BACK TO THE FARMERS WIFE

Reformcrs who arc always preaching back
to the farm as the panacca for social and eco
nomic ills usually ignore the most important ex-
hbit in the case. That Is the wife Of the farmer,
especially in the north, where the drudgcry is not
done by hired help.
The typical, stay athomc, gcncralpurposc
housewife on the farm is the most pathetic figure
in American life She is the chief family servant.
Her duties extend through all hours CT the day,
and large part of the night When she has
raised up a family of sens and daughters, taken
care Of The home, aided her husband in sayiI-
a bank account which she is rarely privileged to
draw on in her own name, and is ready to enjoy a
few leisure years before grazing the family flu
neral. she has usually incapacitated hirself for al
most every form Of enjoyment, and fallen SO far
behind in culture, appearance, health and temper
ament that she is virtually without companionship.
She has had no time to keep up with her read
ing, her music, her early accomplishment. Her
form is bent and misshapen from labor and i'll
ness. Her face bears no resemblance to that of
the girl who married her husband and her hands
are as rough and gnarled as the scrub-oaks in the
pasture field
She has fulfilled noble mssion-given herself
to others unstinhngly and without regret-but the
result speaks for itself in hundreds of thousands of
farm homes-not all of them the poorer classes,
either-hroughout the United States. and to
more pronounced extent throughout Europe
The picture can not be overdrawn, because
words inadequate to the reality Of course.
1t may be said, such life is not necessary. Farm
life could be made very pleasant and agreeable TO
all members of the family And young couples
settling down to make their fortune from the earth
always expect to prove exceptions to the rule as
they have it exemplihed But could" and
should merely the 6re-escapes of the cor
nered reforner. 1t is what is" that counts, and
until the back-tc-the-land advocate can point to
actual condition on the farm superior to those pre-
valhng in other vocations, there is not much use
10 lament the perversty of men and women who
prefer to let others enjoy those blessings.

WHY PROVIDE DELAY

While the Telegram is in accord with the gen.
eral principles Of former Governor Gichrists con-
sttutional amendment for revision of legislative
apportionment, there are few points in that con-
nection which seem to admit of improvement.
In the first place, as this paper has pointed out
before, there necessity of putting off the APP
portionment until another legislature meets. It
can be incorporated in tho resolution for the
amendment voted on at the regular election, be-
come effective at once, and special elections can
be held before the legislative session, thus giving

THE PEST

When winters done its dirty worst, and verna
bree2es blow, the dandeon is the first of bloom
ing things to grow; it calmly rears its yellow
head as soon there's thaw, and it has often
times been said there ought to be law. The
grass that cost such toll and care grows not

bare save for the yellow pest And man sur
veys Ills freckled lawn, and heaves a string of
signs, and mutters low. so help me, John what
ever's lovely dies; the costly plants I bought
last year, killed by frost and snow, but all
around me- far and near, the dandeions grow
TIE daisies were too good to last, that were my
hope and pride; my rose trees persisted in the
blast my pink victrolas died: they withered in
the storm kings breath, they could not keep
alive, but where my tulips died the death the
dandeffons thrive. All, woe is me-" says Mr. Man.
this life is full Of stings; it seems to be Dame
Natures plan to swat the lovely things. The
good and useful man will die, and leave the town
IN tears and some old cheap and noxious guy

the grass is dead and gone the dandelions grow"

TIE CURTAIN RISES

Tomorrow will mark the opening OF the 1921
session CT the Florida legislature an event always
looked upon as being of great Importance because
to the legislators are committed powers that mean
much for the veal or woe of the state In all prob
ability this coming session will, in many respects,
be like its predecessors. yet the changing times
bring changing responsibilities and open up fresh
avenues of service in behalf Of the people. There
are two things that would seem to be worthy of
early consideration and enactment. the eradication
of the cattle tick and some plan whereby taxes
will not be increased but, that more money shall
be secured through proper distribution of the
present tax burden. In ether words if the begis-
lature catch up with tM tax dodger it will
render a real service and enable Florida to do
things seemingly impossible because of lack
of funds Then there would be no more starved
state universities, no fear of having to close down
the public schools and sufficient to build roads in
every county where needed

but it must be borne in mind that the larger the
basis of representation the more room there is for
injustice and inequality
Provision should be made for general redis-

makes little difference which-and the legislature
should be given authority to increase the basis of
representation. as the state grows, so as to keep

ED. LAMBRIGHT, POSTMASTER

In commenting on the banquet rendered the
Florida Press Association at 7 ampa last Friday
night the Evening Telegram stands convicted of
having omitted mention of the POSTMASTER There
obvicus is penalty sufficiently severe to meet
the ofense nor punishment too great to fit the
crime. The only consolation to be found comes
from realization that Postmaster E. D. LAM
bright is himself Journalist, for the time being
allowing his newspaper training and unequaled
talents writer and editor to be temporarily set
aside while he fills an important post for Uncle
Sam. Some day the shifting tides Of politics will
inevitably permit him to return to his true love,
that place where his heart and his interest really
lie, that sacred shrine, an editors chair May it be
that his beloved Florida can still claim him as her
own. All of which is preliminary to the simple
statement that Ed Lambright was POSTMASTER Fri
day night at the Ell Pasaje and that no citizen Of
Florida could have more honorably or more ac-
cepIabIy filled that position.
