AN AGRICULTURAL REVIVAL.

There is in progress all over the
United States today a remarkable de-
velopment of interest in all that per-
tains to the soil and it's products. Moth
ing like it has ever been seen before.
The farm and the farmer, heretofore
but little appreciated by the masses,
rated as below par in a financial, So
cial and economic way, personified by
coatless, unshaven RUDE, with a rake
in his hand, leaning on a hog yard
fence, are fast becoming the centers of
interest. The old granger is almost
paralyzed in view of the interest being
taken in both him and his business
The kid gloved society man bows to
him, the scientist cOnsults with him,
the banker courts his acquaintance and
deposits, while no schools prosper as
do agricultural schools and colleges or
are so largely patronized. Science,
while ever ready and willing, but SO
long barred by prejudice from intimate
acquaintance and affiliation with agri-
culture, now finds an open door and
to larger extent and with more bene-
ficent results than in any other line of
human endeavor is unlocking doors of
agricultural possibility and Offering
prizes so valuable that the attention OF
all Is being invited. Man, foreordained
from the beginning to live close to the
soil and as a result Of modern so call
ed progress very widely divorced from
1t, is at last beginning to realize that
much Of what we term human happi-
ness is not very far removed from
ownership and cultivation of the soil.
So we find city bred men, the product
Of the factory, the office and intense
municipal conditions, the salaried man
and the rich man, manifesting an in
terest in the soil and the farm or gar
den never before seen. The east is be-
ing dotted with farms owned and oper-
ated by millionaires, the poultry farm
has become as much of a commercial
proposition as a mill or q factory, the
trolley lines have made possible the
country home and the large garden and
orchard for even the city toiler, an agri-
cultural press is in connection with ex-
pertinent station and farm institute,
cAPiotiuS TIC PoSSlullllleS VI prOuuC-
ton under better farm methods, while
specialists in crop production are doing
a missionary work of the highest i'm
portance. The coming year will see
more nice gardens made, more straw
berry beds set out, more front yards
beautified and more back yards cleaned
up. more trees planted and more Of
agricultural and horticultural progress,
than any year since the pilgrim ia
theirs landed. The revival can bring
only good to the people individually
and the country at large. 1t has come
to stay.
We have noticed in our travels lately
