A Chanter on Giving.

The man who can give his
daughter a ten-dollar bill with
out a fling at the extravaganza
Of women, without a sneer at
their love Of dress, without a
melancholy reference TO i'm
minent bankruptcy, without,
indeed, a single unkind remark,
is as rare as a daughter who
never wants a ten-dollar bill.
We have often wondered
whether fathers realize how
their daughters dread TO ask for
money. They have to face q
torrent Of grumbling and a host
Of complaints, which are often
very unjust, for the economical
daughter receives about the
same dose as the extrayagant
one.
A recent writer says that a
desire for pocket money drives
thousands Of girls into man
ufacturing poor love stories for
the periodicals., and that this il
true we know from personal ex.
perienee. Not long ago a young
girl Of our acquaintance went
TO her father with a request for
money. Well, things had gone
wrong that day, and pater fam.
ilias spoke some very hasty,
sharp words TO his daughter.
and she came from the library
with q pair Of flushed cheeks
and angry eyes. She was not
quite aixteen; a sturdy-limbed,
plucky girl, and what do you
suppose she did, There was a
fall Of snow that night, and the
next morning she shoyelled the
snow from all the sidewalks In
the neighborhood, thus winning

some pocket money, greatly to
the modification of her parents,
and the amusement of her
friends. But all girls have
neither the strength nor the
courage for such feats. They
suffer severely from their sense
of helplessness.
But now we are wandering
from our subject into deep wat
er, for we are writing Of givers,
not workers, and we conclude
with a query, the answer to
which is, perhaps, a trifie puzzl-
ing: Does the oft repeated
quotation, "God loveth a cheer
full giver," apply only to the
conscience dollar slipped into
the contribution box?

THE Sentinel advises the gem
tlemen of Winston TO pull to-
gether. 1t is in unity there is
strength; it is in discord there is
weakness. That is good advice.
It's what we have been telling
'em here, too. The Sentinel
goes on to say, further: A kind
word for this or that enterprise
costs you nothing and in the end
it may prove a handsome invest
ment. Men sometimes forget
they selfishly come to the con-
clusion that they have a mono
poly of unkind words, when in
reality they are monkeying with
the blade Of a dangerous weap-
on; it's the other man that will
hold it by the handle to repel
your unjust assaults. We do
not suppose for a moment that
these remarks would apply to
any one here, but they are made
for what they are worth and
would be worth a good deal to
anyone contemplating doing
what they advise against should
they heed them.

WEDNESDAY, July %, 1891,
The Rright Side Of Farming.

There is a way to accomplish
every possible result in this life
if one has only the patience and
skill to find it out. Often, too,
the skill is born of patient en-
deavor. Bear this in mind.
"A striking illustration of the
truth Of these sayings is shown
in a Connecticut farm at New
Canaan. The land consisted
mostly of rocky hillsides, with
powders imbedded all over the
surface. These had to be dug
out by hand before any crop
would grow there. The large
meat and grain interests Of the
country long since went to the
far west. 1t would be madness
for a New England farmer to
attempt grain farming in COM
petition with the west. Yet
here on these stony hillsides,
with no good market very con-
yenient, with the much abused
middleman even keener scented
than he is in the west, two part
ners, brothers, have already
laid up a competency and are
realizing a fortune.
How didIthey do it? They &C
complish it by thoroughly un-
derstanding what they can do
with their land. Their father
began the BUSINESS before them
by starting a nursery. He saw
that something must be done,
or his would be added to the
long list of abandoned New
England farms. So he began
slowly and cautiously chang
ing his farming to fruit and for
est tree raising. There are now
$50 acres in nursery, all thriv-
ing and paying well. But it is
watched and tended as carefully
as il it were a rich mans orchid
house, and improved methods
and stock are adopted as fast as
they are known to be reliable.
The partners say that their pay
ing crops are two-nursery
stock and summer boarders.
Thefarm now contains 500 acres,
and it is all run in the way to
promote the interests of two
paying crops. In order that
there may be no waste, and that
the most may be got out of ev-
cry foot Of land, 800 pigs are
reared annually and dairy cows
are kept. Besides there are for
work fifteen horses and six oxen.
Thirty men are employed and
boarded on the place. Nearly
everything produced on this
model farm is consumed on the
place-except the nursery trees.
The soil Of the Connecticut
farm was as unpromising as soil
could be, and the market for
the little that could be raised
on it was not much better. Yet
here are two men who enjoy
every comfort that man needs,
are accommodating money solely
through the use of their brains.
They studied the situation care
fully, adapted their products to
the demand and came out on
top. What they did in Con-
necticut other agriculturists can
do almost anywhere else in the
Union. The farmer has had
reason to complain of hard times
but LET him remember, above
all things, that the Lord helps
those who help themselves. II
the crops he has always raised
are a drug in the market then
he can do as the Connecticut
men did, produce other Things
that are in demand. Brains will
solve it, and seeming accidents
will always point the way q
the thing thatwill besuccessful
twill give the cue. II did this
in the case Of the New Canaan
paying staples.
