SEQ AND DO LIKEWISE"

What is the reason why Sussex
county farmers cannot follow the ex-
ample of the "furriners" from the
northern States, who have turned
Kent and New Castle counties into
as fair a section of country as can
be found in the United States.
There is as good land in Sussex
county as can be found in either
of the other counties of Delaware
and yet it is over-run with briars,
weeds and other trash unsightly and
wearisome to the eye of any stranger,
even from the poorest sections Of
the Northern and Eastern States.
Why is this, thus? why do not the
Sussex county farmers have the i'm
itative qualities ofa" "heathenChinee.
There are men like Mr.. J. J. Rosa
who have been for years among them,
men with intelligence, zeal for their
craft, and great energy of character;
men who live, and do not merely ex-
ist, who make money, and have it to
loan, men whose brains save their
arms and backs from many an ache
men whose products are sought after
at the highest market prices. Yet
for all this, their bright example
which is pointed to in other sections
of country as an encouragement to
their brethren; in their immediate
neighbOrhood is counted as rought if |
not ridiculed. "Verily a prophet is
not without honor, save in his own
country"
Farmers of Sussex county, have
you no ambitions is plenty Of corn
pone and Western bacon the whole
object of your existence. You be-
vail the repugnance of your sons
and daughters to follow the business
Ofa farmer, as noble calling as any
of the so called learned professions.
1t grieves you to see them desert
your and their homes to become
counter jumpers and enter into sim
liar occupations; leaving you the
prospect of lifelong hard labor until 7
you find a quiet rest in the grave.
You deserve your fate, to die Of !
heart-ache and back-ache; but pity i
tbs, and more the pity, that you in 2
yolve your wives, and those Of your
sons and daughters whom filial duty
impels to remain with you, in the c
same miserable and hopeless fate. e
You envy your successful farmer ?
their comforts, but do not 3
cOvet them. Would that you would 8
cOyet them, then, you would endeav- d
or earn them, and in so doing your
would not be a deca- o
loguean sin. b
This is peculiarly the brain age of W
5he worlds generations; through
brains, under a divine Providence, is
he curse of labor to be done away
With. The march of the worlds pro -
yress is upward and onward, they !
Who cannot keep step to the beat Of 4
is step-drums will inevitably be tram !.
lied under foot, or left in the rear. j.
Farmers of Sussex county wake =.
p, reveille beats, follow the example ..
# your successful leaders, and neigh =
ors, and you will realize the same ::
esirable results. You will be re- :
pected, for success always COM I
lands respect. You will have COM Z
pleasant homes for your :
elves and families, whom under such Z
lrrOundings will scarcely ever de- !
re to desert the parental rooftree. s
