The Daily Bulletin.



Nearly every paper in the United
States has at times advised boys TO re.
main on the farm, and not TO trust the
Maynard ways Of fortune arising from
the diversified life Of city. In part
this advice is very good. II young
man expects TO come TO town and have
an easy time, he simply takes the wrong
view OF the situation. Sometimes, while
driving around town on q load of wood,
1t may seem TO the country boy that the
people in town are having an excessive
ly funny time, and that their life is a
magnificent fountain upon which chang
ing lights are playing He may think
that every pedestrian he sees is walking
for pleasure, and that when he gets
tired Of walking, he'll enter into some
other kind of pleasure, equally as sen
sational. The country boy looks in up
on the newspaper man, and thinks, with
sigh: THAT fellow amt got nothing
10 do but TO set there and write, while
have TO work Sitting there and writ
ing, young fellow, is harder, more eX-
haustive TO body, mind and soul than
any work you perform. You may think
that blowing with jumping cutter is
trying upon the nerves; that keeping
the straw back from the tail-end of a
grounding threshing-machine is devoid
OF humor; that pulling fodder possesses
but few charms; that drawing water
with wooden wndlass, for "A yoke Of
steers, is embarrassing; that setting out
cabbage plants and watering sweet po-
tato slips with sour suds may think
that these "have lost their charms for
me, Silvy;" but they are pursuits en-
trancing, hilariously ethereal, when com
pared with the undiversiiied work of
shutting yourself in room and contin-
uously moving your hand over paper
whose very whiteness, in the WEAKNESS
which comes, seems Ii Ike the deathly
pallor Of a-hanged II we know what.
No, young man. Continue TO haul
your wood, but, look here. Can't you
bring little better article than that
which YOU have accustomed yourself TO
handle? Wood is not sold by weight,
and YOU are serving no good purpose
NHill lOu I'ohl Ndt'l va Npul nlbths
Let your wood be dry aud honest, and
your chances for promotion in life are
good. You are driving steers now, but
if the people discover you are faithful
and honest, one Of these days YOU may
drive mules.
"Stay on the farm is the beginning
of hundreds Of newspaper articles As
rule they are written by men who left
the farm years ago and attained some
thing Of success The universal advice
of stay away from town is worthy Of
but little consideration. Many of the
most successful business men in the
United States have came from between
the pillow handles. II they had remained
on the farm AS their county papers adj
vised them, they might now be the til
lers of mortgaged soil, the hewers of
rough wood, and the drawers of swamp
water. Where one man leaves the farm
and attains success, probably ten fall
by the wayside, but perhaps those who
fail would never make successful farm
ers. OF course there are young men
who should never leave the farm only
