Farming as a Business.

1t is not every farmer who con-
ducts his farm OH business principles.
The majority of them keep no ac-
counts, place no value upon the capi-
tai invested, and make no comparisons
at the end of the seasons with view
of discovering the true state of affairs
from business point of view. AS
rule, when one comes in pos
session of farm it is used as a source
of production, but that spirit of rival
ry and enterprise so noticeable with
those who invest in other directions
is lacking, and in that respect the
farmer is behind the age, for unless
he learns to value time, labor, capital,
and products he will always be at sea
and unable to arrive at definite con.
clusions or results. Business men
are very careful how they invest. They
do nothing blindly, but carefully cal
culate the cost of each venture, and
endeavor to solve the results or the
future in advance. They do not pur.
sue the same channels in every case,
but willingly drop those enterprises
that are Improbable in order to give
preference to those that seem more
assuring. Every item Of their under.
takings is carefully noted, and strict
and accurate system of bookkeeping
enables them to avoid floss and reap
profits.
The farmer on the contrary, does
not farm in a business manner. His
crops, as rule, are routine without
regard to prospective loss or gain.
He keeps no books, but balances his
accounts by the amount left over

Following are few of the many
homely sayings for which Rev. Sam
Jones of Georgia is becoming noted.
He is now holding revival meetings
in Nashville. Every thing he says
smacks strongly of good horse sense
and he is meeting with wonderful
success. II despise theology and bot
any, but I love religion and flowers"
"Talk about an honest man starving
to death" he says in a recent sermon !;
"they wont starve. God will feed an
honest man if he has to putth angels
ON half rations."
"What's culture WORTH" inquiries
he in another connection. I'd rather
have to learn my A b C's in heaven
than to know Greek in hell"
Many good Christians sleep so
sound that the devil can come up and
saw offtheir heads with dull caseknife
before they wake.
The best woman in this town II the
woman who has waded through
trouble that an angels heart could
not have endured. When God wants
to strike us with Affections let us not
run, but stand and take 'em.
A lie is always on the down grade,
but the truth you have to hitch an
engine to.
can get along better with most
everything in this world than with
people who talk too much.
A woman that marries a man with
whisky on his breath is the biggest
fool in the world, except the one who
stirs his toddy for him after she
marries him. If you don't like that
sort Of talk you can back out here.

from all his expenses at the end of
the year. He may be able to know
that flock of sheep or a crop OF
wheat has been profitable, but he can
not tell where he made mistakes CT
availed himself of favorable oppor-
tunities. The relative cost as to pro-
portion of food, loss of available mat
ter from soil, expense for labor and
teams, and many other important
items, cannot be computed, whi lie the
actual amount of capital invested,
with dividend and interest therefor
is seldom taken into account at all.
We do not wish to claim that all
farmers are thus negligent of true
business matters. There are some
who act on. the contrary. and who
have contributed not little to the
advancement of a better system of
management among farmers; but as a
class, the farmers are not as methodi-
cal in their transactions and business
managements on the farm as they
should be, and until they rectify this
negligence they will always labor in
the dark, and fail to discern the pros
poets of the succeeding year, both in
| regard to the prices of the commodi-
ties they produce and the cost OF the
same. A farm represents a certain
| amount of capital, and should produce
| more than the interest alone, for the
frrmer is just as much entitled to a
dividend on his farm operations as is
the business man who manufactures
wares or ventures in trade. But in
order to emulate business enterprise
| the farmer must learn to know that
his operation of the farm is business
and the one case, is as important IN
the other, for without such no enter
prise can succeed. no matter how adj
mirably conducted otherwise. We
trust that with the opening of the
new year many farmers will make a
change in their methods and keep
strict business accounts.-American

The old Latin maxim of law that
"he who owns the soil owns it sky
high" does not apply to New York.
By an act of the lost New York legis-
lature, the proprietship ofthe land
owner in the superintendent atmos-
phere is limited to eighty feet in
height. All above that 10 public do
main, and exactly what use the state
expects to make of it is not apparent.
The eighty-feet restriction was pro-
badly necessitated by the numerous
accidents which have recently occur
red in towering builings, and because
of the inability Of the fire department
in New York city to throw water ef.
fectively to greater height.

There is q popular belief that pota-
toes are more exhaustive of fertility
than other crops, especiallycorn with
which they are most frequently COM
pared. On soils that are deficient in
vegetable matter potatoes have the
great disadvantage of not returning
any straw and other feed to keep up fer
tility. AS they exhaust the soil ofpot-
ash they are injurious to sandy soil,
whichis generally deficient in that
mineral. But on heavy land potatoes
are a better crop for subsequent seed
ing than any other. The greater
amount Of cultivationwhich this crop
requiresin growing and harvesting
breaks down thelumps and prepares it
for any thing that may follow it.

The capital invested in the dairy
business of the United States is COM
puted to be over 5000, 600, 900, and to
employ about 100000 men and nearly
100000 horses. An officer OF the
Erie producers association says:
1.-THE average cow yields about $50
gallons of milk year giving total
product Of 6,750,0O0,0O0 gallons.
Twelve cents a gallon Is a fair price to
estimate the value of this milk at-a
total return to the dairy farmer Of
$s1O,OOO,OOO. Fifty per cent of the
milk is made into cheese and butter.
1t takes q pounds Of milk to make
one pound of butter, and about 10 lbs.
OF milk to make one Id. of cheese.
There is the same amount Of nutrition
in 81 lbs. of milk that there is in l lb.
of beef. A fat steer furnishes so per
cent of bcneless beef, but it would
require about 24,0Oo, 900 steers, weigh
ing 1900 lbs. leach to produce the same
amount of nutrition as the annual
milk product does"

In Bon-Homme county, the Rus
sian Mennonites, who have large set
Elements there, hold weekly fair at
Scotland, one of the leading towns.
A thousand or more Of the farmers
gather there every Thursday, bring

ter-cattle horses, sheep cows, etc. 1t
is believed that many other localities
could find something of that sort con-
venient and profitable. .--Bathgate Sem
