Farming is the chief vocation of oar people, and everything is to l encouraged that tends to i's im provement and elevation. Bat the publication of papers will do no gcxxl unless tbey are read by practical farmer. One of the difll- caltle iu toe w.v of agricultural access is the latiure to unite theoretical and practical farming. We sometimes see a man who can take his pen and make farming appear the most beautiful and sue ceasful vocation :n the world ; vet, if you go on his farm and sej his practical result" joa caunot escape the conclusion that he has made a miserable failure. Science cannot take the place of experience; study in the library cannot atone for delinquency in the roeld. There must be a judicious eombiuatiou of theory and practice, or failure is inevitable. The agricultural pjper will furnish the theory, the farmer him self must supply the practice.

I used to think then, and I think now, that a majority of our farmers were working dOo days in the year for the sole benefit of the imple ment men. The absurd desire of every man to own every machine that his neighbor had, and the facility with which he could buy it, on a year's time, by giving his note, led the community as a whole into purchases that were positively absurd, and kept every farmers nose to the grindstone for the bene j fit of the implement maker and the i money lender.
