Real Success.

The farm, which gives the father a
mere living, may give the son a com-
potency. The farmers boy should
realize hat success is not so much
low much one earns in a year, as how
much one gets out of the year in ex-
perience, money and opportunity to en-
joy life. A few hundred dollars armed
on a good farm may leave at the end
of the year much more in actual money
than five times the mount of earn
ings will leave to the boy or man in
the city. True, the city boy may say
that, although 1t costs more to live in
the city, one gets more that is worth
while, and therefore city life is worth
what is paid for 1t. There never was
a greater mistake made. While the
city may give more than does the
country, even in some things worth
having, the city charges more for what
it gives. even when intrinsic value is
considered ounce by ounce and pound
by pound. Many OF the things which
city people think they want, they
neither want nor need. Our comforts
depend largely upon the difference be-
tween what we earn and what we need
to spend.
The farmer may receive the mini
mum amount Of income, but he also
has the minimum amount OF worry and
expense. What the world needs to-
day is more, and not less, farms, and
more intelligent and scientific farming,
and more business farmers.

Prof. John F. Duggar, NJ. s., director
OF the experimental station, at Auburn,
Ala, and professor OF agriculture at the
Alabama Polytechnic Institute, in a
letter to the author, says:
Il am thoroughly convinced that
moEy a country boy overlooks rich OPP
portunities for a useful and prosperous
life in the country. The country has
been made u~nattractive to the farmers
children on account Of isolation, on ac-
count Of the farmers uncomplimentary
talk about his wi vocation, and on ac-
count of the failure of the average
country boy to understand the fascin-
ating operations Of nature with which
he is surrounded. Awakened public
sentiment in favor of improved rural
schools and better roads is already
notable and viii result in partially
overcoming the isolation Of country
life.

Indueements Of Country lie.

Among the considerations which
should be weighed by the young man
Investigating the advantages Of
country life are the following: First,
land is advancing in value, and unless
one gets a foothold in this generation,
its requirement in the next may be far
more difficult. Second, the highest
degree. Of health and independence and
happiness ar@ ~obtainable in the coun-
try. The retsl as from agriculture are
more certain, euen though less in gross
amount, than In most other occupa-
tons, and the opportunities for saw
ing are far greater tnan in the city.
Moreover, increased knowledge Of the
sciences on which agriculture is based
brings increased profits and affords
the inestimable satisfaction OF pursu-
ing a vocation congenial and fascinat-
ing.

new BANK IN TROUBLE.
Started Business Without Authority of
Bank Commissioner.

Bank Commissioner John @. Royce
discovered today that the State Savings
bank of Lyons, Kan, which WAS char
tered for $4,000 on January 20, 1906.
has been doing an active banking bust
ness ever since February Il. without
authority from the department.
It is thought that this action was due
to ignorance of the banking laws on
the part of the people who established
the bank, although under the statutes
the officers of the bank are guilty of a
misdemeanor and subject to fine and
Imprisonment for failing to secure the
necessary authority from the bank
commissioner to start up in business
Mr.. Royce today sent his assistant,
w. S. Albright, to Lyons to investigate
the situation, and if advisable. to au-
thorize the bank to transact business
according to law. The officers of the
bank are J. W. Pullian, PRESIDENT E.
B. Pulliam. vice president, and 10 Pull
liam. cashier.
It was not known that the bank was
transa citing business until a letter was
received from one of the officers com
planning because the bank commission
er had not sent him the blanks for the
quarterly statement for which a call
was recently made. This fact is what
indicates that the officers of the bank
did not know they were acting unlaw-
fully when they started up in business
without getting the necessary certif1-
cate from the banking department

when it is grounded on fact and ex-

can not repose in security upon its exalted
