A Pictorial Region.

is very reasonable and within the means
Of large number of men.
A Pictorial Region.
Chocorua, a scattering hamlet, mile
and a half away from the farm, is four
miles from West Ossipee. where the ex-
press train on the Boston and Maine
railroad stops, SO that this is a social
solitude unless you choose to make 1t
otherwise. Chocorua is a new name,
good because aboriginal, derived from
the tallest peak, less than 3, 500 feet, i'll
the vicinity. The former name was
Tamworth Iron Works, which the maps
and the gazetteers still retain and the
genial public alone know. The iron
works were established, believe. near
the close of the Revolution, had no
prosperity and were soon discontinued.
This county (Carroll) and Coos are
the most barren part of this very barren
state, for in the two lie the greater
portion of the mountains. Farming
hereabout, as nearly everywhere in New
England, seems a sarcasm on industry,
for the farmers almost never earn more
than a simple livelihood by very hard
work and have never had a chance Of
earning more. How they managed to
subsist before the days of the summer
boarder it is impossible to conceive.
They cannot conceive themselves. The
summer boarder has helped them finan-
cially, but they are less laborious, less
energetic, than they were before his
coming. They have become discouraged
by generations of profitless, unremitting
work They have grown weary of till
ing rocks and raising weeds under the
name Of farming. They have turned to
the summer boarder, who was anxious
to be taken III the beginning, and now
they cannot do without him and will
not try to. He has become their provi-
dence, and they trust him more than
they used to the theologic one, since he
serves them in better stead and is far
more apprehensible. Most Of the farm
ers in Carroll county would be glad to
sell their farms for cottages to urbanlsts
and probably will ultimately, as many
have already done. What they will turn
to afterward no one can see or say. But
it is as clear as sunlight that farming
in Now Hampshire is as surely doomed
as is old fashioned Calvinism.

Jimmie has been staying in the country
all summer with his grandpa, who allows
him to assist IN all the labors of the farm,
and Jimmie thinks that farm could not be
run without his valuable assistance. His
mother does not appreciate his achieve

he kept Il little nearer the head of his
class. One day she said to him:
Jimmie why aren't you as smart as
Willie Brown? He can read splendidly and

read pretty well, but he can't manage

Oct IA Most city persons who have
small children think a farm one Of the
best places for them during the summer,
though unwilling perhaps to subject
them to the usual farm methods Of
housekeeping. If they could put them
on farm and keep house themselves
they would be glad to do it. Such an
opportunity seldom occurs. But it has
occurred to me, and 1 have gladly en-
braced it with what promises to be very
desirable results.
