Ie raised his own wheat, , corn, grist,” i. e, taking out for himself one- tenth, by measure. The same farmer grew and fattened is own pork, beef and mutton, a part f which he ate fresh, when the weath- er permitted its keeping, but most of which was salted or “carned. He produced all the milk and cream and butter and cheese which the family could ¢onstme from his own dairy: all tHe eggs and chickens they wanted from his own hen-yard: wool for making real cloth from the fleeces of his own sheep and, fre- quently, flax for cool linen summer wear from his own flax meadow. He grew his own hops and brewed his own beer or ale. uniroubleq by any sumptuary laws: fished. his own brooks and caught messes of -irout,| regardless of “open” or “closed” sea- | sons, which were not vet invented for| the benefit of rich idlers from the city: hunted his own woods and brought back quail and woodcock and partridge and grey. squirrel, and, oc- c y, wild turkey, ~with no ht of “game” laws which, again, t yet been dreamed of as con- sistent with freedom and equality. He had to buy some tea and pepper | and salt and calico and thread and a| few other things which he could not| produce or contrive substitutes for. Also, now, and then, a “hunk” of whi: loaf sugar, chopped off from a sol biock by the grocer. But, for the mo: part. the family relied for weetenin’ on the yield of its own maple trees, a ‘“sugar-bush” being considered al- most as indispensable a part of any farm forest as the fuel supply itself. | He never bought a beam or a board or a window-sash. 1f he has build-! ng, he cut his own trees. had them sawn into boards and planks at -the neighborhood saw-mill. while expert! with their huge “broad- s” hewed out the beams into the; requisite six by eizhts or ten by| twelves.—For they built with honest] timber, in those days, not with two-! by-fours for timbers and seven-eighths | or thinner boards for siding and lath Jiance on paint and putty to hold the | flimsy work together till the con- tractors could get away from it.

In short, the average New England ears ago was a semi-independent princeling on his own unrestricted and autonomous He eaw very little money in! the course of a year. but he had no things his own domain failed to suppl; him he obtained from others process of barter. He had to work for all he got-— hard and long. paying for his ng with sweat and callouses and by a Now we pay for most of our living {and ages ahead of those primitive| old backwoodsmen to whose hard-won vigor of constitution we owe the fact that we exist. But are we? Nowadays we very seldom get a| quarter of our own supplies from our | own farms. We sell almost everything | we raise, and, usually, have to sell it at wholesale rates. Then we take th scant money which the sale brings to us and promptly blow it in for the other things which our granddads used to produce for themselves, us- vally paying full retail - prices for them, That is, we sell our produce, mostly. for what the big dealers will pay al lowing themselves a wide margin of profit_ for handling. Then we buy from small dealers for what thcy see fit to charge, they allowing themselves always a margin or reasonable or un- reasonable profit, as their consciences Gictate. We lose at the bung and waste at the faucet. And then we boast of our “progress” and our “advancement” beyond anvthing dreamed of by vur forefathers! Just a hundred years ago, this spring, my grandfather died, leaving a widow with ‘a -brood of small children. My father was ten years old and, to help the overburdened mother, - an uncle adopted him and brought him to this farm. One of his first experiences at his new home was being taken for a two days’ trip with his uncle to “the river” and back. Every vear, in shad time, the far- mers of that day residing in this vi v sent one of their number to twenty-five miles away two-horse load. Starting early in the morning, he would reach the seining grounds in the afternoon, pick out his fish—never less than a ton and nsually more—load them, and start back about midnight. so as to make most of the return trip in the cool hours. Arriving home during: the forenoon, he would find the other farmers waiting for him. The load would be divided up, pro rata each sharer. would pay his portion of the cost and hurry to| his own home, where the fish were promptly cleaned and salted much like pork or corned beef. The highest price p: for a single shad, on these trips. was five cents and that meant an extra big. one, specially picked out and put one side for eating fresh. Last week I priced a shad at a mar- ket in my nearest city; $1.05 for the smallest one I could see in the bunch. So 1 am going without shad, this vear, It tastes too strong of money. down, Of course, for this and sundry other reasons, which we can't control how- ever much we may deplore them. such a shad-buying trip and such a shad- salting time would be absurdedly im- possible, these days.

Assuming twenty families in such a club, and assuming 500 pounds as the average weight of each carcass. it will be seen that each family gets an average of 25 pounds of fresh beef, every week. which it would seem ought to satisfy even a western family, with {hired men and hungry boys growing| up. There are a good many of us in the east who would think we were rather lucky if we could be sure of two pounds and a half a week—at the cost of raising and fattening, with no packer's or butcher's profits to pay and no freight to make up! These are simply illustrations and suggestions of changes which we might economically make in many of our farming practices.

They'd have starveq to death if they had Now I maintain that anything which | a man can do under the stimulus of duty and at the call of conscience. If he can’t. then he's not a free man but a slave—the slave of his own weaknesses. The forethought and the self-denial and the sacrifice which our fathers found not only practicable in order to sustain their own lives and support their families we their descendants, can, if we will, exercise for the salva- tion of a world menaced by a worse foe than they ever faced. If we can't or won't then we're not as good men as they were. Let's put that into our pipes and smoke it! THE FARMER. GLASGO School Children Vaccinated Because of Smallpox Cases in Voluntown.
