Cne night last week. . How did that baEhful fellow ever git up coinage to prepcte? Eit down, and I'll teil you the whole story. You see, I had known for a long time that Fred loved me. He had never t:la me o in words, but those eU que:, t eyes of his had told me so more than one.:-. However, that wasn't er.ouih, I ccul.J n't accept t.ltn and n-irr.e the day on the strength cf what I1I3 eyes said. ?o 1 dselded that in some way his Hps must be unhealed and his tongue made to :onfHm the language of his eyes. Do you follow me? How did I fix it? Well. I thought and thought, and finally I hit on a isi-h-me. I loved Fred, a:,d, knowing that he loved me, I felt that the end jusiillea the means. Late one afternoon I received a no's from hitn gayliiS that i.c wnuU citl! that even In.? if I wcuM be at borov. litre ta the o;jj.(;rt!iiil:- that I tad hfii WKi;i:-g for. and 1 a--ui-e you th:t I irr.i.rovcd St. I sent1 him word tint I would fciaUiy tt.: fcito.

She wasn't to iay any thin. r, tut to just Keep the line c en whiit I tallied away, I said I woaiJ explain later on j ir.d back home I went. Evening came, and with It Fred the same old baihful Fred, yet loving, lov- 6b. e and Lved. Promptly at tight- thirty the telephone bell rang. Yon know th-t our tclcphir.c is in the 11- biary.

He knows wu&t iarm onu w" life are. He was reared in the country and has won success in the city, and he believes the average farmer's son would b better off if he Btayed on the farm. He admits that many country boys win . . ,,, n i tho titles, but he argue, "that for every successful one .. . u .v,.e h-,iv maw both there Is a horde mat oareiy mane pnds meet. But Mr. Thompson goes be-1 j. j--j .-i.Hny conditions. He lleves farmers can do much better than heretofore, and he looks to education as the means of improving their con dition and making the farm more at tractive for the boys. Mr. Thompson would reform the sys tem of teaching the little red school houses of the country district He thinks the farmers' sons are lured out into the world by the glowing stories cf feted soldiers, merchant princes, elo quent lawyers and the rich and success fut of the great elJes generally. He rays the fault Ib in the school books, which dazzle the country boy with the glamour of these triumphs. These books never te41 of the tiller of the soil thn tnrk raiser who wins fame and fortune in those more prosaic call-J inga. Nor do they give any hints of the Improved methods on the farm ano the ranch. Mr. Thompeon thinks coun try boys would be more contented if they knew of the possibilities befort them on the farm. lie would have the boohs of the district school tell of thes. Rut he would also have the Instruction practical. He would teach the young men how to increase the crops, how to better the strains of the horses, the caf.le, the eheep and the hopa on th a beef animal furn sl.Ing hhih-prl"d meat as It Is to rear a scrub. The xe rule tvill hold gnod all thnugh terming. I would therefore have the ;cuntry school teach scientific farm ,ng, exalt the glories of the country. r.d assure the boys thut they need not rufh to the city to become well ti do. In discerning this problem Mr.Tbomp ton says; "The cry for the past fifty years has been To the city.' That was beneftVUl tor a time, and a sign of progress, but we ought now to raise the cry 'To the country.' The country Is deserted bj the boys, and the cities cannot pro vide remunerative labor for all who rotne. For the social place pf otir cnun. try the tide nriurtt change and flow back 9ga!p. For the bettrment of our com mercial Interest some of our young men should turn their attention to the farm and the ralslrg of produce.

"The farmer's children are as a rule the natural farmers of the country. What they become In after life Is de termined by their early education. At the district school the farm-r's eon lays the foundation for his future, and his ideas are largely Influenced by reading books treating of men and objects which seem to him to be of an outside world. Why not change this? Let his books speak of some great men vrno have been farmers, and there are thou sands of them. Let him study the things he comes In contact with every day. Let him be taught he can better his condition by adopting improved methods of production. This will make him more Interested In farm life end more contented. It will Are hts ambi tion to excel In his father's calling. It will make him a better man, a better farmer and a better citizen. If will kep many boys In the country antf re lieve the cities of their congestion. There will be smaller farms and more of them. There will be more ground cultivated and better results. The l.ve stock strains will be Improved and the farmer will get more money. In every way such a chanste will be a benefit to the farmer boys and to the country at large."

In in my ,i.tn-es the latter have prevailed, forc ing the cattlemen to reduce their num bers and in some cases to become shep herds. The high and dry ranges of the Ricky Mountain states are pecuiiarly suited to sheep. Their reign is merely the survival of the fittest in that coun try. But some of the ranges are becom ing crowded, and a bid winter may bring about a disaster similar though not BQual to that which ruined no many cattlemen ever a decade ago. HINTS. Trim evergreen hedges. Keep account of your crop and slgn ments. Remove euckera i'iuib litis r. ztzc'.n Of the vineyard. If you have a good home market do not look elsewhere for the sale of your fruit, unless you have something extra fine and some first-class customers. See those grape vines with their long new shoots swaying back mid forth? lhat Is their way of asking protection from the winds. Tying them to the treble or arbor does it. To raise fine large specimens cf fruit on a tree, graft it with an early an! J late sort. The early part will requite the large portion of the nutriment until It Is ripe, then the late sort will drnw all the nourishment from Its develop ment. When blackberry canes reach a height of three feet they should be pinched off. This can be done with a pair of six Inch scissors or sheep shears. Pruning shears are too clumsy for this kind o! work.

Any farmer who wi'l make a specialty of producing an extia quality cf fruit butter or Vvietables will not be com pelled to seek a market after his pro dure becomes known. Hundreds of mer chants are seeking the choice goods and they are willing to pay high prlo-t for superior articles, because tliey cat make larger profit therefrom.
