FARMER WHITE.

You may envy the Joys o. the farmer.
An fancy his free. easy life;
You may sit at his bOuntlful table,
An praise his industrious wife
Ell you worked in the woods in the winter.
Or follered the furrer all day,
With a team O. unruly young oxen,
An feet heavy loaded with clay,
Ell you held the old plow-I'npa thinkin'
You'd sing in a different way.
You may talk o. the solden-eyed daisies,
An lilies that wear sech charm,
But If ittyives me a heap o. hard labor
To keep lem from spIlin' my farm;
You may pirtur' the beautiful sunsets,
An landscapes so full o. repose,
But 1 never get time to look at 'em,
Except when 1t rains or it SHOWS;
You may sing o. the soug-birds o summer,
I'll tend t1ithe hawks an the crows.
You may long fur the lot o. the farmer.
An dwell on the pleasur's o. toll;
But the good things we hev on our table
All hev to be dug from tue soil;
An our beautiful, bright, yaller butter.
Perhaps you may never have learned,
Makes a heap o. hard work for the wimmen.
II hez to be cheerfuly cuurned;
An the cheeses. so plump in our panty,
All hey to be lifted an turned
When home from the hay field in summer
With stars gleamin' over my head,
When milk by the light o. my lantern,
An YEARLY crawl into bed.
When l think g the work o. the morrow,
An worry tor fear it might rain
When hear the load peal o the thunder,
An wife, she begins to complain,
Then | feel pZ if life WAS 4 burden
With leetle 10 hope Tor or gain.
But the corn must be planted in spring time,
The weeds must be KEEP from the ground,
The hay must be cut in the summer,
The wheat must be Graded an bound;
Fur sc are never out o employ ment,
Except when we lie in our bed,
For the wood must be hauled in the winter,
An patiently piled IN the shed,
While the grain must be took to the market,
The stock must be watered an fed.
You may envy the joys o. the farmer,
Who works like a slave for his bread,
Or, maybe to pay off a mortgage
That hangs like a shade DER his head.
You may sit in the shade o. the orchard
Nor think o. his wants or his needs.
You may gaze at his meadows and cornfelds,
An long fur the life that he leads,
But there's leetle o comfort or pleasure
In fightin' the bugs an the weeds.
But the farmer depends upon only
The thinEs that lie earns by his toll,
An the leete he gains is got honest,
BY turniu' and tilln' the SOIL.
When his last crop is toted to market,
With conscience all spotless and clear,
He may leave the old farm house forever,
To dwell in "a hoier sphere;
An the crown that he wears may be brighter
Because U his simple life here.

REMARKS.
Very truly yours,
RICHARDSON RICHARDS

This letter, as will be observed from its
one of the kind which will keep without
harm, and as it treated on a matter of
which we have had something to say before
now; we held it over, and having IN mind
the evil it complains of, took especial note
of it at the fairs we attended this year
There is no denying the facts which friend
Richards assert Cider and beer are sold.
and they should not he The law is explicit
on this point, and those who sell are liable
to he penalties of the law for selling, and
we have notion that it don't amount to
much for US to brag about our prohibtoIy
law on the fair grounds or IF. But there
is II little flaw in friend Richards reason
ing. The managers OF fairs do not become
criminals in the sight of the law because
other people sell liquor on their grounds
They should not permit it, and we pre-
sumo that in many if not most cases il i,
done without their consent or knowledge
Now we know in general way that liquor
was sold on the grounds at the state fair
because.we saw the results of it, bnt We
cannot swear to the fact, or to who sold it
because we neither bought any or saw
any one else buy.
The gambling games were plenty enough
at every fair we attended, Waitsfeld ex
cepted, where we only saw one of the "bal
throwing" images. We would have them
all cleared out. No game with gambling
chances should be permitted there, aud
this ball throwing is douby pernicious for
its prizes are curse. Three balls for
five cents. Try your skill boys; one knock
down gives you one cigar, two knock
