NlocU for Irofit 0:1 tlic Farm.
Stock raising has always been the
most profitable I eat me of mixed
Tarming among the masses. How it
is much more to, ;viih this one con
dition, that the sfock raised for
profit must be improved blood.
Scrub stock no longer pays as well
to sell the farm products as to feed
them to good stock. Then good
stock is what formers waut, not fine
or fancy stock, but stock judiciously
graded up, improved every year by
breeding only to thoroughbred
males. Such stock matures earlier,
grows larger, makes better meat, and
sells for more money than scrub
stock ou the same feed. Although
the price of stock is very low, the
remedy is to raise a better quality
that matures quicker and commands
the best price.
One of our exchanges gives the
following reasons why a system of
mixed farming, which includes the
raising of stock large!', is surer and
at the same time more profitable,
that thus the farm is kept up to its
origiual fertility and often to in
creased fertility. These farmers
never make an entire failure of
crops, however bad the season. His
fat stock gives him cash returns
twice a year, if necessary, oucc in the
6pring from winter feeding and
agaiu in the autumn from pasturage.
In the case of sheep, this gain is add
ed to by the wool gold in the sum
mer. His dairy and poultry yard
will furnish no small sum during
the spring, summer and autumn.
The milk, butter aud cheese, and a
well kept vegetable garden, will fur
nish one-half the living of the family.
These rules, as stated, are general
ones. They will apply to all sec
tions of the country, north, south,
eaht and west, being modified only
by climatic conditions and the
adaptation of certain animals and
plants to a climate. The rule will
apply always. The farmer who
raises the greatest variety of crops
or animals which his soil is capable
of sustaining, is, all things consider
ed, the best and most successful.

Icath of a 3Iisci.
For many years past there has re
sided at Crooked Creek, Miim..about
eight miles north of New Albin, an
eccentric old German, supposed to
be a miser. He secluded himself as
much as possible, and desired to be
lefl alone. He is reported to have
had considerable wealth buried on
his farm. A number of years ago a
party of men went to his lonely hut
at midnight and attempted to extort
from him his money, and on his re
fusal, they divested him of his cloth
ing, made a fire in his stove, and
held him over it till he was fearfully
burned, threatening to take his life.
He still refused, saying, "My life is
worth nothing if I have no mouey."
A few weeks ago he was taken sick.
Mr. Ward, a neighbor, called to see
him and oflered assistance. lie told
him that he would take him te his
own house and care for him, or, if
ho preferred, would make arrange
ments to have him taken to some of
his friends if he had any. The old
man refused, and told Mr. "Ward to
get out and not meddle with his
affairs. As he has at times kept
himself out of sight, no attention
was paid to his nou-appcarauce for
some days after. Ono of his neigh
bors., however, had occasion to call
on him this morning to sec about
some cattle. He found the door and
windows fastened, and as everything
did not look right, he went down to
the railroad track where the section
men were at work, and asked that
one of them would go with him and
ascertain how matters stood. The
request was granted, and on rcach
' ing the house the door was pried
open. Un entering, the ofiensivc
6mell could not at first be endured.
After waiting a few moments out
side, they entered the second time
and found old Nic ou his pallet dead
and rotting, with big black bugs and
worms feeding on his putrid re
maius. It is thought he died from
want and proper care, while he had
abundant means to provide all that
was necessary for his health and
comfort.

remarks :
The report of the epidemic at
Darmstadt being concluded, allow
me to make a remark as to its pos
sible cause, one which I have not
observed taken notice of in the cor
respondence on this singular out
break of tho disease. It is well
known that women and children arc
in the habit of kissing pet cats aud
dogs, especially wheu these favorites
arc ill, with discharge from the nose,
cough, and sore throat, and even
use their pocket handkerchiefs to
wipe away the secretion. I have
seen this done frequently. It is a
common saying, "There, the cat has
got a cold; now it will go through
the house," and as this remark has
been repeatedly fulfilled, it shows
how careful people should be in
avoiding contact with such a mode
of contagion. I do not affirm this
was the way iu which the disease
was contracted either within or
without the palace walls, but I feel
sure the habit of kissing pets is a
source of danger that should be
Widely known aud prevented.

Editou Journal. : An old lady
of more than three score years and

something for it which will particu
larly remind the readers thereof, of
the "old folks in the old, old home,"
who month after month look iu vain
for a letter from their children who
have "gone west," and are scattered
far and wide. I clipped the follow
ing poetry from a piece of an old
stray paper, aud I do not know who
the author is, but I think it is better

on that subject, evcu though I

I ask a place for it in the Journal,

WHITE THEM A LETTElt TO-NIGHT.
Don't go to the theatre, grange, or ball,
Hut stay in your room to-night;
Deny yourself of the friends who call
And a good, long letter write
Write to the sad. old folks at homo
Who sit when the day is done.
With folded hands and downcast eyes
And think of the absent one.
Don't selfishly scribble "excuse my
haste,
I've scarcely the time to write."
Lest their brooding thoughts go wander
ing back
To many a bj--gone night,
When they lost their needed sleep and
rest,
And every breath was a prayer
That God "would leave their delicate
babe
To their tender love and care.
Don't let them feel that you've no more
need
Of their love or counsel wise;
Forthc heart grows strangely sensitive
When age has dimmed the eyes
It might be well to let them believe
You never forget them, quite;
That you deem it a pleasure, when far
away,
Long letters home to write.
Don't think that the young and giddy
friends,
Who make your pastime gay,
Have half the anxious thought for you
That the old folks have to-day.
The duty of writing do not put oil";
Let sleep or pleasure wait,
Lest the letter for which they looked and
longeu
Be a day or an hour too late.
For the sad, old folks at home.
With locks fast turning white,
Are longing to hear from the absent one
Write'them a letter to-night.
