the books show for this. There is
no bank that ought to pay so well
as that under the barn, that is, if
you run it well and keep things
snug.
You are cashier and presi-

dent and directors, and the stock
can be made to divide more than

six per cent., and that ought to sat-
isfy any reasonable man. Make
deposits in the shape of a little dry
muck from time to time, a few
loads of stiff loam dug from the
sub-soil, and a few bushels of plas-

ter. They will save the drippings,
and roll up a surplus that will serve

for dividends. Some folks put in
a few pigs, and take pains to bait
them with a little shelled corn to
set them to work, and they will
Fine mix up things as if it were all for
fun. To be sure it is better for the
bank than it is for the pigs, but
they can stand it, though it is not
the best way to keep pigs for work.
It is the best time to trim grape
vines, and if you need a few more
fruit trees they can be set now.
Lay out to keep a year's stock of
wood on hand where it will always
be dry. Dry wood is cheaper than
green.
