Continued from First pane. households; and yet it is a great truth that woman do not possess all the goodness, the common sense and right judgment in the world and an equally great truth that men do have lofty and noble ambitions and do achieve great things in life, alone, free and inde pendent, except as they are or may be indebted to God. For some time it has been popular for public speakers and writers to eulo gize the mercy, and goodness and greatness of mothers; but the minister, lecturer, teacher or writer, who places her qualities ahead of the father's ia attempting to preach an untruth that has ruined many a family. A woman's intuition may be great but it never kept her from making poor marriages and many bad bargains, j Some might ask what has home life, j sociability and education to do with i making a living on a rented farm of ordinary size in an ordinary back country district, but the inquirer will not be the well-to-do farmer, nor the well-to-do merchant, nor the well-to-do laboring man. The thrifty, honest, progressive citi- < zen never questions the blessings of in- | telligent, upright living, and it is one i of the hardest things in the world to ! understand, why the most unsuccessful men are the strongest in their belief in dreams and luck, and the loudest in their scoflings at marriage, honesty, re ligion, education or laithful service and good will to employer or assistant. These things are as neccery to our life as the filling of the stomach or the expanding of the lungs The best farms, the best factories and the best men in the world, are those in sight of and under the influence of the best ministers, the best schools and the best women in the land; while the poorest farms and the most unreliable men stay away from the church and the school house and are under the influence of ignorant and indifferent women. Now those are God's truths and are universal, applying equally to the farmer, manufacturer or merchant, to the rich man and to the poor man alike. Three fourths of the farms'are owned by the men living on them, so are a majority of the houses in a town owned by the people who live in them. Tenants on a farm do not always pay the rent but the percentage of deadbeat tenants is much larger in the town than on the rented farm. The fact that one-i'ourth of the farms in the country nre rented and have been for some time, is evident that most of the rent is paid, and the fact that three-fourths of the farms are owned by the men living on them is evidence that some men can not only pay rent but in time can pay for and own the whole farm. It is also evident that if we don't know how deep to plant our potatoes; don't know the best kind of fertilizer to use on them; don't have the best laying chickens, and don't have the best dispositioned and best pulling horses; if we don't know the cost and value of good country roads; if we can notappreciate the blessings of a friendly smile, or know the worth of a hearty laugh; if we are not able to so forecast the weather as to permit tho proper harvesting of our crops, I am afraid we will not realize much of a bank account over and above the rental of our farm. Education may be to know the why and how to do things, but true educa tion is to learn to do and to use things Let us fully determine to combine intelligence with our energy and brains; let us realize that we can gradually grow in brains and common sense just as we grow in age and size or knowl edge. Let us realize that common sense is an orchard, which, to be valuable, must be planted with good seed and have all suckers and idle thoughts constantly trimmed away. Let us appreciate the efforts too, of the State Board of Agriculture, let us try to realize the benefits of farmers' institutes and let us show our appre ciation by our attendance and interest, and then, I venture to say, the per centage of discontented and shiftless farm tenants will grow gradually less. Now just one word in conclusion; the best crop to grow on a farm or any where else is not a balance in the bank. To have a good son is more satisfactory than to have a good bank ac count, and statistics show that the so called poor farmer's boy marches step by step past the city laboring man's son, onward and upward past the rich man's son, and stands to-day in the majority on the foremost platform of our national life.
