TINE FARM AND THE FAMILY.

Farming in America, as ordinarily
carried on. is not a business bat a
mode Of life. It has been 30 from
the beginning Speaking broadly
farming Is the most normal and me-
ccssary mode Of life known in AM
erica. 10 direct II from this, It's pri-
mary purpose, TO make 1t primarily a
money-making industry, would be ir-
rcparablc loss 10 the country.
Farming Is the one great industrial
occupation In the United states that
both nourishcs children and makes
them Of economic advantage In a
series Of generations, no occupation
that does not make tho child an ass
set will continue 10 raise The child
Because the American farm both
makes child labor profitable and the
child healthy and self-roliaht. the
American farm rs preserving the Am
erican race All American cities
have to borrow heavily farm chill
drcn in order to keep up their cen
suB figures Also the business Of the
cities must largely depend upon
ON farm.raisod boys for efficiency
and proper initiative
In the long run, It is of no parlicu-
lar advantage to any person to own

see TO 1t that the laws enacted are
reasonably good and that public du-
ties are discharged faithfully, they
can not remain In control for long.
But as the education of New Mex
leo extends, there VIII be purcr and
better politics We can no more got
ahead Of the game here than China
or Mexico can have republican gov
unmcnt whom neither country is pre-
pared for H. New York city and
Chicago are examples Of the sort Of

an governments whore the majority
Of the voters are not educated 70 the
duties OF citizenship
As in Chicago and New York. most
Of the reformers of New Mexico are
worse morally and mentally than the
men they would overthrow It was
Tammanys greatest boss who said
when Il Tammany man became so bad
that the organization had 10 cast him
cut he always could make good
living by becoming a roformer and
attacking Tammany. The. lesson
comes home to New Mexico with pc
Guitar force.
We have deficiencies and lmita-
tions. but there is the greatest reas-
on for hope that THINGS win become
better In New Mexlco-certainly they
will become better lust as fast as we
give the people more education.
