THE HIRED MAN.

There has been much discussion in
some of the farm papers recently re-
gardlng the conditions of the average
hired man, and much that has been
published to show that he is a greatly
abused individual. is in my opinion,
wrong. AS d rule l think the farm
laborer is better off than any other
unskilled workman. It is true that
mer, but taking the year through his
those of the city workman. while his
physical comfort is much greattr.
The charge that most hired men are
absurd according to my judgment
based or many years of observation
and actua experience. The average
farmer in this country lives well. be-
cause he can afford to and because he
wants to. His table is very much
above the average Of the table Of the
city workman. Everything that comes
to it is fresh. clean and nearly always
we'll cooked. AS to the quantity,
most farmers are open to the criticism
of supplying too much.
The hired man. except on very
large farms where many men are
employed shares his employers table
and every other comfort of the home
life.
If he is a man OF character and
good habits, he is naturally respected,
not only by the farmer, but by his
friends and neighbors and enjoys so
ciety just as much as any one in the
ne~ighborhood.
