Business Side of Farming.

In almost every section We see men
who have failed in business. and as
the last resort have gone to farming.
It used to be a popular opinion that a
man could farm when he had failed
in everything else. but that time is
past. A farmer today needs brain,
coupled with muscle. He must be
the master of his operations and not
the servant. A true farmer makes
his farm furnish him the necessities
as well as the comforts of lifes and
some Injuries, but above all, content
ment and satisfaction. Three ele-
ments are necessary to make a sue
cess in any calling, intelligence, in
dustry and economy. Education, the
very best a farmer can acquire, should
be his. as a farmer needs information
in many lines. He is q manufactur-
er. salesman. chemist and entomolo-
gfst, and coupled with some of these
things he must be familiar with his
farm. He must study his environ
ment and govern his operations &C.
cordingly. He must work his farm so
as to get as much profit per acre as
possible, and at the same time make
his soil more productive. He must
know what he wants to do, and then
stick to it through thick and thin,
through high prices and low. By SO
doing he can establish a reputation as
q producer of a certain article, and his
profits will be much larger. The sec
ond Is industry. The mar that is
lazy and indolent and is always at the
corner grocery cultiVating the soft
side Of a store box will never make a
success at farming, such men will
never be able to go to the bank and
draw more than his breath. He
who would succeed must either hold
or drive" The last is economy. The
young man or old to succeed must
practice economy. He must never
never buy something he cannot afford
Just to keep up in q certain social
set. or for any other reason. If we
apply business methods to all of our
observations as closely az other men
do. success will crown our efforts, and
the world viii be better by US having
lived In it.--M. G. Thomas in The Epi-
ton1ist.

Heroic Woman Abolitlonist.

Miss Sarah e. Sanborn, who died
at the age of 80 last week in Hamp.
ton Falls, N. H., was once the heroine
of an exciting abolitionist adventure.
Her brother, Franklin B. Sanborn,
with whom she was then living, was
outspoken in his utterances and work
in support Of the abolition cause. An
attempt was made to kidnap him. Thu
hack in which he was to be carried
away was left standing at the door
Miss Sanborn seized the whip and
dashed the horses till they ran away
then she helped her brother to escape
For this exploit the citizens Of Con.
cord afterward presented her with q

Trolley Car Strikes a Deer.

A motorman on the Berkshire troll.
ley road reported striking a deer Mon.
day which was walking on the tracks
near the Valley mills, between Len.
oxdale and Lee. AS the car did not
stop it could not be learned whether
the animal was killed. The deer, it
is believed, strayed from October
mountain. Deer are becoming quite
common in that section. One was re-

cut and was killed by the game war,
den. Some weeks ago a man killed a
doe neal Hillsdale, N. Y, for which
he will have to pay dearly. The doe
was first seen by Charles Burtch, a
horse trainer, and was being pursued
by two dogs. He mounted a running
pony and drove the dogs off. The doe
was then nearly tired out. and allowed
MIR. Burtch to stroke its head. The
deer wandered away and went into a
neighbours barnyard, where she lay
down, and was killed by the farmer.
The game wardens were notified and
the man was arrested.

Lima Beans.

The Lima beans are natives of
warm countries, and therefore require
a longer season. The gardeners eff
fort is to shorten their period of
growth in every way possible. Elephants
the earliest varieties obtainable, in
light, warm, sandy soil. and gives as
siduous cultivation. Coarse, raw sum
mer is not the best for Lima beans,
as 1t induces a rank and late growth.
If such manure is to be used it should
be applied to the ground IN the fall In
order that it may become thoroughly
incorporated with the soil. and be in
good condition as available plant food
in the spring. Concentrated fertiliZ-
ers, rich in potash and phosphortc
acid, are suitable, while those con-
tanning much nitrogen should be
avoided. Although desirable to give
the Limas the largest room possible,
It is useless to plant them in open
ground before settled weather. They
may terminate, but only to be checked
and retarded, and therefore nothing
will be gained. AS a rule, they should
not be planted until a week or 10 days
after it is safe to plant ordinary bush
garden beans. But they may be plant
ed in a clearinghouse or cold frame in
pots, or an inverted sods, or in boxes,
two weeks before it is suitable to
plant theme out of doors. It is not a
difficult matter to transplant. Yet, in
spite of all the gardener can do, 1t is
practically impossible to induce Lima
beans to mature a full crop before
frost comes. A half crop Is all that
can usually be counted on. At frost
time the green pods, containing beans
partially grown, may be picked, the
beans shelled out and dried, and used
to adVantage.-Ccnnecticut Farmer.

BlackcapFaspberries are propagated

Blackcap Taspberries are propagated
from the tip of the vine, which enters
the ground in midsummer and throws
out roots in the fall. In removing the
plant for transplanting a piece of the
vine is left attached for convenience
in handling. This old vine dies after
the plant is established in its new
home.
~Raspberries grow best when planted
in rich, well drained soil. The ground
should be deeply plowed and thorough
ly pulverized before planting. A small
furrow may be run where a row is to
be planted, CIR holes thrown out with
a spade for each plant. Straight rows
make easy cultivating. They should
be about seven feet apart and the
plants half as far apart in the rows.
In the fall, the tip of the old vine
makes a bud or sprout. This is what
grows in the spring. When plants are
carried directly from one plantation to
another this sprout can be kept from
injury and an early and vigorous
growth secured. When the plants are
received from nurseries the sprout
will usually be found to have been
broken off in handling. New sprouts
will spring UP and take it's place, but
growth is retarded and the plant more
or less injured.
Like all trees and plants, raspber-
ries should have their roots exposed
as little as possible in transplanting.
The lower ends of the roots should be
placed deep in the soil, but the sprout
should be near the surface and COW
cred with only an inch Or so Of loose
dirt. 1t will not come through if a
lot Of packed dirt is placed on top of
it. Over the roots the dirt should be
packed solidly three or four inches. If
the ground is in proper filth at plant
ing time it will settle considerably.
Remember this and get the plant in
deep enough so the c%ultivator will
not disturb the roots after the ground
has settled.-O. H. Barnhill. in New
England Homestead.

The Paraffine Dip for Cheese.

The p~araf1ne dip method Of putting
up cheese Is gaining ground, some OF
the meetings of cheese-makers having
declared strongly in its favor. It costs
a little mor than the common sailing
and binding process, but is considered
far more satisfactory and effective.
The paraflne is applied when the
cheese Is being cured and made ready
for shipment. Some dairy instructors
advise that the cheese should be left
on the shelves in the factory for sew
eral weeks in a moderate temperature
to grow firm before they r packed
away, but the advocates of the paraf-
finding method think that as soon as
the product has been shaped and has
become sufficiently dry it should be
dipped in the hot parafflne and then
placed immediately in cold storage.
