Gentleman Farming in Virginia.

'sSsutins Is u terrible master. but she
10 q servant whom we can hardly do
without" So said the great man, Philips
Brooks, In one OF his Yale lectures. On
some of the Virginia farms things are
done in very hap-hazard way, and
Routine appears to be neither servant
nor master.
Old homesteads are frequently offered
Tor sale and Virginia men find their way
into the cities, and into the learned pro-
LESSONS. where many of them become
successful; but we oftener hear of failure
among the gentlemen farmers OF Virginia
than we do of success, from p6uniary
point of view. Why is this so? Farming
properly done Is "a beautiful occupation.
and a man can find scope for work with
heart and head and hands" and there
ought TO be profit In It, as well as plea
sure To be good farmer, man should
like the life and be fond OF doing all
kinds OF things, and be able TO tell how
much work an average strong man can
do in day.
A man can do a good deal Of work in
a day II the master requires H. one
reason Of failure is that help of an in
ferior kind Is hired, and the owners of
farms are often away. A farmer who
hires free negroes and leaves them 10
their own devices a great deal, while he
Is away following one of the learned pro-
LESSONS. or on fox chases, or amusing
himself with country sports. is liable 10
lose more than he can pay for. All with
kind intentions, too.
DIR. George w. Bagby said a pathetic
thing when he declared that "a negro
without u master is like tender with
out a locomotive" That was, perhaps,
truer OF the ante-bellum negro than OF
the younger ones Of the present day; for
instead of standing still, as a well regu-
lated tender ought to do without the loco
motive. the young set contrive by dint
OF being mastered by whiskey, cider. etc,
TO run In wrong directions. They are
much like children, as / have heard il
said. with bad training or little training.
We OF the South should have trained
them better, though we have been hamp-
cred by circumstances, and can't al
ways tell just what TO do for the negro
freedman. With the slaves il was IAN
other story and they loved their
owners A farmer. then, should have his
eye upon his negroes and his cattle
There should be regularity observed
about the cattle, feeding, watering. the
cleaning OF their stalls pens, etc. The
poor animals ought TO be well-fed and
comfortable. The manure from the stalls
and pens should be kept In dry places,
or put on such fields as are ready for II.
Hen-houses should receive more atten-
ton than they do. Farmers seem 10
think little OF the value of hen-house
manure, and much OF IL is wasted. An
old. practical farmer or some 20 years
told me that he considered that kind
OF manure equal, pound for pound. TO the
pest PERUVIAN guano one can buy. lie
