In 1857 the plaintiff acquired one acre
of land just outside the town site of
Minneapolis, upon which he then built
and has ever since resided. By means
of an exchange the tract of land was, in
1877, reduced in size and changed i'll
form, so that when defendant com
menced proceedings to subject part
thereof to the satisfaction of his judg-
ment, it was 165X19S feet. The plaintiff
claims that, although the tract of land
upon which he resides largely exceeds
in amount the lot of ordinary size and
is within the limits of city containing
over 10000 people, and the territory
about him upon all sides and for miles
around is completely and thickly settled,
it is exempt because it has never been
plated or laid out.
Syllabus-A homestead which has
never been plated or laid out, subse
quently brought within an incorporated
town. city OF village by legislative ell
actment extending the corporate limits,
cannot be diminished or reduced in
area by the laying out or plating of
contiguous and surrounding lands by
other than the homestead claimants.

E.eI Us Farm Il Little.

Few people appreciate the lmpor
tance OF time, and especially is this
the case with the farming class Of
people. No man who fails to keep
pace with time can be successful. and
this rnle applies, if possible with
more force to farming than any
other %avocation. \ great many
farmers fail to commence their work
at the beginning Of the new year.
Hours, days, and even weeks, are
passed in making calculations and
plans, and dwelling on the feasibili-
1y of this or that method Of plant
ing. c~ultivating, ETC., while the
golden hours are swiftly passing
away, and too soon the balmy
weather Of spring warns them that
seed must 90 in the ground; and the
result is that systems, plans and
ideas are bundled and thrown into a
pile, and the seed hurried into the
ground before the soil is properly
prepared. Where such is the case
10 amount of subsequent labor can
secure a full harvest.
Successful farming requires well
matured plans, opportunely put into
execution. But the most essential
part of farming is work; timely
work; faithful work; intelligent
work. Work thatmakes every lick
count and every moment tell. 1t has
been said, that thought is the princi-
pie Of all Legitimate prosperity. But
knowledge without closely applied
energy is like faith without prac-
tice. If a farmer idles away his
time. and lets January and February
slip away unheeded, he might just
as vel! continue his idle dreaming,
for there is no such thing as over.
taking time in its fight. Farming
is an occupation that demands both
mental and physical force at the
same time. 1t is not wise to put off
for tomorrow what can be done
to-day. Every day brings new du.
ties and responsibilities; and as you
work, think OF your business, study
your interest, and be minute man
with your resolutions. Life is real
and life is earnest, if you want to
succeed. you must be in earnest, and
take time by the forelock. You see
it is a very easy matter to farm by
proxy and on paper, and the finest
farming in the world is done hat
way. But all. the same, there are
some underlying principles OF sue
cess which apply to all avocations,
and no man can succeed who ignores
them.

Crazy on Grasses.

The writer who has been preach.
ing grass culture and stock-raisins
forty years in Tennessee and .Geor-
gia calls attention to the following
statements of the Southern Agricnl.
-turist published at Montgomery,
Alabama.
''The editor of the Agriculturist
has written and talked so much
about grasses and stock that he has
been called by some of his friends as
~"crazy on grasses" On Saturday
we saw a farmer who is crazy on the
same subject. It was Brother J. G.
Galloway, Showdown. He believes
in Bermuda grass and stock, and had
on that day sold two colts of his
own raising for $500 cash. These
colts were raised at a comparatively
small cost, sired by Pickett and
were trained to work in double har-
ness. We saw the check and Mr..
Pratt, of Prattville was the purchas.
er. Such solid facts as these are
calculated to make men who have
been growing cotton for twenty
years and have not cleared 800, 90
crazy. Cultivated grasses and good
stock are the things which pay, don't
forget this. Mr.. Getaway maze his
money by buying a fine stud and
raising grasses. Why cannot you
do the same?
