Ornamenting Farms.

.
Ornamenting Farms.
The Richmond times believes
that if the farmers would pay more
attention to the ornamentation
they would find the experiment
not only pleasing but profitable
There is great deal in appearance
The merchants of the cities spend
large sums of money each year in
show. The merchant who has a
pretty store and who displays hie
goods in an attractive manner will
get more trade than his neighboI
who does business in building
with dingy walls, and displays his
wares in slip.shod manner. If a
farmer wishes to sell horse to adj
vantage he will take the pains to
fatten the animal and groom him
we'll, and make him look as spry ae
possible when he offers him for
sale.
The same principle applies to
the farm. a farm which has on it
neat house, painted with green
blinds surrounded by whitewashed
fence, and ornamented with we'll
kept trees and shrubbery, will al
ways command better price than
farm whose buildings and fences
present diIapidated appearance
aud which seem to be generally
run down at the heels.
In these days when materials are
cheap, it does not cost much for q
farmer to keep his buildings paint
ed and his fences whitewashed, and
this to say nothing of the preser-
vative qualities of paint and white
wash. Paint keeps out the damp
ness and prevents timbers from
rotting, and whitewash keeps of
the bugs and worms and other in.
huences that tend to destroy woody
fibre. a farmer simply cannot af.
ford not to use paint and white
wash, and it is surprising to see
that SO many of them fail to recog-
nize the fact. We say that orna.
mentation of this character is net
merely matter of sentiment; it is
matter of business.
Capt. q. E. Hess has plant
known as Siempre Viva, or Resur.
reotion plant. This plant is the
world greatest curiosity; Isaiah

flowers. Capt, Hess says he never
saw one of them before, but as ar
experiment will plant this one to-
morrow afternoon at 800 O'Clock in
the show window of O. e. Hess &
sons. Capt. Hess invites every
ono to be there at that hour to see
the plant grow.
