MAKE FARMING A BUSINESS.

The reason why so many men fail
to make farming soccess is simply
because they fail to make it busi-
ness. They at once conclude that
farming doesn't pay" and then go
to work in such a manner as to utter
ly exclude the possibility of it ever
paying. AS a rule the successful
merchant follows no other pursuit
but that of trade. The lawyer or
physician who sttains to eminence in
his profession devotes his time, ener-
gies and talent to that profession.
The artisan who becomes skilled in
his calling makes diligent use Of his
time, and works for the accomplish
ment of a single purpose, the mastery
OF his loved art. Not only does this
theory hold true to all other branches
of business, but it holds true Of farm
ing. The successful farmer does
nothing for livelihood but farm if.
1t he has money he invests it in a wav
that will improve his farm. He in
forms himself as to his business and
goes to work in an intelligent man
ner. Upon such farms no weeds
stand as high as a mans head; nor
are fences neglected, buildings dilapi-
dated, farming implements left yx-
posed to the weather. and stock nm
shelted and uncared for, but every
thing denotes thrift and enterprise.
1t is really painful to 90 about the
country and observe the number of
neglected farms. Pigs, geese, ducks
and cattle are allowed almost unlimi-
ted range. Weeds render the door
yard, the orchard, the meadows even
unsightly. The good wife, in addi-
ton to her household cares. must
mix the COWS, feed the pigs, and do
the ''chores' generally. But where
is the owner: Where and how does
he spend his time? He is across the
way hanging on his neighbours fence
talking politics, or he is in the near
est store or blacksmith shop ta!kino
gossip. Perhaps he is inspired with
desire to make some money. and is
out ''huekstering," or, what is less
audablc, selling a "patent right
that may be useful or not, lust ais il
happens. But while he Is earning q
few dollars away from home, MANY
dollars are being lost at home. be-
cause it is time to do spring planting,
summer harvesting or tall sowing
thus the years are passed, and SYM
pathizlng ones remark: HE is a
clever man, but somehow don't GET
along in the world" and all because
he owns farm, has business, and
yet fails.

EDITOR OF THE RECORD Living as
have for the last eight years in Nebraska, l
have learned to love the free and independent
life of the prairie.
How often receive letters asking the fol-
Living questions Do the Indians kill many
people out herea Do buffaloes run around ?
and other questions of this strain, over which
we take a hearty laugh. Instead of pictur-
ing in your mind what the above questions
convey, imagine one of the prettiest coun-
tries man ever set eyes on. Nature did not
give us natural forests, but a gentle rolling
prairie +; but men have planted groves on ev-
cry farm, and in Summer nature looks its
grandest. The fruits of our country have TAX
en- the premium against the older and East
ern States ; and Instead of Indians and buffa-
Ices. we have school houses, churches, and So
ciety that old Jersey might be proud Of. We
have soil that can produce any cereal You
can mention. Farms can be purchased from
five to ten dollars per acre. What more could
man wish l cannot imagine. Come and
see and we will make you welcome.

COMMON CouNcrL--SpecsaI Meeting, FEB
25.-The meeting was held to take action on
the proposed improvement on Union street.
&c.
Mr.. Jos. Smith reported $50 received by
Small Shows Committee for licenses.
A communication was presented from prop
erty holders, authorizing A. w. Angel to i'm
prove Union street, between Church and Cor
yell, at the rate of one dollar per lineal foot
front, one-half of said expense to be paid by
the city, the other half by the property own
ers. Signed by w. v. Cooley, II. c. Hooker,
Benz. Rice, j. M. Lewis, A. III. Hoicombe, L.
S. Holconibs, r. Fl. Van Horn. Laid on table.
1t was ordered that the four crossings at
the intersection of Union and Coryell SITS. be
relaid Gin Case the matchmaking is done)
with the old stones, and that third course
be laid if the property owners will bear the
additional expense.
It was ordered that in case the proposed i'm
provement on this street be carried ont, the
earth that is excavated be used to fill up 9TH
er streets, where necessary, under the direc-
ton of the Street Committee.
1t was ordered that before the contract for
matchmaking part of Union Street be entered
into, the petitioners be requested to advertise
for proposals for tile work, in order that the
work may be done at the lowest possible cost.
The Laws and Ordinance Committee re-
ported on second reading, an ordinance ehti-
tied " An Ordinance making an appropriation
for the improvement of certain streets, :"
which was amended, passed and ordered pub

Mayor Solliday asked Council for informa-
ton as to whether the contractor for remov-
ing the city garbage has ever filed bond for
the performance of his duties, numerous COM
plants having been made to him respecting
the non-fu6llment of the contract. II said
bond has been aled with the city he proposes
to enter suit against the contractor.
In reply, DR.. Rice, Chairman of the Street
Committee, stated that no such bond has
been drawn up, but that the usual agreement
was made as has been the custom heretofore.
On motion of Mr. Barron, Council adj

PARAGRAPHS FOR THINKING PERSONS
There has never been a critical case Of hard
times in the country. from the earliest period,
when people did not think an Issue of cheap
money would relieve them. And whenever
the question has been made popular issue,
the idea has succeeded in winning popularity.
But the experiment has always ended in dis
appointment, modification and ruin. There
seems to be great probability of our having
another chapter of this experience.
Il is not more money that is wanted, but
more employment. Cobbett was once invited
to go to public meeting Of workingmen 70
hear recital of their wants. He said he had no
occasion. He knew already perfectly well.
What they wanted was "a belly full Of bread
and meat, and good glass of beer to wash it
down." II Is the bread and meat that is
wanted BY all of us. Let Congress show the
way of getting that, and cease humbu3ging
about cheap money.
Ithas always been favorite continuance Of
short sighted and unprincipled rulers, when
money was scarce with them, to debase the
coinage. But 1t never did any good that was
not promptly counterbalanced by the evil of
it. If the dollar was reduced in value one
half and still called and declared dollar, 1t
was instantly found that It would buy but
half dollars worth, and thus the object of
its issue was at once frustrated We may
make ninety-cent dollars till we are black in
the face, but not one of them will buy hun
dred cents worth of anything
If the silver bin passes, as is proposed, we
demonetize gold, and permanently throw it
out of circulation in the country. We thus
lose so much money. There are thousands OF
millions of it in general circulation in the
world, and we might have our share of it cir
culating in the channels of trade all over the
country if we were not so foolish as to legis-
late in way to keep it out. Why not legls-
late SO as to keep both gold and silver side by
side in circulation The silver men say
there is great objection to demonstrating sill
yer, because it lessons the quantity of money
in use by the people. But thcre is hundred
times as much gold as silver money, and there
fore there is a hundred times as good reason
against demonetizing gold as against demon
etizing siver.--Neso York Sam
