Why Farmer Hoys Should Get an i F.diirat inn. I Progressive Farmer. | Some of us to think that if our boy is going to follow farming till his life it is not. worth the trouble and expense of his getting very much learning. Rut it he expresses a de fc’ro to become a lawyer or doctor, we make every possible sacrifice and so docs the hoy. He wants to be 'thor oughly familiar with his profession and that is right. Farming is also a profession, the one that all the world is dependent on for food and clothing. 'This makes it the most important one there is. Why then should ho not get prepara tion? He should know how to feed and take care of the dear old mother earth so as to got tho host return, how to feed and cultivate his plants, howl to fight plant -enemies, for they are many. Ho must fear if fc-ow to buy and sell wisely, to be partner with the city's business men instead of just going on in a haphazard way unnam ed. getting cheated perhaps and thinking tlie so-called ‘‘Big Man” has got. him. Let us encourage our hoys, one and all. to attend school and get prepared for their calling. To know it better will ho to like it better ano mere v.ill not be so much raving for city life. And. as for us who have missed this training, let us take time tie • ead Tlv? Progressive Farmer and Wtier good literature. We will be better citizens for it. Man Hanged in Georgia.
