that will be worth something to your

Men that are worth something TO

should like to see every farmer
boy become a good farmer. There is
no better occupation. The farm Offers
great advantages for success, and
farm life is a splendid life.
And 1t Is growing better as the
years 90 by. The boy who learns to
farm right today will be big man
tomorrow. He will have more ad'
vantages than the average business or
professional man.
Begin to farm on your own hook
while you are still a boy. Take up
some line of farming and work II
out. Make 1t pay. You can do 1t.
Your parents will help you to start

London.-A valuable reform which

the chapel is to provide a place to
which the poor can take their dead
