ORNAMENTAL TREES.

A feature to be recommended In I'm
proving farms ornamentslly is to have
the trees and shrubs distributed ovel
the grounds in simple manner. Thi:
Is best accomplished by arranging them
In clumps or masses. The centres of the
plats, as q rule, are kept open, sffordine
a viewing ground Of the trees and shrubs
as seen in the perspective.
1t will be conceded by all that parts
near the highway and about the house
are the ones most necessary TO keep In
handsome trim. Give several acres here
close attention and the impression vii
be conveyed that the more distant parts
which may be seen, but which are moi
likely to be traversed, are kept equally
well.
IL would be q great mistake not tG
have some regard TO the distant effect ir
the planting. Let there be mass OF
trees as the terminating point to thu
lane, whatever its length. . II there art
one or more knolls In the different fields
surmount each with q clump of trees
say deciduous kinds on one and pines OF
other evergreens on the others. To sur
round such by wire fencing as a protec.
tion against animals is an inexpensive
matter,
Judicious improvements Of this kline
should not be looked upon as q mere
source of expense without compenss
tion. Quite the reverse, II entered upon
with good taste and discretion. They
should enhance the value Of the lane
MANIFOLD over the cost Of such improve
meuts, to say nothing Of the enjoyment

THE BUSINESS END.

Professor Roberts SAYS that In ouI
study Of the business of dsirying we be
gan at the rear end, the teat end, OF the
COW. This order should be reversed,
and we should now begin our studies al
the front end. with what goes In at the
mouth. This IL quaint way OF express
ing the idea, but certainly the time is q,
hand when the cost OF feed is the prime
factor in the problem OF successful dairy
ing. The dairymsu who would realize
reasonable net returns from his opera
tons must feed his cows on low-cost fod.
der material. To do this, II must b.
grown on his own farm. The dairy farm
on which there has been the most clear
money made out Of the business OF any
whose work we have been familiar with,
has always grown on the farm the mate
rial on which the cows are fed.
There were no heavy grain bills Ia
monthly call for large measure OF what
WAS received for the products OF the
cows. The grass from the hillsides and
the grain aud folders from the titled
burrows furnished all that was needed.
The butter and the cheese are q creation
from the soil when such course 10 pur-
sued, while the sell Is still left a. good
as before. Not but the kind Of COW TO
work with Is still an important matter,
but II is not the only factor OF the prob
lem Of successful dairying. However
great producer COW may be. IL II
costs more 20 feed her than the product
Is worth, she Is an Improbable animal
TO her owner. Dairymen, therefore, Will
do well to give close attention to the
eating end OF the COW.

however, TO again urge upon the atten-

DUBLIN, N. n.
THE SUMNER BoARpER HAS IMPROVED
THE AGRICULTURAL OUTLOOK.

About thirty years ago Dublin, N. H
had reached low financial condition
aud the town was going rapidly dowr
hill. The population was steadily de
creasinx there was no sale for real e.
tate, prices were very low, and there
were no purchasers for farms at any
price.
With the advent of the summer resi-
dent there has come decided change,
and the prices of farms, at least In the
region occupied by the summer resident,
are from four TO six times what they
were thirty years ago. During the same
period the taxable property OF the town
has increased nearly three times In value
and Is steadily advancing. The town is
In every way prosperous, wages for all
kinds Of labor are high, and the market
for farm produce Is good. All the farm
crs In Dublin who have adapted them
selves to the present needs OF the town
are prosperous. There can b. no ques-
tion but that farming pays well here.
and IL can be made to pay better.-Bos-

EQUAL PROTECTION.
FARMING MUST HAVE EQUAL PRoTEC-
rIoS WITH OTHER INTERESTS.
THERE MUST ne FAIR
ADJUSTMENTS.

