Why ennnot tho funniT to-tiny cntur
th- labor market iiml bid miCLvmfiilly
BtfV.nst others who aro lonklnjf fur
hcl ? Th fact is tho most iinskillnl
lalnir will leave the farm uml ( to
public workn, perfnrnilnjj the ni' iincst
drudifory rather than follow tho plow.
It may bo Unit eoiiio d.'hplso tho plow
but that is not tho main reason. A few
days Rtfo a ynung man who whs reared
on tho farm but who I now working ns
a track hand on the railroad remarked
that he mueh preferred tho farm and
hoped to ifot baek to it, but at precent
ho would work for the corporation
because it paid better.
For doing the hard work of helping
to koep'a railroad track in repair in a
lonely mountain pass ho is getting
$40.00 por month. His work requires
musclo only. The modern farm net da
mueh more than that, yet no farm In
this section could pay 1 10 per month or
anywhero near it for muscle only.
The farm to-day needs intelligence
and skill equal to that of tho factory or
the counting room.' Let no one smile
until ho has worked a season on u well
equipped farm. Tho farmer can ill
afford to hitch a team of high priced
horses to a costly and complicated
machlno and then put a boor on tho
seat to drive. Yet he must do it and
for some time past many have been glad
ti get tho boor.
Few will contend that this Is as It
should bo nor must it continue to bo so.
When tho farmer gets a full apprecia
tion of tho Importance and dignity of
his calling and a clear conception of
w hat is his by right it will not ba so.
Tho grange is taking the lead on giving
trila knowledgo and is organizing the
power of tho farm, not to trample on
the rights of others, but to battle for
'simple justice When jivtice is secured
the farm will be able to pay as much
for a man to feed and care for a valuable
team and run a blndor as the railroad
can pay for an engineer to haul the
products of the farm to market.

School Entertainment.
The program rendered on tho 12th of
April by the Dean and Rathmol schools
was a grand success and much could be
said in praise of the teachers whose
patience and work brought about such
a degree of proficloncy on the part of
the scholars in drills, etc. Miss Lenk-
erd's class In the callsthcnic drill was
almost perfect and Miss Lenkerd would
feel flattered could sho hear the praise
of our people. And pruiso for MIsb
Wilson's classes In the rainbow drill
does not fall short of tho calintln-iiie.
Tho patriotic and military drill by
Clawges and Montgomery were grand,
and we now have a nice littlo company
of soldiers. Tho chorus and recitations
were above the average and tho parents
of the school children wish to thank
the teachers for their efforts.
The recoipts will bo equally divided
between the two schools. Dean school
will buy a bell and the Rathmel school
will expend their money In books, etc.

Did you'ever think that rents, or rental value was as important an item of value in a build
ing as the materials entering into the construction thereof, and that rents can be insured ?
We can write you a policy on the rents of your building in the same, company and at a lower
rate than the building. It would pay you to investigate Rent Insurance.
