The Young Farmers at the Pairs.

The use Of agricultural fairs as ednca-
tional agencies is not as generally appreci-
ated as | think it should be, especially by
young farmers Il is very gratifying to
notice some Of this class at our large fairs
each year making careful observations with
notebook aud pencil in hand, jotting down
whatever strikes them as most interesting
in each department of the exhibition.
Such young men will be sure to be found
hereafter nmoug the leaders ia agricul-
tnral progress. In no other way, at 40 lit
tie expense Of time and money, can q
young farmer gain SO much knowledge d.
reetly relating to his profession, as in the
right use Of bis opportunities at the fairs.
Bat "alas, lis true, and pity lis true"
that multitudes Of young men-even young
farmers--go to these fairs as they would
20 a circus, simply to sec the crowds aud
be amused We sec them thronging
around the horse ring for hours together,
watching the tsots or races and listening
20 the useless talk Of town loafers and
gamblers. They are also attnetea to the
various side shows BY the cheap musio
and noisy chatter, where time and money
are spent without any valuable return.
These young men, and such older farmers
as eaa see no real utility in agricultural
fairs, are sure TO be among the mere
drudges Of the profession They tell rs
that farm lie is very toilsome and mouot-
onens, and it they can gel away from home

The Scientific Farmer has very
sensible article on the advantages to rural
ncighborhood Of having merchants and
other well-to-do city people purchase
homes in their midst. These people, says
the writer, buy a suburban or moro remote
farm, bring TO il Of their wealth, remodel
the old house or build anew, tear down or
improve the old barns, and build from de-
signs Of city architect who understands
more Of harmonies than uses, stock with
improved breeds Of cattle, the latest style
Of implements in endless variety, and the
most expensive novelties from the seed
stores, and spend, perhaps without hope,
certainly without prospect, Of adequate
returns. Wherever fancy farms abound,
there may be observed continuous i'm
provement in their vicinity They serve
to change che habits Of life Of the farmer
and his family. The old inconvenient
methods Of housekeeping give place to a
more convenient system. The water from
the well is brought to the house, Instead
of being fetched in pail from the distant
well or spring, the woodpile is placed
under shed or into a compact pile, in
stead Of being heaped in the door-yard,
the surroundings to the buildings are
'sslicked up" flowers appear, perhaps in
the door.yard; the cattle are better fed,
the fences better repaired new crops and
new markets are sought, and expenditures
are Increased as the income grows larger
and il derived from more varied sources,
All this comes from the influence Of
the example Of the finely but expensiyely
maintained farm whereon neither expense
nor income is much considered, aud when
judged from business standpoint, must be
considered failure; judged from inhu-
ences on others, il is to be looked upon as
public benefaction.
There Is too prevalent feeling of
jealousy toward the fancy farmer on the
part Of the actual farmer, aud too little
appreciation Of the benefits which may be
and are derived from bis presence. Il is
to this leisure class Of farmers that agri-
culture must look for that progress which

a strong enthusiasm toward pursuit. This

ventors and dealers by furnishing oppor-
tunities for the trial Of new things which
promise well, and when through costly
failure an improvement Is secured, the
working farmer can secure the perfected
article. This class import foreign cattle
and test their adaptation to our needs
They introduce new fruits and improved
vegetables, which, il found deserving, soon
find distribution throughout the neighbor-
hood. They extend knowledge Of the
arts Of culture, and tend to distribute a
practical knowledge of hot-beds and fore.

An Attempt to Waylay e,e Overland

From stage passengers Who reached
Helena from the terminus Wednesday even

There were six persons aboard, DIR. j. s.

is understood, contained large amount in
currency returning to Helena in exchange
for bullion shipments constantly going for
ward to New York. At about 0 O'Clock
at night, when nearing Hole-in-the-Rock
station. south of Pleasant Valley, Idaho,
one of four men, concealed behind some
roadside rocks, rose suddenly and shouted /:
''Stop the coach-right there ~
The command was quickly followed by
a single shot, which whiZzed over and went
purring past the coach. This was immie.
diately succeeded by revolver shots, the
messengers using their side arms as the
readiest weapons with which to respond.
The stage team. shying at the first rifle re-
port, started on the run, and increased
their speed as the shots increased in num-
Der and noise.
LET 'em slde." cried one of the mes
sengers, anI the driver pushed the team
along with whip and ribbons.
The critical point was passed on the gal
lop, the dazed roadagents firing Wild their
bullets singing over, under and on both
sides OF the fleeing stage. Not a soul Of
the six, or the driver was lit. and, singl-
'ar to say. the coach itself escaped perfora-

THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.
Steadily Increasing Prosperity OF the
Road.
New York Times, 18th ult


A board meeting of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company was held at the offices
corner Of Fifth avenue and Ninth stree
yesterday, at which it was decided to i'm
mediately place under contract for con
I struc'ion the 200 miles of road extending
from the head of navigation of the Column
bia river northeast to Lake Pend d'Oreille
This section OF fhe road will pass through
one OF the finest whcat-growing regions OF
the northwest. Several cargoes of rails
have already been shipped for the work.
which will be pushed to speedy compile
ton. The stockholders lave given their
| consent to the issue of the securities to be
placed on the new road.
MIR. Wright, the president of the road.
rendered his resignation yesterday, which
was accepted, and he will go abroad for
rest and recreation. Mr.. Frederick Ril-
lings- of Woodstock, VT. was.elected TO
the place made vacant by Mr.. Wright's re-
tireslent. Mr.. Billings is an old member
Of the board, the chairman OF the executive
committee, and the interests of the COM
pany will be well looked after in his hands.
In consequence of the appreciation of the
land grant stock, the company have decitl-
ed to reduce the price per acre of their
lands east of the Missouri river from ST to
81 per acre. The general situation of the
company is such as to give the holders of
its securities great encouragement. That
the road will one dav ha ono nf tho p,nct
valuable railroad properties in the country
is q certainty. Meantime. everything is
being done to retrieve the disasters which
the failure of Jay Cooke & Co.. and the
panic Of 1873. brought upon it. The road
was then thrown into bankruptcy, but it
has been reorganized in such a way that
the interests of every person holding dol
lars worth of its securities or stock have
been thoroughly protected. Changes we're
made IN the character Of the securities first
issued, which are now nearly COMPLETED
by the voluntary action of those who held
hem. and the common and preferred stock
'f the company is steadily rising in price
n the stock market. Upon that portion
II the road already completed, the earn
ngs next year will undoubtedly reach
ound million Of dollars and, altogether.
here is the most cheering assurance that
y continuation of the careful and Geo.
omlcal management of the past five years.