The defenders OF trusts point with
pride 10 the fact that the wages oI
workrnen In the trust combination:
have been raised 10 some, and possibly
In a msjority Of cases, bat they say moth
ing about the curtxiled production, the
lessensd number OF workmen, and the
higher cost Of the manufactured prod
uct to the consumers. Judging from
the arguments Of the trust defender:
the conclusion Is that prosperity In this
country rests wholly upon the condition
OF It's manufacturing interests and the
daily wages OF It's employees.
While the manufacturing interests of
the country are an important factor in
the nations prosperity, It's real produc-
tive interests are Of much greater i'm
portance III the lesser factor In general
prosperity, or manufacturing interests,
are permitted or made 10 oyershsdow or
cripple the greater factor, the sgricult-
urxl interests, disastrous results will
follow. ln England, for instance, where
the manufacturing interests predomluste
and agricultural are OF secondary i'm
portsnce Il Is quite another matter.
There the demands OF the home market
far exceed the supply, and large pro-
portion Of the bread and meat that IL
consumed must be imported from other
countries.
In this country the opposite Is true.
The supply Of bresd and meat greatly
exceeds the demand OF the home mar
kets, and more than three-fourths Of our
enormous exports come direct from the
farms OF the nation. IL can readily be
seen that IL any policy is pursued which
discriminates against our great prcduc-
ing interests the tide Of prosperity Will
soon be turned against US. IL the trust
combinations are permitted to raise the
price OF the various commodities that
must be purchased by the producing
class, and IL the politicians are permitted
10 continually increase the rate OF taxa
tion, without any proporticnate increase
In the price Of farm products, the fate OF
the farmer will soon be sealed.
But this condition OF affairs cannot
long continue. All classes must see the
inevits bic result, and they will unite TO
compel such 4 proper snd fair ADJUST
ment OF industrial and economic Ques-
tions and conditions as will reduce pub
lie burdens, equslize taxation so far as
possible, and give the farming interests
eQusl protection with other interests OF
this country. This Is all and just what
the farmers demand at the present time.

REAL FARM IMPROVEMENT.

One fact stands very much against ths
Improvement OF the farm In the hands
OF many owners this is the expectation
OF so many to leave the farm some time
and have a home In the village or town
Much more interest would be taken Ia
the Improvement OF farm homes IL ths
farmer fully expected 10 spend bis day:
on the farm.
There IL as much difference between
the improvements that look only 10 com
mercial value, when selling Ia the only
object, and improvements made for the
comfort and happiness OF the owner.
MANY things considered rs improvements
In this direction by some have no com
mercisl value whatever ln the eyes oi
Others. The Improvement added TO the
farm by the owner, who must make his
living from IL, will often differ very
much from that OF the owner who has
an income from other sources. When
the farmer earns the improvements "a
he goes along, they are usually notice
able for their utility, and are fully ap-
precisted. But II built for show, or be-
cause money IL plentiful, they TOO often
become burden.
In the older sections of the country
the first Improvement should be the land
itself, the other improvements following
10 course OF time, rs the products OF the
soil prove able 10 support them. IL Is
the part OF wisdom to improve the soil
first, rather than put on surface i'm
proyements In the way OF buildings and
fences. The former when once started
L.. tha h.n De nH "a m
er able 10 make the start the improve
ment Is rapid and profitable. The sur
face improvements are not cumulative
In value, but rather 10 expense. We pay
taxes on soil Improvement only ss the
volume OF crops Is increased; on build
ings erected as soon as they can be
placed on the tax duplicate. IL Is not
unusual that these become cumulative
source Of expense.
Farming will rest on better basis
when every man farms for the love OF IL,
and aims truly to leave the farm better
than he found IL; when the farmer
builds the home on the fsrm with the
sole intention Of occupying IL while he
lives. Most farmers strive to have bank
accounts TO draw on when the infirmities
Of age overtake them. This Is COM
mendable; but too often In this effort
their farms are robbed Of fertility. Soil
Improvement is entirely forgotten In the
effort TO secure the bank account.
Thus the poverty Of the farm or the
soil OF the farm sometimes makes strong
iuroads on these expected accumulstions
with resulting failure Of the expected
bank account. He has robbed the soil,
with no effort or thought to add to or
sustain It's natural fertility, and when he
most needs help from the soil 1t is rob-
Der In turn, drawing from him the de-
cling strength Of old age in his efforts to
make il yield him q sustensuce.
