creed of the Farmers Union,
as we'll as your leaders, have
seemed to unduly stress the
value of agricultural education and
of special training, it is for the SIM
pie reason that they are back of sue
cess of life on the farm.
I do not unqualifiedly approve of
the average agricultural college in
this country, for the reason that 1t
teaches too much from the textbook
and not enough from the furrow. But
gradually we are improving the
grade of the agricultural college,
and I hope, with your cooperation,
eventually to rouse the American
people to the Importance of the un-
dertaking.
I do not disparage or ridicule the
ecstatic assertions of the beauties
of farm life,'' or the economic and
financial independence of life on the
farm" such as is shot at us every
day in the magazines and the news
papers.
But insist that in the main such
rhapsodies are written by revolving
chair theorists, who need to have a
few ideas blasted out of their heads
and a few others blasted in, before
their preachments can be of real
value
To be a good farmer requires as
much brains, as much application,
as much mixture of grey matter and
muscle as it does to be good sales
man, good doctor, good lawyer
or a good clerk.
Every man is not born to be
good salesman, a good doctor, law
yer or clerk That fact is generally
recognized and acted upon.
But know of mighty few men
who are not positive they would be
good farmers, and who think that all
that is necessary is to stick hoe in
the ground, pray for rain and harvest
the crop.
If you will analyze the great drift
from the farm to the city with a
view to checking it in your locality,
you will find that a great percentage
of it is composed of the farm fail
ures.
These young men and middle-aged
men had the common delusion. They
thought farming was "easy." They
find it isn't easy And they go to
the city, either to deteriorate into
idlers, or to work several times as
hard than if they had cultivated their
brains instead of their dissatisfaction
and remained on the farm.
To the man who really wants to
farm in America, and who is willing
to give to it the concentration, the
faith, self-sacrifice and the energy he
would give to preaching or to run
ming a trolley car or dry goods
business-the land will return fair
dividend, and such freedom as makes
hiff able to sffile at panics and the
whims of an exacting or unscrupul-
GUS employer.
| ask, therefore, that all members
of the Farmers Union apply the
yard-stick to themselves.
If you are tempted to leave the
farm for the city, just remember
that in order to make a decent liv-
ing, to feed and clothe and educate
your children, you've got to work
twice AS hard as is needed to do all
this, and more, in the country.
You needn't take my word for it.

THE BARE
 FOOTED BOY.

What has become of the old
 fashioned barefooted boy? The boy of long ago who never thought of
 parting his hair in the middle, who
 would not have been caught with a cogiareete in his pocket and never even knew what a pair of toothpick
 pointed shoes were for he had only one pair of boots year and usually
 bought those with ginseng or nick
 ory nuts which be gathered at odd
 times. He, the old-fashioned boy, may have been freckled faced but he knew how to grub. pile brush and
 blow corn. His stock of slang was
 short of that today but he was
 always handy to go after the COWS and do odd jobs about the house and his parents did not have to cut the kindling and milk the COWS while Johnny slept till breakfast We sup pose it is natural enough of boys to be different but we do love to think of those old-fashioned boys we used to know They could stack straw and cut hay and were so handy about sending to the spring. It is true they had to stay at home one half of the five months free school term, but when they did go they were first chosen in the old.fashioned spelling bees and they would sit up nights to get through Rays 3rd part of Arithmetic and then would go to mill on Saturdays or get up enough wood to run the family the following weeks. The lads nowadays are not the flat back sturdy fellows we used to know breathing the pure country air with but few clothes on, not knowing what suit of under clothes was, with muscles tough and barefooted heels that woail almost knock fire from the stone. No. the boys of today are different. They have to be kept in like the hothouse plants and petted if the teacher so far forgets himself as to use an old field hickory in case they disobey.
 Not only have the old time boys passed away but the old statesmen are fewer and the old sturdy farmer upon whom you could rely so i'm plicitly and whose brain and brawn made the country a power They, too, are not so plentiful and have passed along with the old time country boy. May the Lord give us more of the old time boys whose free hearted unselfishness made life a joy. They were treasurers then, they would be so now. Teach the joys to work hard and love taat old time honesty that was far from the spirit of graft.-Exchange.
Bisbee daily review., 1910-12-16
A MAJORITY OF BLATHERskiTEs
 Phoenix Democrat-)

it would take more than a sneak ing printing graft to lead the Demo crat to insult public intelligence by continued assertions of the angelic statesman-like qualities of the late constitutional convention. The truth is, the majority of that gathering var a narrow-minded, ignorant, dis reputable aggregation and the peo pie of Arizona realize this fact.
 Never before in the history of Ari, zona has such a gang been called together for any legitimate business. If the Democrat had not put the fear of God into the hearts of that corporation, purchased crowd. they would have made a constitution that would have disgraced Arizona for, ever. The people of Arizona want statehood; the corporations of Ari- zona are opposed to it: and the cor porations elected and controlled the convention. It was only fear that kept these hirelings within the bounds of common decency. That is all there was in it.
 Had the Democrat lauded these ignoramuses, it could have had a printing contract But no self-re- specting paper could afford to call such fellows as Parsons, the loud mouthed blatherskite from Cochise: Winsor and Short of Yuma. and many others we will mention later on. as statesmen" and patriots without violating all the rules of decency. These men are a dis. grace to the democratic party and Lhe territory in general as constitu- ion makers, and no amount of slob- Der will ever make the Democrat ;ay otherwise.
