There is much deploring OF the fact
that so many boys leave the farm for
other occupations. Well. some OF
them should. In nearly every family
there are dlversitles OF gifts, and
among the farmers children, there
viii probably be found one or more
who are clearly intended TO be me-
chanics, doctors. lawyers. teachers
ministers or writer's. The boys who
should remain on the farm are those
whose natural apitudes are for agri-
culture, stock-ralsiag and a rural life.
Nevertheless II is true that there are
thousands of boys In the cities who
should be In the country.
