Insanity on the Farm.

Wenotice that Dr. Draper of the Brat
tleboro Asylum for the Insane confirms,
incidentally, in his last report, the views
expressed by us recently in regard to
the most frequent cause of insanity in
the families of farmers in New En-
gland. This able alienist says:
The heritage of mankind is subject
to great variations, and there can be no
question but that its drift, undirected
and unmodided, would be in many cases
towards destruction; but the course of
every mans life is to some extent in
his own hands. Not only may an in
born tendency be held in check, but ii
may often be detected from the original
course, and even decided mischiefs
that may have been sustained may be
repaired Human nature is often eX-
hibited to view in its truest colors in
a state of insanity. Every psychology
cal student has, doubtless, been aston
ished in rejecting upon this matter,
and, recognizing this fact, at the al
most involuntary inhibitory power eX-
ercsed over mankind in general by
those acquired influences which are the
result of educational agencies. The
safeguards of society are really much
greater than are ordinarily realized.
The sway exercised over the masses by
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1886-10-27

the customary conventionalities of life
bears rule over many a hayward
prompting and holds in check very
decided tendencies to abandonment
"Pride," said distinguished divine of
generation ago, "is the ruling prin-
ciple of an unsanctified world y; and L,
so far from condemning it, he ac-
credited it with most salutarv power,
in the absence of a worthier motive
! We might almost venture the assertion
that one is safe so long as he is respon-
sive to environing influences, and only
in danger when he ceases to be affected
by public sentiment, by social dicta, or
when he turns within and preys upon
himself. Egotism is usually exalted in
the insane, but its manifestations vary
greatly. Elevated personal apprecia-
ton, or conceit, is the most harmless
and superficial phase of it. 1t takes its
strongest and most baneful hold upon
a person when it absorbs everything to
itself and sequestrates its rule.
1t is unfortunate to be in the world
and not of it. SO long as one realizes
and acts in accord with the realization
that he is but an individual among the
multitude, and that the welfare of the
whole is the happiness of each, we
may look for healthy activities; but
when this grand general fact is lost
sight of, morbid action begins and a
process is set up which is fatal to the
individual. Involution instead of evo-
luton then goes on, and time weaves
about him a network, in which, as a
chrysalis, lost to his fellows, he awaits
the final transformation. Every life,
however modified, is colored by its in
born tendencies. The sources of hap
piness or misery spring largely from the
constitutional predispositions of indi-
viduals. A naturally cheerful person
any environment prevailing amount
of enjoyment, while one of gloomy
cast lives among forebodings, and, as
one without light, gropes silently along
life's pathways, half fearing to tread
where others have gone before him.
and stunning the healthful sunlight
which at every turn beams upon him as
upon all others. Such natures are most
liable to become morbid and to glide
slowly into the realm of delusion and
melancholy.
In the experiences of asylum life,
not few seem to have thus drilted in
to confirmed insanity. The early view
of life may have been cramped one.
the outlook through the narrow window
of self-interest, opening out upon a
very limited field of observation, and
this hedged about by suspicion and
envy. No greater misfortune can be
labored under than that of childhood
passed without opportunities for ex-
pansion. AS the years move on, the
little circle becomes the whole world,
and all outside is viewed with vague
and incorrect ideas and with more or
less of distrust. TO be mentally healthy,
one must be largely unconscious of

Queen COw---Must She Go?

The Farm Journal is very blue about
oleo. 1t says the new law of congress
will do no good, and adds: eve be-
lieve the swine-butter business now
enters upon new era in which manu-
factories will greatly multiply, those
now in existence will largely extend
their operations, and the output of the
base product will be immensely in
creased; and that this will be at the ex-
pense of, and to the great detriment of,
the legitimate butter business"
This, and all the rest of the grunting
and groaning on the subject, we look
upon as utter foolishness. Butter used
to be so cheap in our northeastern
states, before the war, that everybody
got to eating it, but everywhere else
in the world butter is, and always has
been, luxury. One of the reasons why
it did not have that position in our
early history was, no doubt, because
very little of it was good enough to be
luxury. Many people in those days
had rather have pork-fat or molasses on
their bread than such butter as they got.
But good butter is luxury of the very
highest class, and in country so full
of well-to-do families as ours, the de-
mand for good butter is as safe as the
market for good whiskey and good
cigars-and we hope far more lasting
In fact, the call for first-class butter,
such as all farmers might make if they
knew enough, but such as not one
farmer in five does make to-day, is al
ways greater than the supply. Such
butter has not retailed in our cities
lower than thirty-fve cents, (and very
little of it so low during all the de-
preston that is attributed (but not all
due) to oleo competition. Oleo is no
competitor at all to first-cass butter
never has been, never will be, never
can be. If we make surplus of real
first-class butter it will not, even then,
decline in price, for no part of the
world has enough, and thousands of tons
of it could be shipped to-day if ship
pers could get it, but they cannot We
repeat that but few farmers know how
to make the best butter, and many, who
have called themselves dairymen for
years, don't know it when they see it.
Sounds rough, don't it? But it is the
solemn fact

A Stiff Test.

