Worth All II Costs
BENZ. SIMONDS.

The effort that is being put forth
to get the young people interested in
tilling the soil and becoming produc-
ers of a part Of what they consume
is the finest movement that has bee@
inauguurated in q long time.
The success Of the work depends
greatly on the attitude of the parents.
If they will see the value of having
their boys and girls working to pre-
duce that which will be of real value
to themselves and others, and help
them to see the beauty and useful"
ness of that work, it will be long
stride toward making them useful
self-respecting citizens.
Too long have the young people
imbibed the idea that physical labor
was rather degrading, and because
they had received the blessing OF
some education, the tilling Of the soM
was "of the earth to earthly" for the
realm to which they belonged.
There is not the slightest doubt
thht the present output Of farm prod
ucts could be doubled if farmers could
obtain sufficient help. who would be-
willing to do the necessary work for
reasonable wages, good board and
good homes. We hear a great hue
and cry because some farmers do not
furnish good home comforts for their
help, but in the city, employers do
not furnish lodgings or board for their
help, and the difference in wages does
not more than balance the account,
to say nothing of the farm man hav-
ing horse and buggy kept for him.
Just so long as parents and teach
ery continue to inculcate into tho
minds OF the young people that farm
ing and kindred occupations are de-
: grading and that they are not obliged
to labor unless they wish, aAd then
only internationally and at irregular
hours, just 80 long will the existing
conditions prevail.
It is impossible to conduct farm OPP
erations on an eight-hour system. It
requires from two to four hours per
day to care for the stock on even q
small farm, and that leaves only foVr
hours to labor in the fields in the mid
die of the day, which in summer in
the hottest time to work, and the
neon-daV meal and rest takes an hour
er more Of that time.

There are Ga saloons in Louisville,

short of estimated expenses, and some
way must be found to increase the
revenue.
