Farming for Livine or for Money.
By our Agricultural Editor.

By our Agricultural Editor.
American farmers may be divided into
two great classes, those who farm for hv-
ing, and those who labor for money. vi
course, in one sense, all farming may De
said to be for living, even though money
making is the leading object, and there are
men who combine the two, and work both
for living and for money. Still there are
many who go to farming with the one lead
ing purpose to grow their own bread ana
bacon, raise their own vegetables, FRUITS
flowers, eggs, poultry, butter, milk, @c.'
and are content to do this without having
much of anything to turn into cash. Whlle
there are also another, and larger class OF
farmers who go into the business to make
money, to raise large crops Of some leading
commodity, such as tobacco or cotton, ana
to sell the whole Of it for cash.
Now the methods of farming to be pur
sued should vary very much, according as
the one or the other thing is thus made the
object in view. The one crop planter has
many risks to run He stakes all upon one
staple, and goes in ''to make or break, as
the case may be. Ifseasons, soil and prices
are in his favor, if sickness or other acct
dent does not overtake him, and there is no
panic in the commercial world, and If he
does not run too deeply in debt on the faith
of his crop, the years end may, perhaps,
| e. L: in hsc nnckpt
Yet, after all, what is the per cent of profit
that he has realized on the labor and capital
invested? If he has kept correct account
of every important item, he may be able to
tell. But, if cotton is his crop, suppose he
compares the profit he has realized on a
pound with the profit Of the merchant who
sells it, or the manufacturer who converts it
into some useful fabric, which man has
made the most on that pound of cotton?-
Let the investigation be fairly made, and
the planter will soon see for which man he
has been working, whether himself or some
other fellow.
But take the man who farms for the pur-
pose of growing his family supplies, with
out having them to buy. He raises nearly
everything that his family consumes. Hav-
ing variety of small crops, his risk of to-
tai failure is almost nothing. He labors
for himself, and not for the other fellow
Panics do not affect him, for his crops are
, not under mortgage and he has no debts.
His food, and much of his raiment, is as
sure as the return of the seasons. He
farms for living, and he makes it, that
is, if common sense and ordinary industry
are invoked.
Which system do our readers follow p
} The methods necessary to success in either
} are quite distinct. Success may be at
} tanned in either branch, but it is as certain
as mathematical demonstration that the
} chances are largely in favor Of the man who
farms for living, and lives by his farm

DR.. Alfred Carpenter relates a story
about celebrated violin player, who was
asked to take glass of wine, just before
going on the stage. He said: sob, no,
thank you, I shall have it when I come
off," This answer, says Alfred Reade, ex-
cited DR.. Carpenters curiosity. He in
quired of the violinist why he would have
it when he came off, III preference to hav-
ing it before his work commenced? His
reply was eff l take stimulants before
60 to work, the perception of my fingers
| is blunted, and don't feel that nicely and
delicacy of touch necessary to bring out
the fine tones requisite in this piece Of mu
sic, and therefore, I avoid them.'' The
vioiinist came very near discovering abso-
lutte truth in reference to the power and
influence that alcohol in all its forms has
to pervert and destroy the physical struc-
ture of the brain, which is the harp of the
mind. This thought brings to my mind a
melancholy remembrance Of Bayard Tay-
lor, who was always laughing at Mr.. James
Parton, for those articles which he wrote
for the atlantic Monthly. One was called
docs it Pay to Smoker" The other,
"Will the coming man drink wine?" Mr.
Bayard Taylor was a fine, portly looking
gentleman, but smoked tobacco and drank
wine. Mr.. Parton, commenting on Mr..
Taylor's early death, says: "Some fifty
New York journalists have either died in
their prime, or before reaching theil
prime" He adds: ga similar mortality
has been observed in Great Britain. Dick.
ems died at fifty-eight, and Thackeray al
fifty-two years: and great number of less
er lights have been extinguished, that
promised to burn with increasing bright
ness Mr.. Parton puts the case nicely
and modestly. He says: "These mer
died because they didn't know how to live. ;
But the truth is they killed themselve.
with alcohol and tobacco.
