The desirabil thorough systematic and scien o)End drainage *as acknowledoed, Sse vera reasons prevented its acop . }Many farmers were in debt for thsW land, or for improvements they had muad on it. Others owed consider Able for farming im lements and stock. St~l others were aesirous of buying More land in the vloinity of their farms while it was still comparatively cheap. All these persons hesitated about bor rowig money to improve their places by laying draln-tile. Afarmor who has ust got out of debt hesitates to plunge nagain. He realizes such a relief from a great burden that he is reluctant to assume a new one. Farmers who are land-hungry are reluctant to pay out as much money to drain a piece of land as it will cost to purchase another piece of equal extent. Besides, many farmers have negleoted to drain their land for want of information on the subject, and en account of a lack of material within easy reach. The present Is a favorable time for Western. farmers to consider the pro priety of draining their low lands. Most of them have money to invest. $ome desire more land, but they find it hard to obtain in the vicinity of their homes. They can do no better than to render the land they have more produc Live by means of drainage. On many farms there are tracts that produce nothing but coarse grass that is of lit tle value for stock. These low tracts can be rendered the most pro(ductive of any on the farm by the judicious use of. drain-tile. Low land receives the wash of that which -es above it, and in time becomes very rich in all the. ele-ents of plant food. By the use of drain-tile the area of. plowable land can be greatly increased on a large oportion of prairie farms. By the Ime means the productiveness of much and that can be plowed in favorable Seasons can be increased. In many cases the ylid Of nearly all the culti vated crops can be0 dlouled by the adoption of a suitable drainage. If a farmer wishes to ra:se more than~ he now dos and has the choice between buying more laud and draining what he owns, it is better to select the latter cour~se. By so doing he wvill save fene ing and taxes. He wvill also save mutch labor. No more plowingL and cultiv'at ing, and. but little more hibor in harvest-. ing, are required to p~rodune a largoe crop than a small one. Drainamgc in creases the quality as well as the quan tity of crops. It also lenlgthmens out the season in wich the landl enn lbe worked. It enables the farmer to plo0w earier in 6 spring and lamer in the fall. It also ..Ienables him to do better work with any implement he uses in the soil. It helps insure crops against bad seasons. -However (desirable undlerdra inage may be, it should not be undertaken without 1' ~ due conlsideration. A farmer should learn before he commences operations how much the improvements are to -cost. lie should ascertain wvhere lhe can obtain tile, the cost at the mnin factory', and the cost of transportation. Hie should also learn how to dig (ditches, Jay the tile, and pla1ce thme earth about them. Ditching is an art that requires considerable skill. Many farmers have lost heavily by attemp~ting to undler drain land wvith the aid of such knowl 9d1ge as thef have derived from a news * ~ paper article or a circular sent out by some tile factoriy. * Unless a farmecr is willing to spend considerable time in learning how to do the work properly. * and to purchase the necessary tools and * implements, he will find it profitable to employ the services of a surveyor to lay out the work, andi to engage an experi enced ditcher to perform it. Much can be learned by visiting some portion of Indiana or fllinois, where much land has been drained. Excellent works on farm drains ge have boon written, whieb give in detail nearly all the informa tion required to enable an intelligent farmer to do all the work. ---C/ncago "So Yong and Yet 8o Unhappy."

His slowness of mo Lion in comparison with the horse ha subjected him at times to some preju dice, and, by those who are anxious t( see everything move by the force o steam, to a depreciation of his value But I believe generally that the farmer of Massachusetts on this subject hav adopted the proverb iftustrated i Esop's fable of the "Tortoise and th Hara"-"the greater haste, the lei speed;" and indeed it has been alread laid down as an axiom by. a committe of farmers of Massaehusetts,. men wh best oight to know the value of tlisan mal, that the interests of the farmer, fc most purposes, are best promoted b substituting the ox for the horse, an this for the following reasons: lie is fe with less expense, is more patient of If bor, and is more valuable when.his se: vices are ended. The use of the mowing machine:whic renders it necessary for the owner of or to keep a pair of horses, has dtiminishe the number of working cattle in Easter Massachusetts, ail I am inclined I think all over New England. I ain f( disposed, however, to give up oxen 0 that accoiut.

The Rocky/ Aoun y fain J'rcsb*tcrian, in comwenting on V this fact, says : " When the sun is giv o i.g its good-nighitkiss to our westernmost )f isle, on the confines of Behring's sea, it r- is already flooding the fields and forests d or Maine with its morning light, and in the etast'tern part of the State is more than e an hour high.

