The answer is self evident-perpetual
toll in good weather all through the
busy season. and perpetual 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 revolt against
this uncomfortable loneliness and even
now often walk miles through the rain
or the snow to spend half a day in sit
ting around the stove in the country
store. Already, in many sections. the
young people of both sexes have broken
through the barriers and 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 tendency
be reasonably directed, and all ages
and both sexes enjoy their long winter
evenings together. John w Book
