 merely booking on from the outside, is both extremely technical and exceed ingly hard. It. can't be learned in week, or it can't be done except by those whose muscles have been traind to it and whose palms have been cal loused by it. It calls for strength and endurance and a stoicism which come only from long and hard experiences.
 The idea that it can be successfully carried through by amateurs as a sort of vacation spurt, is one which would be amusing if it wasn't so irritating
 I think I have mentioned before this. the fact that quite number of city pa pers, which used to be either contemp- tuous or quite silent about farm diff. culties, have lately seemed to see a new light. I quite often note in their col unlnS recently, outbreaks of something closely allied to common sense, as ap- piled to farm questions. Take, for ex- ample, the following editorial from The Toledo Blade, which I commend to the reading of both farmers and wouId-be 'farmerettes," for the amusement of the former and the instruction of the latter:
 Numbers of city folk seem to think that if a covy of pretty stenographers, fetchingly dressed and none too prudish about bare knees, go into the fields at harvest time, why then there is no such thing as the hired hand problem.
 They are mistaken. The hired hands life may have been somewhat revised in recent years in the interest of his wages his sleep and the hours of his la bor. But we cannot see how it could have been altered greatly without alter ing the very nature of farm
 "A farm is a stubborn thing. It all ways wants to run itself down, It lays itself open to all the cussedness inher ent in weather, all the destructiveness in insect appetites and habits of propa gatipg. The man who has anything to do with operating a farm has to fight these things. He has to coddle reluctant food

is it?'' I hadn't said another word up to that time, being determined to show her that an old hayseed in dirty over alls was just as good as anybody else if not little better and answered, eourteously enough. but without any attempt at neighborliness of manner Twenty five cents a. dozen; one dollar and a quarter, all told" She paid it from a well-filled portmonnaie, and then asked Shall you have more next week?' "Yesm' I answered barring earthquakes and Injuns.
 She returned the next week; and; the week after that; and many other weeks. I came to know her better and found her not half bad sort after she had reached the stage where she felt she could unbend safely. On one of those lat CT trips she told me confdentially, that she liked to buy vegetables of me be- cause I wasn't all the time complaining that the weather or something else had spoiled my crops. Why you can't buy a carrot from one of the farmers over ] in -" said she, naming the town she was sumnering in, without having to hear half hours whimper that the weather's so bad or the bugs so plenty that they can't raise anything Why can't farmers raise stuff and sell it. the same as other folks make shoes or cloth and sell them?'
 Now. I've told all this inconseouential story just for the sake of those last twenty words. This highly educated re- ally intelligent city woman couldn't see why farmers shouldn't raise whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted it, just as readily and easily as costum- CT and shoe dealers supplied her with shoes and silks as she wanted them. It stirred her animosity against us, if we undertook to explain an enforced shoSt- age by blaming it on the weather or other outside influence. This meant to her that we were simply trying to hide our own shiftlesSness or incapaeity. She had no conception whatever of the absolutely controlling influence which such factors, utterly beyond human con- trol, exercise on farm crops. Her idea was that, if farmers would only show the same business energy which tan ners and weavers exhibit, they could produce corn and cauliflower just as cer- tainly and just as regularly as those fellows produce leather and cloth.
 We had by that time, estnbIEihed quite pleasant mutual understanding and I took the occasion, when she said something of this sort again, to do a little missionary work. I preached her quite a sermon on the difference between -man-made conditions and natural limi- tations; between the management of a loom driven by a steam engine in the same building and under the same cen tral control. and the management of a potato patch subject wholly to influences independent of the farmer and out of his hands
 I said to her: You first took to me because I had the corn you wanted, when you wanted it. and sold it to you without any ifs or ands. You've wrong ly credited me with a corn producing capacity which was only about one part due to my work and nine parts to good luck Blame the other fellow for the one part in which he failed-if you are sure he did fail in it-but don't blame him for the nine, parts of bad luck which he had. He really deserves no more

