ly investment, as the writer knows by
experience. At his home, away
from water conveniences, he adopted
the following plan, and has kept it up for
many years: The privy building was
raised about two feet higher than ii
used to stand, and the door approached
by steps. By cutting an opening at
the back Of the house, below the seat,
this new level easily allowed of running
q wheelbarrow, the carrying part Of
which was box, underneath. Amove-
able cover was made to the opening, to
slant outwards and cover the handles
of the barrow. Then, inside of the
structure. a bushel-box of dry earth or
coal ashes AS constantly kept, and in
it an asn-shovel. Those ordinarily
using the closet were instructed to ap-
ply shovelful of earth On the contents
each time. No smell ever arose from
the place, and once month the bar
row was easily trundled away relieved
of its load and returned.

The dairying business has greatly in
creased in the Northwest, especially in
Iowa and Minnesota, owing in great
measure to the establishment of cream
cries and the zeal of those who have
profited thereby. But the most sa.
gacious farmers do not advocate dairy
farms exclusively. They realize that
the evils attending exclusive wheat
raising, may follow exclusive dairying,
and that diversified farming is what pays
best in the long run. Cattle, hogs,
sheep, poultry, bees, corn, wheat and
other creals, and dairying with the rest,

Many people are under the impress.
sion that social life in cities is moro
agreeable than elsewhere. This is
mistake, as country people al
ways find, when transplanted to city.
There is less real friendship, less con-
hdence, less sincerity, less intimacy be-
tween people in the city than in the
country. Perhaps it is because there
are more rascality, more vice, more
deviltry going on in the city, which
make mon and women more suspicious
Of each other, and lead them to place
lower estimate on human nature. Peo-
pie do not know each other as thorough
~ in the city as in the country, and con.
6dence is plant of small growth. Ev.
erything is moro artificial, more con.
ventional in the CITY; it destroys in
great measure, that feeling of home life
which every one feels who Is born and
