the husks on. with red peppers for the ber-

TWO OPINIONS.
Tho Economy OF Farming Operations on
Small and Large Farms.

The Economy OF Farming Operations on
Small and Large Farms.
We recently heard o farmer in one OF
our most prosperous Western States de-
clare that there was no kind OF farming
by which more than ton dollars an acre
could be made off the farm, and that
when mans land got to be worth, by
the natural development of the country,
800 an acre, it would pay him best to
sell 1t and buy in some other State
where land was cheap. An explanation
was vouchasafed by another farmer of
this statement, repeated with no small
amazement by the writer, and it was
that n man who tried to handle
too big farm would generally find that
statement true, but more than that could
be made by an intelligent farmer who
did not try to till too much land. The ex-
plaDation contains q good deal of truth;
the larger the farm, the more capital
and skill required, and there are not
wanting cases where an eighty or one
hundred acre farm will yield more,
under apparently similar external con-
ditions, than n 160 or 200 acre farm.
The American farmeris, however, land
greedy, as a general rule, and will often
permit himself and his family to suffer
even poverty for the sake of retaining
or increasing his land possessions. In
the race inaugurated by the competition
of to-day, more is needed than simply
industry and economy. These will
have their reward, but the addition of
common sense is essential to real sue
cnss and this rnmmnn cnpsa tpophoc

CHAPTER XXI.
JOHN PARSONS GIVES ERAsrus A II

JOHN PARSONS GIVES ERASTUS A HINT.
When the spring came, the level
ground about the shanty on the mount
tain side had been broken and sowed in
grain, or planted with vegetables; the
sloping ground above set in grape vines,
and hundred added fruit trees were
putting forth their buds and giving
promise of the future.
John Parsons was not so young and
spry as formerly, but he was still in
good health, and work was his only
escape from thought. Every day when
the rain was anything less than reg.
ular downpour, he was to be seen at
work somewhere about the premises,
and Mrs. Parsons and Lucy lent ready
| assistance.
| AS the house was small, the labor OF
| caring for it was small also, and on
pleasant days one or both of them were
to be found busily employed in tho
garden or vineyard.
| They made few acquaintances in
their new home. There was no neigh
Dor nearer than two miles away,
and not more than score of families
within circle easily reached for days
visit, and of these number were for
eigners, who, being unable to speak tho
language, did not mingle with their
American neighbors.
Occasionally a couple of women from
some OF the little ranches upon the other
side of the mountain would come TO
spend the day at the shanty, but not
often; and, although pleased to have
them come, Mrs Parsons and Lucy did
not always return their visits. This was
not because they did not feel kindly
towards their neighbors, but because
they felt little inclination 10 go from
home, and because they were busy,
whenever the weather would admit
of it, in helping to get the place in
shape to produce living for the family
And so the spring and summer passed.
and fall came again.
They now had an abundance of vege-
tables; the two COWS which they had
brought from the old place, and which
found pasturage in the hollows of the
hills, supplied them with an abundance
of milk and butter, and even with a
small surplus to sell; and this, with the
chickens and turkeys that thrived SO
finely and wandered at will up the
mountain side and down the gorge at
the foot of the level field, kept them
supplied with groceries.
OF clothing they had a good supply
when they came, and We're not obliged
to purchase. either for garments or
bedding, for some time 10 come, and so
did not suffer for anything except from
sense OF their losses and wrongs, and
for the want of companionshlp.
They heard from Jennie and her hus.
band every few weeks. Ensign had
been given the place promised him.
They were living in the outskirts of the
city, in little cottage which they had
bought on monthly payments, and were
comfortable and happy, as young mar.
rled folks who are blessed with gooe
health and plenty OF faith in each othsl
aud the future always are.
