The secret Of producing a govern

with it the power TO preserve, sus-

vainly sought for by all the govern

ton and war, had at last been
found. But as this had been &C.
complished by the death of those
whose memory we honor today, we
had come to recognize with grateful
hearts and floral tributes the great
debt which we owed them. The

scriptions of the manner observed

the best notes we could take of the

and unsatisfactory report, and are
in great danger of disappearing

preceded by the brass band,
marched to the cemetery to perform
similar ceremonies to that witnessed
in the forenoon, escorted by Erastus
Buck Post. After prayer by Chap
lain Mansur, Bro. G. N. Dale being
called upon by the Noble Grand to
address the brethren, spoke substan-
TALLY as follows:
Noble Grand and Brethren,
This is no time to talk. No poor
words of mine can express our
thoughts and feelings nov. How
vain and unavailing here are the
dull cold forms Of speech. We are
now mindful of death. We go on
from design to design in life, care
less even in taking that last and sin
gle step between us and our de
parted brothers. Therefore it is
well that we pause and for a mo-
mont turn in hithcr from th, ooroo,
strifes and ambitions of life to pom
der the lesson of humanity; and to
bring tokens of sweet remombYances
to lay on the threshold Of the door
of the silent sleeping apartment just
closed behind the last brother only
to be reopened for another. And as
the sentiments of sorrow for the
dead are tender, delicate, refined
and pure, SO they are best attuned
to harmony by natures tenderest
types, these touching floral tokens
Of the loves, hopes, and Joys which
animated their hearts just as they
now do ours; which have faded
from earth only to revive and bloom.
in the springtime of another morning
cline.
We are standing in the field of
the dead-just among our sleeping
brethren, where we can almost be-
hold what they are and what we
shall surely soon become. Here in
one respect the endeavors of our
order are accomplished. Here all
distinctions are leveled. The prince
and the beggar, the millionaire and
the pauper lie down here in the
same common grave. The silver
links which united us with our ST.
lent brethren are temporarily
severed. The golden chain which
enclosed us with them has been
broken. To release two Of our de-
parted brothers we thought it had
been rudely snapped by the cruel
clements of nature when they burst
from mans control; but the chains
of bondage wound about them may
have been removed at the cry of
mercy. We don't know. They do
not seem to be gone. Just now on
the earth they walked with US, they
leapod, they ran with us life's race.
They talked, laughed, wept and
reioiced with us in those exercises
which recall the virtues of manhood,
and warm and cement our hearts
into the friendship, love and truths
of our order, They have taken just
one short step in advance of us, and
if they are not here beneath our
feet, they are where David and
Jonathan are, walking in sweet
communion and in the exercise of
love that is "eyen as the love of
woman" There is a beautiful story
told in the mythology of the olden
days that day was each year set
apart and consecratod to the worship
of the Goddess Fidos, and all the
people were won't to assemble on
that day to worship the goddess in
her temple in romantic vale.

AMERICAN AGRICCLTURE.

The many complaints winch come from the
farmers unqucstionably have some foundation.
The past year has not been a very prosperous
one for those who devote large share of their
labor to the raising Of wheat, and the crop Of
the previous year, though abundant Ill quantity,
sold at so low price that the farmer was much
disheartcncd. But his embarrassments are IN
large measure due to mistakes which he him
self can remedy, il he WILL Certainly the eX-
perence of the past few years ought to lead to
an earnest and determined effort to improve
the methods of agriculture in this country, so
that the prosperity Of this great industry may
dcpcnd less than it does now upon the produc
ton of few chief staples for distant markets.
The farmer, rs we'll lis the country needs di-
vcrSiication of industry, and greater economy
IN production. He needs to produce at less
cost than hitherto and to adapt production
more nearly to the demands OF the home mar
ket and to become himself a manufactures as
well as a farmer, turning out less of the raw
materials called corn, hay, or wheat, and more
of the finished products, cattle, hogs butter,
cheese, poultry and eggs. In the youth of ag
riculturc here with a virgin soil apparently
of inexha,Istiblc fertility, the farmer naturally
grain, for wi ich there was 4 ready market and
which could be produced with least delay.
Crude and wastclul methods were tolerated,
because the unwcaricd soil yielded abundantly
with little labor and no fertilizing. Land was
plenty, and if the soil began to wear out, the
farmer would always move further west, to
cult vatc new land again after the Old me thOds.
Thus agriculture has been sweeping across the
country, so to speak. scratching the surface and
wastefully eXhauSting the soil. but nowhere
developing economy in production, nor giving
due attention to that diversity of labor and of
production which will secure the best results in
the long run. But the advancing settler from
the East now meets in Montana the advancing
settler from the Pacific coast. The area Of un-
occupied land is rapidly narrowing. Enormous
distance from the markets renders the farmer
too dependent on lines of transportation, and
too exclusive atten ton TO the raising OF wheat.
corn and cotton places him at the mercy of for
eign markets and governments. The changes
of tariff by Germany and France within the
past year warn the American farmer that he
can no longer afford to neglect those improve
ments and developments of his industry which

arc necessary to render it permanently pros
porous and independent.
Its time to remember that the more thorough
and skiful culture is often the cheaper; thac IL
costs less per bushel to raise twenty-five Dush-
els of wheat to the acre than to raise twelve
bushels. II is time to remember, too, that the
farmer who has to employ hands all the year,
in order to have their services during the sum
mer months only, wastes part oil MS prouuo-
tive force if he fails to so diversity ms industry
that his labor may be as far as possible en-
ployed in the winter also. 1t Is poor prom
that he can get on his corn when the crop Is
as large and the price is as low az IL Is tnis
wear. But if he can add the profits OF manu-
facturer to his profits as producer, anu turn
his corn and other products INTO hogs ana cat
flo tbrouoh the winter months, he will find both
his fields and his pocket enriched. Every WIN
ter consumers pay high prices for meats, putter'
cbeese and eggs. because there are too few
farmers who wisely keep the machinery OF pro-
duction running the year round. YET even Ill
the older States, where soil is scanty anu hosI
worn. some men of shrewdness and science ny
diversified and well distributed industry adapt
ed to the wants of the community, secure proh'S
which the great wheat farmers OF the west
cannot in the longrun surpass. Not long ago. In
a scientific association, paper was read NAM
tanning that, even upon New-Englands stony
soil, by raising corn for fodder and buying
cottonseed, beef could be produced cheaper
than in Texas and in such quantity as 70 supply
all Eastern markets.
The agriculture of this country has spread
over too many acres already. What 1t needs Is
to bring higher intelligence to its aid, and
to make each acre produce far more than
refore. We have not yet begun to realize the
productive capacity of this country, nor shall
we until the farmer makes a manufacturer OF
himself part of the year, learns to make all his
months produce wealth for him, and adapts his
industry more to the permanent and increasing
needs of the home market, so that he may be
less dependent on the changes of industry or OF
legislation abroad.
