Farming Opportunities.

In spite Of the cry that the hign
price OF land is driving young far
mers to some other occupation
there never waaa time when an am
bilious young country man had a
better chance than right now, de,
clares a writer nthe current issue Of
Farm and Fireslde." 1t is true
that farm lands and implements, the
the cost Of living and clothing aie
high, but there are some other things
on the other side of the sheet. Farm
products are selling at very high
rate, and farm labor is very scarce,
and farm opportunities are multi
lying every year
With his bare hands any young
man can lay the foundation of q
modern fortune in short time, and
do It under the most healthful and
inyigorating conditions. In other
words, there never was such de-
mand for good tenants as there is at
present-tenants, not farm hands,
or course there is steady cry for
farm hands, but young man should
seek a place as tenant instead of as
a laborer, for in the former there
are chances that the country is Just
waking up to all over the land.
Hundreds Of middle-aged men, la
every county in the older part Of
the farming community are waning
TO retire from active work eitheE by
moving OFF the farm or taking a
young man into partnership with
them. These men feel that they
have earned rest, yet there Is NJ
one to whom they can safely entruat
their business.
Their own sons have gone to the
cities or have settled on farms oi
their own, and the hired men they
are able to get are vexatlon to the
spirit in most instances. In despair
the farmer sells out and invests the
money in bonds or something else,
to be rid OF the care of the farm
and then moves to town. And right
lsre is where the ambitious young
man find his chance.

10 Get SQUARE eDal.

w c. Redfield, secretary of COM
,merce, has sent the following letter to
the editor OF Power Boating, indicating
his interest in power boats, and that
as head OF the department of COM
merce he would see that the little
fellows" got a square deal:
Il say that the proper principle to
set in making and enforcing the regu-
lations of the steamboat inspection
service seems to me to be that while
the rights and privileges and oppor-
tunities OF the steamboat and steam
ship interests shall have candid, full
and fair Consideration, yet the life OF
the smallest child or of the humblest
seaman is OF greater import than are
the profits of any transportation
company or of any individual,
The same feeling applies. in my
mind to the motor boat world. am
myself, as you know, a motor boat
man. AS such 1t has always been
possible to comply with the regula-
lions, and l have seen many occasions
of accident and injury arising from
failure to comply with them. OF
course. the little fellows" as you
call them, should get and will get a
square deal, but this leaves unsettled
the question what square deal' is
and to whom the square deal should
be extended, Candidly, he who, care
less Of rules or thoughtful OF saving
few dollars, puts his own life or
the lives Of others at risk by going
without lights or proper equipment
is himself giving no square DEAL"
either to himself8or to others. If the
spirit of compliance with the law pre-
walls, there should be little difficulty
with the regulations

A Woman Next Door
By WINIFRED BLACK.

T READ a brilliant story by
brilliant writer the other day.
Did you happen to read it, too?
II was about a woman who
lived down behind the tracks"
in a country town She was a
woman who Haunted the streets
in a gorgeous hat and expensive
gowns. She wore bangle brace
let's that jingled and rings that
sparkled, and igh-heeled slippers
and open worked" stockings.
and the. men grinned sheepishly
when she passed, and nudged
each other, and the women looked
the other way and pretended they
didn't even see her.
One day the woman from be
hind the tracks" bought a house
uptown and moved into it-a
neat. pretty little house, with a
garden and trees, and she dug in
the flower beds and watered the
lawn and put out hanging bas-
kets, and she went to market in a
little checked bingham, and she
looked wistfully over the fence
when the neighbors went by, but
nobody ever spoke to her at all.
One night a baby was taken
sick in the neighbOrhood and the
woman from behind the tracks"
saved its life. The next day she
stood out on her porch and wait
ed to see the baby's mother go by.
And the baby's mother went by
and did not see the woman from
behind the tracks" at all, and
the woman from behind the
tracks" went and sold her
little new house and the
garden and all, and went
back behind the tracks" to live
and all the people in the village
pursed their lips and said, She's
gone back-they always do
What Did She Expect?
Good story, wasn't 1t, and a
good slap at the narrow-mind-
ed little mother, who wouldn't
make friends with the woman who
had saved her baby's life?
We need a few such slaps as
that, we women; and yet
l wonder what the woman from
behind the tracks expected
when she bought the pretty lit
tie house and the garden, and
went to live among decent peo-
Pile?
Did she think they would get
out the band and meet and greet
her at the doorsteps, or what?
You choose your friends be-
cause you like them, and like
their kind-not because somebody
else thinks you ought to like
them.
II the woman from behind the
tracks" had come to the village
from somewhere else and no
body knew a thing about her, do
you think the neighbor women
would have liked her anyhow? I
don't.
She wasn't their kind; never
was, never could be. She be-
longed to a different world. and
every time she turned her over
blended head and every time she
opened her good humored. too
easily pleased mouth, and every
time she laughed her rather
coarse laugh, she would have told
what she was, and no woman of
any fineness of perception could
have been mistaken in her for a
minute.
No. l don't mean what she had
been. That isn't what would con-
Germ a kindly woman who was
trying to decide whether she
wanted her for a neighbor or not.
