This is "selling the ude for a penny, and b'uying back the jilfor asbuliDg,' which sorely is not a pritable traosvetion. Mixed agriculture itctssanly leads-te a system of rotation of crops which is the key to successful lining. That there is a vast recupera te power in lands w here a succession of iferent crops is grown, no ope can deny i tbe light of universal ' experience."

Saccessive" crops of the atinot tauda urine iwiitB. with great rapidity. The aid ihich nstnre so freely, renders, vi here ttops rotate, is held in such a system of tutowoa, because tbe farmer is - viola iceki laws. To fight against nature is fofirat fearful odds, and it is not diffi . mil to forecast the result. To work in iirmony with her, insures a comparative 7 sasy victory. One of the' most beauti ii of ber provisions is, that .while one :opexhau8tsthe soil of that element tich enjers most largely into its compo sition, by tbe operation of some mysteri 331 law it prepares that same sil for seme other crop of a different character. His is a very curious and interesting process of nature, which results immense ijtoour advantage if we except her aid. Asm illustration of tnis principle, we mow that clover does, , not successfully wow itself, altnoush it leaves the eroat thbe8t po88ible condition for corn or. 'teat. One crop, therefore; restores, in 'measure, what another has taken. By wring continuonbly the same plant, you herewith this beautiful contrivance of "tore to rebaiU , her wasted strength. w tbig j8 done is imperfectly under ood.

If, then, our climate is as good as that oi the countries referreti'to, if our land is as good asft heirs, if our produce brings us as good prices, if our taxes are much lighter, if we can grow all the crops that they can grow, if labor is cheaper with us than it is at the North, and if differ ence in taxes compensates for the cheap ness of labor in England why is it thai their land is bo valuable and ours so val ueless? We shall find the map of use to ua in answering tbis question. If Ve take the map of the United States, and put . our finger upon the State or part of the States in which land sells at tbe highest price, we shah fiud that in those State or parts ot Stales the greatest attention is paid to the cultivation ot grasses and forage plants. If we open tbe map ot Europe we shall find the same rule holds good. - : v Th Pence Question.- If a farmer will sit down and make his own calculation of the annual expense of keeping op his'ihside fencing and compare it with the annual profit of having his stock tramping over his fields at all sea sons of the year, and then ask himself if there is not 'a cheaper and better way of cariBg for his Btock, we think he will have do difficulty in solving the question Among the items of expense attending such fencing he will find the following : 1.

Take European farming, for instance, and contrast a simple factor two with the same facts here. An English farmer rents his ground and pays from $4 to $100 per acre rent every year. In order to realize anything he must put on from $5 to $10 worth or guano, inauure or sulphites, and that, too, on every acre. When all things are considered, we do not believe he has any advantage over us, for where his chances are better in one tbir g ours are better than his in another Yet Eng lish farmers actually get rich ' under all these disadvantages. True, his . better and nearer markets is offset by richer Boil, nominal rent or cheap lands. Our Western farmer of the Missouri Valley, of all this region of Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Missouri, has no need to ma- fiure his soil. JInw. ja-e ish farmer happen to succeed ? Firstly, every square inch of ground is thorough ly farmed and made to produce. No ex tra Bteps are taken; no useless labor is done. Second, such crops only are put in as pay best. Third, in feeding, not one ounce is wasted. Ail is carefully harvested and cared for.. In feeding it is ground and cooked. Fourth, and chief ly, none but tbe best stock is kept They don't go out and buy common stock, half grown. They go slowly but surely. They raise their own stock from 1 the best blood. ' Finally, the English farmer takes some good paper, full of the latest farm ing knowledge, gathered from all sources. Western Farm Journal. Legal Principles of Business- Like all general rules, the following are subject, in particular cases, to exceptions and qualifications : . Ignorance of the daw excuses no one. S A mistake as to facts may relieve one from the obligations of a contract; a mis take as to the law, never. The contracts of a minor, unless for necessaries, are voidable. A luuatic cannot enter .into a Dinding contract. 1 Ftaud vitiates any contract. Drunkenness, if it amounts to incapacity, will render a contract void, Cnntrftftta entered into on Sunday, in the ordinary coarse of business, are void. The acts and contracts of one partner, in the course of the partnership business, bind all the rest. Tbe acts and contracts of an agent. within the scope of his agency, bind tbe principal. . , . . . - Contracts entered into wunous consid eration, unless under seal, may be avoid ed.

The doing away with cross fencing entirely. 2. The amount of valuable land brought into cultivation, which would otherwise be occupied by the fences. 3. Tbe large amount of manure ac cumulated io, the barnyard during the summer months, and which would other wise be lost 4. The ability to keep a much larger amouut of stock on tbe game number of acres it being well ascertained that one acre of grass cut and fed to stock is equal to four or Jiy pastured. L' 5. The advantage of having your stock near at hand, instead of having to lose much time in driving them to and from distant pastures.

A Mean Advantage- There were a score or more of women gathered together at Mr Johnson's house- Mr Johnson is a good hearted man, and a respectable citizen, though he is rather skeptical in some things. Tbe women treme South. Native grasses do not al ways abound, and therefore the farmer should add other varietiW, from time to time, until he has nerseot grazing tbe year round.

Yes yes yes I" they chorused. "And it wants money ?" "Yes yes." "Well now, said Johnson, as he folded the bill in a tempting shape, "there are twenty married women here.
