quoted to discourage such people from
casting their fortunes in with the
country. The cases where the city
man and his family have been success
fully transplanted to the country are
too numerous to warrant the assump-
ton that it cannot be done. At the
same time it must be admitted that
there are difficulties in the way. The
easiest transition is made by the coun-
try boy who has grown tired Of city
life. He is used to the ways of the
farm. and it will be short task for
him to learn the new methods and take
up the furrow at the point where he
left it few years ago.
For the man who has lived all his
life in the city the proposition is
altogether different and much more
difficult. He has all the ways Of the
new life to learn. He is unused to
country life and country customs.
Worst of all. he is unused to country
| methods. If man listens too cred
