OUR FARM BOYS OPPORTUNITIES.

Many writers of recent date, and many
at the present time, are writing very
encouraging letters giving their own ex-
perience as well as that of others, who
have begun to push for themselves in
the world from rather adverse condi-
tions, and climbed the ladder OF success
rung by rung, and are now in a position
to enjoy lucrative avocations, while they
are still looking ahead for another oppor-
tunity to advance further. All of these
writers without exception, (and there
are many of them) hold the opinion, and
express themselves freely, that the op-
portunities for promotion for an ener-
getic, hustling, trustworthy young man
are of daily occurrence.
This becomes more and more apparent
in conformity to conditions necessitated
by the introduction of applied science

grapher, lawyer, an entomologist, a
chemist and timber physicist, mathe-
matician of no mean order, and he will
be the better equipped if he knows some
thing Of mechanics, of pisciculture and
of venery.
Before young man decides to take
up the profession of forestry he will want
to consider carefully what demands
the life will make upon him and de-
termine what the chances are Of his be.
ing able to meet them. In the first
place he must be of robust or wiry ply
sique. Without this he can hardly hope
to successfully complete his studies in
preparation for his professional career.
1t will also be an important part of his
stock in trade, for he will be called upon
to make long and arduous journeys on
horse and on foot, through the roughest
of country, and to live in many cases
life Of severe simplicity and perhaps of
comparative hardship. Such calling
naturally appeals to the dramatic and
adventure-loving temperaments of
healthy young men, and the opportuni-
ties offered for becoming the pioneers
in an honorable profession, for making
a reputation, fortune perhaps, and of
helping to save to ones country, one Of
her most valuable possessions, appeal to
the ambitions.
It is not all glorious life in the mer-
ry green wood, however. There is
plenty Of prose in this case as in every
other calling. Let the young, would-be
forester not forget that there will be
weary hours Of Office grind such as rec
ord keeping, tabulating, figuring, map
making. There will be weeks and
months when he will be obliged to live
away from his fellows, away from every
luxury, even far from post Office and
all that that means to an exiled man,
and with no human society but rough
loggers' crew. If, after full and COM
plete realization of all this,a young man
feels drawn to the work, he will doubt
less prove credit to the profession.-

conferred upon the graduates of DR..
Schenck's school there. At Cornell the
degree of Bachelor in Science of For
estry is given. Special students, at
least twenty-one years Of age, who are
not candidates for degrees, are also ac-
cepted at Cornell. Post graduate courses
for masters or doctors degree are un-
der consideration. At Yale the degree
of Master of Forestry will be given to
graduates of the Forestry School who
have previously received bachelors de-
grees from collegiate institutions:of high
standing, or who have had training
equivalent to that Of such institutions.
Special students are also received though
such are recommended to take courses
at the summer school rather than at the
winter semesters. All applicants for
admission to the Yale School must be
not less than twenty years of age.
Berea is essentially Kentucky noun
taineer's school, and IS it is not likely
to draw students from this section it
will be needless to devote space to it's
conditions. At the New Hampshire
college an advanced course is offered
to the regular students, and there is
one year special course open to all
corners.
Candidates for degrees at Cornell and
Yale are required to pass entrance ex-
aminations. Cornell's full course lead
ing to the degree of B. S. F. is one of
four years. Special courses of a single
term, h single year, or three years are
also provided, and short summer courses
are carried on in the college forest for
the training of rangers, logging bosses
and under foresters. Yales full course
is of but two years duration. The en-
trance examinations at Cornell and Yale
differ considerably in subjects. Cornell
requires English, history (Greek, Ro-
man, English and Americam, plain and
solid geometry, plain and spherical trig
onometry, algebra, advanced German,
advanced French, or Latin may be sub
stituted for French. Yale calls for al
zebra, plain, solid and spherical geome-
try, trigonometry, botany, geology,
chemistry, physics, German or French,
English and political economy.
While the courses offered by Cornell
and Yale are necessarily much alike,
they yet differ in several ways. Cor
nells full course being two years longer
than that of Yale, makes it possible to
introduce greater variety of subjects.
The courses of both schools are very
fully set forth in the circulars which
may be had on application to the direct
ors. A mere casual perusal of those cir.
culars will suffice to indicate the all
round qualifications demanded of for

the consolidation of capital to place upon
the markets of the world products in the
best possible condition at the lowest rate
possible.
In all the different trades and pro-
fessions, including commercial and spec
ulative pursuits, we find men making q
success of their special calling, who as
boys and young men were struggling
along as common workingmen and me-
chanics with small income, but rich in
integrity, industry and energy, while at
the same time fortifying themselves
with the necessary education indispensa-
BILE to that line of life of which they
have resolved to make speciality. For
such well equipped young men, the de-
mand is more than the supply. On ac-
count Of the ever increasing competitive
system of doing business, the opportun-
tiles are before every young man who
by hard work and firm determination
has mastered all details of his adopted
line of business. This we would rather
call digging or hunting up the opportun-
titles; although begun at the lowest
steps of the ladder, the possibilities as
seen by his workmanship act as an ad-
vertisement to the higher branches of
his calling; whereas if he regards his
labor as drudgery and is always striking
for an advance of pay and shorter hours,
he soon finds himself fretting at his bad
luck, when observing other young men
who he thinks are only of the ordinary
kind, enjoying the opportunity.
There are hundreds Of boys and young
men upon our western farms, who no
doubt are asking themselves what their
chances are for the future. 'Tis we'll
when boy reasons thus. To begin with
he should have his mind fully made up
as to what occupation he would most in
cline to follow; then wit, frmness of
purpose, and an honest diligence he
must acquaint himself with all details
that may come within his sphere in that
particular branch of farming to which
he is aspiring, whether in the line of
stock, dairying or orcharding as spec
ialty or combined with general farming.
Not only should he know what his duty
is, but he must be prepared at all times,
even in times Of emergency, to apply
his most energetic efforts to bring about
normal conditions.
A case to the point. Take two young
men of equal age, having the same ad-
vantages of school and farm training
In the spring both hire to an extensive
farmer, Mr.. A. John is sent out with
team to plow. Tom had some other
duties to attend to around the buildings
In an hour or so John returns with the
horses, making inquiries about Mr.. A.
