The Farmer and the Currency, j
As a rule the non producing
world cares less about the happi
ness or prosperity of our labor
ing and agricultural population
than the fanner cares about his!
horses and oxen.
The farmer likes to see his
team fat and strong because they
can the better draw liis plows and
wagons; but the humane farmer
feels also for the comfort of his
dumb animals, for he is with them
a great deal and does not like to
see them suffer.
On the contrary the bond-hold
er and the banker see but little of
the farmer, and care less. It is
for the interest of the capitalist
that money should be scarce aud
he is doing ail he can to make it
so permanently; because ms
money will go so much farther.
No matter how many merchants
may break, or how much mort
gaged property may sell for a
fourth of its former value.
Until the producing classes can
.ake things into their own hands, j
[a thing which is perhaps a long;
way off) they will be compelled to j
ive very economically and a large
•hare of their earnings go to non
iroduccrs.
Large crops will not make
noney plenty for capital controls
jriees and farmers in debt can '
inrdly extricate themselves by j
•aising cotton at six or eight j
•cuts, or corn at twenty-five cents. '
,et everybody then look at things
ust as they arc; pay and com
irornise debts as best we can and
ill hands take a fresh start. Then
he writer believes that he could '
I I
av off a plan whereby poor folks
night “get along,” however lothe
le might be to follow it out him- (
elf. Docters are not fond of their
>wn prescriptions you know,
fere it is—quit the use of all. j
tinds of food and drinks which |
contain little or no nutriment, j
iuch as whiskey, wine, coffee, tea, j
icpper and all the various spices,!
:tc., etc. Then banish tobacco J
n all its hateful forms. These.!
rill be good beginnings, then let |1
is buy no “store-goods” which *
an possibly be dispensed with or 1
nade at home, and let us 1
radc for bai ter, exchanging one 1
:ind of property for another, ’
.ml never promise money for any- (
hiug. In this way we shall need |'
nit little currency. Our best i(
fiends, the blacksmith, carpenter,
ragoii-maker and other mechanics 1
rill want some produce and we f
an pay most of our debts in *
'truck and trade.” The doctor ‘
oo, (God bless him and the min- 1
-.ter) will have to eat and take j ^
lis pay in trade. As sensible |
non never go t« law, the lawyers ,
'tin go to farming and join the1,
Grange or do worse. Taxes must )
>c paid in scrip or currency, and J.
here are a few articles of prime ! |
lecessity such as salt and iron, j |
vhich will demand a few dollars, j.
['hen practice the strictest econ- j |
miy in everything and altho’ we ,
nay live in a rather rude man- |
_ f.:„:i:.i ..
re comparatively independent. |
Seriously, it is impossible for the ]
armer to live as he would like ,
tnd as he really deserves to live ,
inder the present condition of
iffairs, and if “contraction” is to
•ontinue we shall be* compelled by
:ruel necessity to get along some- j
low without money. T.
Intoxicating music—“Ale to the :

Discoursing sweet music—blow- ,

eugtli of a book agent. ]
A number seven hat will just t
it a St. Louis mosquito bite. j
The new German greenbacks i
ire called Reischskuiscnchciuc. j

A harder subject to deal with (
ban even an old deck of cards, is 1
man who don’t advertise. 1
Young ladies profess to be '
Ireadfully afraid of a pistol, and |
et they do not want it to go off. !
Somebody advertises for a tna ^

Printers’ pi is very indigestible, 1

at her see some one else dispose l
’f it than himself. t
Take the Papers.
Why don’t you take the papers ?
They’re the life of my delight;
Except about election time.
And then 1 read for spite.
Subscribe, yon cannot lose a cent—
Why should you be afraid?
For cash thus paid is money lent
On Interest fourfold paid.
Go, then, and take the paper,
And pay to-day, nor pay delay,
And my word it is inferred.
Yoti’il live till youjarcgray.
An old newspaper friend of mine,
While dying with a cough,
Desired to hear the latest news,
While he was dying off.
I took the paper and I read
Of some new pills in force,
He bought a box—and is lie dead?
No 1—hearty as a horse.
I knew a printer’s debtor once,
Backed with a shocking fever,
Who swore to pay her bebt next day.
If her distress would leave her.
Next morningrfhe was at her work,
Divested of her pain,
But she forgot to pay her debt,
'Till taken down again.
“Here, Jessie, take these silvet
wheels,
And pay the printer now !”
She slept, and slept, and then awoke-.
With health upon her brow.
I knew two men, as much alike
As e'r you see two stumps,
And no phrenologist could flud
A difference in their bumps.
One takes a paper, and ids life
Is happier than a king’s;
llis children all can read and write,
And talk of men and tilings.
rhe other took no paper, and
While strolling through the wood,
A tree fell down, broke his crown
And killed him “very good.”
[lad he been reading of the news,
At home like neighbor Jim,
['ll bet a cent that accident
Would not have happened him.
Why don’t you take the papers?
Nor from*the printer sneak,
Because yon borrow- from his boy
A paper every week.
For he who takes the papers,
And pars Ids bill when due,
Jan live in peace with God and man,
And with the printer loo.
