COUNTRY LIFE
IN MISSISSIPPI

Agriculture offers the Oldest and
finest profession known. To till the
soil and raise the livestock to eat
the feed that the farm produces,
to send out the food the other half
of the world requires is service
without which life itself could not
endure.-A Farm Wife.
/ love the farm and had rather
be known as a farm woman than
by any other name. / want to spend
every bit of my strength and in
telligence every day of my life max
ing farming more alluring. / find
the keenest zeal in the fight we
farmers must make, if we secure the
right future for our wOrk.-A Farm
Wife.
If you live in the country and are
ambitious for a better home, more
desirable community and greater
life, you must love the country; take
a keen interest in farm folks; admire
their sincerity, quick sympathies,
and sane and clean thinking. You
must find true enjoyment in the
cHdhSc VI Sco0oh' III Inv
colorings of the landscape, the skies,
the refreshing spring water, the
birds songs, the lowing herds; have
a feeling of nearness to the Creator
of all things good and beautiful.
Surely you must cooperate with your
neighbOrS.
If you win at your community,
county or state fair, don't boast; II
you lose, don't complain; spend your
while learning why you lost or won;
be determined to improve your ex-
hibit another year whether you won
or lost; thereby making your COM
munity, county and state fair OF
educational good for you as well as
for your neighbOrS.
