DIVERSITY of crops is a partial Sc
curity against failure. No farmer
should rely on single crop as there
will be too many chances against
him from drouth, inferior seed, short
growing seasons and excessively wet
weather. Some crops will thrive
when others fail The safest mode
is to grow several kinds.

two stout bay horses, and driven by .

going among the villagers. The only
question with them was: "Whom has
Mrs. Bailey in her carriage to-day?"
For it was seldom that it held only
her own family. which consisted Of two
sons and two daughters. When the
church bells began to ring, Mrs. Bailey
with her four children, seated in the
carriage. would start to town, mile
away.
Presently she would overtake, per-
haps, old Grandpa Benson, her nearest
neighbor, trudging along with bent
form and limping step upon which she
would hustle both OF the boys out Of
the carriage as soon As the coachman
could open the door and let down the
steps.
Get out boys" she would say. "You
are young and strong. Let Grandpa
Benson have your seat 1t is too hot sor
him to walk"
The boys would get out not always
reluctantly nor yet always joyfully.

She need not wait long, for before the
