''Of -the discontetit'. - which exists
among the young People, in regard
to;agrieultural life, the great cause
ikWhat a writer in Scribner's Month-
Vso aptly terms the "social lean
u4ss" or social starvation - of Amen-
Can agricultural life:
;The American farmer, all his
planning and all his has
never made provision for life. ' lie
has only considered the means of
getting a living. Everything out
side of thisa:everything ;relating to
society and culture-2---bas been stead
ily. brnored., He gives his children
the advantages schools, not recog
nizing the faet, that; these very ad
vantages call) into life a new set of
social wants. A bright,' well educa
ted family in a lonely farm-iouse, is'
very different material from a 'fain
ily,brought up in ignorance. An
American farmer's., children Who
haVe had a few terms at a neighbor
ing academy resemble in no degree
tld children of the European peasant.
They. come home with new ideas and
new wants, and if they find no oppor
tunities for !their 'satisfaction, they
will be ready, on reaching their ma
jority, to Ilythe farm and seek the
city.
' If the American farmer wishes to
keep his children near him, he must
learn the difference of living and get
tin;; a living and we mistake him
and his grade of culture altogether
if he does not, stop over this state
ment and wonder what we mean by
it." To get a living to make money,
• to tecome!"Pnehanded;” this is the
whole of life to agricultural multi
tudes, discouraging in their num
beo to contemplate. To them there
is io difference between living and

hend the, difference between living

satisfied with the latter alone. Eith•
er t 4; farmer's children-Must be kept

AYliatlis the remedy ? How shall
farmers inanage to keep their chil

cOttrage intkiK of
.unnecessary. , —nav,

agricultural society attractive. Fill
thk farm-house with books and per
iodicals., Establish central reading
roOins, or neighborhood clubs. En-
Conrage the social meetings of the
young. Have concerts, lectures,
Usury

tablish a bright, active, social life,
that shall give some significance to
latior. Above all, build as far as
poS,,sible in villages. It is better
to :go a mile to one's daily' labor,
than to place one's self a mile away
from a" , neighbor. The isolation of
AMerican.l'arm life is the great curse
of that life, and it falls upon the wo
men with a hardship that trig, men
