Day Of the Gentleman Farmer.

AS result partly Of the widening
influence Of our agricultural colleges
and partly Of numerous cooperating
agencies, new set of ideals Is being
created with regard to country life.
The nation as whole, in fact, Is
making a re-estimation Of rural life.
With the coming of dear lands, city
people have awakened to new In
terest in country affairs and new
respect for country inhabitants.
There is before US in the United
States the opportunity to develop per.
haps the finest type Of rural civiliza-
ton that the world has ever known.
The ownership of land in past ages
has always been most honorable, but
the working of 1t has been regarded
generally as degrading. The actual
farmers, equipped with their poor,
pitiable instruments. and condemned
to unceasing and disheartening toll,

USEFUL WAR RELIC

When Pietro Sanchez returned from

Pasta but one trophy of the war

Pietro was an honest, sturdy black
smith. He had fought just as he set
tires on the wagon wheels or shod q

had been the leader OF the company
which drove the marauding gang OF
Rivolla, the bandit, out Of the dis

adopt the great field piece as SOU

days..
The blacksmith shop was located on
the topmost bluff overlooking the
broad Rio Brazos, commanding the
valley for miles. Just at its edge
Pietro had set the cannon.
1T is memento, monument and
trade sign" said Pietro. There it
shall remain as a record, reminder
and sign manual OF the trade of the
anvil"
But, neighbor," spoke a fear-mind-

of peace. Why remind Of war;"

Pietro stubbornly. who can say

not tell Ninez as he babe her good
night, but he knew there was some
foundation for her words.
Others as we'll were In the secret,
but were not spreading 1t to alarm the
quiet town.
Thus, 1t was known to many OF the
old guard that Rivolla was once again
on raid. If his band was of any
numerical strength he might invade
Modiva. Otherwise, he would scarce
ly venture. Each night for a week
some one Of the old war company had
watched the river and its opposite
shore. 1t was from that direction RI
VOLTA would come, If at all.

Without disturbing or alarming any
