SYSTEM ON The FARM.
The Only Way to Insure Satisfactory and
Profitable Results.

On many farms the most apparent
causes of failure are the want of sys-
tenn, wastefulness, and misdirected la
Dor. 1t doubtless is far more difficult
for the farmer to reduce his business to
a definite system than it is for the aver
age merchant, but that is no reason
why he should abandon all attempts to
do so, and work blindly. There are
many farmers who are careful men,
who are striving to reduce their opera
tions to systematic rules, and who are
doing good deal in this line in the
way of keeping daily records of the
milking of each COW, in keeping ledger
accounts with each important crop,
and in carefully recording the average
work done by faithful men in the sew.
exal occupations Of the farm. These are
the xind of farmers who are, as a rule,
successful. They quickly detect a leak
when one occurs, and can usually
tell, after year, or two of experi-
ence, which operations of the farm ere
profitable and deserve extension, and

business as usually carried on is large

which the farm is adapted for by ma
ture TO produce; and, besides, there is
a considerable variety Of produce raised
for home consumption by the family or
by hired help. If the farmer would
carefully count the cost of these prod

could proftablv extend some Of the

Ants Find Food and Shelter in Some

Ants Find Food and Shelter IN some
vegetable GroWths.
All insects producing nectar may be
regarded, as a whole, as ambulatory
hectares. They are more powerful
causes Of attraction 70 ants than the
extrafioral nectaries. Scattering them
selves nearly all over the surface of the
plant, they determine the coming and
going OF the ants, which indirectly pro-
.tect the whole plant Yet the damage
done by the "ambulatory nectaries,
which extract the nutritive juices from
the plants and cause deformities in
their organs, can hardly be said to be
compensated by the incidental and un-
certain protection which the ants may
afford them in other respects.
The ants which are. really protective
to plants are not those which obtain
their food indirectly for the most part
through the aphfSes) from the yege-
table kingdom, but those whichare real
" carniyorons. These are numerous
iii temperate climates and their use
fnIness to agriculture and sylvieulturc
Is inconfestabIe. Thus tile field ant is
great insect destroyer. A nest of this
species is capable Of destroying as
many as 20 caterpillars and grasshop-
IaTs a minute, OF 1900 an hour; and
such a colony is at work day and night
dnring the pleasant season. In the arid
plains Of America the benefcent work
of ants is revealed in the isles of yer
tlure around their hills.
There are plants hospitable to ants,
which furnah them shelter, and Otter,
food, within the cavities Of which tho
instincts of the ants prompt them to
take their abode. This is the case with
several ferns, among them the poly-
| podium nectariferum, the sterile fronds
of which bear hectares on their lower
/ face and are, moreover Of q shape fa-
vorable to sheltering the insect. Pop
