 The book farmer consults his books as lawyer and a doctor would his lib- rary. and he acquires knowledge by ex- perience The book farmer knows he has much to learn and he studies all condi- tions with an open mind His experience in cities has made his mind useful to him. The old-time farmer shut his mind to books and made his mind useless to himself. Thereon hangs the difference.
 The poultry market of all great cities shows a great improvement over twenty years ago. Turkeys, geese. ducks, chick ems are finer. heavier and better than they used to be. This enormous branch of agricultural industry is now almost who have gone to the country to live.
 This shifting of the agricultural people to the cities and the people of the cities to the farms Is opening upon an interest ing question in modern life. It will do much to lift the mental characteristics or agricultural districts and will materially add to the wealth of the farmers.
 Any young man who Is on farm should become a book man and book farmer and he will cease to sigh for the city pavements. No life is equal to that of a man who can sustain himself and his family on 8 farm. his condition pos- sesses advantages he little dreams of.

above the general average. For years the idea prevailed that a farmer pos sessed knowledge of weather no city man could acquire. Without this know ledge no man dared trust seed or bulb to the earth. All this is nonsense. It has exploded with time. Those who did not possess this knowledge and were guided by agricultural books were contemptuous- ly styled book farmers. Today the best farmers in the country are the men who read the reports from agricultural sta- tions
 A city man in managing. a farm brings to bear upon it his training as a busi- ness man. He utilizes all the agencies and all his time. He farms with his head as well as his hands. He understands the employment of labor and knows the cost of wasted time and energy. After a few years of practical experience he becomes not only the equal but the mas ter of the old-time farm CT. Farming Is scientific. In olden times the farmer did things in this way or in that because 1t was the custom. This custom was the result of experience either personal or

HIS MORALS.

Unlike the great majority of royalties, he made a love match. Bismarck opposed the Princess whom he selected, but he said he would remain a bachelor forever if he were denied. He had his way.
 He has been a loving and faithful hus- band Though the multitudinous tempta- tions incident to a combination of sea life and royalty have been thrown in his way, he has laughed them off. No breath of scandal has ever tainted his name.
 He was a dutiful son, the favorite of his father, who left him the bulk of his private fortune.
 He is a devoted father, making it an object of his life to Eghten the burden of his eldest son, Wildemar, who is deaf and dumb.
 He drinks beer, wine and spirits, but never to excess
 He smokes cigars and pipes, but not cigarettes.
 He plays cards for money, but never so heavily as to involve his opponents be- yond their immediate means.
 He is not extravagant. Not even in his youth, when his allowance was compar- atively small, did he run into debt
The age-herald., 1902-02-02
HIS MENTALITY.

He has a good education in the liberal arts; and an experts education in ev- erything nautical, from ancient naval bat ties to holy-stoning decks.
 Following the custom of his house he learned trade when a youth He could earn his living anywhere as watch maker.
 He speaks English purely and fiuently.
 He speaks French without an accent.
 He can converse in Spanish, Italian, Russian and Swedish. He can also read these languages readily.
 He has had a thorough education in everything musical, and for an amateur is a remarkable musician.
 Like his father, Frederick IT., he is a Liberal in politics. He has thus fre- ouently incurred reproof from his reac- tionary brother, the Emperor, but has gained in consequence the devotion of the people of Germany.
 His mind is not of the devious, subtle order, but direct and straightforward. He makes better Admiral than he would diplomat or courier.
 His mind is accurate and strong, but not showy nor brilliant. Mentally his brother is a greater man.
The age-herald., 1902-02-02
HIS TEMPERAMENT.

He is the only one of the Hohenzollerns who has a sense of humor.
 In spite of his love for music, he Is not of melancholy disposition, nor is he subject to moods.
 He is not vain; nor does he relish the frills and furbelows of court life.
 Contrariwise. he likes to be at sea- where he knows he is down to the ele- ments. Waves and wind do not fatter
 He has the only democratic nature of all the royalties in Europe. He easily gets on terms of good-fellowship with all whom he meets.
 He has a large degree of personal mag netism which enables him to impress fa- vorably people he meets for the first time
 He despises all men not thoroughly mas culine; and women not entirely feminine.
 He is fearless, both morally and phys ically He has risked his life for com mon sailors on the ship twice. He talks back to the Emperor when he feels like it, and has been banished two or three times temporarily for lese majesty to his brother
 He is preternaturally calm, and has never been seen 'rattled.'

City Life Versus Farm Life

 What would tho farmers son scornfully regarding his surroundings say if he knew that his condition was not only en- vied by hundreds, but that 1t was the aspiration of their lives? Nevertheless, such is the case.
 Now here comes a remarkable fact. The men who are living the happiest lives on farms today are city bred men, and fur thermore they are the men who are mak- ing the largest profits and living far
The age-herald., 1902-02-02

It is a we'll accepted fact that the farm CTS son is generally supposed to have one idea-to fly to the city. A farmers lot in life does not seem to him to be a happy one. The daily routine work Is marked by a total absence of excitement, it appears hard and monotonous and promises little advancement in fortune and little preferment in station. The city life seems bristlng W tn energy, possibi1- ity and opportunity; to say nothing of its variety of pleasures.
 On the other hand 1t is perceptibly mo- ticeable that there is steady emigra- ton of men with their families to the country. For those who go there are hun dreds who have fought the battle of city

Letter from DR.. Adams.
Havana, Cuba, March 10

Havana, Cuba, March 10.
Dear Mr.. Gary:
I am delighted with Havana.
The weather is superb and the
land a paradise. Corn is in t;isel
and they are making hay. Every
thing grows amazingly. Banan
as line the railroad in places like
weeds, and there are cactus
hedges covered with morning
glories, and palms, and royal
palms bearing dates, and palmet-
toes, and cocoanut trees, and
mangoes, and oranges, and lem
ons. and pine-apples, etc, in
abundance. The open places are
covered with great sward OF
grass which looks like bluegrass,
and grows as high as three or
four feet. Havana is remark,
ably clean and the fine houses
are beautiful, mostly one story
with big pillars in front, and OF
all collors; blue, creamy white,
red, pink and yellow. The yards
are large and filed with tropical
plants and flowers. l never saw
, anything so beautiful.
Politically the prospect is bad.
Nobody that l meet expects the
new government to succeed, and
the worst of it is they don t want
1T to succeed.
I am rushed this morning and
must close. [ leave for New Or
leant Saturday and shall ;go iii
rectly home. I hope to reach
Chicago Tuesday night. L hope
and pray that your church will
prosper, and that DR.. II. Will be
able to hold some meetings.

The Revival Meetings.

A fair congregation, splendid
singing and good meeting is the
report that comes to us of the
service at the Congregational
church last night. The theme
was the greatest of all themes,
s'The Love of Christ" The proof
of this love was found in what it
had done. First, it pitied, then
it planned to help, then it came
to US, exchanging the glories of
heaven for the curses of earth.
Then it lived among US a life of
love, relieving distress, curing
sickness, casting out the devil,
teaching US the truth of God and
heaven and redemption from sin.
Then it gave itself a sacrifice for
sin on the cross-then it return
ed to men to show that His offer
ing was real; then it assembled up
to the throne of God, there to ap-
pear for US; then it sent back the
great invitations of love, and other
voices join with His, urging US
not to let anything come in to rob
US of the beautiful and eternal
home which He has prepared for
US.
Meetings at 8 p. M; young
peoples meeting at 4;and preach
ing at 7:45. All cordially invited.
