h [ eC y e h por: ols moal‘ s f 9 e e l I o nCms Mess 3 P A high scho 1 course for a year or two, with particalar stress laid. on chemistry, botany and other practical sciences, followed by a two or three year course at some agricultural colâ€" lege, should give the lad, now a young man, a good, sound, English, scientific and practical educa ion, which, while cu‘tivating and broadening the mind, will not make him afraid of any or ‘all work connected with the farm. Such are the kind of farmers we need toâ€"day, if we are to be a successful nation. Many would be inclined to say, "You give a boy such an education as that and he will leave the farm." If a perâ€" son is in earnest about farming, an edâ€" ucation will never lead him from it Some will ask, why does education lead so many farmers‘ sons from the farm ? Tt is lack of love for the farm, its surâ€" roundings and work. Why this lack of love for farming ? Tt has been said ‘by some one that the firsb thing people do when they come into the world is to grumble. There are a gooi many farmers who seem to be like thisâ€"born grumblers. ‘This leads to discontent; and soon the son tires of acting in the capacity of hired man, with this differâ€" ence that the boy often gets no wages. He reasous that farming doesn‘t pay, and as a matter of course looks for soms other employment more remunerâ€" ative. You might as well fexpect fire to burn under water, as that a love for farming would be developed in such anlatmosphere of discontent and faultâ€" finding and ‘complaint. Again, the defective manner in which farming opâ€" erations are often conducted, unnecesâ€" sarily tiring the body and giving no time for mental thought and improveâ€" ment, is a great influence. Stop cGQJ» plaining about the degraded nature of work. The lawyer, dotor, teacher, preacher, and so on, all work, and work hard if they succeed ; and so must the farmer, but they must adopt a better system. â€"If the farmers themâ€" selves who think meaaly of their callâ€" ing, and teach the world to rate it low. "Only a farmer !‘ "Only a hayseed !‘ are expressions often heard, principalâ€" ly beeause they do not show the world they are motive power. If weas farmâ€" ers were possessed of more ambition, we would aim higher, plan better, and be more successful. _ As a natural conâ€" sequence a love of farming would be developed in the boys, and consequentâ€" ly no fear need be entertained that a thorough education will induce them to leave the farm. A careful study of the different sysâ€" tems of dairying will furnish examples of both example and failure. In the same neighborhood are two farms as nearly alike in quality of soil as you will generally find. Twentyâ€"five years ugo they each kept twelve cows and a team. â€" One owner kept his cows doing nothing during the winter except manuâ€" facturing the hayâ€"mow into manure, which was thrown out under the eaves of the barn, the liquid being gotten rid of by boring auger holes through the floor, which stood up some three feet from the ground, so as to give free cirâ€" culation of air underneath. The pigâ€" pen was located over the brook, so that any accumulation from it would be washed away, and all kept clean. No fertilizer was ever purchased, notwithâ€" standing a good deal of grain was grown on hill lots, where it was dithiâ€" cult to get barn manureâ€"in fact, there was little manure for any place, toâ€"day How shall they be mentally, moralâ€" ly and physically educated and trained, that they may leave the work. of the farm ? Mentally,they need opportuniâ€" ties of an education much the same as other boys and girls. Our rural schools answer the purpose as far as they go ; these with an opportunity of reading good books from a wellâ€"stocked library, will, if rightly encouraged,; give a deâ€" sire to read, study, learn and talk. A boy or girl having a desire for these four things has at least oneâ€"half of an education, for by perseverance the reâ€" maining portion will follow as a superâ€" structure on a firm foundation. . From this point I intend to notice the boys more particularly, as the girls invariâ€" ably wish to become the partner of some business man in the town or city There is an existing feeling that a farâ€" mer does not need? an education. It has been truly said "there is no proâ€" fession which for its successful practice requites a better stored mind than agâ€" riculture, and none in which the actuâ€" al ignorance is greater ;" yet when it is to be decided that a boy is to be a farmer, the same day it is decided to take him fron. school. It may be all right to take the boy from school for a year or two, still it should only be tem:â€" porary. _ J. D. Smith writes the Country Genâ€" tleman the following sketch from real life: 7 I may say, perhaps the most negiectâ€" ed crop about the farm is the crop of boys and girls. On no other crop does the present and future success of farmâ€" ing depend as much as this one. A great part of the present lapour on farms is being performed by the boys and girls, aod soon they will be the tfarmers and farmers‘ wives. The! sue cessful educat on of this crop is one of the most important questions of the day. Profitable and Unprofitable Dairying. Boys and Gipls on the Farm. BY G. .R. BRADLEY The lines on no two human hands are exactly alike. The fact is utilized in China in an interesting way. When a ‘traveller desires a passport, the valm of his hand is covered with fine oil plant ard an impression is taken on thin, damp paper. This paper, officialâ€" ly signed, is his passport. ‘Shure,‘ says Pat, I wants to go home." ‘But you have got fourteen days.