The following from an exchange con-
corning the life of a farmer is true in
every particular statement: "The
farmer doesn't have to solicit patronage
from anyone; he doesn't have to enter
into competition and strife with any of
his neighbors like a merchant; he does
not have to depend on his collections,
reluctantly doled ont, as editors do; in
fact he can be the most independent
man on Gods green earth if he manages
his business in a business-like way. He
has more time and opportunity for cul-
tivating his mind; he has fewer allure
ments for corrupting his morals, and
his occupation is more conductive to
the highest developement of his physi-
cal powers than any other"
