DON'T LEAVE THE FARM.

Come, boys, have something to tell you,
Come near; | would whisper it low
You are thinking Of leaving the homestead
Don't be in hurry to go
The city has many attractions,
But think of the vices and sins;
When once in the vortex of fashion,
How soon the course downward begins
You talk of the mines of Australia
They're wealthy in gold without doubt,
But ah there is gold on the farm, boys,
If you'll only shovel 1t out.
The mercantile trade is hazard,
The goods are first high and then low
Better risk the old farm awhile longer
Don't be in hurry to go.
The great busy West has inducements,
And SO has the busiest mart,
But wealth is not made in a day, boys
Don't be in hurry to start
The bankers and brokers are wealthy;
They take in their thousands or So
All think of the frauds and deceptions-
Don't be in hurry to go.
The farm is the safest and snrest,
The orchards are loaded to-day;
You are as free as the air of the ountains,
And monarchs of all you survey.
Better stay on the farm awhile longer,
Though profits come in rather slow;
Remember, you've nothing 10 risk, boys
Don't be IN hurry to go.
