Show "At one time many people thought that a farm was fit only for the stupidest stu-pidest boy in the family. All the bright boys were supposed to have loo good a business or professional head to be wasted in farming, and they were sent to the city to become, riiauy of tbem, indifferent biiBiDess men and lawyers. Now it is recognized recog-nized that the old idea of happy-go-luoky, or rule-of-thumb farmiug is wrong and that any one who follows it will invariably be at the tail end of tbe proeessiou. In truth it requires brains to ruu a farm, but the man who has thern and who has the dis- positiou wins out and is the moat independent in-dependent man in existence, and he ought to be the most contented. |
