ORIGINALITY IN FARMING.

Thore are two ways in which farmer
may manage his business. He may observe
definite rules without regard to vary ing cir
cumstances, or he may b, guided by his
own Judgment and regulate his own opera
tions according to conditions. There is a
tendency among large class OF farmers to
be guided by maxims which they have re-
coived from their fathers. They plant
their corn and wheat as nearly as possible
on stated days or at stated times of tho
moon. They hoe and cultivate their corn
a given number of tunes without much re-
gard to he condition of the soil, and in all
the routine of farm work they keen as

When we consider the variety of circum-
stances under which the same crops ar.
raised in different localities, it is evident
that no rules can be given for their man.
agcment that it will be best to follow in all
cases. There arc fields of corn that will
thrive and produce well with very little
culture, while others will be nearly ruined
by quack grass and thstles, without very
thorough cultivation. Sometimes the weeds
are of such kind that smoothing harrow

destroying them, while at others the time
honorcd corn plow is the only instrument
that will prove cffectual. Unless the farmer
uses Judgment in the management of his
corn he will not alway, get it at the least
cost per bushcl.
The same may be said of every depart
mcnt of farm labor. The old rules may bo
safe, but there is sometimes better way.
and the farmer who can look beyond, and
see when his practicc--and it may be va
ricd with profit-has an advantage over
others. There is as much opportunity for
making good results in raising our crops by
taking advantage of circumstances, as there
is in selling them by taking advantage of
the markets. 1t is often noticed that the
farmers who do the most hard work do not
always succeed the best
This is because they do too little thinking.
The question should always be: "How can
[ apply my labor so that it will be most ef-
icctual!' Many farmers accomplish more
with their heads than with their hands.
There is an opportunity for originality
not only in the management of crops, but
as well in all the appurtenanccs of the farm

SMALL FARMS.

Those farmers who find themselves DOS.
scsscd of more land than they can utilize
should now be making arrangements to dis
pose Of their surplus acres to those who are
willing and able to bring order out of cha.
os, to make fertile fields out of deserted
plantations and uncultvated wastes. Small
farms well titled make happy and prosper
Gus people, for the small farmer, if he pos
sesscs ordinary intelligence and experience,
Is always in easy circumstances. lie cult
Yates every foot Of his land without cx-
hausting his accumulations. He is con-
stantly reaching out for more, but continues
to make the best Of what he has.
The nerof large farm is often crushed
by its magnitude. lie cannot cultivate its
entire area and the useless acres sap his vital
ity, expcnd his means and plunge him into
debt
Taxes eat up his sustcnancc by slow but
sure approaches.
The true disposition to make of large
body of land is to sell alternate farms to
actual settlers, at moderate rates, and upon
easy and accommodating terms This in
crcases the value of tho remaining farms.
