-sugar to suit the taste
Three pounds will probably be right fol
this quantity. Bottle it, and exclude
the air. Excellent in summer com

Repeat this process until the peaches ar

and if the slightest fermentation occurs
scald the fruit once more, skimming of
the juice and scum that rises to the sur

Left Behind.

We started in the morning-a morning full of
glee,
All In the early morning. a eoodly company,
And some were full of merriment, and all
were kind and dear;
But the others have pursued their way. and
left me sitting here
Ny feet were not so fleet as theirs, my cour-
age soon was gone,
And so Jagged and fell behind, although
they cried, Come onP'
They cheered me and they pitied me, but one
by one went by,
For the stronger must outstrip the weak:
there Is no remedy.
Some never looked behind, but smiled, and
swiftly, hand in hand,
Departed with q strange sweet joy / could
not understand;
know not by what silver streams their roses
bud and blow,
But am glad-oh, very glad--they should be
happy SO.
And some they went companionless, yet not
alone. IL seemed,
FOR there were sounds of rustling wings, and
songs-or else we dreamed;
And n glow from lights invisible to us lit up
the place,
And Hinged as if with glory each dear and
parting face.
So happy. happy. did they look. as one by one
they went,
That we. who missed them sorely, were fain
to be content;
And i, who sit the last of all, left far behind
alone,
Can not be sorry for their sakes, but only for
my own
My eyes seek out the different paths by which
they went away,
And oft Wish to follow, but oftcner wish to
stay;
For fair as maythe new things be, the farther
things they know,
This Is a pleasant resting place, pleasant
place also.
There are flowers for the gathering which
grow my path anear,
The skies are fair. and everywhere the sun is
warm and clear;
I may have missed the wine of life, the strong
wine and the new,
honey-dew.
So when turn my thoughts from those who
shared my dawn of day,
Ny fresh and joyous morning prime, and now
are passed away.

To sit thus in the afternoon, alone and left
