Gen. Garfield as a Farm-er. . It is a pleasant walk of forty min- utes from the low lands surrou ding the Lake Shore and. Michigan So hen). Railway station at Mentor, Ohio, to the farm hozne of General Garfield. The residence is an unprete tioas story -and -a -half wooden cottage, tand- ing sidewise to the road, and w0 fur- nished with porches. Ever thing about the place, with the excepti n of the front fence, bears the appearance of being recently painted, and a good deal of general renovating has evidently taken place since the new o-wner came into possession of the farm. In response to my inquiry at the front door in regard as to whether General Garfieldwas at home, the reply was ob- tained that he was probably in his of- fice, a little east and a little back of the house. This building is a new struc- ture, built especially for the use to which it is devoted. The door, being slightly ajar, I opened it and entered, and found the object of my search en- gaged in writing letters. After cor- dially eltendiug his greeting the Gen- eral excused himself while he fi ished Ir the later upon which he was e gaged and meanwhile I had the occasion to glance around. the apartment. Three, aides of the room were completely cov- ered with books, extending froth the floor up as high as a man can reach. Some striking pictures are arranged over these cases, prominent among which are the pictures of the Electoral COmmIsSiOn., and. the Republican and Democratic lawyers who argued the great question before that high. tribunal. The floor is uncarpeted, but beneath the .deek and extending in every direction from ]tis a ricb mat made from a huge elk's skin, S. which a friend. sent from the Territorie The letter being at last finished, the General asked: " Would you like to look around. a little?" ' "Certainly," I answered, and, throw- ing his cloak over his shoulders,we pass- ed out to observe some of the c arac- teristics of his model farm. General, "This is our :supply tank," said. the as we approached a tall square building somewhat resembling a rail- road water tank. "When we , came here, I found a large tract of nine acres which had never been reclaimed. hens its native swamp. I proceeded to nnderdrain. it, and discovered an abun- dance of spring water. That is beyond the brow of the hill yonder. There I placed -a ram and laid pipes to the tank. In this way the house and ba,rnvard are suPplied coustantly -with the best of for,I3Prillg water. We found that theipipes 'lore were not put down deep enough, they lowerin - g them." froze and we have just been , An, interesting discussion followed be the General and Mr. Thomas Northcote, his efficient farm superinten- dent, in regard to whether the frost will penetrate iarther into solid earth or that which is comparatively loose in its nature. "Here s thyherd of cattle," said the Gener 1, as we approached the barn- yard. " T iere is the first animal born upon the fi rm. after I bought it (point- ing to a fi e two-year-old Durham hei- fer.) She s seven -eighths Durhana,and we conside her very fine. There is a full-bloode Alderney heifer which I purchased in Ealtirciore and. shipped here." "How many cattle have you?" " TwentY-two in all, besides two calves. Yca will notice that they are all more r less tinctured with the Durham b ood." Opening the barn- yard gate thid passing in, he said: "1 found this verydow and almost always muddy. I dug two holes. as you see, at either end of the yard, which I use to store mann '13 in, ancl the dirt thus ob- tained. has been used to fill up and grade the emainder of the yard. In this way w have made it dry at all sea - Sons ofthe year. You notice I have two sheds ver the manure piles. I be- lieve that t e wetting and bleaching of ma,uure inj resit nearly as much as it does hay. he best portions are thus destroyed.. When the stables are cleaned the result is wheeled out in a wheelbarrolv and deposited there." We next entered the cattle -barn of the farm. 'This barn was ready for use," said he General, "in just six weeks from the time the contract was let last June." The stall a are very wide and so ar- ranged that the cattle are chained. two in a stall. The General being a prac- tical carpenter himself, had somethings done which would tend to specially strengthen he framework. "I have some peculiar ideas about feeding, etc.," the General continued. "This o1db ilding was formerly a hogs pen, and. st od up within three or four rods of the' house, when I bought the place. I h (1 it moved back here and raised up several feet. Here we grind our feed (opening the dor of the build- ing). I rented this engine here for the winter by the month, and here I have a mill which shells corn and mixes it with oats and grinds it, all at one op- eration. We have found it a great suc- cess. Now, instead of a man having to take a team of horses and himself and go with a load of corn and oats to the grist mill and get it ground. by leaving an. eighth oflit for toll, it can be done here in less i.zase and all of it saved." Pretty soon the steam was up suffici- ently tci; grind well and the mill was started -and surely enough it did work well, and the product, in the form of coarse meal, was astonishingly good. Meanwhile, Dr. J. P. Robinson's man came from the doctor's farm with a two -horse wagon load of gradue and af- ter sawing a little wood by means of a buzz saw in the rear of the little build- ing, the grinzx1ng proceeded. again. "This th t I am going to show you next is pure y an invention of 'my own. Some of th older farmers about here laughed wh n I told. them what I was going to do,[but I have kept on, and it has worked dmirably. It is no more nor less than cooking the food before it goes to the clattle. On the floor above I have a stalls cutter, through which all the stalks arid straw are _run and cut into inch pieces. The feed is - then placed into this t ink, through which, in a coiled. manner. runs the steam escape - pipe from the 02 gine. This pipe is full of small holes,ihrough which the steam comes in oolitauti with the cut stalks. Fodder fixed in this way is completely eatereup by the cattle, and they are, with a likee Mixture of the meal, made to thrive first-rate." The