Farming An Hon- amaUIa DnmnAnn iiiiii mil ' w. w w Dear Editor: I come once again asking your indulgence. I notice, that & topics are being discussed, all improvements and enterprises of all kinds are encouraged, but we hear very little said in regard to farm education and the farmer's interest As I am a farmer myself I wish to express a few sentiments along that line. ; However, it is with relnctance that I resort to my pen to do so. Undoubtedly the opportunities fpr the right -sort of -men in agriculture, as a permanent vocation, were never more attractive than at present. There never has beiMi, in my opinion, a greater Chance for actual attainment for making a name and place in this old world than at this age. We should bear in mind that we have but oiie life to live and but one cliancp to accomplish a thing and it i vriy iiupoiiant that we' should be awakt mu. I ready for the possibilities of life, lhe world takes but little interest in the oum' man who does not take any interest i njniM'lf, and can't do something that the w -rid wants him to do. To be wide awake uUmus mon th-in a fir-i class college ed ucation for if he is rightly aroused he will g t tue education, but if he is asleep tht e.iuctti n will do him -no possible good. Nj advocate has ever maintained that mere study ol books on agriculture, will tit a man for farmii.gFar from it. V e are aware that nothing cabxtake the place of the apprenticeship in everyNIepart ment of farm work and that no amount ot theoretical or even practical knowledge of ihe minutest details can attain success without good management and constant exercise, of industry in that business. Ol course I do not mean to leave the impression that I am uot iu favor of edu cation, for every man has as much right to kill himself as to Uvea useless liie .Neith er piety, virtue nor liberty can long flour ish in a community where the education of youths are neglected. I will say just here it would be eli for the farmers to adhere to their calling more closely, and adjust themselves quickly to present con ditions. To do that he must see clearly and think straight. But the young farmer is reputed to be unbusinesslike green and gullible by a great many i city people. This is because he is ignorant of some of those things with which city people are most familiar, not because he is absolute ly ignorant. It is true that some farmers are unbusinesslike in their methods. Too few of them keep such books of accounts, that they may have the accurate knowledge of their business that every man should have. But the average farm er is no more unbusmess-tike than the average city man. The farmer has reputation for lack of business sagacity and contempt for business rules as com pared to the city man, because the com parison is made by the city people and the banker or successful merchant is put against the most unbusiness like farmer. The farmer's reputation for 'gullibility and vardancy rests upon no fairer found hction. Because the young farmer is ignorant of a few things with which the city man is very familiar in some cases, the city man concludes that the farmer is green and unsophisticated, when the truth is the city man is ignorant of equally as many things with which the farmer is well ac quainted, If I mistake not seventeen of URGES ALL TO MARRY.: ' ' -- . .
