Some yearlings WHY THE FARM IS BETTER THAN TOWN. ( Progressive Fanner. ) ioung man, stick to your farm, and be not ashamed of your calling, but rather proud of it. It seems much more dig nified and independent to see a young man driving a good team hitched to a mower cutting down the red-crowned clover, or reap ing the golden grain, than meas uring cloth behind a counter in a dark room, deprived of the health-giv ing breezes. And then you can be your own boss, which is worth a great deal, and you can devel op an individuality and strength of character which will be a blessing in after-life. In this day of telephones, rural deliv eries, and automobiles, when distance is annihilated, thecoun try is the place to live. In the quiet of country life, cut off from the distractions of town, great thoughts which will out live monuments are born. Let no poet," says a prominent writer, "get himself born and raised in a capital, but rather in the country." In the solitude of the country man is more ob servant, more self contained, more ready to follow his in ceptions of new truths. Soli- GREKR -liREER.
