MrVEnrroi?:?I suppose thnt ranny of |
your renders, no doubt, think that I have
been asleep all this time; your readers
aio mistaken. Although I have said no
thing, that is no proof of their belief. I
havenoticed in the Agricultural columns
of tlie''Times 'that none of the farmers
linvo been writing for that department,
and I think its beginning to bo time to
commence. February has come in, and
all who intend to plant a crop and tend
it, should commence now. Farming, Mr.
Editor, is not what it is cracked up to be
by some people. If we plant a crop, we
roust certainly work it, and if wo tend it
good, wo will surely reap the fruits of our
labor.
By the "sweat of the brow" we must
gain our livelihood, but unless we take
advantage of every short turn and think
more than we do it will be found a bard
task to gain a living, that way.
Your's Arc. Inquisitive.
Balky Horses.
Balking is a serious defect in a very
nscfttl animal, and it connot be overcome
by whipping or swearing at him. His
brain does not seem capable of entertain
ing but one thought at a time, and the
stubborn resolve not to move seems to be
uppermost in it. Therefore you must
endeavor to give him a now subject of
thought, and thereby change the direc
tion of his brain.
The simple trick of putting a small
quantity of earth or gravel, taken from
the road-side, upon his tongue, will suffice
to turn his attention to the new kind of
fodder offered to him. Now cluck to him
but don' strike him', and almost before
be is aware of it he is walking along and
and soon trpt.s as fast as i? needful. This
is a remedy much in use on the western
plains, where teaming is employed to per
form a vast amount of labor, and balky
horses are quite a common trouble. I
have seen it work to perfection on the
plains of Colorado, when whipping and
profanity were utterly ineffectual; a very
small quantity of earth and line gravel
mado its-mark directly. Kindness will
always produce a great effect upon horses,
and every driver should learn that pleas
ant words and tones are of much greater
use in making his hones obedient than
the whiplash, mingled with harsh oaths
and ear-splitting tones. s. o. j.
? In Onion Is Strength.
I am quite ashamed to take people into
my garden and have them notice the nd
sence of onions. It is very marked. In
onion is strength; and a garden without
its lacks flavor. The onion in its satin
wrappings is among the most beautiful of
vegetables, and it i? the only one that
represents the essence of things It can
almost be said to have a soul. You take
otrcoat after coat, and the onion is still
there: and when the last one is removed,
who darj) say that the onion itself is des
troyed, though you can weep over its de
parted spirit? I know that there is sup
pos?i {? be Inj prejudice against the onion
but I think there is rather a cowardice
in r$nrn^?%.
I doubt not that all men and women'
love thc.om?n; but few confess their
lovoA Afleotion for it is concealed. Good
New Engl?nders arc as shy owning it as
they arb of talking about religion. Some
people have days on which they cat on
ion? what you nlight call "retreats," or
their "Thursdays." The i\cl is in the
nature of a religious ceremony, an Elcu
sinian.mystery; not a breath of it must
get abroad. On that day they sec no
company; they deny the kiss of greeting
to the dearest friend; they retire within
themselves -and hold communion with
one of the most pungent and penetrating
manifestations of the moral vegetable
world. Happy is said to be the family
which can eat onions logi Iber. They arc
for the time beb ;;- separate from the
world and have a harmony of aspiration
IjCt them become apostles of tho onion;
let them preach it to their fellows, and
circulate tracts of it in the form of seeds.
In the onion is the hope of universal
brotherhood. If all men will eat onions
at all times they will come into a univer
sal sympathy. Look at Italy. I hope I
am not mistaken as to the cause of her
unity. It was the- Reds who preached
the gospel which made .ft possible. All
tho reds of Europe,. ?11 the sworn devo
tees of the mystic Mary Ann eat of the
common vcgitnhle. Their oaths are
strong with it. It is the food also of the
common people of Italy. All tho social
atmosphere ofthat delicious land is laden
with it. Its odor is a practical democracy.
In tho churches all aro alike; there is
one faith, ono smell. The entrance of
of Victor Emanuel rnlo Rome is only tho
pompous proclamation of a unity which
garlic had already accomplished; and yet
we, who boast of our.democracy,*eat on
ions in secret.?Charles Dudley "Warner.
