ADVICE TO FARMERS and THEIR SONS.

The Waxhaw Enterprise says
editorially:
I'VE notice that quite a num-
Der of our exchanges have lately
been urging the country boys to
stay on the farm. We also OBJ
serve that some two or three city
divines in this State are now Of
fering the same advice to farm
ers' sons. Well, it goes without
the saying that on the farm is a
mighty good place to stay, if a
fellow had rather be there than
any where else. But we pre-.
sumo that farmers sons, like
everybody else, naturally have
their preferences and are a:
much entitled to them as Other
people are. If farmers sons
want to remain on the farm, lei
them do so, and if they prefer Il
go elsewhere, let them do so
We repeat here what we have
frequently said before, tina
when some editors get out o.
something else to write about
they proceed to give the farmeI
and his family a whole lot of FIRE,
advice"
There is a great deal of sens
in this. It has always seemed +,
US that farmers are abouta as capa
BILE as other people Of attending
to their own business, and it j
an increasing wonder why the.
and their families should com
in for more unsought advice thal
any other class in the world. =

The above is in line with tn
stand we have taken in such mat

due to the fact that policemen

Monday evening. 1t is the general I'M

The secretary's visit to Boston Is
considered significant following re-

doned him for Taft.

to be a movement on foot to place

point out that Nebraska republicans
adopted a Taft resolution last summer
as evidence that Taft has a cinch on
that state.
