Good Times Now For Farmers
On Small Farms-Friendly
Advice.

Whatever may have been the
cause, or causes, of the increased
cost OF living, the high prices of all
farm products, though a hardship
to consumers who live on fixed sal
aries, is of much benefit to farmers.
Now is an excellent time for the
FARMERS on small farms to make
money. There was never a better
time but once, During the civil
war, and then some did not wise
ly avail themselves of it and by in
creasing their expenditures or get
ting in debt, were ruined when the
government resumed specie pay
ments and prices fell to the lowest
level.
Cattle, hogs, sheep, poultry,
eggs, butter, potatoes, vegetables
and fruits-everything farmers
have to sell, are unusually high,
but so also are most of the things
farmers have to buy, and in order
to lay up money for support in old
age, or to educate children and
help them get started in business
or buy farms for themselves, farm
ers must practice great restraint
and prudence in their purchases
No doubt some farmers, as soon
as they have the money in hand
will buy an automobile, and it is
to be feared that some others seeing
money is plentiful, will buy one of
the horseless carriages on credit.
DR.. Franklin said "wear your old
coat until you have money enough
to buy a new one." If the old
coat is not ragged and man wants
to get rich, it would be better to
lend the money on interest, that
new coat would cost, and wear the
old one while longer.
Farmers on small farms can
make more money in proportion to
the number of acres they cultivate,
than the 'bonanza" farmers who
cultivate and rob the life blood
from thousands of acres. Labor is
high priced and the "bonanza"
farmers have to hire all their work
done, whereas the small farmer
with the assistance of his family
Republican news item. [volume] (Laport, Pa.) 1896-19??, 1910-03-04

need hire but little labor.
Soils are of different composition
in different places and farmers
should raise the crops fur which
their soil l. hest suited. On some
favored farms wheat, corn aud po.
tatocs grow well and are proIitahly
raised. On other farms wheat and
corn are prcearious and uncertain,
but potatoes, oats and buckwhcat
grow bountifully and these are the
crops that should be- raised.
On all farms, whether they have
been impoverished on not, stable
manure and plenty of it. will work
wonders in increasing the yield of
crops, aud ON small farms the mum
bcr of live stock that can be profit
ably kept will maintain there fer.
tility, especially If clover, alfalfa
and cow peas are frequently plowed
under to increase the humus and
nitrogen in the soil.

From The New Albany Mirror


word How it thrills the soul of the absent boy or
girl to think of the dear old homestead far away,
nesting among the cherry blossoms, the woodbne
and the trellis, or when bleak and desolate in
the grasp of winters icy fingers without, within
all CHEEKY and bright. Home, sweet, sweet home.
Most of us have known the delights of a child
hood home. Some of us grown-ups still go back
and greet aged parents in the old home nest.
To many of us that most hallowed haven of earth
is but memory. A few of our brothers and sis
ters in the world never had home.
We want to have heart to heart talk with our
friends about home About how home is made a
happy or an unhappy place.
We most heartily favor frendliness and love
among neighbors, but home should be the altar
upon which the choicest, most constant gifts OF
affection should be laid. How prone we are TO
forget neglect to do so How easy it is to con
ceive and exercise an unwarranted liberty toward
those of our own household
How often we are sury, morose and callous
toward one another in the home simply through
careessness. That we really love one another is
amply proven by absence, sickness or death, but
we take too much for granted; we tread down our
own best emotions and stiHe the affections of 9TH
Iers by an undue familiarity
We have seen members of household snap
and snarl at one another like ours, when the door
bell would ring and neighbor enter the house.
Frowns would vanish as by magic and smiles take
their places Everything would become as serene
as an angels dream.
Why was it? Was it because the neighbor

Should the visitor move far away, or be carried to
the churchyard to be welcomed no more in a
friendly call, regret deep grief might be felt
but nothing like the awful loss of any link being
broken from the family circle
Now then, since this is true and we know it
to be true, why not begin now and bestow our
brightest smiles, most courteous attention, our
most courtly hospitality upon those dearest of all
to us?
Some of us, both men and women, after years
OF contact with the sharp corners of life, grow sour
stern and unlovng. We look upon the demon
stration of affection as silly, childish, unworthy a
mature individual
A puppy is more playful than an old dog, but
a dogs devotion to his master does not decrease
with age. When his teeth are blunted by the ad-
amant bone Of time his legs feeble, his ears deal,
he will lie and gaze into his masters face with an
undying affection. Must we creations most in
telllgent offspring be taught by dogs?
Many men and women go about the home in
shabby garments and unkempt appearance that
would make them blush with shame in the pres
ence OF neighbors strangers There is no reas-
on why we should not and every reason why we
should make our person as pleasing as possible to
our own home folks If the husband knew his
wife took pains to make herself agreeable to his
sight, don't you suppose he would appreciate it
