Some young people imagine that duty

The Boy and the Farm

1t is all very well, when you have
nothing to do but kill time, to talk
about keeping the boys on the farm,
but you spend your time splitting at a
crack. Boys will stay on farm as
well as anywhere, If they receive de-
cent treatment at home. The boy who
is yanked out of bed by the hair,
kicked out to milk and euiTed into
into breakfast. as a preliminary to
being popped through the field all
day, is not likely TO be consumed by
his love for the glories of agriculture
nor for his sire. Give the boy a
fair show, and he'll stay with you
till the cows come home. IL you are
so mean he can't stay at home, don "
you go to your neighbors with hy'
pocritical snulfle and tell about your
boys ingratitude after you have
raised him.
