What Ais the Famers,

Wheeling Register: When
twice as many farmers as mer-
chants, four times as many farmers
as clerks, five times as many far
mers as courtesans commit suicide
in this country, we are constrained
to ask, What has got the matter
with farmers, anyhow"
We have been accustomed to
look upon the farmer as the freest
and happiest man on earth, yet the
figures we give above from an in
surance journal, and which are prob
ably very accurate, seem to over
throw this popular notion.
OF 424 deaths by suicide in the
United States during the past three
months the occupation which fur
nish the greatest number is farming.
The journal which makes this state
men attributes it to the enormous
taxation with which the whole
country is cursed.
The taxation, direct and indirect,
town, county, state, and national, is
eating the averge farmer out of
house and home, and the result is,
first, a mortgage on the old home
stead; second, a foreclosure; and fl
nally, suicide.
There may be something in this.
1t may not be that every farmer
who mortgages his land is forced to
by excessive taxation, nor does eve
ry farmer who cannot clear off his
mortgage commit suicide. But
there may be more cases of suicide
among farmers where pecuniary diff
tculties are primary cause than we
are ready to admit at first thought,
and more whose pecunisry Difficult
ties arise from the great burden of
taxation than is generally sup
posed.
Whatever be the underlying cause
of this surprising fact, it is one that
must attract attention, and put po-
litical philosophers at work to
solve it.

Value Of Early Planting.

st. Louis Republican: It car
not be too often or with too much
emphasis recalled to farmers
minds that it is the early croI
which has far the greatest security
of being the full crop. It is not be-
cause farmers do not know this
fact themselves and know it much
better than only observers from the
towns and cities know it that il
should be called to their attention,
but because word fifty spoken at
the right time often induces action,
quickens activity, and excites emu
Iation where mere routine would
else have ruled. It is not once in
ten times that late crop has advan-
tage over the early one. The other
nine times it is certain the planting
is most productive. Droughts ne ar
ly always come late in the season,
and if the corn is then not well adj
vanced no amount of work will
bring it out. If the season is wet
the early planting may be cultiva-
ted at the very earliest day when
the season permits, while the late
crop is not yet up. Therefore ev-
cry day in the early season is Of
especial value Gala days, festivi-
ties, social reunions, and all enjoy
ments which cost time could well
be postponed till the crop is in. An
hour taken from the early morning
or the twilight in the season of
planting will be worth day at am
other time. Self-denial and re-
doubled energy in planting time are
often the keys to prosperity.

and Chamber for success. He says
the avenues of employment, and
the great high roads to success in
the quiet little town where he lives
are closed, and that young man
might wander about all summer
and never find anything to do that
will eventually make him a great
man, and place laurels of fame
within his reach, so he will only
have to reach up with a pole and
knock off chunks of fame, enough
to last him through life. Yes, sir,
there is plenty of room in this city
for young men. There is plenty of
room in any city, village or town
for young men who want to climb
up the ladder of fame. But there
is no room in the city for any more
young men who expect to knock
laurels off a tree with pole. Lau-
rels don't grow on trees in this city
any more than they do in country
places, even where trees are plentl-
full, and laurels couldn't grow on
them if they wanted to. But there
is still room in the most crowded
city on the globe for young men of
energy and push, and who rather
spend their leisure time in hustling
for bread, than standing on the
street corners, smoking cigarettes,
wearing tight pants, and posing as
a masher, at nothing per day, and
beating some boarding house out
of their sustenance. All this talk
alb out the avenues of employment
being closed to young men, is gam
mon, and any young man need not
move into city from some country
town, in the hope of getting on
better than he ce;Sl<ai-in the country.
The young man who don't catch on
in small town, where competition
in labor and capital is less does
not possess the ingredients to give
him very startling lead in the
city. If the correspondent can ex-
tract any Cancellation out Of this in
formation he is welcome to it at the
usual rates.-Peck's Sun.

Advantages Of Being Farmer.

