Hoot Horticulture.

After all, dear reader, money is not the sole factor in the best business; cash certainly is not a curse, but a custom; money is a necessity, but the necessity is a curse and a blight on the fair flower of freedom. True, money is a mere medium of exchange, but it is not the happy medium. Banks bulge with bullion, the wheels of industry revolve on the milled circumference of coin, and “profit” is the prophet of prosperity; but money is merely a morbific morbidity of man, and not a normality of Nature. Had money been earmarked as one of the original sins it doubtless would fructify in the field and “hoot” horticulture would prove the primary pastime of Cambria. But the history of humanity favours the finding that money is revolutionary rather than evolutionary; that cash is a rash on the hide of humanity, and finance a fever productive of total blindness to the gifts of Nature.
