The Northern Pacific farmer. [volume] (Wadena, Minn.) 1878-1885, 1880-06-10

"Agricola" writes short but very
pithy article on the question of exclu-
sive wheat raising and the reckless
purchase of machinery, which is
bound to prove the greatest blood
sucking monster of this new country.
Every farmer in the Northwest should
girdle on his armor and refuse to lis
ten to the overtures of oily tongued
agents, unless they stand in actual
and unavoidable need of a machine.
Remember, when a machine solicitor
approaches you that he will take your
notes, bearing interest; that you have
got to mortgage your farm, and spend
your earnings before you get Them;
that should you have bad luck with
crops you are plunged into an abyss
Of debt hard to get out of; you are put
ting your nose to a grindstone which
ever turns without pity or mercy as
long as there is a hair left to rasp by
its relentless grinding. For Gods
sake quit buying machinery, unless
you are actually compelled to do it..
Agents may tell you that the machines
will pay for themselves and more too.
They mever aciN. Iowa and southern
Minnesota has seen the prosperous
crops which is now blessing this coun.
try, but the machine monster stood
ready to throttle the thrifty farmers
as soon as a weak crop ensued. How
many machines have paid for them.
selves! On the contrary, how many
stately farms have been sold under
mortgage to pay for the machines!
We reiterate. Don't buy machinery
unless you are honestly convinced
that you cannot get along without it.
Running into debt for machinery is
mortgaging yourself to chance, and
the chances are that it will seriously
hinder instead of forwarding your
progress.

Spiritual TeIegramS.

Life is web Of mysteries, but 'the
mystery of mysteries is the workings
of the human soul. That intelligence
Of state Of being or state of events
is conveyed from one kindred spirit to
another-sometimes direct, sometimes
through the agency of third-sepa-
rate and apart from mans instrument
ality-is fact which I think has full
ly established itself in the mind of ev-
cry intelligent and observant man and
woman. Through this mysterious and
invisible agency long and wearisome
journeys have been attempted, suffer-
ings relieved, the last kiss given, the
final farewell spoken, ere the soul of
some dear loved one winged its way
across the mystic river to the land be-
yond the tomb.
AS space pleads brevity, we will re-
cord but few Of the many instances
brought under notice.
Mr.. A, Christian gentleman of
undoubted veracity, states that being
engaged upon certain time in hewing
timber, he wounded his foot severely
with the axe. As he was a great dis
tance from home and among strangers,
his situation caused him much anxiety
and trouble Of mind. That night in
telligence of the event was conveyed
to his brother remaining at home, who
supposed that he had dreamed. So
impressed was he, however, with the
feeling that the accident had really
occurred, that at early dawn he sad
died his horse, sought out his absent
brother, and found his condition to be
precisely as stated in the seeming
dream. Had this been an ordinary
dream he would have banished all
morbid forebodings from his mind
but-a message had been transmitted
and the messenger ever faithful urged
through the channels Of brotherly af-
fection and esteem, compliance with
its demands.
A lady residing in st. Louis was de-
prived by death Of an amiable and

THANKSGIVING Proclamation.

BY the President of the United States of
At no period in their history since
the United States became nation has
this people had so abundant and so
universal reasons for Joy and gratitude
at the favor Of Almighty God, or been
subject to so profound an obligation
to give thanks for his loving kindness,
and humbly to implore his continued
care and protection. Health, wealth
and prosperity throughout all our
borders; peace, honor and friendship
with all the world; firm and faithful
adherence by the great body of our
population to the principles of liberty
and justice, which have made our
greatness as nation, and to the wise
institutions and strong frame of gov
ernment and society which will per-
petuate; for all these let the thanks
Of happy and united people, as with
one voice, ascend in devout homage to
the Giver of all good. |, therefore,
recommend, that on Thursday, the
25th day of November next, the peo-
pie meet in their respective places of
worship to make the acknowledgment
to Almighty God for His bounties and
His protection, and to offer Him pray
ers for their continuance.
In witness whereof [ have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed. Done at
the City Of Washington this first day
of November, in the year of our Lord
one thousand eight hundred and eight
Y, and Of the Independence Of the
United States the one hundred and
fifth. r. B. HAYES.

Captain Ead's Snip Railway.

The Scientific American OF this
week contains two full page illustra-
tions Of Captain Ead's proposed rail-
way for transporting ships with their
cargo across continents.
CAPTAIN Fad claims by his plan to
be able to take loaded ships OF the
largest tonnage from one ocean to the
other across the Isthmus of Panama,
as readily as can be done by canal
after the Lessup plan, and at much
less cost for engineering construction.
The project is certainly bold and in
genious, and the protector anticipates
no serious difficulties in carrying for
ward his enterprise. The engravings
referred to in the Scientific American
show the proposed construction of not
only the railroad, but the appliances
for transferring the ships from the
water to the rail.
In addition to the large number of
engravings, illustrative of engineering
works, inventions and new discoveries
which appear weekly, the Scientific
American has, during the past year,
devoted considerable space to illustrat-
ing and describing leading establish
ments devoted to different manufac-
turing industries.
This feature has added very much
to the attractiveness and usefulness Of
the paper. More than fifty of the
most important industrial establish
ments Of our country have been Illus
trated, and the processes Of the differ
ent manufactures described in its col
umns. The Scientific American has
been published for more than thirty
four years by MUM s. Co., 81 Park
Row, N. Y, and has attained larger
weekly circulation than all similar pa
pers published in the country. The
publishers assure the public that they
have not printed less than $4,000 cop.
les week for several months.

DEMOCRATIC politicians were not
satisfied with feeding their followers,

THE Democratic politicians were
chuckling because Morton and Chan
dler are dead, and the Republicans
would weaken and allow the Demo-

case of close Presidential contest.
But the result shows that Morton and
Chandler still live, and that's what's
the matter with Hancock.

WILLIAM III. ENGLISH said last week
in an interview that the politics of to-
day are not like the politics Of twenty
years ago. Very true, William. One
of the causes of this difference, in In

sold out under foreclosure since the
good old daYs.
