The Fulton Sun, speaking of the
death of selden Brooks, says: A
few hours before his death he was
perfectly rational and talked about
his condition. He knew he would
die and was perfectly resigned to
go. He leaves a wife, two chill
dren, aged three and five years,
four brothers and several sisters.
Selden grew up in Mexico and was
liked by all who knew him. He
was of genial, kind disposition
and made many friends. He was
express messenger and baggage
man on the Branch for the past
several years and had many friends
who will be panied to know of his
death. Peace to his ashes.

Why the Boys Leave the Farm


The answer is self-evident-per-
petual toll in good weather all
through the busy season, and per-
petual loneliness in bad weather
and most of the winter season.
The time when the farmers have
leisure is, in half the country, the
very time when they cannot get
away from home by reason of their
isolation and bad roads; yet such
is the hunger of the heart that the
boys resolve against this unendur-
able loneliness and even now often
walk miles through the rain or the
snow to spend half day in sitting
around the stove in country store.
Already, in many sections, the
young people of both sexes have
broken through the barriers and
have established farmers clubs
and little societies of one sort or
another; and improved roads have
done much to aid this relief. But
why should not this natural ten
dency be reasonably directed. and
all ages and both sexes enjoy their
long winter evenings together?
