Divide the Pasture.

The pasture is usually one broad
stretch of land, all of which is con-
stantly accessible to the stock con-
fined. Not one pasture in hun
hundred, perhaps, is divided so as
to give the animals only a portion
at time. No one who has ever
tiled 1T or observed the effects of
such an arrangement, can doubt
the benefits of change of pasture.
1t is benefit to the pasture itself,
and a still greater benefit to the
stock. 1t effects may not be quite
so noticeable on young stock turned
out ito tpick a living; but upon
mich cows that have to do more
than simply hold their own in flesh,
it is altogether different. A change
of pasture works wonders with
them. In fact, the flow Of milk
cannot be kept up without an occa-
sional change of pasture, unless,
indeed, there be so extensive q
range that only a small portion of
it can be touched. Take a pasture
of say two acres to the COW, which
is about the average. 1t will be
kept continually fouled over, trod-
den and picked from end 70 end ev-
cry day. -
Constantly close picked pasture
land is the first to suffer from
douth. 1t has but scant growth to
protect it roots from the hot sun
and drying winds. 1t has no rest
from the time stock Is turned on in
turned on in spring until taken of
in autumn. 1t cannot produce well
under this treatIrent and is injured
as pasture land.
How much better to keep por-
ton of it at rest; or rather, give,
it all a rest in turn. BY dividing it
each portion could have a chance
to rest and freshen up altern ately.
The stock could be kept in one
part for two or three weeks and
then turned into the other. A piece
of grass land that is not trodden or
fouled over for two weeks in the
growing season, picks up wonder
fully. The rains wash it off clean,
and the grass gets a nice start so
that when the animals are turned
In again it is like the first spring
picking.
1t does not cost much to divide
the pasture that is already fenced
about. A very few dollars outlay
in labor, money or both will do it.
The actual money gain in a single
season will usually more than
equal the expenditure. 1t is won
derful that our pastures stand so
well under the treatme mt that they
get.

The Early Bird and the Worm.

A father had been lecturing his
young hopeful upon the evils of
staying out late at night and get
ting up late in the morning.. q
"You will never amount to any
thing" he continued, unless you
turn over a new leaf. Remember
that the early bird catches the
worm"
"How about the worm, father"
inquired the young man, wasn't be
rather foolish to get up SO earlyt"'

solemnly, ''that worm hadn't been

nTbera is a Wrong.n

There is, alas! too much truth in
what an old correspondent of the
N. Y. Tribune says: Farmers do
not obtain more than half of the
amount the consumer pays for
meat. The butchers are to greedy,
and many OF them apparently con-
scienceless. They are selling cuts
now just as high as high as when
live stock cost them from one-third
to one-half more. Several butch
ers offered me for a lot of small
but nice lambs from 81 to $l.50
each. l had them butchered and
sold the quarters to thesvillage peo-
pie at 9 cents a pound, and they
brought me from $3.50 to SO each
and the pets about 60 cents. The
other parts of the carcasses paid
for all the trouble and time spent.
There should be closer relation be-
tween farmers and consumers. 1t
is for the interest Of both. l have
no objection to the chandler" but
do most seriously object to their
gouging me and robbing the con-
sumner. They should be satisfied
with a fair recompense for their la
Dor. The producer is entitled to
his share of what consumers are
willing to pay. If consumers, who
are mainly manufacturer or trades
people, were not so stupid they
might see that the more farmer
can sell at a remunerative pric
the more money he will have to buy
their wares with.
The privilege and duty of the
consumer is thus plain-to &C
around the greedy middlemen anC
put himself to some trouble to en-
courage the backbone of prosperity
in this country, the farmers to rails,
good meat and other things anC
buy direct from them. This sort o
trade would revive meat production
now deadened and supplanted b,
the western dressed meats; and j
would also help dairymen to fine
some prosperity in their calling
Consumers are paying almos
twice as much for good butter a
the dairyman gets; and 1t is al
outrage that the retailer or groce
should get nearly as much for mer,
handling as the maker for all cos
and labor of production.

Well to Remember.

That sleep is the best stimulant,
nervine safe for all to take.
That it is better to be able to say
no than to be able to read Latin.
That cold air is not necessarily
pure nor warm air necessarily i'm
pure.
That cheerful face is nearly as
good for an invalid as healthy
weather.
That advice is like castor oil, easy
enough to give but hard enough to
take.
That there are men whose friends
are more to be pitied than their en-
emies.
That grand temples are built of
small stones and great lives made
up of small events. 80
That nature is rag merchant
who works up every shred and part
and end into new creations.
That an open mind, an open hand
and an open heart will everywhere
lind an open door. a.
That is not enough to. keep the
poor in mind; give them some
thing to make them keep you in
mind.

MEXICAN REFORM.

The System of the States Collecting I'm
port Duties on Goods in Transit AboI-
ishsd.
CITY OF MEXICO. Nov, 27.-An impor-
tant economic reform was formally pro-
claimed yesterday. A movement has been
going on for some time for putting an end
to the system of taxation whereby the
States collected duties on national and for
eign merchandise in transit through their
respective territories, system which has
been pronounced by railway managers more
harmful to the development of the internal
commerce of the country than any
other plan that could have been
devised. In May last a consttu-
tiOnal amendment was submitted to the
States fOrbidding the imposition of transit
duties, import duties on products OF other
States and on the expectation of merchan-
disc, either manufactured articles or pro-
ducts of the soil. The amendment also fOrbids
the States to assign special routes for the
conveyance of goods of native origin, as has
heretofore been done; also to put higher
duty OH foreign goods than will be fixed
by federal law. 1t is expected that Con-
gresS will fix a uniform tax of five per
cent ad valOrem. This amendment having
been adopted by the majority of the
States has received the sanction of
both chambers of Congress and was
proclaimed in the usual form, being read in
various points in the city and copies Of it
posted on walls. The ceremony took place
between nine o'clock and noon yesterday,
troops forming part of the official process
sion through the city.
