The Way Out of Debt.

Farmers must bear in mind there
is no way but a hard one out OF
debt. Signing and wishing to be
out Of debt will never GET one out.
If man is In miFe he will remain
there till he dies, unless he strug
giles to get on hard soil. To get
out of debt, one must sell more
than he buys. He must make his
income greater than his outgees.-
He must earn more money than he
spends. He must receive more
than he pays out He must so
manage to lessen his indebtedness
somewhat every year. He must be
economical-not extravagant. He
must certainly know at the end of
the year what his receipts and ex-
penSes have been He can tell
what the future prospects will be of
becoming free man. A man who
is indebt is not free man. He
belongs to his creditors, and the
deeper his Indebtedness, the worse
his slavery. He is lot a happy
man. His mind is harrassed to
meet his obligations. If he fails to
do it, be suffers indescribable mis-
cry. So, farmers, be on the safe
side. Manage to get out of debt.
Keep out. Save. Economic. Mar
ket everything you can when 1t is
in the best state for market. Sell
this year more than you buy.

Succession Of Garden Vegetables.

Many persons plant all their gar
den seeds at one time. 1t is not
the right way. 1t gives one "a
feast or a famine" Take green
peas. There should be enough
planted to give the family a supply
while they are in season for eating,
which is about two weeks When
that season is over, a new supply
should be coming on-and thus
continuing all summer. The same
should be the case with green corn
and many other vegetables. BY
planting garden seeds every two
weeks throughout the spring and
early summer, nice, fresh vegeta-
bles may be put on the table every
day. 1t is true, it takes 8 little
more labor and care and watehtul-
ness to do all this, but then it pays.
Farmers and their wives and their
boys and girls work hard, have
hearty appetites; deserve good
things TO eat, and they can have
them and enjoy them, if they wish
to. But il takes a little more work.

Grass is King.

In its direct money value, and in
all its collateral and indirect bene
fits, grass is worth more TO the
world than all the cereal crops com
bined. Its direct is nothing in
comparison to it's indirect value in
the influences it has in preserving
the fertility of our farms by its
manural wealth in all its FORMS
No man can thrive on a farm-no
farm can be self supporting where
grass is wholly neglected, or advan-
tage is not taken OF stock raised on
other grass farms. The old Belgian
proverb is true-'.No grass, no cat
tie; no cattle, no manure, no man
ure, no crops"
1t is supposed by many that only
such soil as is not tit for cultivation
in the cereals or roots should be
devoted to grass. This is q mis-
take. We can afford to take our
best soils for the production of this
crop, and this is the real plan of
bringing them up 70 the highest
point of fertility.
