FARMING AS A BUSINESS There's been a whole iot of mushy Btuff written about agriculture—the community spirit, the bright side of the independence and nobili ■ ty of ianr.ing, the healthful out of • doors, prognessjvp farming, intense farminj, and the farm attractive. Many writers have attempted to meddle with the farmer's family how the wife and daughters should beautify the home, how the boys should git their diversion, how to en tertain on tire farm, and how the women folks should dress arid con-1 duct themselves. But no writer has ever had the nerve to play farming up as a money making enterprise, to set forth, its advantages over even the moat menial of all tne other callings or professions The.' never wuz a writer with im uginat) on,, enough to write glowingly on th> money and on faranig, and why? _r auae there hatn't none. J It seems to be ull right fer town boys to leave home and git into ull fcortb tf professions and all wrong for a country youth to strike out. 11 lanning was attractive in the sense t.iat other professions are, may be a lew town boys would light in the country. But as long as u felow can make more money at anything than he can by farming the fanm is goin to get Die hoi end cf it. Gooil stablized prices for farm pro ducts is the only salvation for the farm. The only way to make anything at tractive is to make it remunerative. The re's no other business or pro nfessioi that's as beset with as many discouragements as farming—uncer tain weather, off years, overcrowded market s, price manipulation, cholera, Holeproof wE /fasten/ 11 These summery days with novelty shoes and sport dresses in vogue - it requires a pretty nifty and sheer hose to blend in and i do your trim ankle any justice.

All other businesses except bill post ing, are under roof and heated and shaded, and lighted. 7 Late springs, and floods, and frosts and diseases never bother them, but - a farmer must alius set purty and not complain. If the season's perfect, and crop are big, and money's plentiful, anil the markets are right, and the cholera and boil wevjl dont show up, and the fanner's family stands nobly by him, he may mala.' fifteen or eighteen bun dred dollars'on the year. Kight now there's widespread and severe criticism on the farm bloc in Congiuss, but who kin name an; other interest that hasn't maintained a bloc in Congress for the past fift.v years ? Then too, on top of everything eh a farmer has to contend with, he i asked to believe tliat the tariff pro tects hun and makes liim prosperour • There's been too much written air too much spouted in Congress aboui farming by those who've never trie* it. _ Jim llastin's who sold his foundry anil bought a farm west of town la: fall wants to sell out, as the exercist is too violent.

SAYINGS AS OLD AS THE HILLS You recall them; do you believe them ? If you believe them, do you act thin? WasLe not, want not. Fortune favors the brave. It is never too late to mend. Do as you would be done by. A stitch in time save nine. Strike while the iron is hot. A tree is known by its fruit. Rome was not built in a day. Nothing venture, nothing have. Make hay while the sun shines. Ttinu and tide stay for no man. A man forewarned is forearmed. A small spark makes a great fire. The early bird catches the worm. A penny saved is a penny earned. Don't play the dog in the manger. An oak is not felled with one blow. Hell is paved with good intentions. A friend in need is a friend indeed. A fault confessed is half redressed. Pride goeth before a fall. Look before you leap. Take time by the forelock. Better be late than never. All is not gold that glitters. A miss is as good as a mile. Familiarity breeds contempt. Idleness is the root of all evil. As you sow, so shall you reap. Two heads are better than one. Prevention is better thn ctfre. As the bell is, so is the clapper. Let the cobbler stick to his last. - A rolling stone gathers no moss. Don't burn the candle at both ends. Procrastination is the thief of time. To err, is human; to forgive, divine. God helps those who help them selves. A fool tfnd his money are soon ed. Never make a mountain out of a mole hill. - I GOOD JUMBO SEED PEANUT*: for sale. W H liogeis.
