There was an incredulous laugh at

perhaps. Jessie Beauchamp. Within the

Before Jessie could answer Sue was
up the stairs and out OF sight. She
smiled family as she took up the can

and sighed as she noted the paleness
of her face.

The land is in the highest
state of cultivation, and every
acre of it is put to practical use.
Everything in farming imple-
ments that modern ingenuity has
devised is used upon this extern
sive farm, and all about the place
wears a 10th century air. Stand
ing on the premises and viewing
the magnificent panorama of ma
ture there unfolded, one cannot
but agree with Bancroft, the
great historian, when he says:
mo method of gain is more
grateful in itself, or more worthy
of freemen, or more happy in
rendering service to the whole
human race, than the tillage of
the soil. No occupation is near
er Heaven!" Again, one cannot
refrain from contrasting the ex-
isting farming conditions with
those of even a quarter of a cy-
Gle ago! On this farm, in it's
various branches, are employed
some twenty-five men, and the
work is in a perfect state of sys-
temization-all being under the
personal supervision of an eX-
pert overseer, or foremen. All
this takes one back to the condi-
ton of man when the morning of
science dawned upon his brain,
and before he had heard the sub
lime declaration that the uni
verse is governed by law-to the
dark ages, when Science found |

and reaping with a sickle; with |

feel it were we'll to be here.

valuable and beautiful farm some
three years ago; and, since that
time, has bent his energies to the |
