Farmer on Farm Life.

Friend. Neb., Oct 15.--To the
editor of The Bee: In regard to
the woman who wrote about farm
ers and labor. she must think a
farmer can shake any tree on the
farm and the dollars will fall off of
IT, Some of these city chaps that
come out to work on the farm never
saw a pillow In their lives and expect
high wages as an experienced man.
As to wages, / think a hired man
getting from $50 to SIS a month
ard clothes washed and board and
room equals about 500 a month.
which l think is as much as any
farmer can stand. A farmer can
not work by factory time, either.
He wouldn't get much done IL he
would work eight hours a day.
She says farmers are kicking
about high cost of living, but
think she is mistaken. Mostly the
city people are doing that. 1t is not
so much HI. C. L. for the city people
as it is the cost of living high.
Farmers are the only people that
live within their means. I'd like to
sell some pigs for % cents pound.
She must remember that hogs are
Ii to Is cents a pound at the pres
ent time. A farmer doesn't raise
hogs on wind and water. either. 1t
takes about nine months to raise
a pig to weigh 200 pounds or over.
We do not get our corn for nothing,
either. When the pigs were %
cents a pound corn was s1.75 to 50
a bushel. 1t costs something to
feed them. When a farmer brings
a load of wheat to town the city
people think he is making fortune.
hut they don't count what he has to
do before he has that load of wheat
to sell.
There are not many farmers rid
ing in super-sixes that l know Of. If
some people would save before they
get to the bottom of their purses.
they could ride in super skies, too.
It's too late to save when the last
dollar is gone The farmer Is the
only person on earth that hasn't
made a strike yet. If the city peo-
pie think the farmers are getting
rich, let them come out on the farm
and try it. They would soon find
out it isn't only hauling produce to
town. A. FARMER.

CHAPTER II.
Rilly Under the Smell.


BILLY is under the spell of the
sad, sad violin. Hoo. Hoo! Now we
are lost" hooted Judge Owl as Billy
galloped away on the back of Balky
Sam to the rescue of Penelope, the
maid in the tower.
Peggy feared that what Judge
Owl said was true. Billy had gone
to the aid of Penelope, it is true, but
he had gone slowly and reluctantly
and not at all with his usual zest t.
help anyone who was in trouble
And while he galloped away he KEEP,
looking mournfully back, as if the
lure of the violin was still strongly
drawing him.
There was some odd charm about
the playing. Peggy felt it herself
1t made her feel blue and lonely
and before she knew it, tears were
streaming down her face, and she was
sobhing as if her heart would
! break.
Seeing this, Johnny Bull began tc
howl; Lonesome Bear growled and
groaned: Billy Goat bleated; Rollo
the monkey, chartered and
screamed; Judge Owl screeched;
King Fisher ratified: Bittern creaked
like an old pump, and all the other
birds shrieked their loudest. 1t was
all very weird and depressing.
Peggy quickly noticed that when
this racket drowned out the wall OF
the violin, her spirits rose and the
ache went out Of her heart. Then
as the birds and animals got out OF
breath and their noise grew faint
enough for the violin to be heard
again, her spirits went down like the
mercury in the thermometer on a
chilly day.
How awful for any person to
make other persons feel so sad for
no cause at ALL" she sobbed, and

the maid from the tower. Her face
was all smiles, and she waved her
hand gayly at Peggy and the ami
mails and the birds. Billy, too, ap-
parently had forgotten the sad call
of the violin, and was shouting with
gleC as he urged Balky Sam to a
faster and faster pace.
The din hid the noise of the sad
violin, so Peggy smiled back at
Penelope, being glad when she heard
the gay laugh Of the prisoner of the
tower.

Penelope, who thought that all the
racket was in her honor. 1T makes
