The farm aud fireside,
mLuCKv IN AGRICULTURE.

In all agricultural communities we find a
certain class of men who are unsuccessful IN
all they undertake. Their lands are as good
as their neighbors', they have the same mar
kets, the same facilities for obtaining supplies
the same sun shines upon them, and the same
rain refreshes, but they have no luck.
Of course the apology, as it may be called,
for non success clnnot be accepted. There Is
a reason for their continuous failure. Luck
is a word applicable only to games of chance,
where reason has no place, or where the want
of it predominates.
If we investigate the subject, we invarla.
bly find that these luckless tillers of the soil
are men of little stability Of character. They
are men who do not think, who do not study.
They are weather cocks, who change with ev-
cry changing wind. They cannot "stick" to
plan long enough for its development. They
plant crop, and fail to cultivate it. They
do not consider whether certain crop is
suited to a given portion of land or not.
They apply fertilizers, Gf they use them at
ally without regard to their adaptablllty to
the soil to be enriched or the crop to be
grown. In gambling parlance, "they 60 1t
blind"
As necessary consequence, such men are
"unlucky"-a word synonymous with unsuc'
cessful, in their opinion. But there is no
luck about it. nybody could have foretold
what would result from such action. The
consequences follow the cause with unerrlng
certainty. The earth brings forth literally
when properly dealt with, but she refuses ac'
customed yield to the idle, shiftless, and ig..
norant. 1t is in accordance with the eternal
fitness of things that thrift should follow in.
dustry and intelligence; that poverty should
be the result of idleness and ignorance:
In this progressive age the man who is not
| fully alive to everything that pertains to his
vocation. no matter what itmay be, soon finds
himself far behind his fellows in every way.
If he neglects to improve his stock by judi
cious crossing, he awakes, some day, to re-
alize that his scrub herd and flock are next
to worthless, while his neighbours are eagerly
sought for at remunerative prices. If he uses
the antiquated tools Of the last century, he
finds that he cannot grow cotton, cane, corn
or anything else, at profit, while his neig
Dor, who uses all the Improvements OF the
age, gets rich at the same business.
We have too many "unlucky" tilers of the
SOIL We have too few. progressive There
should be general movement looking to I,
reformation in this direction. Books and
papers should be multiplied and studied, and
the character of the soil and the requirements
of the several crops also. The most ignorant
man can do much by using his reason and
experience if he will only concentrate them
upon the subject to be treated. Much, very
much, may be done without the aid of mod
ern helps-as books and papers; but the
farmer who persistently ignores these has a
"hard road to travel"

CHIP DIRT FOR FRUIT TREEs.-The best
fertilizer to use in setting fruit trees of al
kinds is partially or thoroughly decomposed
chip dirt. We made use of the material for
the first time some twenty years ago in plant
ing an apple orchard, and it was wonder to
those not in the secret what caused the trees
to make such fine growth, the first season,
and afterward, too, for that matter. This ex-
pertinent was so satisfactory that when we
set our new orchard, we made a liberal use
of this material, with the same satisfactory
result. These trials have proved to our salts
faction that chip dirt is the very best materi,
al to mix in the soil as you plant the tree
that can possibly be used, for the reason that
it holds moisture, and is full of the elements
of plant food therefore, it promotes most
luxuriant, natural, and healthy growth. Re
peated trials have satisfied me that tree is
not only more sure to live, but will make
double the growth the first year Especially
ifa dry season. if some two bushels of chip
dirt are properly used in its setting than it
would without it. single trial will con
vince the most skeptical that the best possi-
Bile use that can be made of this valuable
material is to apply it to the soil in planting
trees in order to push forward the tree du-
ring the first precarious stages Of its growth
