The outdoor occupa tion, too, will prove a welcome and healthful change from indoor drudgery, which they can afford to biro dune. fior no the farm. The decadence of funning of late years is largely due to the undeniable fact that city life has offered greater Attractions as well as greater profit lo the young. While It Is true that fann ing does not now rmjuire so severe and unremitting toil as formerly, can It be said that young people on tho farm have been encouraged to find their pleasures and relaxation at home? This Is the only way to nuil;e farm life attractive to the average youug jnun. If on each holiday he goes to the city, It will naturally soon seem to him that city life is all a holiday, while life on the farm is one of unceasing drudgery. It often bupiens that city boys kept at work in stores, and only allowed to go Into the country for vacation, see only the holiday side of farm Ufa, and acquire a love for It that those brought up on the farm too often do not share. Why do not farmers take a hint from these facts, and make a much holiday a possible for their sons at home? It Is time that the old rule, which made the boy hoe his row and run for water, while the men rented, was superseded 4y a practice which would give boys tha easiest tasks, and the little Invest ment that give largest profits, a the jest meant to interest them in farming and make this the occupation of tboir lives. , Fredlae; Fowl far Kgg. Injudicious feeding is one of the tnost frequent mistakes of beginner in poultry raising, and one that give rise to much ill success. Hons that are too much fed take on fat, lay soft egg or cease to lay any, get lazy, feverish, and are a ready prey to all sorts of chicken diseases. There should be fed only a much a will be eaten eagerly and bo more. As soon as the least In difference to food is manifested the supply should be cut short; and after each meal all food left uneaten should ' be cleared away. Grown fowls should be fed only twice a day at morning and evening. At noon, on our place, the different strains are turned out separately Into their exercising ground, where there is a pile of earth thrown up and sown with grain. They scratch into this heap for the hidden food, and strengthen' their muscles while doing it. The food furnished grown birds should be of a kind to make muscle without too much fat and, in my case, is particularly designed to produce ggs. The greater variety of food the better. FitaMn Nature. This sort of warfare is (or ought to be) entirely monopolized by amateurs and greenhorns. The growth of all vegetation Is governed by laws founded on scientific principles by the great author of all science. We may dodge the question In some cases, but we pro duce a monster invariably. To grow a plant In greenhouse, garden or on the farm In a superior manner, shows the grower to be a roan of senv a close observer, an honest observer of the law and gospel too. Such a man always succeeds, because the people, God bless them, encourage all effort which are successful.

It is not likely that o much will germinate in nn ground as beside the lire; but the result will uliow clearly the projortIon of sued that retains vitality. Lard is no longer the prime factor in estimating the values of a fat hog. Medium-sized porkers, with plenty of lean meat, are now most in demand. Hogs, such as used to be fattened until they were too weak to get up and eat, cannot make healthful pork, and a lard no longer bring a much better price than eatable meat there is no reason fur thus fattening them. "I have never had bog cholera on my farm," say Theodore Iewl. "Whenever I buy hog I quarantine them for some time at a distance to prove that there is no disease among them. I use only mature animals to breed from, and then keep them as long as they are profitable the sow till seven or eight year old. These things are worth considering by farmer.'' When the farm fails to produce the crops that once were easily grown upon it, the course to pursue is to restrict the acreage. -Cultivate only half the space, or even less, and concentrate all your manure upon it The crop will soon be larger than were secured from the entire farm, less expense will be incurred, the farm will improve in fer tility and the portion which is unused will be benefited by the seasons of rest given it No seed needs such frequent chang ing as potato. If planted on the same farm year after year they soon run out and will bear only small infeilor tubers. Careful selection of smooth, perfect po tatoes every year for seed and changing every few years will Improve both the quality and quantity. The scarcity of potatoes and consequent high price will tend to make early crops high next season, and farmers should take heed and profit thereby. llouneholU Hint.

