News, should have at least one farmers club

clubs or societies and they are generally
noted for their intelligence and thrift, show
ing marked progress in agricultural and in
crease of reputation abroad. I'm union
there is strength" and the social inter
course of men engaged in the same buai>
ness always operates as astimulant to inten-
sity and improve by general dissemination
of individual knowledge and experience,
1t is sort of school no ambitious farmer
can afford to neglect, and well adapted to
the training of young inexperienced farm
ers. The meeting should be made agrees
able entertainments, always at the residence
of some member of the club or society, the
inspection of whose farm, stock, poultry
and general industrial operations should be
embraced in the order of the day. 1t is
wonderful what effect the knowledge OF
such coming inspection will have upon the
proud owner of the farm, or even OF poor
one, as to that He will do his best to rem
edy its defects, and in extremely few cases
will he fail 10 make creditable showing,
perhaps in the very first year.
