Poverty and Piety.

A western preacher whose salary
has probably not been raised To
make good to him the increased cost
of living in these prosperous times,
in recent sermon delivered by him
expressed the opinion that continu-
Gus prosperity is not good thing
for the man on the farm-that money
easily made is likely to be foolishly
spent, and that such condition
tends to undermine the moral condi.
ton of the farmer. The writer is
always and ever an optimist-a look.
err on the bright side of things and
for the best side of his fellows, and
so we cannot agree with this preach
err who reflects little of the SIX
teenth century piety, which advocated
the crucItixion of the flesh as the
most orthodox method of serving the
Lord. The good things of life are
Just as much the legitimate rewards
of correct living and business intel
ligence as are failure, poverty and
misery the rewards of shiftlessness
laZiness and lack OF business sagacity.
The good things are placed within the
reach of every man if he will but
make the proper etscrt to win them
Piety is not the Legitimate outcome
of poverty, for but few people are sc
built that they voluntarily praise God
when they are hungry, poor and mis-
cradle. The men and women on The
farm who today enjoy financial in
dependence have reached this point
only after many long, hard years
of toll and struggle. 1t will not
wreck their future happiness to en-
10Y good crops and good prices ano
freedom from debt. 1t Is hard to b'
r. christian with only one shir
asa a., empty pcketbpok. This par
son should learn to look on the bright
side and take his texts from tn,
Psaams and not from Jeremiah.

Decraved Appetites.

Animals, like men, frequently are
the victims of depraved appetites.
Post norton examinations of ami
mails which die of no known disease
frequently show that mass of for
eign and wholly indigestible matter
has accumulated in their stomachs.
We once lost a valuable mare whose
stomach contained over three pounds
of barbed wire, nails and similar
trash; a reader writes us from Penn
sylvania of extracting solid ball of
compressed hair from the stomach of
a pig. We are asked why animals eat
these things. 1t is probable that the
cause will be found in the fact of
the domestication of the animal, I'M
der which condition it is not left free
to select its food by instinct and is
thus derived of certain FOOD elements
essential to it's health. We doubt II
wild animals are ever thus affected.

A Valuable Farm Machine.

Ten years ago all the corn which
was cut and shocked had to be done
by hand labor and the doing of it
became as near hard work as any
thing found on the farm. 1t was al,
ways difficult to get the help to do
this work and when done the corn
was left in such shape that it was an
all round nuisance to handle. Now
the corn harvester is available, cut
ting up and tying in handy bundles
from eight to ten acres of corn per
day, and enabling any grower of corn
to secure his rough forage from his
corn field instead of from meadow
lands. The general adoption of this
plan will add twenty-five per cent
to the acreage of any corn and stock
raising farm in the country. Thous-
ands of these machines have been
sold in every western state the past
few weeks.

About Sugar.

The United States used 100000
tons of sugar the past year. One
million tons of this was produced on
American territory-Louisiana $780,
300 tons, northern beet sugar 100000
tons, Hawaii 350,0vo tons, Porto Rico
$50, 900 tons-this million tons paying
no duty, while 100000 tons were i'm
ported, upon which the duty was s46,,
100000. The protest which the con-
sumner has in this matter is that the
one million tons paying no duty was
held and sold by the sugar trust at a
price based upon what it cost to inn
port foreign sugar and pay the duty
on it. When this country gets to pro-
ducing two million tons instead OF
one million, this order of things will
he reversed or there will be how
from one end of the country to the
other.

The Negroes Salvation.

Coupled with the effort to save the
souls of the colored people of the
south should be the effort to teach
them how to provide for their ma
terial wants. The accumulation OF
property is the stepping stone by
which the colored man alone can ex.
pect to secure respect and actual in
dependence. Money talks just as loud
for a black as for white man
Hereditary influence, environment
and climate make the black man
shiftless and lazy and the easy vic
tim of the white mans cupidity. Just
so soon as Sambo becomes land
owner and has a bank account his
political and social rights will be &C.
corded to him without seeking. From
q purely scientific standpoint nothing
would Selp the colored race like an
infusion of Irish or Scandinavian
blood-a tonic which would tend to
make them scrappy and Industrious

The Columbian Raspberry.

