is not upon our failures that we
build, but upon our successes, and
as one business speculation may off
set all the losses on the ledger, so
one achievement in science may
overbalance all the defeats.
The ignorant man may be a
doubling Thomas, and sneer at pa
pers, and books OF knowledge and
science, but upon the solid rock Of
science is based the progress of all
agriculture. 1t is not this manner
of man that you have to thank for
the advancement agriculture has
made, but rather the city farmer
whose mistakes you have laughed
at and profited by; and whose sue
cesses have stimulated you to great
er things.
Brains are the capital that unite
science and agriculture. No wiser
precept was ever uttered than to
practice with science Let our
experiment stations do the pains
taking, expensive investigating, and
the farmers profit by their results.
Let Us use wisdom in our work, and
combine the sc eace and art, as cir
cnmstances make it seem most adj
visable. In conclusion I would
say, educate yourselves in your bns
mess and become acquainted with
the factors which make it success
or failure. Educate your children,
and let Observation-Disclosures themselves
with those studies that aid in max
ing life's work, whatever it may be,
a grander success than it would
have been without this knowledge
Let our young farmers take the
places of their fathers, as men
whose scholarship is the key to
their success in business, whose
knowledge of the principles of
| growth of plants and animals, and
of the chemistry of soils, manares,
and feeding stuffs, will be the foun-
dation of their prosperity.
AS Tbaer say IS, "the man who has
not studied the science of agricult-
ture can make little use of books, or
even the best of them. He knows
not how to arrange the new ideas
which they unfold, and be canno,
follow them in their fullest exten t.
All that he dares do is to rea
those books which have the closest
relation with the circumstance in
which he is placed"
