Correspondence.

CRAWLING. June 8. 1881.
Editor Ardldnche:-Lifei is full of
changes. Sometimes the changes glad
den us, and sometimes they sadden.
not only in our lives are changes motto
able, but in all other things I'VE see them
day after day, year after year, bowing
to the inevitable. In reading your pa
per some months past, we have noticed
changes going on, and the change has
gladdened; we think you might call it
the Improved AVALANCHE. In the
columns of your paper for some weeks
past, we have noticed communications
from our worthy farmers, and others,
advocating the forming of farmers
club. We do not intend to discuss that
subject, we leave that for those who
are more especially interested, but we
would speak of something, which, il
ignored, farmers might as well lock up
the club room, or turn il into n court
room; j mean the religious element; (;
on that, to a great extent, hangs the
success of farmer and all others. Show
us prosperous county, and we will
show county where the religious ele-
ment abounds.
Looking at this even from a mere fl
nancial standpoint, we see in town or
county, that where lawless disregard
of Gods moral laws prevail, property
depreciates in value. That is state
ment that can be substantiated by facts.
Let the weeds of infidelity and skeP-
ticism find lodginent in the mind of the
farmer for instance, and weeds are
likely to be the principle product of

their farm. We might write to a great
er length on this idea, but we forbear.
We have good reasons to believe that
Crawford is not the .,most. lawless
county in Michigan, nor Grayling the
village In which Gods holy laws are
the least regarded. Still there is great
room for improvement. We, with
others, have to acknowledge the fact
that many seats are empty in the relig-
ious services all the year round. The
question is asked What Is the rea-'
SOM" But that old time honored ex-
cuse has been given: in winter Its too
cold" in summer ''its too warm. >"
Some have no time some are tired,
they say, again, 81 pray thee have me
excused The Sabbath, by n great
many, is turned into day of sport |;
some honor il by working hard. We
call it breaking the Sabbath, but some
might say, sits all right, / am not
Christian, am not governed by the
Bible" But still we say that day must
be respected; if Gods holy laws do
not bind, take up the laws of the State
of Michigan. We said that change is
the order of the day; our county and
village are changing, the forest trees
are falling around us; men from almost
every State are coming in and striving
to bring the soil under cultivation.
These changes are notable; but the re-
ligious element keeps pace with in
creasing population. Let the Sabbath
day be honored. and as strangers come
among us, let them feel they are still
in Christian America. f..

day, having caught /, ,060 fish. There
being some s or all told in the party,
fish diets were said to have been quite
numerous. They carried away with
them some 300 fine ones on Saturday,
as trophy of their trip, while one of
the gentlemen takes with him the re-
membrance of a very pretty capsize at
the hands of a poler, while roundingto
to land. On the whole, the gentlemen
expressed themselves as being more
than satisfied, as the results were far
better than anticipated, and they re-
turned jubilant and joyous, and were
loud in their praise of the whole affair.
We are in receipt of crop and
stock reports from Hon. w. Jenney, Sec
retary of State, which states that 90S
townships show that there were 1 $780,
02l sheep sheared in 1883, yielding 10,
l39, 5S1 pounds of wool. This is an
average of 8 45-l00 pounds per head.
The reports also show that the number
of sheep in the same townships in 1881
was 1 ,979, 293, which is Sal per cent
more than the number sheared in 1880.
If there has been a corresponding in
crease in the remaining 167 townships,
there will be 2,013, sos sheep sheared
in the State the present year, and the
total clip at the above average per
head will be 10, 974, 1863 pounds.

Farmers Club.

am pleased to note the evident in
terest heing taken in the question of
farmers clubs by your correspondents.
l would like to add my voice to the
rest in favor of the formation of a
Crawford County Farmers Club"
and would like each and every one en-
gaging in the pursuit of agriculture,
whether male or female, to consider
him or herself member thereof. Farm
ing is never success, in every sense of
the word, until it becomes a science.
To understand it as a science, it would
be well TO be conversant with several
other branches, viz: Ornithology, En-
tomology, Chemistry and Natural Phil
osophy, to a certain extent. Orni-
thology, in order to understand which
of the birds were our friends and which
our enemies. Entomology, that we
may become acquainted with the hab-
its of those insects most likely to in
jure or destroy our vegetables, and
learn how TO defend ourselves from
their depredations. Chemistry. that
we may analyZe our soils and ascertain
what fertilizers we need to supply, and
TO know upon examination what crops
the soil is best adapted to, considering
climate, etc. Natural Philosophy, up
on which farming as we as many other
pursuits depend, in a great measure
Well, what we want is real practical
experience, and we should all profit by
the experience of one. Most of us can
ill-afford to experimentalize. Let us
hear from all through the columns of
the AVALANCHE, as TO the methods of
planting and cultivation, and the re-
suits as fast as they are reached. This
will be as beneficial as a club and may
be conducive of more good, as our
paper may reach more than would at
tend the meetings of a farmers club.
