From the Net0 York Mail and Express
'Shoe pegs are made from white and sill
yer birch and white MAPLE" said shoe
findings dealer to a reporter "and only
the best selected bodies Of trees are used"
The wood is cut and hauled as wanted,
the sap-wood only being utilized and the
heart or red part removed and thrown
away. ...-.,
A New Hampshire shoe peg manufactur-
ing firm that produces &C, 900 bushels annu-

been found that the supply equals the de-

and seasoned in the process Of manufacture.
A shoe peg goes through eighteen different
hands or processes before it reaches the
market and is placed on sale, and 20 per
cent of cost is for labor. s
There are ten shoe peg factories in the
United States, employing about 800 hands,
having capital of $40, 900! While in thu
near past large quantity of shoe pegs were
imported from England, we now export to
that as well as almost all other European

Men of One Idea.

A very large delegation Of these men,
says the Mobile Register, visit the south
every season, looking for farm locations,
and they almost invariably go back dissat-
sfled with the country. One man is from
an producing region up north, and
when he sees very little doing with apples
In the lower south he gets discouraged and
goes home to stay. Another has wheat on
the brain, another hops, and another hay,
and all go back in disgust. The grass or
hay man is usually in the large majority,
and he cannot think of hay made from any
other than such growths as are produced
''up to hum" Talking of these grass men,
through the Southern Planter, Mr.. Isaac
II. Christian says: OF course, everybody
ought to raise some grass, and all they can
(and it won't take much study" to do it,;
but to advise the people Of the south to put
their sandy peanut, and cotton and garden
ing lands and their tobacco lands into small
grass. and let go as the main idea the great
staples, and go in competition in the cattle
and milk business with people who can't do
much else, brings a smile at the recollec-

him. The man had turnips on the brain. He
walked out with Waddill and remarked
that a lot of five acres, prepared for clover
seed, would be ian excellent place to put
turnips.n Further on he came to heavily
MANFRED plot prepared for trucking. "Ah,
he said. ''this would make magnificent

nared for corn. NOW, Waddill," said he,

to buyit in one year" Well, soft went on,

Give the Farm Credit.

The Breeders Gazette, in discussing the
very common assertion that the farm
doesn't pay, asks that the farm have due
credit for what it yields. Without realizing
1t or giving the farm proper credit for it,
the farmer draws his principal support
from the farm. 1t furnishes the vege-
tables, the fruit, the milk and butter, the
poultry. eggs, etc., consumed by the fami-
ly, and probably part of the fresh and al II
salt meats Only those who run TO the
butchers two or three times day, buy their
potatoes by the pound and their milk by
the pint, realize what all these things cost,
and what sum of money they will alb
sorb in the course of year. They en-
brace, in fact, as any one who is under the
necessity of purchasing everything knows
full well, the principal part of the expense
of living. All these things the farmer has
In profusion to start with. and they con-
stitute very considerable portion of what
should be expected from a moderately
sized farm. But many are unmindful of
this fact, and are dissatisfied with the farm
because it does not pay a large sum of
money over and above support. 1t pays
something beyond this point, which is
probably more than could be realized from
the same capital otherwise invested, and if
provided with better stock and given the
advantage of more care and study, there are
few farms which cannot be made to pay a
great deal better than they are now doing
under the management of dissatisfied own
ers who are looking for chance to sell out.
If the farmer expects to embark his CAPT
tai in trade, he is venturing upon lines en-
tirely new to his experience, in which com
petition is very close and often ruinous, and
where the ground is more than we'll occu
pied already by men trained up in the bust
ness and alert to perceive and avail them
selves of every advantage. Perhaps the
farmer will succeed here, where trained and
experienced men can make but little and
often ANONYMOUSLY fail. but the chances
are that no will lose instead of gain, and
with diminished capital and greater disad-
vantages to re-establish himself in farming
which he had no business to have aban-
dOned.
The fact is farmers have no occasion to be
dissatisfied with their condition. They are
better Off and doing better, as a
class, than any other class of
business men in the community. The farm
pays them more, all things considered, than
they would likely realize from the same
capital otherwise employed. They should
understand this and be satisfied with it. And
if the farm does not pay what it should pay,
give to the details of It's management some
of that patient and persistent attention and
stndy which is essential to success in gen
eral trade, and make it pay better. Pro-
cure improved stock, make its manage
ment and feeding a matter of constant
reading and investigation, and by better
methods and better farming give the farm
a better chance, and it will tell a better
story.

In the south may be- very accurately
gauged by the attention given to stock
breeding. Stock on the farm often utilize
with profit vegetable growths which would,
unconsumed, not only remain without profit.
but prove a positive injury. The most
prosperous farmers are those who avail
themselves of the animal factory to the
fullest extent, and while the cotton tot' is
wearing out his land the stock farmer is
annually and rapidly improving his. The
introduction of thoroughbred males all over
the south would in two years double the
value of live stock in that section. A
Merino buck introduced to a flock of ma
tive" ewes will raise the wool product in the
offspring from two and half to five pounds
per annum per capita. A short-horn bull
will add 200 pounds to the 2-year-old bull
locks.
