Cheap Eastern Farms.

1t looks to us as though if a man
wants a real cheap farm the place to
look for 1t is down East and not out
West. Grant, If you please, that the
soils of these cheap Eastern farms are
badly impoverished, still the fine build
ings and improvements, orchards, near
ness to the best markets, ease with
which help may be procured, all go a
long way toward making up for this
one drawback of a poor soil. With
poultry, fruit and as many cows as
may be kept a bright man could do
something more than keep the wolf
from the door. A lazy man, however.
does not want to tackle the job. He
had better go West, where the wastes
of the farm would represent the profits
of an Eastern farm.

A farmers wife, writing for one of

use of the emptv -four sacks as good

Some Changes in Fifty Years.

The first blowing we ever did was In
1853, and the rig was a pair of old oxen
named Buck and Bright and a soft iron
pillow which would not scour in clear
sand. We simply ruttled the surface Of
the soil, just as the Egyptians do today.
1t was not pleasant work, and it took
all the Sunday school influence and the
parsons long sermon to boot to keep
us from falling from grace during the
week. We used to scrape the mold
board off at the end of each bout and
tousled up about three-quarters of an
acre a day. We have since driven three
1,6OO pound Normans, hauling a sulky
plow and turning over three or four
acres a day, and counted it the most
pleasant work there is to do on the
farm.

The Weeder.

We shall try the weeder instead of
the corn c~ultivator this year, will give
the land some extra preparation be-
fore planting, and If there is not too
much rain believe we can care for the
corn crop with far less work and care
for 1t better than is possible in any
other way. Still, We may be fooled.
The weeder Is more a preventive Of
weeds than a weed exterminator. If we
understand its mission rightly. So
much ground can be covered with IL in
a day that II properly used there should
be no chance for the weeds to get much
of a start.

Mutual TELEPHONE companies.

The Farmers Mutual Telephone COM
pany is being organized all through the
West and Northwest. Ten patrons will
do and 20 are enough for such an enter
prise. Such a service will cost about
$50 per patron to install the line com
plete, and this expense may be still
further reduced where the farmers can
furnish their W poles and do the
work of building the line themselves.
Such a system is Of curse O a com
plete m unless the line is connected
with some central station which will
put the patrons in touch with those of
other lines, which is usually done
wherever practicable. The cost of
maintenance is small, about the only
damage to be feared being from sleet-
storms and lightning.

Two Cords O Year.

We are asked what will be the an
nual growth in cords of wood on a tim
Der tract Of second growth hard maple,
hickory and oak now 20 years old, and
whether, such land being worth $50 per
acre for agricultural purposes, it will
pay to let the timber grow. If this is
a thrifty growth of timber, we should
estimate the annual increase to be
equivalent to two cords of wood per
acre, worth in the tree about S.. On
this basis the income would just about
pay s per cent interest on the value of
the land and the taxes, which is much
less than the land could be made to
bring in If properly cultivated. 1t is
a pity that there is so small a financial
reward connected with timber culture.

fractional Fight Between the East
and west-spIit Possible.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Jan. 2.-Much bitter
ness developed at the convention of the
American Bowling Congress to-day and the
struggle for supremacy between the East
ern and Western delegates may lead to a
split and the formation of two distinct
bodies. The convention was called to order
by President Langhenry. and Secretary
Samuel Karpf reported a gratifying in
crease in the membership and great strides
in the work of organization of clubs and
leagues. President Langhenry strongly adj
vocated revision of the constitution of the
congress that would place the organization
on broader basis, the position occupied by
the national body at the present time, he
said, being fallacious and misleading.
The executive committee reported that
it had been unable to arrange the work,
and asked for an adjournment until to-
morrow morning. 1t has been found that
the credentials of large number of proX
les had not been properly filled out, and
it was almost impossible to tell who or
what they represented. Western delegates
favored an adjournment, but the East vot-
ed no emphatically. A roll call was be-
gun, and bitter words came from both fac
tions. Bernard j. York, former police COM
missioner of New York, who is leading the
East in the fight, held that the cOnstitu-
tion did not provide that one delegate could
vote for three, which was contrary TO Pres
ident Langhenrys ruling on the question.
Discussion on this point continued for an
hour, the Eastern delegates hnaIly agree
ing to an adjournment
After adjournment, Charles III. Ebbetts,
the baseball magnate, who is the candidate
of the Eastern men for president, said:
THE East is up against lot OF straw
ballots. One man told me to-day that he
held thirty-one proxies. We are willing TO
meet them in a square fight, but this proxy
business is being carried TO extremes.
