WORK OF FARMERS SOCIETIES
Good Done by Agricultural orsanlza-
tIons to Harmonize and Lift So
cIal Condition Of People.

Those who look only on the surface,
or who have never got in the stream
OF progress, often assert that we have
too many agricultural societies, or
that they do but little good. The fact
is. our agricultural societies are ma
king such continued progress, and do
their work SO silently, that the most
active members do not realize how
much they have done. writes Robert
H. Cahoon in Farmers Voice and
Rural Outlook. How many stop to
ask the question. what would be the
condition Of agriculture today If there
hai beeu formed no agricultural So
cieties?" Alasl How few even think
of it.
When agricultural societies were
formed and exhibitions held where
the products of the farm were placed
side by side for comparison, It stirred
up desire to secure the best breeds
of animals and the best varieties of
fruits and vegetables; every portion
of the globe was carefully examined
to find the best specimens of animals
and vegetables, When these were col
itClcu tokttutT anu tAiibikCa W ti~
side of what we had been producing
the people saw the difference, and
quickly introduced the improved pro-
ductions on their own farms; SO that
today improved vegetables and fruits
are SO widespread that the poorest
man can every day place on his table
better fruits and vegetables, and In a
greater variety than could the richest
monarchs of Europe hundred years
ago.
BY comparing the products of our
farms at the annual fairs. desire has
been created for higher cultivation.
and thus gradually the farmers have
abandoned the methods of their fa-l
theirs for methods which careful inves-
tigation has proved to be easier and
productive OF better results.
The farmers Institutes. the boards
Of agriculture and the grange all owe
their existence to agricultural socie-
ties. And the social condition OF the
people has been harmonized and lifted
to a higher level, because the societies
have established platform SO broad
that all classes can gather upon It
and Join hands.

IMPRESSIONS

When Life's first page has been printed
And the colors have thoroughly dried,
When the chases OF steel have been pol
ished
And stacked on the floor side by side,
We shall then take a long intermission
And the blessings OF. sleep We shall
WOO,
Till Mans Friend, the Master Mechanic
Shall give us some new work to do.
And those who hvae made gooNimpres.
sions,
Although in poor, feeble way.
viii then go up higher Tor lessons
They neglect while yet in the clay;
And the Master aware nf our Weakness,
Won't impute to US all the blame.
III we fail to quite copy his imprint
AS children OF one common name.
Let us strive, then, to make good impress
sions,
For these are things that survive
In the hearts OF the friends left behind
us
Like nectar obtained from the hive:
For, when life's last page has been
printed,
Full many type will not show,
But the Master, in infinite goodness,
Will make perfect all letters, l know.

not the cheap cabbage leaf cigars usually palmed off
