1t is generally supposed that the
lawyer needs special training, that the
physician should attend lectures at
least one term, and the preacher
should spend some time in college and
seminary, but that the farmer and
stock raiser can pick up the trade at
once. A good many professional men
wish their sons to become farmers
and imagine all they need is such an
outfit as money can buy. Instead
they should send their sons to work
as farm hands with q practical farm
er who really understands his business
In fact, if a boy who intends to farm
would work year or two at merely
nominal wages it would be first class
investment. And especially in the stock
yard, the only way the business can
be learned is by actually, under CON-
petent instruction, doing the work.

The Good Templars' Lodge at Madi-
son has addressed circular to the
Good Templars of Wisconsin citing
the fact that the order has decreased
in interest and membership during
the past three years and assigns the
cause to the fact that the managers
have run the order into politics.
During four years one half the expen-
SEES of the order in Wisconsin has been
paid to four persons: Kanouse, Par
ker. Seboske and Miss Nash. The
Madison Lodge has undoubtedly come
to the conclusion that the leaders of
the politico-temperance movement are
demagogues and thinks it time to call
a halt and confne their efforts to
temperance.
