For centuries it was generally be.i. ved by those who dwelt in town that farmers ate large quantities of cream, and that their gardens were lull of every con ceivable - fresh vegetable - and fruit This theory has been exploded with a loud and reverberating report.

We farmers are often asked: Why don't you keep your boys on tire farm? W hy d: we not e?itertain them more? Why don t we have a. billiard tahie and orchestrian in the birn.'sa that our boys can be happy at home and not seelc to become rogues and de bauches? They also ask us why we do not get a pair of bright jed; mules and raise a flack of nice j- . RED MULES FOB THE BUSyImART. Mostevery one f eels - f ieJ to M vise the farmer and every littlerwhile some man who' has amassed eighty-four dol lars in trade comes out in the farm with a case of ginger ale, and also one of hay fever, bringing with him a lit tle red covered book on how to am use the soil so that it will laugh in the au tumn with abundance. Anon he will be seen trying to hive a large mortgage by means ot a green mosquito" net, but with ill success. The farmer obtains more such advice and example- than anybody else. Those who fear that they may not succeed as rag pickers in town, stiil know thatthey can succeed on the farm if tire worst comes to tne worst. Even the Snan that picks up the stubs of costly cigars in front of the Au thor's club by means of a gold headed cane with a brad in the end says to himself at night: "Viola! It matters not. Traybeyeut! If I fail at this the clever scented fields are awaiting me. Negotiant est negotiant ! I may at least btty a cow and raise virus for viccinating purposes on the farm." "EVEN THE SORE EYED BEGGAR Who haunts the busy marts sas over and over again beneath his ewe inspir ing breath: "1 am not at the bottom yet. P still live in town. If I fail mentally I may still be a farmer' But is there no way by which we us farmers may at least get a-percen tage or the vegetables I hut grow on the face of the earth? uHow I pity the people," :ays Mr. T.

Pork and patent medicines play into each others -hands on the farm, and the boy who ought to be a young gitit at twenty is a pal id, scanuy ami unhappy old man. Many a farmer boy lias to go into town for his watermelons, bis tipples and his strawberries.

Let ts take these re.it truths to heart, fellow farmers, and encourage, the truck patch, not for gain, but that our wives and children may be well and happy. Would you rather fill -a family with asparagus or pain killer? Should we properly nourish our chil dren or feed them with patent-medicines? ' It is true that we have many, very many foes to meet unfavorable weather from without and insects from within but these are to be met with 4 philosophy and other chemicals. Eter nal vigilance is the prjde of the water melon, and the same rule may be ap plied to other vegetables Many pre ventives hare been patented and intro duced among farmers, and most of them are of no avail. Yet, gardening has made much advancement, as has also agriculture generally, stock rais ing and bee culture. Some years ago, in Georgia, there lived a farmer whom we will call Troo fie Amos E. Troofie. ul was work ing one summer for. Troofie," paid a neighbor of mine the other day while speaking of the rapid strides that agri culture had made lately. "1 was work ing there and so was my brother dale. One afternoon a man comes along that was selling these patent bee gums with sashes to them that gits shet of a good deal of the trouble it is to hive a passle of bees, and he wanted right smart, to sell one to Troofie, but Troo fie felt too pore to buy patent bee gums as times was, for money matters was powerful scarce then. "But the ma., he hung on and al lowed that it would suit him to stop for dinner and feed the hor-c, and Uien if Troofie would furnish the lum ber he would build the gum for a dol lar and give Troofie the directions, so's 'that he could operate it and not get stung. "After dinner the man tQok and turned in and made the bee gum with w hat we could hope him, understand, and iron he give him Iih dollar and the man lit his pipe and ot in his wagon. Then Troofie savs regarding them directions, 'Mister, you mustn t forsiit that 'fore von go, fer nuthin' enters u.e like a bee sting, and I re gard 'em the pizenest thing m the whole world. 'All right, says the feller, and so Troofie calls me and O de to come there, sos that it he was away when the bees swamed we could 'tend to 'em without gittin' stung. " The teller took two or three draws at his ipe, and then he says, kind of slow and thoughtful, like a man that is far away from home and sort of lonesome like, 'You have saw,' he .is. "iiow the gum is made for the convenience of the bee, and with re gards to getting stung,' he savs, kind of touching up his stock with the whip and starting off down the road, H.he hi st wav to get hut of a bee sting is to cj 'NOT GO NIGH WHERE THEY AIR. Among the enemies to plant life are the ant, which I never could see tin uie of except for the sluggard, to re so.t U). . it Tho ant. or formica, is a small red or black insect with a sharp acid taste .... i t ;itii1 m Attica is eaten as a relisii in place of pickles.

Snails are voracious enemies of the garden, aud Mr. Grieiuer says that the only way to deal f witlrt hem is to scat ter pieces of orange peel ou the ground fit night, ami in the morning one can, if very active, capture the snail, which is soiond of the orauge peel that it forgets to go home to its family for breakfast, and thus may be headed off and run down by a brisk man. We need hardly mention the squash vine borer, the squash bug, the wire- worm or the unearned increment, all ot which are the enemies ot the far mer and the gardener. . Let us strive against these foes and seek intelligently to eat more good vegetables at home instead of saving: for our families those articles which the rich, the pampered and sedentary refuses to pay. Bill Nye. Overman at Concord. Correspondence ot tho Watcnman. . Concord, N. Sept: 5, 1802. Mr. Editor: Mr. Lee S. Overman, of Salisbury, spoke here to night before the Cleveland aud Carr club. It was indeed a poor effort for one of Ins ca pacity aud position. For r.rguments he substituted abuse, for facts he related falsehoods, and, in fact, a niore com plete failure seldom heard here. He said that the people were afraid to come out and hear discussion. He termed the people's party men hypocrites, thieves and rascals and this state was brought about by reading such per- literature as the Proftressice"0' Many-caudulates already bald- Fqrmev and similar papers. At one I time thev would heed the voice of the stump speakers, butnow thev learn of things in the midnight, and" will not listen to their talk. baid that the tlevi wou d rest in neaven as soon its Weaver would be president. Cleve land is agfcinst everything the people's party advocates. He argues strenu ously against the free and unlimited coinnge of silver, notwithstanding this very plank is in the platform to which he owes allegiance. What kind of a democrat is Mr. Overman when ie goes around speaking against his own State platform? If he is loyal to it, why not uphold its principles.''

His abuse of the ne- m-nes ad ei forth a good deal ot 1111- eonn)limentarv talk from them. He wants all to vote for btenvensou, also.

He said he believed that the third party- was a republican aid society, and that the "leaders in this State were guilty of arson, perjury and hog stealing, al though he admitted that he did not know anything about them except what he read in the democratic papers.
