BOW. TO HAKE MOHEY AT FARMIIfG.
The question of labor is beginning
"to assume a proportion of considerable'
importance. Hitherto the- farmer
has offered th,?. laborer ouotbird "of
tbo produco of the soil as hire, and
many find themselves making nothing,
at it, while on tbe other-hand, tbe
freedman if* complaining that "he
can't live at the third." Nor can ho
live on tho third qf the*pradnco of a
poorly managed and bad . conditioned
farm. The only help for "if, in our
own opinion is: ... . ;
1st. Not to plant one foot of land
that iB anm&naced.
2d. To hire dnly as many laborers,
abd to keep only .as many horses , as
- are absolutely neCoawiyv
3d. To pay the laborers, not in the
-produceof the farm; but in money."
4th. To'bite labor by the month.

The Southern Tbade.?Wo oxtract
tho following trom a communication
in tho Now York Timesu of
Friday:
Southern salesmen, who make a
practico of staying in New York six
months of the year, and tho remaining
six of traveling through the South
drumming up trade, aro appearing in
the city in largo numbers. Their
I principal headquarters are at the ho-L
tela, whero are to be found a largo
majority of their customers, In coaj
'sequence of Southorn arrivals, the
hotels are beginning to do a good business..
Tho systom of conducting business
with Southern merchnts baa bocomo
qujto a distinct feature in New York
trade. At present, tbey seem to bo
completely under tho control of tho
sidesmen, who receive, not a^ stated .
salary, but a commission on the Bales
effected. Years ago thero were very
low salesmen wno woricea simply on
cdmmisaion j but since the close of. the
war the applicants for situations havo
bocomo so numerous that merchants
find it to their benefit to engage men
on their merits, tbo standard of whicix
islbe quantity oi goods they can diaposo
of. *
The favorablo cotton reports will
doubtless bring to New York a very
fair trade irom the Sonth. Although
our merchants do not calculate on a
heavy Southorn demand, they tely on
?n invni*itVArl hnniu ntrnr hnf nf Itfof
yoar for doing business. .
Viewing the prospects of the . fall
trade in a general way, our merohant&
have reason to look forward to 4>usy
times. Good crops in the West> and
Sonth are always considered as sure