THEFARALEKS' ALLIANCE, LINCOLN, NEB. Loaning Money on Land On Hundred and Fifty Years Aga in Pennsylvania. Iavid Hume, the Scotch bUtonan, who died in 1776, is considered among literary men a a reliable historian. In a letter to the French economist, Andre Morelet, written a few Tears prior to hi death, he says regarding tho Issue of paper currency to the people: "In our colony of Pennsylvania the land itself.which Is tbecbief commodity, is coined and pastes into circulation. A plautcr immediately on purchasing land can go to a public office aad re ceive notes to the amount of half the value of the land, which be employs In all paymeuts.and they circulate through the colony by convention. To prevent the public being overwhelmed by this representative money there tie two means employed : First, the note issued lo any one planter must not exceed a certain amount, w hatever may bo the value of the land; secondly, every planter Is obliged to pay back into the public ollice every year opu-tonth of bis uole. l ha wuole is, o! course, annihi lated in ten years, after which it is again allowed him to take out new notes to half the value of his land. This was the monetary system under which the American colonists prospered to such an extent that Kdniund burke said of them: "Nothing in the history of the world is like their progress." It was a wise and bene lice ot system, and Its effect was most conducive to the happiness of the people. Take the cae of a family, Industrious and enterpris ing, driven by niisfortuue or persecu tion to seek a refuge in the wilds of the new world. With their scanty means they purchase a tract of land. Many years of -hard labor, privation and anx iety would have been necessary to bring that family into ft state of decent Voiu petency had they been required to Pur chase gold and silver by labor ami the product of labor before they could ef fect other Improvements on their prop erty. Hut half the value of hi laud was advanced to the real head of the family in notes which circulated as money. With these notes he can pur chase seeds and necessary implements of husbandry aad cattle.and thus where without these notes one acre would not be cleared, cultivated and stocked in a jesr, ten would, by assistance of the paper money advanced, be re c aimed from the forest and rendered uroductive. Thus hope entered the dwelling of the poor emigrant. Ten years found him with tbe whole of his debt to the government discharged, the proprietor of a happy home, and the kind hand of a paternal government was stretched out still to advance to him again one-half of the Increased value of bis land and thus enable him to clear away more of the forest and settle bis children in new homes. Such was the system by which tbe British, "a set of miserable outcasts," were converted, In a short space of time, into happy, contented and prosperous colonists. A prosperous people are generally well satisfied with the government under which they live. When, in 1770, Benjamin Franklin was examined before committee of the whole bouse of commons, he was asked "what was the tempter of America to wards Great Britain before 1783," he answered: "Tbe best in the world. They sub mitted willingly to tbe government of tbe crown, and all their courts paid obedience to tbe act of parliament. Numerous as the people are in the sev eral old provinces, they cost you noth ing in foru.citadels.garrisons or armies to keep them in subjection. They were led by a thread. They had not only a regard for, affection for Great Britain, for its law, its customs, its manners, but even a fondness for its fashions, that greatly increased its commerce. Natives of Britain were always treated with particular regard; and to be an old England man was of itself a char acter of some respect, and gave a kind of rank among us." Tbe British government took away from America its representative money, commanded that no more paper bills of credit should be issued.that they should cease to be a legal tender, and collected the tax in silver. This was in 1773. Now mark the consequences. This con traction of the circulating medium par alyzed all the industrial energies of the people. Kuin sei.ed upon these once Houiisbing colonies; the most severe distress was brought home to every in terest and to every family; discontent was urged on to desperation, till at last "human nature rose and asserted its rights." In 1775, the American con gress first met in Philadelphia; in 17' (f. Ameiica became an independent state. A Sample of Railroad Robbery. A farmer who lives near Bancroft, Neb., sends to the World-Herald a good illustration of the Iniquity of the pres ent railroad charges In Nebraska. He is the owner of 400 bushels of corn. Practically this is a car load. He asked for tho car load rates to get his 400 bushel to the Omaha market, and the railroad agent informed him that It would cost Itlui S-l'.'. Tha distance is seventy-two miles. This charge is equivalent to 10 cents a bushel. Does anybody need to be told that is an outrage? Just across the river in Iowa the same amount of com, that is to say, one car load, would Ik trans ported seventy-two tulles for about 913. In that state the farmer staud some chance of getting his corn to market without bemg bled and robbed. Another case which comes from Lyons. Nub., illustrating the other phase of railroad extortion in Nbr)t a, shows bow communities are rubbed by the railroad on good which they are compelled to buy.
