cultural frolio mas yielded me many
happy honr and been constant source
or amusemene to iny friends. Other
farmers hayo como for miles and miles
to sit on my fence and watch me as
sought to tickle and amuse the earth
with nine pound hoo that it might
laugh again with rich crops Of red nose
briers and Devonshire bull thistles.
Hurrah for the farmers life
Three cheers for the meadow lark
Who will join me in glass OF nice
warm milk if the calf don't take it all?
Who will stroll with me up the noun
tain side at set of sun, where all is still,
and join me in quiet-still2
Most everybody likes the farmers
life, and If he don't keep his eye peeled
they will take it too.
But honestly feel that the American
farmer has somber future ahead He
must be the neighbor and competitor Of
the dull Drained rustic from the sites
and hordes and the east. He is no lon
ger like the thrifty colonist, whose prod
nets were in good demand, but except
III the most favored portions of the
Union he must battle his face in sweat
from early morn till close of day, know
ing that his crop will be no more valu-
able because he reads and writes than
that of the alien, or the old plantation
darby, or the Chinaman.
The Honest Farmers trust will not,
l fear, get the agriculturist out of the
Slough of despond SO swiftly as to de-
ceive the eye. AS soon as it gets into
good rnpni,tr nr,1o,- no,,1l c.,os.
complish this, l fancy that see smooth
gentleman from the Produce Exchange,
disguised i'll set of early mass whis-
kers and pair Of sun colored overalls
and splitting black ut times, worming

the management of the trust and sailing
away to the Holy Land with the reserve.
SEQ no way of relief Mt once for us
farmers, except to economize on our per-
fcctos and only use champagne during
harvest time.
Whenever l am oppressed by hard
times. 1 lay it to Cleveland and go on
about my business. He don't care q
cent what drink, and yet it affords me
u blessed relief
Contentment, after all, and philoso-
ply i'll the dark hours yield tho best div
ldends, Many who read this will say
that it is easy to talk thus Mt good
price per column, but only write that
l may tail up the feeble efforts of the
farm. Let mo urge every farmer to try
this. Have some other business connect
ed with your farming, such rs painting,
sculpture, telegraphing or whaling 1t
will take tho mind away from the lrudg-
cry of toll and moil
Poetry and its preparation are good
methods of relief for the farmer, and
not only give him joy, but cheer ones
fellow man.

"We acknowledge the compliment of
a serenade from the GRANVILLE Silver
Cornet band ON the occasion of its visit
to our city few days ago" wrote Edi-

Recently have received a circular
letter asking all farmers to unite and
band themselves together for the pur-
pose OF organizing Wheat and Cotton
trust, with view to controlling the
market. The letter is signed by G. E.
Farnum, M. D., of San Francisco, and
is quite tempting to the struggling
farmer, who feels that he has been for
years the victim of all sorts Of united
villainy
Whether the farmers can be united
by this means and made to act en- masse
"a problem which tho future alone can
solve. Eliminate breadstuffs and cot
