Farmer or Merchant

Seventeen years since the writer took
from situation as porter and salesman
In village grocery a young man ofprom-
ise, of the age of nineteen years, who had
sagacity sufficient to be able to compare
the chances of success In merchandising
and In agriculture, and see that the latter
presented much the greater promise. He
commenced as farm laborer, at the COM
mon wages Of farm hand, and made his
employers interest his interest, spent his
evenings in reading agricultural journals,
and other reading devoted to the art to
which he had determined to devote his
life. He remained three years, and had
his salary annually increased, which he
well earned, when he went away to the
State of Georgia, to take charge of large
plantation, In which situation he remain
ed but few years, when he purchased
and stocked fine farm of several hun
dred acres, on which he still lives, and
lives as only the farmer out Of debt can.
The firm he left In the grocery business
have since failed, and one of them has
failed twice. What contrast!
How many young men have the same
opportunity to-day, and how happy would
| 1t be for them, If they would only em-
brace 1t.
The idea Is delusive one that It Is
more respectable, and the chances of sue
cess are greater to the young man to take
the position of porter or lackey In mer-
camille house in the city, with hope of be-
coming salesman, or book-keeper, and
finally a merchant, instead Of taking a
situation rs a farm hand, where, with the
same industry and application that would
secure only living In the former he
might In n few years become competent
to take charge of large and productive
farm, which he could take on shares with.
out capital, and with great degree Of
certainty he could In ten or fifteen years,
save enough to stock fair farm, and
make a payment that would number him
among the most enviablc class Of men,
known rs lords OF the soil.
Ifthe youth reared In the country could
only see behind the tinsel curtain that
conceal so much gcntccl misery In the
city. he would shun It as he would vi
per, and would return to the land OF his
nativity, with the firm resolution to make
the country his place of abode, and field
of labor for life.
II the writer with his experience with
life In the "country which God made'
and the city, that work Of man, had a
dozen sons to locate In business, he would
certainly settle twelve of them on farm,
and the other one too, If 1t were a bakers
dozen. Not one of them should come to
the city by his consent, to take the one In
one hundred chances of success there Of
fered.- GnmantoVn Telegraph.
