A Wise Old Farmer.

A retired farmer and his good
wife called on us the other day, and
in reply to our questions, the farmer
told us how they had solved the prob
lem of retiring. He has about two
hundred acres of land. He has rent
ed his farm, reserving twenty acres.
On this he built a house, and has
some choice COWS, some chickens, a
pig or two, some good horses He
turns over the entire management of
his farm to the tenant, helping him
as he can when help is needed, and
asking help if he needs it, SO they
drink their milk, eat their butter,
live off the garden and poultry yards.
look after the COWS and chickens and
pigs and horses and attend their
church. He was glad to tell us that
his church had put up sign that it
is community church. A happier
looking couple we have never met.
Why is not this the ideal way of
solving the problem of retiring,
rather than moving to town? These
people have not had to break off the
old associations and leave the old
associates They are living sane
life, and the only sane life for farm
ers to lead-among those they have
known for long years. The husband
is not burdened' with heavy labor.
He can lead his own life in his own
way. He is interested in the school
as well as the church; and is inter-
ested in the society to which he has
been accustomed. He knows all the
young people in his community, and
they all know him.
How much better this is than
moving to town among strangers and
being regarded as unprogressiVe and
a hindrance to the progress of the
town. We don't say this; we are
simply voicing the common opinion
of tOwnsmen as to a great number of
retired farmers--nOt all. II every
farm err would do this, the country
school would not be sterilized, the
church would not be weakened; Soc
ial life would be maintained, and
men would live longer and be hap
pier The time comes when the man
on the farm must do less work; when
he feels that the management of the
farm is a burden. He can then re-
tire on his own farm, among his own
friends, and live out his days, which
he is not likely to do if he makes
such sudden change in his environ
ment, and such radical one.
This is not the only man who has
followed our advice in this. They
drop in on us from time to time,
simply to tell us that they have
adopted our suggestions, and how
happy they are because they did So

DO Not Kill Blackbirds..

Does anybody know that by killing

to scare away the blackbirds that
roost in your trees. w. R. Banks

of Importance to the public to know
that the minimum fine for killing
a blackbird under the recent federal

is quite nuisance to have the black
birds sroost near your house, but we
must cease to kill our birds or this
