Farms Can BE Made to Pay.

A professor in Cornell university
has been discussing in print the ques-
ton whether farm can be made to
pay He thinks it can, but with some
mental reservations on the subject of
what it means to have a farm pay"
He says of one of his early expert
ences with his farm: Half of coun-
try life is in the living. It is in the
point of view. 1t is in the way in
which we look at things. Thoreau re-
joiced when it rafned because he
knew that his beans were happy. One
day my man was agitated because the
woodchucks were eating the beans. He
would go to town at once and buy 3
gun. asked him how many beans the
woodchucks would probably destroy.
He thought from one-eighth to one
quarter of an acre. Now, one-quarter
of an acre OF field beans should bring
me net cash return of So Or 81.
told him that he could not buy gun
for that money. If he had gun he
would waste more time killing the
woodchucks than the beans would be
worth But the worst part of it would
be that he would kill the woodchucks.
and at daylight morning after morn
ing l had watched the animals as
they stole from the bushes, shifted the
soft morning air and nibbled the crisp
young leaves. Many time 1 had
spent twice 81 for much less entertain
ment. My neighbor thought that T
ought to cut out the briers in the fence
corner ] told him that liked to see
t the briers there. He remarked that
some folks are fools. 1 replied that it

finds it an excellent auxiliary in pre-

Few people peeping within the quiet

I.
A boy was born mid little things,
Between little world and sky
And dreamed not Of the cosn1ic rings
Round which the circling planets fly.
He lived in little works and thoughts.
Where little ventures grow and plod,
And paced and ploughed his little plots
And prayed unto his little god.
But, as the mighty system grew,
His faith grew faint with many scars:
The Cosmos widened in his view
But God was lost among the stars.
Another boy, in lowly days
AS he-to little things was born.
But gathered lore in woodland ways.
And from the glory of the morn.
AS wider skies broke on his view,
God greatened in his growing mind;
Each year he dreamed his God anew,
And left his older God behind.
He saw, the boundless scheme dilate.
In star and blossom, sky and clod,
And as the universe grew great,
He dreamed for it greater God.
