How strangely the idea persists
that less intelligence Is required to
succeed on farm than In the city!
Why should any one suppose that
the man who makes blunder after

country and show the farmers how
to raise bumper cropsl Perhaps IL
Isl because the country visitor t.
the city. being unfamiliar with
much that he sees there. Is sc,
down as "slow" and stupid, says
the Youths Companion.
The city.born visitor to tn,
country impresses the farmer IN
the same way. and often with bet
ter reason; but that view Of tn.
matter he seldom sees. In point Of
fact. the city worker Is essential,
. specialist. The successful farmer.
on the other hand. must have q
practical knowledge Of more things
than the city man dreams Of. and
versatility beyond his comprehen
sion.
II was urged not long ago, at
meeting Of the New York Child
Welfare committee. that for stupid
boys who seem to have little chance
orsuccess 10 the city. there would
be q better. prospect of making

faStns; but the plan met with

The number Of country boys who
succeed in the city Is beyond
reckoning. The cities would be Q,

succeeded, and would probably b.
