LABOR FROM YOUTH TO OLD AGE Poverty of the Farmers—Learning Trades—The Great Incubus, the Ariry, the Fine Arts, Reserved for the Rich. American Farmers' Gentlemen. Western Agriculturist: Hogs and sheep are herded in common by some old and decrepit man, who gets for his valuable services about #40 each . A man servant receives the munificent sum of $40 to #60 a year.and a woman, nearly as stout as a man, half as much, The American would think that, as servants are so cheap, everyhody could hire a few. Well, if the farmer only had any money, he might do so. After the hn_\ gets out of school, at age of 13 or 14, he is put out to learn boy who has any sense whatever must learn some kind of trade. provided, of course, his father to pay some master for teachi: i de. He is bound to th for about thr yea and in cases for o longer period. It will he noticed that the boy must pay the mas- ter who teaches him his trade a tain sum of money; the price lated by law and custom. Whil ing the trade the boy also docs chores around the hou nd makes himself ganerally useful. This is done to give the hoy a little pleasure and varies the monotony. After his time up he generally goes on the tramp perfects himself, This p ak very much, but he carns just enough to live. About this time he the great incubus, the few escape th is able # him trade 50 is d aries about is drafted into and very nd none if in good phys ndition and of fair men- tal He must serve three years and is then sent home on a fur- lough, which may expive any time. rmaing in re soldier unlil he is forty-five y . and after that he belongs to the Immn g -xL He usually marries after he has passed his i term of service. he girls of the family help the old at home, and if there are more than are actually needed for home work they too Ik service in some family whére they may make themselves use- ful in houschold duties, making hay, ete, ‘What do our American boys think of this treatment? music and other fine for the sons and daug! ity and to the rvich city people The farmers need no special eaue Eliong e little use to them ar forgetting that the wood \\hwh is used by the farmer is such as the people in this country burn as trash in the open ficlas, The boys re required when herding the cattle to ch dead limbs as they find in nderin and bundle them to- gether and carry them home. [f one makes a mistake and gets upon gove ment ground, and carelessly abst an armful, and the forester catches him the penalty is 85 or more, and this a country where money arce that a whole mark, 25 cents, makes the boy rich. Altogether, we may s contented farmer in head or two of your ittle of your abundance of grain _or other pro- ducts, and visit \nul' brother farmer in Europe. Take our word for it, you will not stay or become enchanted with his coundition. We will give you just one month to live there, under the same circumstances, and you will return to your own native land, and bless your Creator that you are again in God’s land. It is almost superfluous to explain why this condition exists. The agr culturist in foreign lands, no matter how intelligent, diligent or persever- ing he may be, hasno chance to become independent or rich. He may work until his death with all possible skill and endurance, the enormous taxes and limited area will “keep his nose to the grindstone” all the days of his life. Another cause is that much of the time is wasted. Their tools are ineffective and poor. They arve constantly placed at a great disndvantage by having their necks in the yoke. The farmer over yonder can have but little ambition. He works exactly as did his father be- fore him. Beyond the superficial edu- cation he gets in his youth he has no opportunities to acquire any knowl- edge. Where we have in this country a hun- dred live and well edited newspapers, which are speciaily devoted to agricul- ture in all its branches, there are haps a do issued on the othe side devoted to such purposes. But fe of them are intended for the every day farmer. These journals are published for the farmers who are very wealth and are read t few only. In Ameri we have lots of first-class, practical far- mers’ papers. all of them cheap, and certainly within the means of the very poorest. Even the city newspapers, those that are not devoted exclusively to agriculture, have a special depart- ment devoted to it, and all recognize the importance of the farming industry We venture to assert that there is not a paper as good as the Western Agricul- turist published in a rope. What is true of this class of journals is equally applicable to all other newspapers is- sucd in the United States. This is the only country in the world, with perhap ralia excepted, where the farmer isrecognized upon his proper merit. Here he 1s a gentleman who is entitled to rank among the noblest of God’s creatures, the one who feeds the nation, and upon whom the strength ot the nation rest. In foreign lands he is only the tiller of the soil, with no aim in life to make himself the equal of those less fitted to fill the exalted stations. The American farmer’s chances to become the ruler of the greatest nation on earth are just as good as those of the one who is born with a “golden spoon.” There are those who come to this country from other lands, and decry and belittle us and our methods. These possess no gratitude. If these very people live there, they would be the un- Empmmt creatures in existence. No doubt it sounds big to hear one of them say that they raise fifty and sixty bushels of w hcul tothe acre in their na- tive land, but they forget to tell how much toil and cave 1t took to do it. They most either do it or starve. They forget to tell that it took all of their family, even the little children and wives and daughters, to put the ground into proper condition, sow the seed, and tinully gather and thresh it in the most laborious manner, yet they can get but o trifle of it for their own comfort. It is after all sold to get the money to pay taxes, ete, Compare with this the average farmer in this country. He does not get so much wheat from each acreas theother, but he has more land, which requires but little labor, and urh&nly not that and girls The study of arts is : ters of the nobil- to the dis- reriea, sell a of tender women and children.

