A boy was summoned to testify
in a case of assault, in which one
man had hit another with a
shovel. A host of witnesses had
been called, who "beat about the
bush" in the most tedious and
provoking manner.
This annoyed the lawyer for
the prosecution, who broke out as
follows: "Here, boy, we've been
going round and round this case
for hours, and yet have no evil
dence to convict the prisoner.
Now, SIR" he savagely continued
"do you hear me? Iwant you to
come to the direct point. Did
you see the blow struck?"

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION.

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION.
It is a fact recognized by all
that the doctor, the lawyer, or
anyone following a professional
or a mercantile pursuit, must
have some special training in
order that he may attain success
in his chosen work. The most
ignorant farmer would not think
of undertaking to make doctor
or lawyer out of his son without
frat sending him to some reputa-
BILE college where young men are
trained for such professions. Yet
it seems that very few ever think
of a boy needing any special
training in order to become a
farmer. Anybody can farm, 80
it is thought. If boy can plow,
use q eultivator, or do the ordi-
nary work about a farm he is re-
garded as very well fitted for
making a successful farmer. The
farm is often regarded as the
place for such persons as have
not attained sufficient education
to follow some other pursuit in
life. The children are told, in |
many instances, az our public
schools that they should be dtli-
gent in pursuing their studies, in
order that they may prepare
themselves for some higher call
ing in life than manual labor.
They are thus taught to regard
manual labor as only fit for per-
sons who can support themselves
in no other way. They are thus
led to think that it does not re-
quire trained thought to be
successful in farming. Nothing
but hard work and plenty of it is
considered requisite. The boy
who gets this idea in his head is
inclined to think there is no hon.
or in making success of some
thing which only requires hard
manual labor. He must choose
something of the professions
where it requires hard menEaF
work and where there is some
honor in being successful, so the
farmer boy is off to the city in
N any instances to swell the list
of the unsuccessful in life. The
boy then often undertakes to
drown the memory of his disap-
point in dissipation and riotous
living and is rushed on toward
dissipsted life and often a DRINK.
ards grave When it is generally
recognized and understood that
farming is a business which re-
quires trained thought as well as
manual labor, and the successful
farmer is recognized as he should
be, there will not be such a tend.

farm boys. It is true that the
