Farming for Fun.
Ranch and Range.

nouCh ono AsuhBSs
1t is the case the world over that
men in one calling envy those in
other callings. Farmers especially are
prone to feel that their work is largely
drudgery. There is, however, a great
deal of pleasure to be had in the &C.
cupation of farming. But in order to
secure this pleasure the farmer must
have something of which he has rea-
son to feel proud. 1t may be fine
dairy cows, or fine beef animals, some
registered pigs, or chickens, or it may
be a farm free from weeds, or any one
of hundred things. The pride man
takes in the particular thing which he
thinks is better than his neighbor's,
does more perhaps to relieve farm life
of drudgery than any other one thing.
That there is pleasure to be had in
farming is shown by the fact that
nearly every man who has acquired
great wealth and can afford to have
what he wants buys him farm and
spends great deal of his time on it.
The public generally suppose that
these wealthy farmers spend a good
deal more on their farms than they
get back from them. But such is not
the case. Five hundred thousand
dollars worth of produce is sold an
nually in New York city by seventeen
millionaires who have taken up farm
ing merely as pastime. One Of
these farms sells $4,000 worth of
dairy products in year.
VIM. Rockefeller sells $25,OO worth
of violets in New York city in a year.
Mr.. Twombley sells $4,000 worth OF
produce annually. His milk wagon
cost 81 200 and is drawn by pair of
l,50O thoroughbreds in gold-mounted
harness. Gov. Morton's Ellerslie herd
of Guernseys has attained national
reputation. We do not advise our
readers to emulate these wealthy farm
ers. We only call attention to these
facts to show that men who are in n
position to crafty every wish still
find their greatest pleasure in contact
with nature.
The average farmer cannot, of
course, keep his cows in parlor. But
the fact remains that there is on

Electricity q Century AGO.

Electricity as we know it is just 100
years old. In 1779 the Italian scien-
fist Volta gave definite form to the
method of producing the current, and
it is from his name that we have the
term voltmeter to describe the insrru-
ment which measures the force of the
current, and volt as the unit of that
measurement.

A Wonderful System.

As administered by the present
banker Secretary of the Treasury, Ly-

ing is a marvel. First, the govern
ment sells bonds to get money, then it
takes back the bonds to get rid of the
money, pays interest on the money it
gets, and then turns the money over
to the New York bankers without in
terest, and they charge more interest
on the money it gets rid of. 1t is in.

one-for the banks.

FOREIGN TRADE GAINS.
March Figures Show That Exports
Have More Than Doubled
Since 1893.

Total exports of American products
and manufactures in March, as shown
by the figures of the treasury bureau
of statistics. were $134, 4,313,34S, against
S104. $50 $50 in March of last year, $15,
4,1S5 in March, 1896, and $G6,5l6,-
5T1 III March, 1898. Thus last
months exports were more than
double those of March, 1898. and 25 per
cent. greater than those of any pre-
ceding March in our history.
The total exports in the nine months
ending with March, 1900, were $1,053,-
S32, ,G15 against $047, ,919, ,4O5 in the CORE
spending months of last year, 1925, ,905,-
32G in March, 1897, and $515, ,499,G35 in
the same month of 1856, having thus
doubled in Is years and Increased over
SO per cent. since 1898.
Exports of agricultural products are
about the same as last year, the nota-
bic increase of more than 500, eco ,0U0
in the nine months in question being
largely in manufactures. 1t is appar-
ent that the total exports of the fiscal
year 1900 will exceed those of any pre-
ceding year in our history. Imports
also show Il marked increase over last
year, the principal gain being in manu-
facturcrs' materials, while manufac-
turcd articles for use in the mechan-
ic arts also show an increase. Thus the
return to a protective system has been
followed by enormous gains in our eX-
ports, and by increased activity in oar
manufacturing interests at home. with
corresponding increase of employ
ment and wages.
