SYSTEM is WHAT IS NEEDED.
The Essential Requisite 10 Bring the
Attractive Side of Farming
To the Front.

Farmers as a class worry too much,
do too much hard work, and this
blunts the sensibilities, destroys their
sense of pleasure and renders them
in appearance, if not in reality, Ian
guild, stupid, and in word dreadfully
rustic. They should do less hard la
Dor, much of which is profitless
drudgery. Often far more is under
taken than can be well done, conse-
quently they work too early and too
late. They often could and should
be modified by, little forethought
and management. System is what is
needed. Farmers should have a GER
tain time to begin and stop work.
They should put in more mind should
theorize as well as practice, and let
both go together. Farming should
not be, as it were, an incubus resting
on the mind, and rightly pursued it
will not be; for it is healthy, it is
moral, it is respectable, and in. the
long run it is profitable. Only lea the
farmer think WELL labor judiciously,
keep out of debt, careful lookout 10
OUTLAWS and incomes, keep good stock
and the best machinery, and no place
will afford him more solid content
ment and pleasure than the trusty old
farm. Indeed, the farm is the best
place to begin life, and the best place
TO end. it; a truth well known and
appreciated, hence, so many in the
cities and professional life covet rural
homes.
Another essential in rendering
farm life attractive is to take care
of and promote the health. No place
affords so great a variety Of exercises
for promoting health as the farm;
but too often these are overlooked,
and the beneficent results they would
have afforded are lost to those who,
perhaps, were longing for them.
Among other things cleanliness is too
often neglected, bathing omitted, eat
ing is done hurriedly and irregular,

themselves to cold. Since the greater
number of human diseases arise from
colds or intemperance, both of eat
ing and drinking. ii is necessary for
good health to battle frequently
breathe pure air, and eat and drink
with moderation and elaboration.
Home adornment is another feature
in rendering farm life attractive
Nothing is lost that goes to make a
home beautiful or pleasant. There
should be indoor entertainments fol
the family, papers, pictures, music
and every member of the family
should be encouraged in their prac'
tice and use. Then let neatness, com
fort, order, shrubbery and flowers har'
monte without. so that home will be
sanctuary so happy and pleasant
| that the entire household will love tt
stay there. There would be less de-
sertions of 1.-The old homesteads If such
care was taken to make them attrac
tive and agreeable.-C Epitomist.

HERE AND THERE.

The poultry business is not one
for the man who has failed at every
thing else he has undertaken. Many
of this class rush in only to add an.
other failure to the list.
The value of barley as a feed for
horses has been thoroughly tested
Horses and mules at hard work soon
tired of it and finally refused to eat
it at all Oats was then substituted
for barley and eaten greedily.
Hog raisers, who have fat hogs,
are in clover if the hogs are not. Good
fat ones have recently brought seven
cents per pound, live weight. The
joke is on those who eased up on the
hog business on account OF the high
price of corn.
-Pure-bred poultry of to-day lay
more eggs, attain greater size and
young stock natures faster and are
better table fowls than the common
mixed stock, to say nothing of the
beauty to the eye of fine stock OF
pure-bred fowls.
If the sod in the orchard is too
tough, and it Is not desirable to pillow
it, turn the pigs in and give them free
range. They will always find some.
thing to root for, and the result will
be that they will break up the sod
and benefit the trees.
The export cattle trade Of the
United States for the fiscal year end.
ed June 30, 1901, was the greatest, in
point of the number of cattle export.
ed of any year in history. The total
to all countries amounted to 459,21s
head, valued at $37 ,5660S0.
1t is claimed that the unusual fail
ure of the corn crop and the unusual
success of the wheat crop in Missouri
will cause many farmers to change
from corn to wheat. Cracked wheat
will also in many instances be substi.
tuted for fattening cattle.
General farming would be more
/ profitable If farmers would grow
more live stock. The most perfect
system is that wherein instead of sell.
ing the crops to Others to be fed to
animals at profit to the breeder, the
| farmer becomes the feeder himself
and reaps double profit.

EVENINGS ON THE FARM.
The Winter Evenings Should Re De.
voted to Well Selected Read
ing Matter.