blame than I deserve credit"
 And then, as a wind-up instead of. a text, I quoted Paul may plant and Apollos water but God giveth the in crease" adding, And We can't either or both of us, change His decrees because they don't fall in with our convenience" :"
 She took it like a little Sunday school girl the Sunday before Christmas, and we've really been quite good friends, ever since. But her original attitude was rather typical l think. of that held by altogether too many city folks. Many of them go so far as to think and say that the same amount of enterprise and gumption and industry which is regular ly shown by city men, if exercised on farms, would result in an equally reg ular and certain production To this end they advocate the sending of city people out on to the farms in the hurry season to speed up things and take the place of any actual shortage of farm la bor.
 Especially amusing to. the. working farmer is the idea of the farmeFette, :" the city girl who in her fortnightly va cations is to do the work which the farm laborer has abandoned for high CT factory and shop wages. She is to have special camps, under charge of judicious chaperols and chefs, from which she is to be automobiled to spe- cially. suffering districts till she has cleaned things up, first in one, then in another, a--d finally, triumphantly kl all
 Considering that the hurry season on most farms begins somewhere in April with manuring, blowing, etc and continues till late October, with cultivat- ing and hoeing and harvesting, the pro posal seems trifie inadequate in point of time alone. Even if the farmer cite" were capable of the work, which she isn't, any more than is the average city man. For farm work, while it may seem simple and easy to those

plants He has to oppose his muscle and his intelligence to worthless plants which are ever trying to move in and assume possession. He has to make live stock more than worth the keep and that calls for such work as maintaining .fenc- es watching feed, providing medication. breaking and training. mendfng harness, sf lting, she;iringl milking, repairing barns and pens and a number of other businesses tc neglect any one of which might be fatal to the animal. There is the blowing, the burning. the fertilizing the spraying, the sowing, the cultivat- ing and the harvesting as outstanding duties. When other matters are not pressing the farm people must give thought and time and energy to stop ping leaks, greasing wagons, hunting up straying turkeys. hauling fuel and shoo- ing away agents for implement houses
 There is no one who can take the place Of a good farm hand except anothN CT one equally as good. Skyscrapers don't breed the species. Nor can all the art of the photographer and all the tailors who are gifted at shortening skirts to the advantage of scenery make city girls into the likeness of farm la bor"
 There are some farms of specialized farm work in which ''farmerettes, '' whether in ''blomerettes' or not, can and do help, somewhat. In my own gardens, am glad to get girls to pick peas and beans Two neighbors who go in for berries avail themselves of the same sort of help in berry picking times. Several others in the total ab- sence of other help have been glad to have wife or daughter ride the horse rake, during having.
 But I can't quite conceive the city girl on her vacation drawing out and spreading manure, or toiling behind the blow across stony fields; or steering wayward horse and jiggly-joggly cuIti- vator between intending rows of corn or

 An eternal source of mixed irritation and amusement to the working farmer is the snug and somewhat condescend7 ing attitude of city people towards his work and his hindrances.
 Once. some years ago, a Luxurious limousine drove into my lane and the lady within, rather imperiously beekon- ing me to its side, asked if I had any sweet corn to sell.
 The time was a little early for matur7 ed corn in this latitude and the season had been a hostile one. also. But as luck would have it, I had that spring planted my sweet corn on land especial

paralSsIne terror. she stared It him
as white-faced and immpbile as q mar
Bile statue. Stricken with concern for
her, he bent forward. Instantly her
cheeks flushed scarlet with maidenly
shame. She clutched wildly at her
loose hair and fed to the door. In a
twlnkling she was out In the hall, with
the door shut between herself and
Clinton.
He had not moved. For some time
he stood where she had left him. His
body was motionless, but It was evi-

Of almost violent emotions. Across
his face, in quick succession, passed
locks Of bewilderment. pity, delight,
tenderness. Last Of all came contri.

merged into resolution.
From the closet he brought out his
suitcase and the suit that he had worn
on his arrival in town. Next came Q
rummage through the dresser and
closet to restore to the suitcase the
articles that had been taken from It.
Some he could not fnd.
He dressed himself In the suit 80
neatly tailored by old Tillie, and
glanced around the room, preparatory
to closing the suitcase. The halrbrush,
lying on the floor where he had
dropped 1t, caught his eye. He picked
1t up and gazed at 1t several moments.
He then went to the mantel, where
stood the framed photographs of Ellen
and Amy.
When he returned to his suitcase
