Give fools their gold q knaves their power

Or plants a tree, is more than all.
The Farmers Most Active Enemy.

This destroyer of the farmers hard
earned savings is on every farm, in the
houses, and never leaves us day or night
summer or winter. Itdamages at mid
night and destroys at monday. The
marks OF its teeth may be seen on the
pasture fence, it is wasting the barn
stills, and pegging away at your sulky
pillow. Even iron and steel are not ex.
empt from it's ravages. The pillow is
brought in from the field bright with
use; next week it needs several hours
of work and worry to make it scour.-
You lend your new bright handsaw to
a neighbor, who kindly leaves it lying
on the grass night or two, and its
condition when returned mars its use
fulness, and lessons your faith in hu-
man nature. A careless farmer leaves
his new mower in the field, or he fence
corner until next summer, by which
time this fell destroyer has damaged it
one third,its value. The sections are
black with rust, the journals are all
gummed. and the wood work is pene-
trated and weakened in every part
Those who have read thus far, will
readily have recognized this enemy as
rust, rot or decay, the most active pro-
moter of which is oxygen. This in
visible gas forms one fifth of the en-
tire bulk of the air, and eight ninths
of the weight of all the water on the
globe. While of the greatest value in
the economy of life, it is also a des-
tructive agent of the most untiring
kind. Yet its ravages are easily stop
ped IN many instances. A thin cover
ing of some oil will perfectly protect
steel and iron from its action. A coat
of paint good enough to keep water
from soaking into wood, will protect
it from decay almost indefinitely. In
the far West, where building is some
what more expensive than in the East
farmers are disposed to leave their the
farm tools out of doors the year round.
Such men are making great mistake
If they are not able to afford shelter
for their tools. they can buy gallon
of paint, which, if carefully applied to
the wood work will 60 long way to-
ward protecting it from decay. 1t is
certain that if the farmers of any State
would expend one thousand dollars for
paint next year for this purpose, they
would save ten thousand now likely to
be utterly lost. If any one thinks this
is overstated, let him look around a.
mong his neighbors, and see the hun
dreds and hundreds of dollars worth
of machinery that is going to ruin and
decay from neglect, which a little
paint would prevent. Here at least in
the protection of farm implements a
penny saved is as good as penny earn

Tie Comm ssionerof Agriculture, Dr. Lorng, does not seem to be at all certain of if, but he takes the ground, and vsry properly, tha. the existence of "disease supposed to be pleuro- pneuuouia" calls for great caution in the prevention of its extension. Cau- ton should Lave the benefit of the doubt. No on., not even tie editor ot the Breeders Gazette. claims that 1t has ext nded to any other tLan Jerseys, a -train that is uukUOwb at the far West, snd comparatively unimportant in this Western country. It will be sstn from the statement published else vh, re that even II tie fear is we'll gnunded it oHgh, not to be very difficult to stamp ont the disease- If the good advice given by Commissioner Loring is followed the evil will be cu.ed be ore any very serious damage has been done.
