AGRICULTURAL.

When the benefits that come from the system of combining stock raising with general farming are so apparent. il is remarkable that so many men go on year after year fol- lowing the same routine that they did when their farms were first occu- pied. They draw off their grain and hay every season, and although the crops have grown lighter they fail to heed this evidence that they are exhausting the fertility of their land. It is only a question of time when if they would raise a crop of grain that will bring them any profit at all, they must return to the land an equivalent of what has been carried off. If they undertake to do this bv purchasing fcrtilizing material, they have constant outloy each NttI Nilil llp i'N'li IT NN' l'' '''7 'i'N crop may he increaccd. When stock raising k combined with grain-grow- Ing. there iS the constantly improving condition of the land. and in addi- ton to this. the income from the herds and focks that cause the im- provement in the soil.
 No considerable quantity of what is grown can be used on the farm. saving the time and labor required to dispose of it. when farmer hay ing no stock to consume it, must de- liver it at distant market. taking the chances of being able to do this when favorable conditions admit of disposing of if at satisfactory price. Then too. there is the advantage that comes of not being dependent to such on the yield of marketable value of one kind of product. In di- versilied farming. when grain yields little of no profit, the farmer is for tunate in having stock to dispose of to make up the deficiency that, un- der ordinary circumstances, might have proved an embarrassment.
 That the most successful farming is where these two interests. grain growing and stock-raising, are com bined, is apparent to any one who looks over the most improved farm ing sections of the country. Herds and Flocks.

Success can only he attained by a strict observance of the laws of sue cess. These are, first, attend to and overlook your business yourself |; don't trust to a free nigger or a lazy white man; second, always com mence in time and blow deep in preparation; if you can break the clay knee deep without turning it on the surface, so much the better: fer tilize well and cultivate shallow corn should be put six inches in the ground and covered one and half or two inches. othat it will be below the surface when il comes up.
 Raise all the corn, meat, oats and other grain that you need to run the farm. It k q reflection on man x farming sense to have to send on the Northeast for corn and meat in the spring, when you can raise all you can consume on the farm; then raise as much cotton as you please.
 Raise and save all the manure you can on the farm and compost with bone-dust or phosphate. Keep no useless stock to eat up the profits of the farm.
 Rotate crops, and don't run the land to death with the same crops year after year.
 Be honest; pay your debts. The world cannot respect dishonest man, and he is put al q great disad- vantage with a little hope of sue cess.

We again urge upon the farmers, and especially those who have much stock to Winter. to try sowing corn either broadcast or in drills; say four to eight inches between hills, and rows three feet wide. If sown in drills, fairly good corn can be made with one blowing. and fodder enough for eight heard of cattle made on an acre of land.

Jobs Patient Wife.

man, but as partial compensation for it he has had the sympathy of the human race for four thousand years. But it has not been SO with Jobs wife. Nobody has ever spoken a kind word of her. On the contrary she has been held up for forty centu rics as 2 horrible example. But for all that we are confident the poor woman deserves better place in history than she has ever occupied. If she was sour-tempcred she had enough to give an acid tingc to her disposition. She was made to drink the drugs from very bitter emp. and it is probable that she bore her troubles with about as muuh equan- imity as the average woman would do.
 In the first place she was suddenly reduced from luxury to pcnury. Any unfortunate woman who has suffered his ordeal knows just the frame of mind poor Mrs Job was if.
 In the next place she was bcreft of her children. There is no grief so hurdensOme a. that which falls upon mothers heart when the grave hides her children Il from her sight.
 In addition to this accumulaation of sorrows, she was left with an invalid husband on her hands. Job was covered with boils. and e1pc- riencc had taught us that there iS no more eXasperating patient than a man with boil, on him. There are wives. and good wives. too. in this Christian land of our whose lives have been made most miserable for days and weeks at a time by , hus- band with perhaps from five hundred to thousand boilS on him Is it any wonder that the woman cncour- aged per husband to terminate his existence The only wonder is that she diden't cut her own throat in in despair.
 i But these were not all the troubles that Jobs wife had to bear Her husbands friends came on a vist to him and took posses sion of the house for six weeks at time. Other wo- men. and good women. too, have had to endure the atlliction. and they can very easil ' account for Mrs. Job $ exhibition of bad temper. Job got worried with the three visitors him self, and vet he didn't have to wait on them. to clean up their rooms, to wipe the tobacco juice from the par Tor carpet every day, to sweep out the mud they carried in on their boots. and submit to the thousand and one annoyances that a male visi tor gives the housekeepcr.
 IL is about time that somebody was raising q voice in de fcnse ofJob S wife. and saying a kind word for the poor woman who for four thousand years has suffered the sings of un- just criticism in accomplishing sil- ence.
 There are q great many Job $ wives in the world to-day. We meet them every day. They may not have husband with boils on their bodies, but they have husbands who go to the clubs of evenings. They have husbands selfish enough to devote all their time to business and portion of that time of rights belongs to the woman, the charm of whose existence in his companionship. The Jobs wives of to-day are the women who are burdencd with the cares and sorrow of this life. and sorrow of this life, and who get no sympathy. And their name is legion St. Paul Globe.