We have an inquiry about the Co.
lumbar raspberry-what it is like
etc. 1t is the rankest growing OF
any of the raspberry family; is prop.
agated from the tips and is a most
prolific bearer of large purple
berry, which in size, color and APP.
earance resembles the Shaffer.
1t possesses one excellent trait,
in that if the bearing wood
is cut back, say to a foot in height
in the spring, it will throw out a
profuse growth of new shoots which
will bear big crop of large and late
maturing berries. We have known
a single hill of this berry produce
over one-half bushel of fruit. In
the latitude north of central Iowa il
is safer to lay the vines down and
cover them for the winter, as it Is
not an ironclad variety.

soil Robbine.

The very choicest elements of soil
fertility from hundreds of thousands
of farms in the great Mississippi val
ley in almost inconceivable quantity
are yearly dumped by this river into
the gulf of Mexico. The process of
erosion goes on all the year round
and particularly in the winter in the
south, while it is suspended during
the frost period in the north. Every
hillside placed under cultivation con-
tributes year after year its quota
of fertility through the medium OF
the little runs, creeks and streams
to this tremendous waste. Because
this process is conInuouS in the
south is one reason VIII ythe soil of
the south is less fertile than that of
the north. There is no one thing
which should be so closely watched
by the owner OF rolling and hilly land
as this loss of fertility by erosion,
the grand larceny committed by the
differing waters carrying off the
farmers wealth little by little in so.

The Lesson Of the Year.

Drouth keeps the people of India
face to face with starvation; il
broods over central Russia and par
alyzes the efforts of millions; it CIR
dies Australia and makes a desert OF
once fruitful farms, and here in the
great Mississippi valley no lesson has
been more sharply defined the past
season than that of learning how best
to conserve moisture in the soil. The
early and the latter rains may fall,
full or scant as the case may be, and
the wise farmer will learn how by
deep tillage and constant cultivation
to raise good crops even with mini.
mum of rainfall. No subject is OF
greater Importance than this.

paIeo Corn Fodder.

Baled shredded corn fodder should
come to the front this year with hay
as scarce and high-priced as it is all
over the country. 1t is most valu-
able forage for dairy cows and work
horses-in point of nutritive value
equal to the best timothy hay. One
hundred tons of this fodder was sold
lately in a western town at $40 per
ton. There is but one drawback to
its general introduction and that the
need of doing the shredding and bal
ing when the forage is thoroughly
dry, otherwise it will mould in the
bale,

An G Fool

Here is the sto of an old agricul-
tural fool. His wife died, like enough
overworked, when he was 60. He adj
vertised for a new wife and got one
from the Denver region. He paid her
$4,000 the day he married her. He
managed to live with her four months
and then one morning when the
chores were done, went out back OF
the barn and put bullet through his
head. The Jezebel then trots into the
probate court and has one-third of the
old mans estate set off to her.
Strange, but just the way OF the
world.

The Clyde Strawberry.

A friend wants to know about the
J2de strawberry. Well, like some
people whom we know, too many
good things cannot well be said OF
This berry. A prominent fruit grower
said to us recently that the introduc'
ton of the Clyde strawberry wa,
the greatest boon TO growers OF
small fruit conferred upon them for
many years. 1t will, as we have
found it, produce twice as many ber'
RES as any other of the popular
kinds of strawberry. You will make
no mistake if you plant the Clyde
in the new bed which you set out next
spring.

FEEDING Steers on 5o>cent Corn.


A good many feeders are debating
inst now as to the wisdom of trying
to feed steers for beef the coming
winter, the question being whether
they can make anything feeding so
cent corn. One thing is certain
there will be a great falling off of
beef production in any event; this
fact is likely to put good beef ami
mali up to fancy prices by next
spring, and if man has the right
sort of steers-well bred beef ami
mals-we had just as soon take our
chance feeding them so cent corn this
year as 30 cent corn in ordinary sea-
sons. Then the side issue of the hogs
associated with the feeding of the
steers is sure TO be good PROPOSE
ton. Now mind, this statement Is
oredicated upon the kind of steers
ted. TOR we would not attempt the
JOB with scrub stock.