AS the evenings lengthen and there
is leisure time the subject of reading
matter is or should be more promi-
nent. 1t is now a recognized fact that
the farmer to be successful can not
follow the same old beaten path of
two or three generations before him.
Competition has increased; brains
have supplanted Drawn; and the edu.
Gated farmer is as much a necessity
as an educated minister or lawyer
The pristine fertility of the soil is ex,
hausted and chemistry is called upon
to supply the deficiency; the natural
equilibrium of the animal world has
been disturbed by the slaughter Of
the birds and other causes, and the
practical entomologist is summoned
to the rescue; new plant appears in
our midst, and it's nature and habits
call forth an interest in botany. In
short, agriculture, in its highest
sense, is inseparable from science.
What is to be done? Farmers who
nave axe Ndu IiOl
rule leave their homes to enter one of
the numerous agricultural colleges.
But are they to be debarred utterly
from the advantages of these insti;
tons? Not at all. The agricultural
papers have admirably solved the
problem by adapting to their needs
the general principles CT scientific
farming, popularizing the subject so
to speak, and thus bringing it within
the grasp of all. The teacher who is
not sufficiently interested in school
work to take an educational paper is
in some places debarred from employ.
ment; and the agriculturist who fails
to read regularly at least one stand
ard farm paper loses many times the
subscription price. 1t is his text book,
one of the essential tools, of the
trade. 1t is substitute for the edu-
cation he will give to his children in
the higher schools. Read exhaustive
ly on subject, says popular lectur-
err, if you would remember; a desul-
tory reading results in mass of UNI
classified matter, not easily retained
in the mind. If the farmer and his
family would each year resolve to
study into the principles of some par.
ticular subject, they would be as.
tonished at the advantage and pleas
ure derived from it.-Agricultural

FARMER NDPLANTER.
AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION.
Few Farmers Seem to Think Their
boys Need Special Training TO
Become Farmers.

1t is n fact recognized by all that
the doctor, the lawyer, or anyone fol-
lowing professional or mercantile
pursuit, must have some special train
ing in order that he may attain sue
cess in his chosen work. The most
undertaking to make doctor or law
yer out of his son without first send
ing him to some reputable college
who're young men are trained for
such professions. Yet it seems that
very few ever think of q boy need
ing any special training in order to
become farmer. Anybody can farm,
so it is thought. If boy can plow,
use the cultivator, or do the ordinary
work about farm he is regarded as
very well fitted for making success
full farmer. The farm is often re.
garded as the place for such persons
as have not attained sufficient educa-
ton to follow some other pursuit in
life. The children are told, in many
instances, at our public schools that
they should be diligent in pursuing
their studies, in order that they may
prepare themselves for some higher
calling in life than manual labor.
They are thus taught to regard man
ual labor as only fit for persons who
can support themselves in no other
way. They are thus led to think that
il does not require trained thought to
be successful in farming. Nothing but
hard work and plenty of it is consid-
cred requisite. The boy who gets
this idea in his head is inclined to
think there is no honor in making a
success of something which only re.
quires hard manual labor. He must
choose some of the professions where
it requires hard mental work and
where there is some honor in being
successful, so the farmer boy is off to
the city in many instances to swell
the number of the unsuccessful in
life. The boy then often undertakes
to drown the memory of his disap-
/ pointment in dissipation and riotous
living and is rushed on toward a dis
sipated life and often drunkard' s
grave. When it is generally recog-
nized and understood that farming is
a business which requires trained
thought as well as manual labor, and
the successful farmer is recognized as
he should be, there will not be such q
4 tendency toward the city among our
farm boys. 1t is true that the farmer
could make a tolerably good living
without much thought or education
during the early settlement of the
country, while the land was all new
and no attention needed to be paid
TO the fertility of the soil. AS it Is
to-day, however, we must pay the pen,
atty for the ignorance of our fore.
fathers, by having soil robbed oil
its natural fertility, to cultivate. 1t is
case of the sins of our forefather,
being visited upon us, although limo.

sought, |. e., cows for butter making
should be fed different class of foods
than If milk for cheese was wanted,
and If for city milk, then thin slop
was the demand, so as to produce
large flows of thin milk. All this, I'M
der the light of repeated and pains
taking investigation has been greatly
modified, and now the great mass of
opinion is, that a well-nourished COW,
on any ration, does not undergo any
modification or appreciation of the
quality of her milk; simply varies the
quantity. The great mass of testi-
mony is also to the effect that the
good butter COW is as good for cheese,
The great mass of cows in this coun-
try have their measure of value as
butter or cheese cows, measured by
the fat contents of the milk, and so
far as any investigation has gone,
there has never been change enough
in its character to warrant the asser-
ton that there are any foods that will
| influence il commercially.
The thing to seek out is the individ.
uality of the COW and feed her to the
full capacity of production. Cows do
not consume, digest food, or give milk
in proportion to their size, and it is in
finding out what these COWS will do
as separate members of the herd that
is of importance. One thing is need.

Not that there should be abrupt
changes, but just enough change in
the compositions to give spice to the
ration. Change around the grains to
some extent. There will be no change
in the character of the milk, but pos.
sibly there will be an increase. These
slight changes in the direction OF a
greater quantity of milk are more
from the fact that the appetite OF
the COW is pleased, digestion is made
little better and the contentment
more market. 1t is great thing to
watch the cows and mark the different
changes that can be made in the care
and feeding, and it's effect upon the
