GO, nUY A FARM.

No man has struggled and toiled
twenty years who has not learned how
invalu4ble becomes money as an adju-
want Of labor. But money itself is
the least efficient of the servitors OF
tireless industry. It is worthless when
unused, and If used is exceedingly apt
10 take wings of bankruptcy or fraud
and ay away, like q bright deity, as
misers deem it. Therefore industry
wisely seeks the ownership OF land,
and, after all, this is the best possible
property. A little farm is the
choicest co-lsborer q laboTer can
have. It cannot DO stolen.
Thieves and swindlers are lmpotent for
mischief and no property owner is SO
nearly king as the unIndebted farmer.
Life assurance is so infinitely less trust
worthy and 80 ruInous tc the common
wealth, promoting idleness and taking
from the State tue hard-earned gains
Of the people for investment abroad,
that the law should prohibit the opera
fion and existence of these foreign
corporations within the State. There
Is no acquisition which so blesses alike
the individual and society as that of a
farm and house and garden. A
few acres are the surest and
best workers. Their labors are
fireless. They never rest. They
give plenty when sickness and age
come upon us, themselves never grow
ing old, and only more valuable with
age. Il is not difficult to become a
land owner 10 Texas. Steady indus.
tiy IN any avocstion will soon enable
the least capable, where realty costs so
little, to accomplish the purpose, and
yet IL grows in value, when cared for
by Industry, with marvellous rapidity.
The poorest waif thrust upon the bo-
som OF this great commonwealth can
have farm almost for the asking, and
yet multitude; of ignorant wanderers
haunt the purlieus of cities and towns
and starve in listless idleness about
whisky shops dreaming of fat money,
while trifing sum will give to the
poorest a farm in Texas and
the States organic code inter-
poses and no earthly power or
misfortune can deprive the owner
Of his home. He can render it inesti-
tmablY valuable and wife and daugh-
ters may make IL very paradise, and
yet while he and they live this home,
stead is their OVID. The law itself
cannot eject them. Every man and
boy, under the peculiar laws of Texas,
should be landowner. No one can
be perfect citizen who is not bound
TO the soil by those lndissoluble ties,
which the trainers of each government
of Texas have recognized as the only
eure basis of patriotism. Where land
costs soiittle and where it is the beat
security for comfort in old aye, where
organic law pronounces it the surest
guarantee of good citizenship and of
patriotic action, there is surely every
possible inducement for each inhabi-
sant 10 become a landowner.

The following calculations appear in

2lst is considered late this year. and it
is I3 DAYS after the mean date, but it is to
be remarked that in no year since the
introduction of the Gregorian calender
into England has the festival occurred
on the latest possible date; April 20,
though in two years-l76l ana lolo-lt
fell on March %, which is the other limit
In 1886 Easter Sunday will fall on April
% in the new or Gregorian style, for the
first time since the year 1874, or IL years
before this style was accepted In England
The only occasion since the reformation
of the calendar by Pope Gregory Kill
upon which Easter has fallen on the last
possible date was in 1866, and after 1885,
this will not again occur till l943.

man with their faces so tightly glued tO

Oats for Fodder.

One of the best ways to reinforce the
hay-mow is sow goodly tsurface with
oats and cut the crop when stalks are
still green and full of juices. The time
to harvest, when sown for this purpose,
is Just as the sap is about to leave the
stalk and concentrate in the berry. This
is done quickly when the movement Is
once begun, SO you must watch the crop
sharply and be ready to start the scythe
to day. Cut and cured in this manner
you will average two tons to the acre.
and the stock will eat it with great avid
ity. 1t is very rich in nutrition and
should be fed with judgment. For colts
and brood mares no feeding can be bet
ter. If you wish to fatten stock with 1t
run it through a machine and sprinkle
cracked rye on it. reinforced with slight
dash of corn meal. How their coats