‘ ‘‘Thrue for yez, but he didn‘t say anyâ€" thing about the noights.‘ On the night after being in his cell all day, he began knocking on the door. . The warder, thinking that someâ€" thing was wrong, asked what it was. Woman Live Longer Than Men. The well known fact that women live longer than men is illustrated as follows: The excess of the females of all ages over males of all ages in Eng: lind and Wales is only about 3} per cent. (in round numbers 15,000,000 minus 50,000 to 14,000,000 plus 50â€" 000.) But when we begin to compare women over 60 with men over 60 the female majority becomes much greater, and when we once pass 85 the old men are nowhere. The female inonogenarâ€" ians nearly double the male; there are 854 women over 95 to only 354 men, and 104 gammer to 42 gaffers who own to a century.â€"| Westminister Gazette. "Not much," returned the sandyâ€" haired youth, as a convulsive shiver ran down his spine. "If you want me you‘ll baxe to make a skip of it. I know yer pa too well t@@®#ck him for yer hand. He‘d make an .agel of me in less‘n four minutes if 1 ever was foolish enough to try it so." In a certain church in Ireland a young priest was detailed to preach. The occasion was his first apperrance, and he took for his text: "The Feeding of the Multitude." An old Irishman said; "That‘s no miracle; begortra, I could do that myâ€" self," which the priest overheard. The next Sunday the priest announâ€" ced the same text, but he had it right this time. He said: "And they fed ten thousand people on ten loaves of bread and ten fishes." / He waited a second and ‘leaned over the pulpit and said: "And could you do that, Mr. Murphy ?" _ _ "And sure, your reverence, I could do it with what was left over from last Sunday."â€"[Tit Bits.] He Knew Her Pa Too Well. ©Yes, James," said the fair young gir), of "course you may have me. And now you‘d better go and tell pa all about it." Fourtcen Days. Pat, having assaulted the police, re ceived fourteen days. He said: "And they fed ten people with ten thousand loaves of bread and ten thousand fishes." Murphy replied: "And sure, your reâ€" verence, I could." ’ Visitorâ€"‘"So your brother is taking lessons on the violin.. Is he making progress !" Little girlâ€"‘"Yes‘m; he‘s got so now. we can tell;: whethor he is tuning or playing." ; During the latter:â€"part of the sevenâ€" teenth century pikeswere superseded by the bayonet, and all defensive armâ€" or for the infantry was abandoned,. How is it with the neighboring farm? Just the opposite in everything has been obtained. Cows woere kept at work ten montbs in the year; warm stables were provided where cows stood upon the ground so no cold air could come under them; gutters were built in which all excrement, both solid and liquid, was saved, by the use of plenty of absorbing material, and all drawn and spread upon the land as fast as made. The pigâ€"pens . were provided wi h tight floors sloping toward the m»nare vat, into which was carted an abundance of anything that could be obtained, such as sods, weeds from fence corners, damaged strawâ€"in short anything that would absorb and help to keep the porkers clean. The manure from the horse stabie was nmot thrown out in a pile to become fireâ€"fangei and worthless, but used in the cow stable or piggery, to absorb liquids. Upon this f rm have been erected large barns aad comfortable out buildings;a modern dwelling stands in the place of the old one; instead of blackberry briers and weeds that used to abound, no berries can be found outside the pateh of cultiâ€" vated ones, and clean fields are seon. Instead of twelve cows producing 125 pounds of butter each, there are forty cows with a yie‘d of 250 pounds each. Let no one say this is a fancy sketch. for it is but ons of a number of instâ€" ances from life that could be given. To sum it up, success in any calling means the bettering of existing condiâ€" tions, the lifting of those about us to a higher plane, and so to perform and complete the work given us to do, that finally of us it may be said, "well done." «"And how could you do it ?‘ saia the priest, _ The world‘scoal mines employ 1,500,â€" 000 men, _ . the farm is only able to keep ten cons and a team, pastures are barren, buildâ€" ings present a tumbling down appear ance, and the children look upon the farm as a good place from which to get away.
