Tho Value OF Small Farms.-u must be
conceded that high cultivation can best be done
upon small farms, especially when ones capital
l. limited. The tendency 20 improve small farms
a. compared more thoroughly with large ones. 10
apparent in every thriving community. Small
farms induce thrift and peacefulness. The owners
arc stimulated TO frugaty TO obtain means for the
purchase Of improved implements aud commercial
manuTes. Many q man Is burdened with debt
because he has more land than he can till with
profit. II the same degree Of industry, with more
precision Of application, were give 20 q smaller
space. IL would result almost invariably in in
creased comfort. hApPincss aud prosperity, II no;
in wealth.
The mania for owning large plantations. and as
many as possible Of them. is evidently on the in
crease in this country. Heavy taxation Of unset
tied lands owned by non residents for speculative
purposes, proves TO be but partial remedy in.
preventing the evil. To every thinking person
who is interested in the general prosperity Of the
country. il Is evident that intensive farming IL
better every way than for individuals TO under.