Western Agriculturist: The success- ful sheep breeders of the world are those who have bred for wool or mut- ton, and while not ignoring the other product of their flock, have only d pended upon itas a supplement to their orofit. Hence we say the way of safety 1s in the way in which the general far mer had better travel, and leave exper- iments for specialists to try Jt is an old saying thut "lhu the half of the flock or herd.” 1t may be said just as truly that the dams are the other half. S0 the sheep breeder should secure the best ewes he can af- ford, of the type he has selected to breed, and let him bear in mind that he nnot afford to breed from inferior ewes, n if he can get them for a very low price. Above all the foundation stock should be uniform. The difference of even hundreds of doll in the price of a good or inferior flock of breeding ewes may be made or lost on the first crop of lambs, not to speak of succeeding crops; and when we come to breed the next generation, the char ter of the parents is even move clearly indicated than in the fivst cross,and tl average farmer can searce expect to live long enough to breed out all the blood of an inferior foundation stock. If then the ewes should be the best that the bree n afford to own, how much more important that the ram should excel in the characteristies which he wishes to impress upon the flock Just here many breeders make a mis- take in s g ram. He should bear in mind that the offspring will usually be a compromise of character- istics betweem the sire and dam, and he need not jeet to have his lambs just like the sire. In fine wool sheep especially, young breeders are apt to se- lect a ram ‘with u ewe’s flecce, and pos- E ine appearance, be- wise the fleece is just what he wants on lambs, and because the ram is smooth and looks about like his leal of the sheep he wishes toraise. Thousandsof bre ers are making this mistake every and are disappointed because they have never learned to receive the old maxim that “like produces like” in a modified sense—that is, it produce like, but only in a degree. Our doctrine is then, that for the breeder of fine wool sheep the ram should be large, strong and vigor- ous, with a masculine un pearance, and carry a flecce of three Emlr times the weight you expect to aheu‘ from your lambs, if they are bred from grade e'wes. If mutton is the object, then the ram should excel in the churuclcl‘iblicn of the breed he belongsto, in the same de- gree as the fine wool ram, We have thus far said nothing about the ram being pure bred, of whatever breed he is. If there are any who have not yet learned the first lesson in stock breeding, to them we can give no ad- vice, for I have never yet learned to even guess what the offspring of grade sires may be. Having secured as nearly as possible what the breeder wishes as the parent stock, both ram and ewes should be in vigorous health,but not really fat at the time of breeding. As the time of gesta- tion in ewes is about five months, every one can select for himself the time he wishestohave his lambs dropved. This, as well as all the details of sheep breed- ing,must depend upon the circumstances and surroundings of each breeder. f he has comfortuble sheds anda good supply of early cut, well cured clover hu\ and has determined that he will f“e is sheep close attention, re- gardless of his own ease,early lambs are most profitable, In our locality (south- e is ev has | rds | e in this | | enough for a young lamb, western Pennsylvania) from the middle bruary to the middle of March is about right for mutton lambs, and from he tirst of March till the t of that month will be about right for stock sheep. has to keep his seeep in poor t all, or if he thinks more se than he does of his st tter not have his lambs dr until later in the spring, when will help the ewe to take care of her lamb. There are several reasons why early breeding is advantageous, among whi re: 1. The ram will be able to get a greater number of ewes with lamb, and still the last is often the case with late breeding. 2. A good hearty ewe, if well fed and sheltered will on dry feed give milk and it will take it all, and thus keep upthe natural flow; and when put upon grass, the milk will inerease. and the lamb having age. is able to use it profitably, and none be left over in the udder to check the stion afterward. . If a lamb dies the ewe will dry off readily without much injury. 4. The early lambs may be weaned much ‘1\4 v in the season, and thus riv w chance to get in good condition b-fore winter. H.

A mixture of equal parts of outs, corn and bran is the best feed at this tune.

As soon as the ewe and lamb are both tisfied with the new relation and doing right they should be placed in a separato appartment, not only for the conven- ience of the shepherd. but for the gooa of both sheep uu& lambs, The suckling ewes need more grain and less exerc than the ewes with lamb.

Last year it cortainly paid to save the fodder, as hay was scarce and high. This year there is plenty of excellent hay, and many farmers will go back to thé old way because it is easier. Theve are others who may seriously question whether it pays to save fodder in ordi- nary years. Such may be glad to hear the opinion of careful and competent men, who base their conclusions upon trials, not upon gugss work. The local- ity hus some effeet, and, allowing for that, will give a fair statement. Professor Henry! says it pays. Here are some of his claim “If the corn fodder of the west were properly saved, economically handled and judiciously fed, in ten years time it would pay off every fair mortgage in the Mississippi valley. There are about one and two- fifths acres of corn fodder now growing for every heud of eagtle in the United State: So large,an amoun of feed wasted Is only possible in the United States.” President Chamberlain says: **The corn plant has two halves of equal value —the ear and the fodder.
