A short time before the adjournment of
Congress, Hon. ]. c. Burrows was appointed
as Chairman of a special committee to in
vestigate the question of the Mississippi
River improvements. In speaking of this
matter the Chicago Times says:
"The committee selected includes some of
the best men in the House, and their report
will undoubtedly have a great effect upon
future legislation on this subject. Mr.. Bur-
rows, of Michigan, Chairman of the COM
mittee, who made the principal speech In
favor of the resolution to-day, has given the
subject good deal of thought. His selec-
ton as Chairman is a compliment to his
standing in the House. There is no one up
on the Republican side who has more intiu-
ence to-day as a member, or i'll whom Demo
Gratis as we'll as Republicans have more con-
fdence."

Slow But Sure.

The saying that farming is slow business
may as well he accepted, in comparison with
the stock watering possibilities of the cities.
and that it is sure is undoubtedly true, when
contrasted with the successful ventures of
speculation or the investments in commerce
or. manufactures. We are repeatedly told
that it is the destiny of at least 10 in every
20 in mercantile life to fail at least once.
There are few absolute failures among farm
ers not that "crop failures" are unknown.
for they seem to occur almost annually, and
are naturally expected, and survived with
wonderful ease. Thousands Of farmers can
figure out an absolute loss in the business.
and at best can make per cent interest the
maximum of profit, yet the fact remains that
friends, drive span to town, raise and edu-
cate children, and increase gradually their
taxable realty. Not that every man WAC
lives by the pillow can accomplish all this.
Not every boy that learns q trade becomes a
master mechanic, owns his WI house, or
amasses little competency.
There are leading spirits. great organizers,
in agriculture as we'll as in trade and manu-
features, yet the multitude in these latter
callings are laborers, toilers in crowded quar-
tiers 10y day, and subject to the dangers of
sewer gas and other impure air of cities by
night, with whose condition even farm labor
ers would not be satisfied But it is not
proposed TO argue this vexed question over
again. Is agriculture safe business? Yes,
decidedly. BY the sweat of his brow the
farmer does make his bread, The frosts
bite, the winds wither, the sun scorches, the
waters drown, the insects devour. and mildews
mysteriously blight. The sower scatters the
Seed not knowing whether he will gather
twenty or a hundred fold; he fertilizes. and
secures the larger crop from some unmanur
ed surface he expects leanness, and gets a
fat yield; he feels sure of large reward and
reaps failure. Yet. in the average. he gamers
a fair return, and finds fulfilled the promise
that seed time and harvest shall not fail So.
with all this huctuation and loss. the hus-
bandman finds his business the srrest of all
the occupations Of earthly. J.. Tribune.
