Oxen for Farm Work.

A GENTLEMAN who for many years
cultivated farm in the vicinity of this
city recently gave the results of his ex-
perience in using oxen for blowing,
hauling manure and other farm work.
He stated that he always kept one team
of horses and one of medium-sized
Devon oxen. He repeatedly expert
mented with the two teams to ascertain
which could pillow the most land and
haul the most manure in given time,
and became convinced that the OK team
was the more valuable for both pur-
poses. In blowing the horses moved a
little quicker in the furrow but the oxen
made the round of land first because
they lost no time in turning. In severe
ly hot weather the oxen did more work
and were less fatigued at night than the
horses. While at work he fed both
teams alike, so that the cost of their
food at. these times was very nearly
equal. At other times the expense of
keeping the horses was double that of
the oxen. The cost of a yoke and chain
for the oxen was nominal, but the en-
pense for harness for the horses was
large. An ox-cart for hauling manure
and potatoes cost much less than dou-
BILE wagon for the horses. The oxen
required less care than the horses when
in the stable, and it took less time to
attach them to the pillow or cart. He is
in favor of reviving the fashion of work
ing oxen on farms. For new farmers,
especially those who are on new places,
he considers oxen every way preferable
to horses. They cost less when young
and sell for more when they become
somewhat advanced in age. They are
less liable to diseases and accidents,
and are at all times attended by less ex-
pense. To have oxen do the same
amount of work as horses it is necessary
that they be of a lively disposition, and
he considered Devons as superior to
animals of other breeds. 1t is also nec-
essary that they be allowed grain while
at Chicago Times.

Now, let us take q common-sense
view OF the points mentioned by the
grumblers, and ask them a few ques-
lions. How can we expect to succeed
il we DO not put our minds upon our
business! How can we succeed if we
90 not put our best energies into our
businessP How can we expect to make
farming pay if we dot expend time, la
Dor and moneyif need be upon our farms
for Improvement of CROPS, farms, stock,
buildings; etc?
Then in regard to the hard times
we will not deny that the times have
been hard; but we now hope that they
have passed, and better times are near
at hand. Yet, who lives more indie
pendent of hard times than the farmerp
10 the manufacturers, the merchants,
the mechanics, or those of other pur-
suits than the farmer? Undoubtedly
not. So it is with other callings; the
merchants are failing all around us;
firms are going down with a crash, aud
can't pay twenty-five cents on the dol
lar. Our mechanics can't sell their
wares, hetice are obliged to suspend or
reduce their business to such degree
that they can scarcely live. Therefore
we see that they are all as bad off as
the farmer-nay, much worse. We
would not decry the callings of 9TH
ers, though the chief among her sons
should stand the tillers of the soil, and
we should remember the words of the
poet, that
Honor waits DER all the earth,
Through endless generations,
And feeds expectant nations"
But let US return to the subject of
making farming pay. We think we
can in safety say that the farmer who
strives to succeed by using his best en-
ergy, combined with what science he
can command-practiclng well-directed
labor. and John Randolph's advice,
PAY as you CO." will not fail in max
ing the farm pay. 1t is not to be ex-
pected that all will become rich, but
they may live and die in comfortable
circumstances. The young men who
seek to live at their ease in the cities,
can read their fate by the wrecks of
thousands around them. Those who
think that farming is poor business
for young men to engage in, do not
always sum the matter up correctly;
and they should remember that agri-
culture is the most healthy and honora-
BILE of all occupations, and is also the
basis of the welfare and happiness of
the world.-C0r. Germantown Tele-
graph.

Does Farming PayH

THIS important subject, we are well
aware, is dwelt upon in many of our
agricultural journals frequently; how
ever, we still think that the subject is
fresh, and consequently always in order.
How often do we hear farmers saw,
especially in hard times, that farming
does not pay, can get no money out Of
it, can hardly live. can't pay their
taxes, store bills, and shall have to
sell out and try something else for q
livingP
Now we all know that this sort of
talking and grumbling comes from one
particular tribe of farmers, and it is
generally those who do q better business
ct grumblng than farming. But we
must ever remember that talk is cheaper
than farming; hence we may expect to
hear this talk from the idle farmer, who

Attend to Your Own Stock.