A correspondent of the Home Farm
speaking of village and city folks who
feel strong call to the life of farmer,
addresses such an one thus:
Now, firstly, sir, of course you have
decided 10 go to farming-to let you tell
it, you have always liked farming,
although you have never lived upon
one. Perhaps, like many more of us,
you have found farmers daughter for
wife-did your counting upon the
farm-with very agreeable company,
perhaps, drove the cows from the pas
ture and raked after, during part of
haying, picked Strawberries and en-
ioyed life. No wonder you like farm
ing. We all do, Chat kind) But now
you assume sterner duties, there is no
one to do your planning, no one to do
your hard work, no one to furnish you
bread and butter but yourself With
your limited knowledge of farming,
should, advise you to, before purchasing
a farm, find some good, reliable old
farmer and make with him the following
contracts, viz: To build one mile of brush
fence; to dig one-half mile ditch
through solid, blue clay soil; to clear up
with axe and bush scythe and burn
over ten acres of that low ground COW
cred with birch bushes, alders, hard
hack, etc. After fulfilling these con-
tracts, if the old farmer says they are
well done, and you still candidly claim
to like farming, 90 ahead and | will
risk you.

Winter Flowers.
Mrs. WAvERLY.

A single bud or blossom, very mod
est plant in the dreary time of winter,
often gives us more pleasure and gen.
uine delight than whole garden full
of the most exquisite flowers during the
symmetry abundance. This is the chief
reason why the Chinese primrose has
such firm hold on our affections. 1t
blooms during the dark days of Decem-
Der and January. Keep the young
plants growing and repot when required.
We hardly know of any class of plants
that may be grown with as little care
and trouble and give better satisfaction
as winter bloomer than the hyacinth.
1t is a general favorite, and deserves
to be, as it has no rival in variety and
delicacy of color, in fragrance and in
ease of cultivation, and can be grown
in water, moss or any light soil, in pots
or boxes, in the house or in the garden.
We prefer, and strongly recommend to
our friends, the single sorts, which grow
stronger and more perfect than the
double ones and are fully as pretty. To
produce flowers in early winter, the
bulbs should at once be planted in pots
in good soil, or placed in damp moss or
in the hyacinth glasses-kept for sale
by all fiorists-and put into moder-
ately cool and dark place CELLAR until
the roots well-nigh fill the pot or glass.
They are then ready for Towering and
may be placed in the window or con-
servatory. For spring Towering out
doors, the bulbs can be planted at any
time between now and winter.

Sweet EnSilage, Etc, Etc.

Mr.. Ed. A. Barnard, of Three Rivers,
p. O., writes to us as follows on sub
jects of interest to every farmer:
"Sweet fermentation has already
been tried here by few of our plain,
uneducated farmers. They simply fol-
low the advice given in our French
Journal. AT our last dairy convention,
they reported publicly and with all de-
tail, their entire success. But the
modus operandi is simple, and rests,
might say, entirely on the use of a
common thermometer. There is no
need for hurry nor of extra help. 1t
takes about three hundred days to fill up
IA siXteen-feet deep silo. A layer of three
feet of uncut fodder-all fodder uncut
except maize-is put in. After two or
three days the heat attains one hun
dred twenty-five degrees Fahrenheit;
then new layer of equal depth is laid.
Generally two layers are thus put in
three days. However, as one hundred
fifty degrees does not injure the fod-
der, rainy day does not call for I'M
comfortable, nasty, heavy work The
heat is ascertained simply by introduce
ing the thermometer to a depth of
about fifteen inches. After some layers
are put in, the settling without
any trampling at all except on the
edges-is enormous, fully woinches per
day. This explains why it takes thirty
days to attain height of sixteen feet.
awe shall use three feet of muck to
weigh down the enslage. The bottom
of silo being on level with, and adj
joining, the cellar, the muck will find
its way over the manure aohen dry, as
the heat of the silo should dry it some
what. Earth is a better seal, evidently,
than stone. We have been feeding
green buckwheat, with well-formed
grain, just coloring, to our cows. They
have done wonderfully well on this
food alone. l shall experiment on the
same food for ensilage, in connection
with Canadian (very early) fodder corn
and German millets of various kinds.
The feeding ratio of buckwheat is given
as 1:3. This richness must have some.
thing to do with our five and three.
fourths pounds of butter to one hun
bred pounds of Canadian Jersey milk
and that from common scrubs for about
one-half.
Fall rye and clover, with buckwheat
and Canadian corn fodder, shall supply
our entire cow diet next year, if al
goes well. | then expect two crops o.
fodder yearly on very poor sandy soil
Should the manure and fertilizers prove
insufficient in quantity, some rye an(
some clover shall be be plowed in t.
carry our manure supply further on
Yet, we are so far north, and so stu
ated, that frosts are to be dreaded il
the latter part of August. Our secon,
crop must therefore be ready then TO
the silo. Very few farmers in America
can be so hardly pressed by a shor
season. My aim is to manure heavil
the groWing crop, fall rye and clover
thus losing no time in putting our corr
in the ground after the early cut fodde
is ensilaged. The drill, sowing tire
rows of corn, with fertilizers, at a time
becomes wonderfully valuable in preca
rious circumstances.

size, says the New York ETdnliner.
