Esthetic and Intellectual Features
of Farm Life.

At a first glance this may not seem
practical subject for a farm paper.
but if we do not build up proper
love of the beauties of nature about
us and neglect the intellectual side
of life. are we any better than the
brutes about us? Let lis now and

bread and wealth and remember the
spiritual and mental phases of this
existence of ours.

should be more beautiful and con-

that of Il farmer. is an iGea that is

line is IL combination that is fast

be desired. but most of his work is in
