THE WEEKLY BANNER.
The Farmer A Citizen.

Although the Office ola farmer is
one of the most honorable of en-
ployments and his art is one of the
most important factors in the
worlds progress and the problem
of complete living, yet, the Rural
Messenger observes, there is some
thing else required of him than to
be thus Il mere tool for the good of
others. 1t is not all of life, even
of 4 farmers life. to farm we'll.
The farmer is likewise citizen.
and in q free republic like ours, it
devolves upon him to discharge
the duties of n citizen and bear his
part in public life. 1t directly con-
Germs the farmer what laws he shall
live under; and as he has by right
q voice in the framing of those laws
he ought to exercise that right and
take an active part in the affairs OF
state. He ought to do this in Or
der to protect his own interests, if
for nothing more, and be sure that
his calling is as well protected as
that of any other class. To do this
he must store his mind with knowl-
edge, he must become an intclli-
gent citizen, with thoughts and
ideas of his own-must possess
such knowledge, in fact, as will fit
him 10 take part in politics and
government. He belongs to that
class which constitutes vast ma
jority over the other, and by dom
ocratic usage and principles, his
class should rule in the affairs of
state. This is the farmers right.
He is made for higher destiny
than to dig in the earth till he
wears himself out. He must and
should grow corn, but he must like
wise grow ideas among men. He
should put his guiding hand to the
public pillow, cast up the furrow of
truth and justice among men, and
scatter the pure wheat that will
grow and increase in the political
and mental field. The farmer must
be a free man as well as laborer.

Corn and Oats.

"The comparative value of corr
and oats for horses may" says the
Chicago National Live Stock Jour
nal, abe briefly stated as follows
The former is deficient in many OF
the elements of nutrition so nee
essary for recuporating the con.
slant wear and tear which neces.
sarily take place in the body of q
living animal. On this account
horses which are exclusively fed
on corn and hay do not receive
that kind of nourishment which
appears necessary for the due sup
port ana maintenance of the ami
NAL fabric. Hence, We must moi
be surprised that corn-fed horses
show evidence of being languid, by
sweating profusely while being
worked, lack Of vitality, etc,
Oats, on the contrary, contain
more of the essential elements of
nutrition than any other article OF
food which can be fed with i'm
punity to horses. Oats are not
only the most natural food for
horses, but are decidedly the most
nutritious. They are the cheap
est, because there is less risk IN
feeding them, and experience has
proved that horses properly fed on
oats and timothy hay can, with
regular exercise, good grooming,
and proper sanitary regulations,
be brought to the highest state of
physical culture, and can perform
more work with less evidence of
fatigue, than when fed on any
other article OF food"

Breaking Young steers.

The Orange Farmer knows ofnc
more profitable pastime for boys,
than the breaking of pair OF
young steers or calves to the yoke,
if an extra pair is likely to be
needed; the calves will not only
soon grow into oxen, but the act,
ual contact of the lads with the
calves and the ups and down in the
conflict of breaking them in, will
not only do the calves good, but
improve the boys from the healthy
exercise of bone and muscle it al
ways affords, If the boys are
young begin with q well matched
pair of spring calves, and lose no
time in providing a suitable yoke
to commence the training. Never
use the CAD on them, nor tie their
tails together to prevent the turn
ing of the yoke. On the contrary
feed them a few griddle-cakes un-
til they get well acquainted with
you. Teach them to walk by your
side and to carry their heads up by
gently tapping them with the butt
end of your CAD under the chin,
and then they will soon learn 10
back, haw and gee, and the boys
will soon have a team which will
soon aid in carrying grists to the
mill, or hauling stones on a stone
boat for building, or repairing
fences, and much other work re.
