Kuskiti. you think is i .> wr-ste, and no FARMERS SHOULD WRITE MORE UTTERS. N (• ,D FRIEND in Kentucky writes us thr-t he ‘‘would rather spilt rails all day than write a lett»r.” It is more unfortunate for farmers as a ck-Ha that aontany of them are like this Kentuckian. Farmers write good letters, clear and to the point, hut they', write too few for their owe* good. If farmers generally would writ- Liters to the members of their legislature they could pt s any rea sonable legitilalion or defeat any that is against their rights or inter- c-'U*. if a million ft-rmers write to their congrressmcn and seta- tors demanding a parcels past they would soon have it. But p< rhape the greatest loss to farmers is in their ft-'.lure to write business letters Letters of inquiry to their experiment station, to the agricultural pros?., to ad\erUsers of machinery, supplies atU livestock, will ail bring valui-hie information which can be had in no other way. Every farmer in the land should have his own letter-head, neatly printed oi good paper. It mt rks him as a man of enterprise and ! good taste. It helps his business standing among those whom ' he corresponds. And best of all it may lead him to write more letters Frrmers would very properly resent the charge that they are illiterate. Yet many, maty people think farmers are so because they write st) little in no other class is the proportion of men um.ble write busit *ss letters so small, and no other class writes so few. Educatiot' is no good unless it Is used. Why not use it* Don’t wait for the other fellow to find out thingw and tell them; find out first and tell him.
