Hut is it good economy to persist in growing products tlmt r- are evidently unprofitable! With most formers a system of work tlmt enables them o feed out to thrifty vigorous stock the greatmt rt of what is grown on the farm will give the best results. Specialists realize a large profit when the eon aittous uutler which they are at ' work are favorable, but the major ity of farmers will find diversitietl forming the most profitable. This implies the keeping of few sheep for. wool, mutton am? Iambs; some cows for milk, butter and calves; some horses to do the necessary farm work, and to raise colts, that at a proper maturity, can be marketed; some hogs tor meat and to market. Ity keeping diilerent kinds of stock the var ious farm products are ushI to bet ter advantage, while growing a var iety of crops will lessen the cost of feeding the stock for market, af ford a better opportunity for keep ing up the fertility of the soil, dis tributing the work more evenly throughout the season, and in this way lessen the cost, liut in all this, as a rule, it will be found lest to make some one product the leaning crop, aim tue ot Hers as aids to it W ith sheep, this may be early lambs for market, choice mutton in the winter, or au extra quality of wool. AVith cows, it may be good cattle for lHcf, a large quantity of milk which will yield plenty of cream, from which a good article of butter can be made. In either case the ground should be carefully looked over and the conditions under which the work must be done should be well con sidered in order to avoid mistakes. With good management there is always some part of tho formiug either crops or stock, that pay t fair profit, and the farmer that grows a variety will be more likely to have some of these than the one who makes a specialty of one or two things. v II !
