AGRIOULTURE, T= Banas.-Farmers wno have not familiarized themselves with the breeds of sheep should bear in mind that they are behind the buyers, who can tell at a few momentW examiuation pxactly what kind of a sheep from which the itool was sheared and its fituess for the purpose for which it is desired. The ayers ktow the breeds, the kind of wool pectliar to each brood, and ill about them, for it is "business." A farmer would sneer at a carpenter who professed to be a carpenter and yet who could not do a piece of work in that line; and yet we venture to say there are hundreds of farmers who profess to be farmers, and who would be insulted if their knowledge of their business was questioned, but who, at the same time, cannot tell as much about the products of the farm as many of those who know nothing of farm life. There are hun. dreds of farmers who are not able to distinguish breeds .f sheep,and who do not know the particular parposes for which a breed is most sultable,and still they pride themselves on their calling as a business which they intend to make profitable. If such jarmeris could but be brought to a realisanon of the fact that they are really deficient In knowl edge, It would be to their interest to do so. Bvery year we witness the ship ment of the produots of the farm - to market where the buyer fixes the grade although he has had no experience on the farm. Farmers, as a class, are not business-like, for they rely too mucn upon the judgment of others. It is not intended to imply that they should not seek the advice of others, but when the farmer surrenders everythimg to hard work, we insist that he should hegin to 4 educate himself in every possible way in order to improve his ohanoies.