EVERY stock-raiser, rich or poor,
should personally look after the inter-
ests of his stock daily. There may be
instances where a careful, kind and at.
tentive hired hand may be had. But
as general rule this is not the case.
Too frequently the care of stock is in
trusted to bowling, wild, vicious fel-
lows, who beat and kick any animal
which stands in their way, or which
does not act exactly as they think is
right. From our experience on this
subject, we can scarcely write COM
posedly on the matter. There is not a
greater scarcity in any employment in
life than kind, gentle and careful stock
feeders. And this is especially the case
in the storms and bleak winds of win
ter, when stock need all the possible
care and attention which can be be-
slowed on them. Hence we say that
owners must attend to their own stock.
The hire1 hands can do the straight
work in the barn, fields or on the road.
But when considerate care and kind at
tention is needed, there is the owners
place. instead of entrusting it to men
who have no interest, and who only
put in their time to get their wages.
In many cases from this cause alone
frequently the best results are not OBJ
tanned by investment in various kinds
of stock. Kindness to dumb brutes is
a cheap article. yet it yields rich re-
wards. But even many owners upon
whom the exercise of such a virtue is
50 important have frequently but q
limited stock on hand. But they may
be assured that the animal which looks
kindly for your coming, and shows it
feels a pleasure from your touch, will
be more contented, and will assimilate
it's food more to your advantage. The
kind breath of the owner is balmy
breeze to all domestic animals.-Ioya

SALTPETER FOR SQUASH BUGs.-To
destroy bugs on squash and cucumber
vines, dissolve a tablespoonful of salt
peter in a pailful of water, put pint of
this around each hill, shaping the earth
SO that it will not spread much, and the
thing is done. The more saltpeter the
better for vegetables, but the surer death
to animal life. The bugs burrow in the
earth at night, but fail to rise in the
morning. No danger of killing any
vegetables with it; concentrated solu-
ton applied to beans makes them grow
wonderfully Wisconsin State Journal.
WHILE the mechanical condition and
fertility of soil has very much to do with
the yield of crops, good seed also plays
very important part. We know farm
ers who save the seeds of various crops
intended for future planting with great
care. and the result is seen on their
farms every year. None but the best
are selected, and while it takes much
time and labor, it pays. There is not
enough attention paid to the selection
of seed for field crops by farmers as
rule, and as long as this is 50 there will
be complaints of poor crops even in sea-
sons when the yield is generally good.
In the vegetable as well as in the ami
NAL kingdom the great law obtains that
strong vigorous, healthy parent stock is
necessary to produce offspring of the
same character. Poor degenerate seed
will invariably bring crops of inferior
quality.-Prairie Farmer.

The sons OF Uakes Ames are ont III a long
communication in which they strive to estal-
lisll for their father the character Of a pure
and self-sacrilicing statesman whose manipu-
lation of the Credit Mobilier stock was en-
tirely diSlnterested and conducted solely with
a view of the benefit it would ultimately con-
fer upon the public in securing the great
~transcontinental Pacific railroad. Speaking
of his method of placing the stock they
naively remark:
'|Of course every effort was made TO place
the stock in the hands of men of established
position. The motive was plainly stated by
Mr.. AmeS; Il have Observed he says, that
men will not take the trouble to acquaint
themselves thoroughly with affairs i'll which
they have no personal Interest,"
Mr.. Ames, of course, was too c%llarminsly
innocent to imagine that the vote ofcongless-
men on legislation touching the Pacific road
would be at all influenced by the fact of their
leaving funds invested in its stock. II is a pity
that the moral sense of the American people is
so sadly perverted that they saw in the Credit
Mobilier business an exhibition of corrup-
lion sufficient to draw their condemnation
upon Coliax, Brooks and Garfield, although
those who formerly were most severe in their
censures of the latter are now trying with
might and main to whitewash him into pos
session of good character once more.
