The Profit Of Farming.

There are different ways of looking
at the profitablenessi of farming, and
the prospect is rosy or gloomy accord
ing to the standpoint from which it is
viewed. If you want about the most
1ugubrious opinion of, this business that
can be expressed, come this way and
we will show you where to find it. We
will go to some place where the fences
are lying in tumble-down, ruin, the
gates hangingby one hinge; the barn
lopsided, leaning pile; the barnyard
rocking swamp; the house "a leaking,
dismal wreck; its windows stuffed with
old coats and hats everything devoid
of paint or finish, and nothing in it's
proper place or in decent condition. If
you can fight yoH way through the
ours around the door to the proprietor,
ask him, while he eyes you with strong
suspicion, whether farming pays If
he is not afraid that his answer will
give you some opportunity of cheating
him, he will tell you that farming is
the worst business in the world. Then,
when you have warily backed out from
among his dogs, We'll make another
visit. Let us try a farm-where fences,
buildings and improvements are all
substantial, neat and first-cIass; where
paint, window glasses, etc, are album
dant; where everything gives evidence
of thrift and industry. As the pro-
prietor turns from some employment to
greet you frankly and heartily, ask him
whether farming pays. His answer is
in his surroundings. Such contrasts
are by no means fanciful, and we have
seen them quite sharply defined on
farms in the same ighborhood possess
sing naturally equal advantages, 1t is
a pleasure to know that squalor isfbe-
ing rapidly and steadily driven from
progressive modern agriculture, and
that pictures of the kind first viewed
are becoming more rare 1fromeyear to
year. The farm is, as u rule, an index
to the character of the farmer, as-well
as an exponent of his Industry and his
methods. Other things being equal,
much of the success or failure of agri-
culture lies in the directing mind If
this be vigorous, thoughtful, studious,
earnest, results may be depended on to
take care of themselves The bulk of
the American people are living by
farming, and the growth. of the coun-
try'S wealth is sufficient proof that it
pays.-Pttsburqh Statesman.

THE DAIRY.

AS grass loses its richness and
suculencY in the hot months of sum-
mer, the best dairymen feed soiling
crops or grain moderately. They also
take care that the supply of wholesome
drinking water is provided.
PROF. Z. w. Stewart, in his recent
useful book, celebrates the cow as 1.-THE
most remarkable producer among ami
mails" She gives at her best nearly
seven times her own weight per an
mum in milk, of food value twice as
great as the beef creature of equal size
gains during the same time. st -a
"a Henry Stewart says that when a
dairyman intends to permanently past
sure his cows he can recommend the
common quick grass as an early past
lure; orchard grass next, then red top
and blue grass, with white clover mixed
in and red clover or lucerne to help. out
deficiencies. He considers them the
most productive milk materials.
. Prof. Arnold urges dairy farming;
first, because it costs ten per cent. less
to operate a dairy farm than grain or
mixed agriculture; second, the average
returns are larger than for other farm
ing; third, the prices are more uniform
and trustworthy; fourth, dairying ex-
hausts the soil least; fifth, it is more
secure against changes in the season.
10 The Boston Commercial Bulletin
says that the best butter in the country
is made in Iowa. 1t also says: 1.-The
reason is simple. Corn, which is raised
in the West SO abundantly, is freely fed
to the COWS; this produces better milk
than hay or mixed feed, and this in
turn produces better and finer butter
Notwithstanding corn is worth more to
the western farmer than it was even
few years ago, he continues to feed ais
cows literally with it, and obtains
higher price for his butter"
4 The New York Times, through its
reporters, learns at this date what the
| D4i7ynlGn called attention to some time
ago, that there is a large storage of
butter going on in this city. All the
signs, fine weather, an abundance of
grass, large hay crop, and plenty of
people in the business, point to the pro-
duction of a large butter crop; and yet
the retail price of good butter (thirty

do not allow the COWS to shrink in
their milk at this season of the year, as
they are SO apt to do if not furnished
with extra food as the pastures fail.
Subsequent feeding viii not bring them

don't you put any faith in statements to
the contrary of this. You may crowd
the feed on her so that she will ap-
proximate the point, but with the most
wasteful feeding and injurious effects on
the COW there will still be decided
loss. So we say, keep up the flow and
save feed and the cows health. -Amaert-
