is not far. off when the man will be
hunting the job instead of the job

good time. however, and all have had
share in it. The wise man has paid
up his debts and in large measure

ALL INTERESTED IN AGRICULTURE.
There has developed in the large cor
respOndence growing out Of the pub
lication of these notes the very pleas
ing fact that q large percentage Of
men engaged in professional mercan-
tile and manufacturing lines have
strong liking for things pertaining to
the farm. This is, not to be wondered
at when one considers how many of
them were born and raised upon the
farm, and then through much of the
country:>especially in the great west,
all kinds Of business outside of the
farm are so very closely connected
with the farm-agricultural prosperity
and good crops insuring commercial
and professional success-that things
pertaining to agriculture are of interest
to nearly all. Then the man in town.
be he doctor, lawyer. merchant or par
son, is just as much interested in his
home surroundings. and often more
than is the farmer. for he will have
his garden. his lawn. his flowers. his
shade and fruit trees. often his chick.
ems and COW. and for many the
dream of their lives is to have a small
farm where living shall be free from
the fret, strife and competition Of our
modern commercialism. And so it
comes that If anything can be written
which shall appeal to the almost uni
versal love Of nature and natural
things of home, and how to make it
a more delightful place of life and
how to get the most and best out of
it. the parson in his study. the mer-
chant in his counting room. the teacher
in his schoolroom. the lawyer in his
Office are as much interested as he who
tolls on the farm. i.,r .- -. ..s.

that to make of himself a better farm

what he did: He hired out by the

country and worked for him four
years, learning all he could about
