STONEWALL JACKSON'S
TODDY.

Having fingered to che last al
lowable moment with the members
Of my family 'hereinbefore men
tioned'-as the legal documents
would term them, it was after 10
o'clock at night when I returned to
headquarters for final instructions,
md before going to the Generals
room I ordered two whisky tod
dies to be brought up after me.
When they appeared offered one
of the glasses to Jackson, but he
drew back, saying:
No, no, Colonel, you must ez-
cuse ne; never drink Intoxicating
liquors
4 know that, General said 7,
but though you habitually abstain,
as I do myself, from everything OF
the sort, there are occasions-and
this is one Of them-when a slim
ulant will do US both good; other
wise, I would neither take it my
self nor offer it to you So you
must make an exception to your
general rule and join me in q toddy
tonight
He again shook his head, but,
nevertheless, took the tumbler and
began to sip its contents. Pre-,
sently, putting it on the table after
having but partly emptied it, he
said.
Colonel, do you know why I
habitually abstain from Intoxicating
drinks?' And, upon my replying in
the negative, he continued:
why, sir, because I like the
taste of them, and, when I discov-
| cred that to be the case, I made up
| my mind at once to do without
| them altogether

SELECTION OF A FARM.

The size of farm should be suited
TO the capacity of the pocket-book.
Many young farmers make the
mistake of buying a large farm
with little money to pay for It.
There is nothing that SO binds
man ss heavy mortgage. 1t eats
the very heart out Of the farmer,
and hangs ike leaden weight
upon every aspiration Of his wife
and children. It is better to buy
q small farm and have enough cap
ital to work it well. As the surplus
increases, it may be invested IN
more acres, or in 8 better culture
of those that have already proved
profitable. There is size below
which many OF the economies OF
the farm can not be practised to
the best advantage, and on the
other hand there is danger Of going
beyond that acreage where the most
profitable farming may be carried
on. It requires considerable exc
cutive ability to manage a large
farm, and therefore many men are
excluded from such by a lack which
they may not fully appreciate until
the trial has been made and the
failure recorded. Farming is not
like the taking Of citadel, and
can not be done successfully with q
rush and noise. It is a thought,
full and steady working out from
well-laid plans-a conquest for
crops, and the head must be clear
that wins where the seat of a cam
paign fora lifetime covers townships
or even square miles. The soil is
the foundation of farming, and it
should be fitted to the kinds OF
crops that it is desired to raise.
The differences in the nature
and capacities of sand and clay
should be understood, and ia
vorable mixture Of the two OBJ
tanned if there is an opportunity
for choosing. A rich soil, with
proper management, means good
crops at once, but it may be as
profitable to invest much less in an
equal ares of over cropped land,
and bring it up to high state Of
cultivation by green mauuring and
other methods Of restoration. The
farm house is to oe the home Of
the family, and therefore the local
ity for the farm should be heslthful.
The richest land for the price may
be on the border of a malaria breed
ing swamp, but the profits Of the
investment may be more than bal
snced by the doctors bills and loss
of time, not to mention the discom-
fort Of feTers in the household. It
is important that there be an
abundant water supply on all farms,
both for the family and the live
stock. There are social considera-
tions that no farmer should over
look in making choice Of g farm.
He lives not to himself alone; the
children need the privileges OF good
schools, etc.; in short, the COM
munity should be one in which
sympathy, goodness and intelli-
gence prevail.
With good farm Of proper size,
heslthfully located, abundantly sup
piled with water, good neighbors,
and handy market, 8 man is so
well situated that he ought to
make himself and those around him
happy. Choose well, and hold on
TO the choice.-American AgricuI-
turist for November.
