We often hear persons complaining
about Sunday being such a dun day
for them in lIolyoke, that they do not
know how to pass the time. We have
two churches in IIolyoke where SER
vices are held every Sunday. AT the
NJ. L. church, Rev. Cook breaches
morning and evening and Sunday
school Immediately follows the morn
ing service. At the Christian church
in West IIolyoke, Sunday school SER
vices are held every Sunday at 4 p. m.
central time and arrangements are be-
ing made for regular preaching SER
vice. There isplenty of room and good
Accommodations in these churches for all
who will attend and, If every one in
town would make 1t Il point to attend
upon these services regularly they
would be greatly proiited thereby and
whether reiigiously inclined or not,
would soon come to feel that Sunday
in Holyoke is n day to be looked for
ward to with pleasure and satisfaction.

The Farmer a Skilled Laborer.

Rodney Welch in the Jan. Forum.
Viewed from the lofty standpoint OF
the New York Hod-carriers; Union,
considered from the hall of the Phila-
delphia Bill-posters' Protective Associa-
ton, the prairie farmer is simply a
clodhopper. He is man who decides
to have corn, wheat, and potatoes, in
stead Of wild grass, grow ON certain
piece of land, and plants the seed that
will produce them. In point of fact,
more knowledge and skill are requisite
for prosecuting his craft than that Of
any city artisan. 1t requires more skill
to handle plow than a trowel. It is
more difficult to manage reaping-
machine than a machine that turns
out brick Greater knowledge is needed
to SOW grain than to move switches in
freight yard. Much more information.
experience, and skill are needed to raise
tobacco plants, to cultivate them, and
property to cure the leaves, than to
make them into cigars. Laying drain
tile is more difficult art than laying
brick. Properly to remove q fleece
from sheep demands as great dexteri-
ty as to shave the beard from a face.
The successful farmer is necessarily q
skilled laborer. He is master, not Of
one trade, but of many, and and a
long time is required to learn each OF
them. He is also merchant, and to
be prosperous he must be judge of the
quality of many things, and know how
to buy and sell them to the best advan-
tage.
