a Christian weekly lays it down as
a rule, in long article, that nothing
funny should be put in newspaper.
1t doesn't seem to follow the rule,
however. The long article created a
broad grin all over the country, and
aroused a widespread inquiry as to
whether its writer wasa fool on pur-
pose or merely by accident.

{ Nr~~N.N~1
The American! farmer, in all his
planning, aud all his building, has
never made provision for life. lle
has only considered the means OF get
ting living Outside Of lhis--every
thing relating TO society aud culture
has been steadily ignored. He gives
bis children the advantage OF schools,
not recognizing the fact that these
very advantages call into lite new
set Of social wants. A bright, we'll
educated family, in a lonely farm.
house, is very diiierent material from
. family brought up In ignorance. An
American farmers children, who have
had few terms at u ciKhboring
academy, resemble in no degree the
European peasant. They come home
with new ideas and new wants and ii
there ia no provision made for these
new wants, and they find no opportu-
mites for their rsatisfaction,t they will be
ready on reaching their majority, To
fly the farm h0use and eeck the city.
Ii the American farmer wishes TO
keep his children near him, he must
learn the difference between living
and getting . iiviag; and We mistake
him Aad his grade OF culture altogeth.

We answer by making Agricultural
