STICK TO THE FARM.

With winter coming on, and the

They would taste Of the greater

And therein Turks the most
haunting peril that oonfronts our
country today, for the nation 10
dependent upon tho farmer.
From the soil of tho farms must
come the produce which sustsins
life and body for the count

And year by year young men Of
the country are leaving the farms
to seek their fortunes in the hu-
man bee hives.
And each one who forsakss the
farm reduces the producing caps.

constantly increasing population
cslls for greater farm production.
Young men of brains are needed
on the farm. Their presence there
means much to their oonntry-s
thousand times more than they
realize.
The city offers but one chance
in q hundred for success, for every
large city is already over populs-
ted. and for every job worth the
having there are many applicants.
Today, a. We write this article,

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. %. -
Following an inquest to be held
Tuesday on the death of Mrs. Dor
othy Danhauser johnson of Ia
coma, a bride of a week, who was
shot down and killed by Abraham
Pepper, a Tacoma lace salesman,
the authorities plan a preliminary
murder trial to be held at the bed
side of the murderer In the Gen.
trail Emergency hospital. Pepper
withstood his operation yesterday
when physicians removed the bull
let and began treatment of the
fractured skull, with good fOrti-
tude. He was weakened by the
operation, but rallied before
evening and today was reported
to be on the road to a speedy re-
cOyery.
The funeral of Mrs. Johnson
was held yesterday afternoon, but
Sidney Lee Johnson of Tacoma,
the unfortunate bridegroom, had
become SO i'll from the effects of
the mental strain following his
brides murder that he was under
the care Of physicians and could
not attend. Although no relatives
wexs present at the funeral. the
undertaking company's chapel
wp filled with an idly curious
crowd. many of them deliberately
gowned women of the San Fran
cisco society set.
II. A. Kaufman of Chehalis,
Wash, partner of the late Her.
man Klaber, and step-father of
Mrs. Johnson, arrived yesterday
with his daughter, half-sister to
the murdered bride. 1t was while
Johnson was talking to Kaufman
of the murder that he collapsed
in Mysteries and was forced to
take to his bed under a physi-
clans care.
