A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK.

For my own part, I am more upon my guard
as to my behavior to my servants, and others who
are called my interiors, than l am towards my
equals; for fear of being suspected of that mean
and ungenerous sentiment, of desiring to make
others feel that difference which fortune has (and
undeservedly too, perhaps), made between US.
Young people do not enough to attend to this,
but falsely imagine that the imperative mood,
and a rough tone of authority and decision, are
indications of spirit and courage-From Lord
ChesterfeIds Letters to His Son.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-08-04
ANOTHER LETTER TO THE FARMER WHO
HAS Glad BY" HIS CROP.

We take it, kind reader, that you have read
our letter of two weeks ago on "How to Help
Your Neighborhood," and we hope that you have
acted on some of the suggestions then made. We
talk a great deal about State pride-none too
much-but we fear that enough is not said about
-neighborhood pride. The State is so big that a
man is likely to feel that his efforts to help North
Carolina to a nobler position will count for moth
ing. But every man can help his neighborhood,
and we hope to see more neighborhOOd pride.
There's something wrong with you, kind reader, if
you are content to see any other neighborhood
have better roads, better schools, better farms,
better postal facilities, better farming machinery,
better churches and schoolhouses, more newspa-
per-reading farmers, or happier women and chill
dren, than you have in your neighborhood. If
there are such communities in advance of yours
then there is work for you to do at home. To lift
your neighborhood to higher standards is a no
bier form of civic service than any work your
political conventions have ever done and is in
deed one of the highest forms of Christian activ-
ity. We trust therefore that our former treatise
has not been forgotten. This letter, however, is
to suggest, not methods of community improve
ment, but some ways of getting more out of life
for yourself and your family.
First of all, we direct your attention to the
need of identifying, identifying, your farm. You
will find some good suggestions along this line in
an article on page II. Give your house the
proper setting with liberal yard room and a good
grove of trees in front. And don't cultivate right
around the house where the yard ought to be;
don't sacrifice S. worth of beauty and dignity
for 81 worth of crops. Encourage your wife and
daughters in their efforts to beautify the yard
with flowers and vines and shrubbery, even if
it takes a little money. Don't crowd your barn
and Outbuildings close to the house, and above
all things don't feed the hogs and cattle at the
front gate. If YOU can afford it, have a fresh
coat of paint put on the buildings. Remember,
however, that no mar is too poor to afford a big,
ample yard with a grassy lawn and old-fashioned
flowers and plenty of shade trees,and vines enough
to cover up u~nsightly buildings and shade the
porch. Then you ought to name your farm, and
have its name and your own name neatly printed
on your stationery. This is businesslike, and will
insure greater consideration for every letter you
write. Some of these suggestions may not seem
exactly appropriate to this season of the year
