The Brieht SWe of Farming:.
There is a way to a?complish
every possible result in this life
if one has only the patience and
skill to find it out. Often, too,
the skill is born of patient en
deavor. Bear this in mind.
A striking illustration of the
truth of these sayings is shown
in a Connecticut farm at New
Canaan. The land consisted
mostly of rocky hillsides, with
bowlders imbedded all over the
. surface. These had to be dug
out by hand before any crop
would grow there: The large
meat and grain interests of the
country long 6ince went to the
far west. It would be madness
for a New England farmer to
attempt grain farming in com
petition with the west. Yet
here on these stony hillsides,
with no good market very con
venient, with the much abused
middleman even keener scented
than he is in the west, two part
ner, brothers, have alreadv
laid up a competency and are
realizing a lunuuo.
How didjthey do it? They ac
comnlkli it bv thoroughly un
derstanding what they can do
. wiin meir ijuiu. lucir iamoi
began the businsss before them
by starting a nursery. He saw
that something must be done,
or his would be added to the
. long list of abandoned New
England farms. So he began
slowly and cautiously chang
ing his farming to fruit and for
est tree raising. There are now
350 acres in nursery, all thriv
ing and paying well. But it is
watched and tended as carefully
as if it were a rich man's orchid
house, and improved methods
and stock are adopted as fast as
they are known to be reliable.
The partners say that their pay
ing crops are two nursery
stock and summer boarders.
The farm now contains 500 acres,
and it is all run in the way to
promote the interests of two
paying crops. In order that
there may be no waste, and that
the most may be got out of ev
ery foot of land, 300 pigs are
reared annually and dairy cows
are kept. Besides there are for
work fifteen horses and six oxen.
Thirty men are employed and
boarded on the place. Nearly
everything produced on this
model farm is consumed on the
place except the nursery trees.
The soil .of the Connecticut
farm was as unpromising as soil
could be, and the market for
the little that could be raised
on it was not much better. Yet
here are two men who enjoy
every comfort that man needs,
are accumulating money solely
through the use of their brains.
They studied the situation care
fully, adapted their products to
the demand and came out on
top. What they did in Con
necticut other agriculturists can
do almost an v where else in the
Union. The farmer has had
reason to comtrfain of hard times
but let him remember, above
all thines. that the Lord helps
those who helD themselves. If
the crops he has always raised
am a Aran in the market then
htt ran do aa the Connecticut
men did, produce other things
i i, : :n
lUSi ar in UUIUUU. uiamn n til
solve it. and seeminsr accidents
will always point the way t)
the thin tr that will be successful
It will give the cue. It did this
in the case of the New. Canaan
paying staples.
A Chapter on Giving.
The man who can give his
daughter a ten-dollar bill with
out a fling at the extravagance
of women, without a sneer at
their love of dress, without a
melancholy reference to im
minent bankruptcy, without,
indeed, a single unkind remark,
is as rare as a daughter who
never wants a ten-dollar bill.
We have fteja wondered
whether fathers realize how
their daughters dread to ask for
monev. Iher have to face a
torrert of grumbling and a host
of complaints, which are often
very unjust, for the economical
daughter receives about the
same dot as the extravagant
one.
A recent writer says that a
desire for pocket money drives
thousands of girls into man
ufacturing poor love stories for
the periodicals, and that this is
true we know from personal ex
perience. Not long ago a young
girl of our acquaintance went
to her father with a request for
money. Well, things had gone
wronif that day. and pater I am
ilias Kjoke some very hart,
harp words to his daughter,
and she came from the library
with a pair of flushed cheeks
and angry eyes, blie was not
quite ..ixtwu; a sturdy-limbed,
plucky girl, and what do you
suppose she did? There was a
fail of snow that night, and the
next morning she shovelled the
snow from All the sidewalks in
the neighborhood, thus winning
some pocket money, greatly to
the mortification of her parents,
and the amusement of her
friends. But all girls have
neither the strength nor the
courasre for such - feats. They
suffer severely from their sense
of helplessness.
But now we are wandering
from our subject into deep wat
er. for we are writing of givers,
not workers, and we conclude
with a query, the answer to
which is, perhaps, a trine puzzl
ing: Does the oft repeated
quotation, "God loveth a cheer
ful giver," apply only to the
conscience dollar slipped into
the contribution box? "
Immigrants In Detention.
New York, July 21. Thirty
immigrants, all Russian Jews,
are in the detention bureau at
the Barge office awaiting the
decision of the . superintendent
of immigration. It is probable
they will all be sent back, as
each one has been assisted.
One of the detained immigrants,
a young man 20 years of age, a
carpenter by trade, tells a dis
tressing story oi his own adven
tures and sufferings in Russia.
Ha became a susDect while
working at his trade in Riga,
and, to escaye Siberia, which
was the inevitable, he fled from
city to city, pursued constantly.
He was finally taken prisoner,
beaten and treated most inhu
manely and prepared for Sibe
ria, when he again managed to
escape, tie succeeded in reach
ing the frontier, and by the as
sistance of his countrymen, was
sent to Hamburg. Here he was
further assisted and left for
America. He has no" money,
having been robbed of his mue
savings of six years when he
wna taken nrisoner in Russia.
and he says if he is caught
again in that country ne wjii
be put to heath. The Jewish
societies have taken hold of his
case.
Thk Sentinel advises the gen'
tlemen of Winston to pull to
gether. It is in unity there is
strength; it is In discord there is
weakness. That is good advice.
It's what we have been telling
'era here, too. The Sentinel
goes on to say, further: A kind
word fortius or that enterprise
costs you nothing and in the end
it may prove a handsome invest
ment. Men sometimes forget
they selfishly come to the con
clusion that they have a mono
poly of unkind words, when in
reality they are monkeying with
the blade of a dangerous weap
on; it's the other man that will
hold it by the handle to repel
your unjust assaults. We do
not suppose for a moment mat
these remarks would apply to
any one here, but they are made
for what they are worth and
would be worth a good deal to
anyone contemplating doing
what they advise against snouid
they need them.
