The Huron Expositor, 1881-09-09, Page 6The City Farmer.
When formerly` a city man who had
made his 'pile" and as he drove
'trough the country and became &s-
atiated with the beauty of the growing
erops and things in general, would make
ap his mind to try his hand at so pleas-
ant a business—his actions were care-
fully watched by`the old farmers and
bis many. bkinders laughed at. He was
not satisfied to have things after the
fashion of the getieral farmet ; he must
, have them all much nicer and better,
and then he couldn't help but succeed.
He bought imported cattle,sheep,swine,
chickens and what not, the finest and
most expensive implements and farm
machinery, some of which had scarcely
been read of by agriculturists generally.
He hauled his manure from the citY by
scores of loads; guano was applied pro-
fusely and everything done on a scale
that threw all his neighbors entirely in
the shade. When they protested against
a great deal of this neeless expenditure
and waste ef labor, he would reply that
he had his Own ideas about mattersand
things, and as he thought they were an
improvemeat on the old fogyisnes of the
day, he worild try what he could do,
having no doubt ef his entire success,
and others Wouldbe glad to follow him;
but no success fol owed, at least, not in
• the shape or to Ithe exteat expected.
The next year waa still less satisfactory,
as several of his fine cattle died from
over feeding. The following year the
fly got into his wheat so as to leave not
more than one stalk standing where
there ought to be twenty. The worms
• destroyed his app es. His potatoes rot-
ted. Some roving, worthless dogs killed
or mangled twenty of his Sonthdown
sheep in a single night. The lightning
burnt down his ba n. Hence, at the end
of five years he found that there was
neither pleasure nor profit in farming—
in fact, he was quite sure of it. His
family complainei, too, of being away
from the city, fro their friends from
parties, operas an theatres, and were
terribly tired, any ow, of the country.
Papa, therefore, b eked by his family,
who had come out with such eagerness*
into the pure atm sphere of the hills
and valleys, sold a t everything at half
its value—houses, lands, stock, crops,
household goods nd everything else,
root and branch, 1 sing from $15,000 to
$20,000, and went lack from whence he
came, a wiser, if t ot a richer man.—

Capital Far ming. -
Were business in n to start in busi-
ness on the plan that thousands of far-
mers adopt, more o them would come
to grief at an early day than is now the
case. They genera ly count the cost in
advance, and aim to have sufficient
capital on haad, or accessible, so that
necessary outlays shall be pronaptly
met, and their ability guaranteed for
tiding over a period, of dull times or
stringency. The true man of business
does not want his customers, creditors,
or acquaintances to even suspect that
his financial resources are at all lack-
ing to carry mat hi plans. He knows
that a reputation fo prompt payments
iS all important to standing with both
creditors and custo ers; and that with-
out a standing the path to success will
be ten Mares more difficult. He may
limit his field of ant rprise as much as
he pleases, but he nuat be able to do
what he agree e to d or tries to do with
promptness arid dis atoh.
Tile great need of the average farmer
is to be more b siness-like in his
methods. He sho Id know all about
profit and lots. Tr e, he can not al-
ways demonstrate e actly the oott of a
bushel of corn, a qu rt of beans or the
board of a sucking p g, but he can at
least know what his aggregate expenses
are per year, and hi annual income.
Yet tens of tlaonsanda do not know even
this, because it is "to much trouble to
keep accounts." Th :y seem to take no
interest or pride 1 mastering such
facts. They lack ti e business -quality
of mental applicatio , and of course
their farming, while it may support
them, is of the stand till order, unenter-
prising, and teaches o lesson that in-
cites other farmers to improve.
Then, again, other thousands embark
in the business blindly. They can
• work, but they have w conception that
farming is much mon than mere work
and routine. They s art without capi-
tal, or at least none i hand, and under
a load of debt. The tools and stock
put upon the farm ar inferior, and do
very- poor work. vestmeo s that
would pay well, sue. as purchases of
manure, drainage of heavy soils, the
clearing up promptl of swamps or f
other land which ini.„Lit be reclaimed,
must be neglected or postponed. Such —
men cannot be persua ed that time is to th
money in their busine s, or that they sever
cannot afford to.use helf worn out and
inefficient tools and implements. Their
necessities for ineetieg interest, taxes
and other expenses li erally force them
to sell their crops iften at ruinous
• prices to sharpers who know or suspect
the pressure under which they live. w ic
Their purchases must all be made at horse
retail and at high rat s, instead of at The s
wholesale and at to *lowest rates.
Such a man can do lit le or nothing to
advance farming or ho o or it; he can do
nothing to aid local e terprises ; he has
nothing for books, p pers, society, or
intellectual culture; hs family is neg-
lected, and has no ch: nee to grow in
• social standing, and a ort of dry rot
, generally pervades the remises. and g
ings should be beautiful and tastefal,
because a slight expenditure and some
care and taste will give him rural herr-
ties denied. to the city man, wh oh
will cost the latter many thousands in
the form of a country seat. And to do
all this requires some capital.
But if a man wants to be a farneer
and hasn't the capital to conduct his
business witlathe energy and foresight
of a well-trained business man, what iis
he to do? This is the question that
some will ask. Several suggeations are
in order. What do other people do
who wish to engage in business and are
without the necessary means? They
generally don't do it, postpone it for
better times, or try something t else. l'ett.
man's. fancied wants and wishes are
not always the true guides to follow.
If really possessed of the sterling quali-
ties which fit admirably for success in f a
certain calling, theft will pretty oeir-
tainly be exhibited in such a way in
subordinate positiens as to attract ap-
preciable attention and suggest aid fr lee
friends. A man who would -rise m
be patient.
Money may not pour in rapidly to
the hired man—at least it never has
yet—but money is not all the capital
required. The grace of patience with
skill, an. inquiring spirit, and an earnest
desire to find better methods than the
old ones, are all important. There
should be, and must 1)e for the higheet
• success, an ambition excel in fann-
ing, and not only to lake money by it,
but to do everything i a way to favor-
ably contrast with practices that obta n

But to attempt farming witho t
any of this preparatory discipline, a d
with but a trifle of money, is really
hard road to travel. Besides the •hie -
nen of debt and of, constant self-deni
in habits of living, there is the mortifir
cation of being obliged to conduct farming
operations in a slipshod or waatef

ments. Habits are acquired that din
to parents and children through after
years, and thus aid -to keep down the
