Note (1) — APPENDIX.

Note 1.—Yes, that is the word—good luck—it is all good luck. It is astonishing how many farmers there are in this country who will stand with their hands in their breeches pockets, fumbling idle dollars, while a neighbor expends his for guano, and produces a fine crop of wheat upon an old worn out buckwheat field; at which they stare in stupid wonder at the good luck of the thing.
What a pity it had not been the good luck of such men to have been born with common sense enough to profit themselves by their neighbors good luck.
