CITY MANS IDEA OF FARMS
Intended WittlcIsms VIII Be Amusing
to Those Who 1.-Two In the Asrl-
cultural Districts.

Farms may be roughly divided into
two kinds-the gentleman's or non
paying farm and the common or gar
den farm. When you have saved up
enough money to keep you In your
old age buy a farm. Besides getting
rid OF your money death will come as
welcome relief-thus you will ac-
complish double purpose. The aban-
doned farm is form of entertainment
indulged in by many to whom faro,
horse racing and Wall street are not
exciting enough. Besides, just as In
human beings, no matter how low an
abandoned farm may have sunk there
1s always some good in it.
To rehabilitate an abandoned farm
and put 1t OH it's feet is a great pleas
ure. First, remove all the plumbing,
replacing it with gold-plated pipes and
belt line Of shower baths; after this
has been finished will be time enough
for you to imagine where the water
works are. You will usually find them
pleasantly situated at the other side
OF the county seat. BY going to the
local political gang and carrying one
or two elections you will eventually
get a stream of water running into
your pipes which will excite the envy
OF every one within reach of your
megaphone.-Life.'
