The short crop of corn for 1901 and
the consequent high price which this
cereal commands are affecting some
agricultural interests very unfavora-
bly,, notably the dairy interests and
the feeders Of cattle and hogs for the
market. Conditions this winter are
such that it is almost impossible for q
man to handle dairy Of cows with
profit, the price Of dairy products hay
ms failed to maintain profitable rela-
ton to the foodstuffs out of which
they are made The corn at 65 cents
and average beef and pork at 5la cents
! pound is another Improbable condi-
lion of things for the man who feeds
The corn. It is one Of those rare years
when the man who has stock is at
4 disadvantage and when the man
who raises grains and forage to sell
las his innings.

rnn heaviest nrnpEN or Al

The heaviest load of all for man
to carry is not debt, poor crops or ever
Ill health; it is to raise a nice boy and
have him go to the dogs become a
worthless, ornery, lazy, dishonest
whelp This is an ever present and
irremediable trouble the disappoint-
ment, the disgrace of the thing, the
financial loss connected with it and
worse than all, the ugly specter never
absent that the man himself was large
" responsible for the boys failure and
ruin; too much licking. too much hard
work, a poor example, no friendship
between father and SON all seen wher
il was everlastingly too late. This
man deserves sympathy. If your boys
are yet small, heed the warning, and
not only feed and clothe them, but be
their best friend and set them good
example every day Of your life. Then
the heaviest burden which can be
placed upon the back Of a man shall
not be yours to carry.
our SMALL FARM.
The writer's farm is only small one
forty acres ten acres sugar bush
and 5000 apple trees, mostly Wealthy.
The crop for the coming year will be
clover five acres; corn. ten acres; on-
ions, two acres; melons, one acre; pop
corn, two acres; potatoes, two acres:
raspberries and strawberries, two
acres, and piece for experimental
purposes on some new crops. These
crops named will be mostly grown
among the orchard trees, allowing the
trees a strip sixteen feet wide upon
which no crop will be grown, but
which will be kept continuously and
thoroughly cultivated up to the list Of
August, when it will be sown with
buckwheat as winter cover crop.
Two Jersey cows, 100 hens and six
hogs will constitute the stock equip
'ment of the little farm. We figure
that, barring bad luck we will make
our own maple sirup. have a family
supply Of eggs, chickens. pork, butter
fruits and fuel and little 10 sell for
pocket money besides, more or less as
the fruit may materialize. There is a
lot Of pleasure in managing a little
farm on these lines, even though a
man never becomes rich enough to en-
dow d public library Mistakes made
are circumscribed in the extent Of
financial injury inflicted, while the
successes are WIG enough to fairly dem;
onstgate the value Of any new methods
