AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION.

If agriculture were taught in our
common schools much of the false
impression now in the minds of the
farmer boys would be cleared
away, and a higher value placed
upon the farm and the farmer, and
he would quickly see the oppor.
tunities offered by the life Of q
farmer when conducted on busi-
ness principles, and he would not
be in such hurry TO rush to the
town or city to seek other employ
ment. When we consider that
agriculture is the foundation stone
upon which rests the happiness,
prosperity and greatness Of our
country, and without which all
other enterprises would fail, it
seems strange that great science
dealing with nature, to understand
which brings into play all the fac
ulties of the mind, would be SO
little considered as a part of our
educational system. The time has
come for action along these lines,
and the day is not far distant when
more of the science Of agriculture
will be taught in all the schools
and less of foreign exchange and
Greek. To this end every farm
paper and every newspaper should
work until we place the profession
of the farmer at its rightful place
at the head of all the professions
requiring a knowledge of plan
growth and requirements, and
ABOVE all, business ability. Il
there any other profession tha
requires a broader and more com
prehensive education than thisi-

THE HAPPY MAN

The happicst man IN the world,
says the Scdgwlck Paragraph. is
the common everyday chap, who
makes his own living, pays his
own bills. and bears the honest re.
spect Of his ueighhors. He sticks
Il llt'le money away rs he goes
along, hut he dnrsn't strive to get
n corner on the local output, aud
he Is a slave to neither ambition
nor society. He never expects to
wear out the seat of his pants in
the Senate, and where he slides
into his clothes in the morning he
never wastes any time trying to
pick out the right tint of socks,
suspenders and necktie that will
blend with the general effect. He
wears "biled" shirt when he feels
like it, and when his pet corn
begins to jump about right he
whips out his jsckknife and cuts
four-inch cash in the side of his
boot, and nothing is said of it in the
paper. He has an appetite like a
cyclone, and he never has to sit up
at night to poultice his conscience.
He belives in the doctrine Of lvie
and let live, and when he doesn't
stutter with his pocketbook. The
plain plug Of a man is happy be-
cause he Is satisfied, and doesn't
spend the best of his life in yearn-
ing for something three or four
sizes too big for him

And the footlight maids, with their lights