General assisted at the grinding, and appeared never more happy and contented in his life than when seeing things moving off so easy., The exhibition of a fine lot of Leices- tershire lambs, which were rambling at will in the ,orchard, prdvided with a comfortable shed for shelter, and the pointing out of 'some fine work \--Olich Hal (his oldest son) had I done in the construction of a hennery, in reality completed the circuit but as we came around. towardsthe place of beginning, a large and exceedingly fine piece of wheat was noted and remarked upon, as well as the grading of the old muddy lane into a passable highway. An hour had. thus passed pleasantly away in observing a style Of farming that may well be imitated. "It must he but fun to farm, after this fashion ?" I ventured. " The ques, tion to be decided is, will you make any money thereby? You know that far- mers generally -claim that this book -farm- ing don't pay." "111 regard to that I am, I must .don - fess, somewhat in the dark myself as yet. I have been making a great many improvements on my farm that enhance its value, hist do not bring a direct re- turn; and: wlsether in the long run I shall make or lose, I cannot tell. The milk which the General's cows yield is disposed of to a wholesale deal- er at the station, who sends it to Cleve- land, manufactures into butter and cheese, or retails, as the market mayin- vite, Free frem the rough struggles of po- litical debate looking into the meek' face of his herd, or wandering back over his broad acres, he apparently feels at peace with all mankind and happy in the possession of a portion of the soil of nal other earth, • 'Shoemakin g. No other trade has undergone iuch a revolution by the application of ma- chinery as has that of shoemaking; Twenty yearsago every part of the shoe was made by hand. So great was the prejudice against machinery that a rival manufacturer had but to make it known that his conapetitor was using ma- chinery, to Crush his business. - This was caused partially by the fact that the machinery, being in a crude state, turned out inerior work, and partially by ignorant hostility. But invention followed. invention and improvement after improvement, until to -day there is but one part of a she that cannot he operated 1pon successfully y the m ach in e. That is lasing, or arranging the -up- per in shape over the last. Recently there have been invented machines cal- culated to perform this branch, but the work requires' sach minute inspection' and such deliCate htndling that none -of the inventions have accomplished their purpose. So successful ha e been the application of machinery to the trade that now in -many branches the machinery turns out a better, job than can be done by the hand. Certainly more leather is saved: The old. hand shoemaker is dying out. A few years ago hi S battered sign was found in near- ly every block, but now it is met seldom and far between: In Massachusetts, where more attention is paid to labor statistics than here, it was shown by the last report . of the Labor Bureau that the number of hand shoemakers had diminished in that State during the years from 1866 to 1878 to the ex- tent of 30,000. Of late years machine shoemaking has developed to a remarkable degree in Philadelphia. In the line of small shoos this city is now the head centre, both for number and quality manufac- tured. Eight years ago the number of large shoe establishments in- the city were about 16; to -day there are abont 14Q. The average amount of work turned out by these firms yearly amounts to an average of 48,000,000 pails of shoes. One or two factories in this city are manufacturing shoes at the rate of 2,000 pairs a day. In well regulated establishments the shoes are passed from one machine to the other as regu- larly as clock work. The work with the raw leather com- mences in two distinct departments. One is known as the stock room and the other as the cutting room. The former is where the heavy or sole leather is prepared, and the latter where the work commences on the up- per leather. In the stock room there are two extra large machines, worked something after the manner of trip -hammers, used for chOpping out- insoles and outsoles. By means of dies these soles are cut out of the side of the leather to the exact size of the shoe they are intended for. In the same room are several machines cut- ting out little lifts lin the shape of heels from pieces of leather too small for soles. These are put together and made ready to be nailed on the shoe, In the cut- ting room men cut the parts of the ,up- pers. These parts are placed in bun- dles and passedi into the fitting room, where a large 'number of girls, with steam -power sewing machines, stitch the parts together with. lightning -like rapidity. The uppers and stock are carried to the lasters' department in packages to mate. This room is generally a large one, and in it is located the principal ma- chinery of the shoia The lasters are arranged in circles around a small ma- chine which sews the sole to the upper. Then the shoes are made ready for trimming. The trimming machine is an in- genious apparatus for paring the sur- plus leather from the outer sole and preparing it for finishing. This work must be done carefully, to save the up- per from being cut by the trimming knife. Near by are two or more pon- derous machines that are called heel- ers. The heels that have been prepared in the stock room are brought here in boxes, and this machine drives them on to the shoe With one blow. A large shaver is attached to the heeler, and after each heel has been pounded. on, the shaver is wheeled. around. and in a second the heel is trimmed off, ready for inking. The shoes go now to ma- chines that polish or burnish up the heels and soles. . Several large sand- paper machines clean the bottoms of the shoes, and the finished shoes are paired and boxed for shipping. A shoe can be made completely in less than an hour by carrying it directly through the shop from one machine to another. At the present time machine shoemaking is very brisk, and the employes are re- ceiving higher wages than they have for years.-ReCord. "There is somethind peculiarly at- tractive in a horse.
