MINOR FARM INDUSTRIES.
The attention which English farmers are now paying to their pig- tyeß, barnyards, and dovecotes Bhows that they are beginning to learn the lessons whioli the thrifty cultivators of Krance and Belgium have been teaching them for many years pant The " minor industries " of country life have long b en negleoted by us ; but the bad seasons of the past few yenrs have led our tenant-farmers to try whether money cannot be made m other ways than those to which hitherto thej have given most attention. Wheat, every body knows, is no longer a profitable crop, and even grazing i> bare'y remunerative at present prices. — Staiidard.
