Where = hall the :'' Farm Hand
I k Live ?
There hats been some interesting d
mission by our correspondents of t
" hired man question," especially as
whether ornot he shall be made one
the farmer's: family.t seems to us tb
a satisfactory solution of the question
hindered by a failure on either side
recognizethe fact that the circumstan
vary so greatly that no positive anew: r,
-applicable to all cases, can be given ; a d
also by the assumption that those w o
suggest tha it is not best to mako fa
laborers m inhere of the family, do : of
caste, andbecause they set themselv:s
up as beton ing to a higher grade, of b
ings than are those a ployed by the e+ .

are not such as will .ted to injure thei
morals or 'manners ; th t his home she
be as truly a home as ssible. The
duties may conflict. hat is best f
the laborer may not be best for the fa
ily. In cities the pr oticta solution
the question is almost invariably in on
way.. The einplover a pects to have hi

he does not make hi. 'special business
Those employed abou the house, as
rule, form nopart of he family, so fa
as companionship is oncerned. Tha
this course often lead to unhappiness
loneliness, and dissipat e's, and crime o
the part of the employed is certainl
. true. That a general a option of a di'
. crena plan is impract cable is squall
tr:�e. In the ideal` ho a there are n •
boarders. The _bestexpression of th
idea of a family is that in which fathe
and mother and children, with perhap
the grand -parents, are a only members.
These, baund together y the laws of Gor
and man, live alone and r their own roof.
This is the ideal. Th introduction of
a stranger into the home circle 'nay work
good or it may work ha m. If a, farmer
chooses to so arrange tl at at his table,
and during the evenin hours he shall
have only his wife a d children with
him, surely it does no follow that he
feels himself 'superior to those employed
by him.. To take a .. more " practical "
view of the case, it should be borne in
mind that that average' farmer's wife has
enough to do in caring for her own fam-
ily, and discharging he many duties
which cannot be avoid - s .., To introduce
into the family one, two or a half dozen
men, adds largely to he care and oftetf
to her labor. [In a large number of cases.
there is again eve way by the
employing of married a en as laborers,
and furnishing them a h me on the farm.
It is an advantage to h ve experienced
help on the faun ; to hav a man who has
learned the wishes of t o employer and
something of he system pursued on the
farm, and who has, as fa as may be, a
personal inte est - in th : work. To be
poor is no crii e : to wor : is no disgrace.
On a large farad there is often need of a
man of so mu intellig ce and ability
than he ought receive wages as much
as, or more t n he coul probably make
as a renter or by running in -debt for a
farm of his owl]. If the opportunity to
have a home given in uch a case is it
not better the that ,on y a single man
shall have sun _ a positio : , and that mar- 1
riage and a ho a should be out of the i
question for a arm labor. r ? There are
many eases w re all the circumstances
make [it best that the borer should
board in . his a ployer's: amily. Many
farmers'need t employ h :red labor only
daring a few m nths of t e year, or need
only ia'boy mos of whos duties are di.
rectly about t e house. In such cases
naturally the help " would- board with
the farmer, and his comfort should be
carefully looked after, an in such cases
it is just as pros er for the armer to satis-
fy himself that morally a d physically
the applicant.plicant fo work m • ets his ideas
as of his ability and willin nese to work.
If he prefers th t his children . shall not
hear oaths, or b come accustomed to the
use of tobacco, it is clearly his right to
see that one coming into his family ac.
cords : with his views. On the ether
hand, : there are very many eases it/ which
the comfortand convenience of both
parties would be! advanced if the prac-
tice of having married hired laborers live
on the farm and board the ether laborers
were much more common than it now is.

Clear tip the Ru bish.
When the used up and at , andoned im-
plements and articles, and he fag ends
of every thingrequircd about the farmer's
premises are left to lieabout, occupying
the ground year after year, wherever
they happened tcl be left last, it is im-
possible to keep such premises free of
burdocks and other weeds. There is no
excuse for these nuisances a : out the farm
building, of the" ccumulat d Lumber of
a thousand yea s" occup ing ground
which should be ade the dost sightly
and productive of the farm It is, no
doubt, unprofltabl also in every instance.
I will mention only one. A man, not
having any wood lot on hie farm, and
buying his firewood] by the c rd, sold bis
premises, and talc the parch ser, among
other things, that a had his man work
two days to cuts d carry o the bur-
docks from the house lot, o that he
could turn his .sheep into it. The new.
comer found firewood enough by clear -
int; up the grounds of the re sins of old
wagons arid sheds, haystacks a d timbers,
old cherry trees that were breeding
worms, and from the dilapidated fences
and outbuildings, for a family to use for
half a dozen years.; And after clearing
this ground he found it theichest and
best on the farm. 'l,'ho best] thing one
can do with worn out implements is to
put the wood of them in the wood} shed
for fuel, and the old iron into the Work-
shop to repair other tools with. But for
the rubbish that is constantly coming to
hand about every farm hour , I would
have three places where I wo ld dispose
of every thing of the kind. An out-of-
the-way corner, between the shed and
the barn, .will receive all broke crockery
and glass -ware, t to " old tin nd sheet
iron, and all castaways. Ever thing of
wood, little- or big, if sound enough goes
to the wood pile, but if decaying must
go to the compost heap in the barnyard
with all the refuse from the garden,from
cleaning up the yards, theeller, the
wood -shed, barn floor sweepings, the
goal ashes, frozen potatoes, and all such
