on tho now land when, first cultivated.
Tho fiatno can bp Bald of California, for,
although thcro nro rich valloys which

vet it is tho hlcht of imbecility to ox
poet it, as thoro is no noil in tho world
which can havo crops matured and tak
en off without losing fertility.
Thoro 1b a great deal of nonsensical
BilsstatcmontH in tho writings and say
ings of many in tho United titntca, who
t tho prcsont day attempt to teach tho
body of agriculturists now to farm.
Thoy havo ono old-tlmo, thrcadbaro
complaint of farms being too largo;
whorcaH tho real fault is that tho enp
ital employed is too small, or that tho
occupior knows nothing about good,

plenty of livo stock und tho produce of

Invariably hlro n man in tho npring nnd
dlschargo him in thoautumn; or, which
lu tho sarno thing, ho Is engaged only
lor the summer. If all tho land in tho
United States was in small farms, tho
farmers and their families would bo all
rcnulied on them in tho winter, thus
throwing all tho hired men out of em
ployment. If those men wore all thus
forced to engage in other than farm la
bor, or to quit tho country, then those
Jlttfo farmers would bo uimblo to culti
vate thJr Jajirt proporly for want of
help. If It would bo advantageous to
reduce tho farms to from f0 to 100 acre?,
it might bo well to do nwny with all
gigantic business, put astop to railroads,
allow of no such stores as A. T. Htow
nrt'H, liord it Taylor's, etc., and in short,
permit no man to employ more than
ffi.OOOor $10,000 at tho outside. Cor.

Tlio mw mill that is lc,iiig erected by Mr.

It is Mr. Smith's intention after awhile to erect
