The Weak Point in Farming.

The life of farmer has often been
called life Of drudgery. There is no

are in harmony with rural life. The
weak point in American farming has
been the lack of appreciation of the
equipments necessary to successful
career. Too many men have been will
ing 20 be thieves of the soils resources
that they might swell their bank ac-

To be happy at home is the ultimate
result of all smbition-the end TO
which every enterprise and labor tends
and OF which every desire prompts the

every man must be known by those

either of his virtue or felicity; for
smiles and embroidery are alike occa-
sional; and the mind is often dressed
for show in painted honor and hcti-
ticus benevolence. N. Y Ledger.