A r a level of the sea, or where the U mercury stands in a barometer tube thirty inches high, water boils ai.1 an open C dish at a temp. ratuo of 212 degrees. For every 550 feet we ascend it boils at one (egree less. Thus, at an elevation of 1,100 feet it hoils At 210 degrees, and at aln c4Vation of 5,500 feet at 202 de Cgrees.

A ,. parasite bores into the shell of the pearl >t bearer, and when felt by the animal it immediately fortifies itself by covering ,e up the spot with its pearly secretion; the h~ parasite pushes on, the oyster piling up .. until an imperfect pearl attached to the a shell is the result. The clear oval pearls are formed in a similar way, only in this case a bit of sand has become lodged in d the folds of the creature, and in its efforts to protect itself from the sharp ~.edges, the bit becomes covered, layer by layer, and assumes naturally an oval ~,shape. This growth of the pearl, as it , is incorrectly termed, can be seen by b breaking open a $500 gem, when the aL macre will be seen in Tav ers resembling me the section of an onion.~ The Romans ;were particularly fond of pearls, and, e vaccordmng to Plmny, the wife of Caius oe Caligula possessed a collection valued w at over $l, 000, 000 of our money. ;- Julius Cxesar presented a jewel to the .mother -of Brutus valued at $250,000, is while the pearl drunk by Cleopatra was ~,estimated at $400,000. Tavernier, the d famous traveler, sold a p earl to the Shah ,h) of Persia for $550,000. A $20,000 st pearl was taken from American waters e mn the time of Philip II. It was pear n shaped, and as large as a pigeon's egg. a Another, taken from the same locality, r is now owned by a lady in Madrid who values it at $80,000. aFresh-water pearls are often of great Svalue. The streams of St. Clair County, Ill., and Rutherford County, Tenn., jproduce large quantities, but the largest one was found near Salem, N. J. It a was about an Inch across, and brought $2,000 in Paris. The pearls from the Tay, Doon and Isla rivers, in Scotland, are preferred by many to the Oriental, and in one summer $50,000 worth of Ypearls were taken from these localities by meni and children.

The size of a farm should be suited to the capacity of the pocket-book. Mapy young farmers make the mistake of buy ing a large farm with little money to pay for it. There is nothin that so binds a man as a heavy mo Mage. It eats the very heart out of the farmer, and hangs like a leaden weight upon every aspiration of his wife and chil dren. It Is better to buy a small farm and have enough capital to work it well. As the surplus Increases, it may be in vested in more acres, or in a better culture of those that -have already proved profitable. There is a size be low which many of the economies of the farm cannot be practiced to the best advantage, and on the other hand there Is danger of going beyond that acreage whero the most profitable farming may be carried on. It requires considerabfe executive ability to manage alarge farm, and therefore many men are excluded from such by a lack which they may not fully appreciate until the trial has been made and the failure re corded. Farming Is not like the taking of a citadel, and cannot be done successfully with a rush and a noise. It is a thoughtful and steady working out from well laid plans-a, conquest for crops, and the head must be clear that wins where the seat of a campaign for a life-time covers town ships or even square miles. The soil is the foundation of farming, and it should be tiltted to the kinds of crops that it is desired to raise. The differences in the nature and capacities of sand and clay should be understood, and a favorable mixture of the two obtained If there Is. an opportunity for choosing. A rich soil, with proper management, means good crops at once, but it may be as Irofitable to invest much less in an equal area of over-cropped land, and bring it up to a high state of cultivation by green manuring and other methods of restoration. The farm-house is to be the home of the family, and therefore the locality for the farm should be healthful. The richest land for the p rice may be on the border of a malaria breeding swamp, but the profits of the investment may be more than balanced by the .doctor's bills and loss of time, not to mention the discomfort of fevers In the household. It is important that there be an abundant water supply on all farms, both for the family and the live stock. There are social considera tions that no farmer should overlook in muaking a choice of a fairm. He lives not to himself alone; the children need the privileges of good schools, etc.; in short, the community should be one in which sympathy, goodness and intelli gence prevail. With a good farm of proper size, healthfully located, abundantly supplied with water, good neighbors, and a handy market, a man is so well situated that he ought to make himself and those around him happy. Choose well, and Xiold on to the choice.--The Agricult Ariot. ________ Getting a Character.
