Journal of Agriculture: Without
agriculture there is no wealth.
Gold and silver are not wealth, they
are its equivalent Representatives :
commerce produces no weaith-it
simply exchanges it, manufactures
and arts combine it. Agriculture

The earth breeds savages, agricul-
lure breeds enlightened nations; it
breeds houses and ships, temples
and seminaries; it breeds the facto-

offspring. The wheels of the work

implements OF science, the pen of

You can get on with a man Of
hasty temper by keeping out of his
way when he is ruffled. His mania
may be dangerous, but is spasmod
ic, and in the intervals of lncidity
he may be kind and friendly. But
a sullen man better be let alone. He
was taken i'll when he was born and
he won't get over it till he dies.
What becomes of him after death it

Words are the forms which our
thoughts and affections take, as we
send them forth to others. Sharp
and unkind words are like arrows.
They wound the mind, as sorrows
do the body. Cross and fretrul
words are ike thistles and nettles,
which irrItate and sting, not only
those to whom they are spoken. but
those who speak them. Who would
speak cross word if, the moment
it flew from his lips, it was changed
into an arrow, which wounded a
brother or sister or friend, and then
flew back and wounded him? How
careful we should be not to indulge
in unkind feelings, if they sprung
up all around US in thistles and net
ties, piercing and singing our feet
and hands, and the feet and hands
of all who come near u.s. Then feel
kindly and speak kindly.