The Springfield, Mass, Republi-
can thus sums up the advantages Of
the farmers occupation:
There are some advantages in be-
ing q farmer that he ought to think
of these times. His lot may be hard
work and no end to it, but he is the
only man in the country who can
command safety. The forehanded
farmer has always the assurance of
his living, and it may be a very
good living, while he is equally sure
that what he produces will be
wanted for others. And if times
are hard and prices low, he doesn't
have to shut up shop, fold his I'M
willing hands, and see his property
deprecated in idleness, as many
manufacture does. He does not
need to venture highly, and if he
makes no brilliant profits he runs no
risks. 1t is estimated from actual
figures that out / 900 traders, but
seven can acquire wealth. OF l,112
bankrupts who took the benefit of
the bankrupt law in Massachusetts,
only IA were farmers; and of 1850
in New York, on 46 were far
mers. Less than two per cent. of
the bankrupts belong to the
agricultural population which so
largely exceeds all other voca-
tions.

Starting BOYS in Life.

Clark Mills, the sculptor, recentl
deceased, had some peculiar ideal
about the education Of his children
He was fairly well-to-do, but al
lowed his sons while they were be
ing educated a pittance so small
that his friends demonstrated t.
him. "But'" said he, Il want then
to learn economy. Young people
should all be trained so as to be
able TO meet reverses in business
Simple tastes and frugal habits are
a better inheritance than broad
acres or government bonds, My
boys go TO Munich to pursue their
studies. Living is cheap in that
city, while art is free. The money
that an American College boy
would waste In carelessness expend-
iture will suffice to maintain an
art student in many parts of Ger
many very handsomely indeed. +"
Mr.. Mills was quite right; it is we'll
to make an allowance to their chill
dren for their chothing and current
expenses, and confine them rigidly
to the annual appropriation. Heads
of families who encourage thriftless
habits by paying all the bills with
out question, must not be aston
ished if daughters do not know the
value of money, and sons become
spendthrifts.

rurthar Troubla for the Girls.

Some statements recently print
ed in this journal concerning the
tendency of young men in life
present many unfortunate aspects.
1t was shown by talks with num-
Der of employers that comparative
ly few young men were learning
trades and that the number is actu-
ally growing less every year. The
boys now growing up seem to
be too nice for real work and they
seek positions as clerks and book
keepers and such light places,
where they seem to care little for
the pay so long as the work doesn't
muss their hair and soil their
clothes.
This frightful waste of young
man is of very great concern to the
young women. 1t has been the
popular thing for years for young
men to discuss the usefulness of
girls. Large numbers of them are
more than necessarily useless,
but the most useless girl has
generally been able to find a snita
bic match in a useless boy some
where or other.
The danger now seems to be that
the useless boys are going to be
much in excess of the useless girls.
The young men arc wasting them
selves more and more every year.
They are making themselves total
Is unfit for the duties and respon-
sibilities of life.
1t is this which Is discourag-
ing marriage. The young mans
reason for not marrying is that
girls are so extravagant and costly.
This has been the regulation story
for years. The fact is that the av-
erage young man who drifts into
poor but genteel clerkship, when
he should go into the workshop, is
not able to get together enough
money to take care of himself. He
could not undertake the support of
the most economical girl, and he
seeks to excuse his weakness by
untruthful railing at the young
women.
AS matter of fact the young
women of this day are showing a
much more useful tendency than
the young man. They are seeking
work and supporting themselves in
most instances with better judg-
ment and more courage than is dis
played by the average young man.
Perhaps the practice among young
people of getting married can be re-
sumed again some time if the young
men will cultivate econ omical hab-
it's and make it possible for the
young women to support husbands.

MonotonY.

Fashionable life is exhausting
and tiresome in its designations.
On the other hand, the evening OF
great numbers of families are gener-
ally of mOnotonous humdrum.-
They involve an assemblage of the
same people, the same surroundings,
the same paterfamilias yawning
over his paper, and the same queru
lous mamma overladen with family
cares. Fresh people with fresh
thought, fresh atmosphere, anything
to stir up and agitate the pool of
domestic stagnation, are sadly
scarce. There needs to be also a
constant succession of such fresh
people to bring about these results.
The world is full of men and wo-
men, and in a better regulated life
it would be the business after the
days work was done to entertain
each other and give each other fresh
life. As it is now, hundreds if not
thousands of our households are
little better than cells for the in
generation. of each family. Thous-
ands are thus worn out prematurely
from the utter lack of domestic re-
creation. There might be written
over the graves of many: "Bored to
death by the stagnation of domestic
life -
