BY some subtle process of moral rea-
soning there can be found not a few
farm tenants who think it perfectly
legitimate to steal all they can from the
man whose farm they work. 1t is this
evil which makes the farm owner look
with so much favor upon the cash rent
system. Thrasher men could tell some
funny stories, if they would, about the
tenant and the absentee landlord ON the

there is in the breed. The country is
full Of slOuchy, ungainly, ill gated

1t is of the utmost Importance in the
matter of adjusting fire loss, where
the property insured is of "a miscel-
laneous character, to have complete
inventory of the property insured. The
want of such an inventory when a
loss occurs gives the adjuster every adj
vantage and chance to scale the in
demnity down. If you carry insurance
in any company on your household
goods, for instance make a list of such
goods and have it in case you meet
with q loss.

Farmers can, far more often than
they do, use the local paper as means
Of communicating with the general
public. When farmer wishes to buy
some certain thing in the line of stock
or grain, or needs help on the farm or
in the farm home, or has for sale such
things as do not naturally seek the
common market, local advertisement
in his home paper will nine times out
thing he wants or buyer for the thing
which he desires to sell. This thing is
worth trying. The cost is small, and
the results are almost always salts

Set out strawberry bed in the
spring, even if you raise an acre less
corn. Life is short, and the best things
should be got out of it, and when a
man can combine a Jersey COW and a
milk pan full of big Strawberries raised
in his own garden he has come about
as near striking a good thing as he
ever will. The man who comes to
town and buys two boxes of dirty,
stale berries, gets his wife to make a
shortcake and sits down and returns
thanks for the good food given him to
eat is not living up to his opportuni-
ties, sure as you're born.
