We do not understand why so many of our boys are leaving the farm and going to the rail - .. roads, cotton mills, and to the s work, when the farm life is witho ubt the happi est and best life one can. Very few boys not raised on the farm could go out land makea a success farming; on the other hand nearly any boy raised on the farm, if he would content himself and put as much good common sense into the farm as he would in any other work, if he has success, he would succeed on the farm. Of course * all professions and avocations have their drawbacks, their shadows and their burdens, but the farm life has, we believe, fewer than any other. The boy leaves the farm, gets a clerkship in a store in the city, marries and settles down to a city life, lives out of a paper sack-and it is mighty poor liv ing-any time -he has a -little extra company that means extra paper sacks and the poor 11. fello-w4oes not see how he is to pa-' for it because he is already taxed to the limit to live. While on the farm the more the merrier, go out in the yard get chickens, eggs, potatoes, beans, cabbage, etc. When the crop is eathered you have your corn in the crib, your meat in the house. your cow feed and forage in the barn and you feel independept at least to some extent. On the farm you get the purest wa'.er and the best atmosphere. you get the most wholesome exer --aj --.fter a hard day's work you can lie down and sleep. No one to tell you to dust the shoes and clothes, straighten out the counter, put the goods back in the shelves and get ready for the trade tomorrow. After all thke work is done, running around town getting in bad * company, ruining your health and your morals. One of the most delightful things about farm life is its regularity. Early in the morning. to work. dinner at 12 mn., one hour to rest, back to work again and supper early. When Saturday dinner comes, on most farms work and worry is laid aside till Monday morning and Sun. day in the country at the old country church, then at the neighbor's house, are bright spots in the memory of many a country boy that will go with him to old age. The farm is offering more in ducements now than ever be fore. Increasing demand for all .products raised on the farm and .better prices. The farmer can find immediate cash sale for everything he can raise at fair prices. The diy is here when the truck farmer can make money rapidly, and there are not enough to supply the de . The dairy farm and -poultry'farm are daily becoming more and more remunerative, but in our judgement the great est gold mine of all is one not yet established in this section, so far as we know. That is the stock farm. Raise mules, horses, cattle and hogs, for sale. There is money in it as sure as twice two make four. Let some of our farmers who are able to engage in the stock business try it. -Our hillsides are just suited to grow the finest grass. that can be grown. This is a great coun *try of ours and the farmer has the greatest opportunity yet offered him. We must have more farmers or we can't raise enough to supply the increasing demand for farm products. It seems that for several years past there has been a real exodus from the farm and we hope that the time is not far distant when the people will come flocking back to the farm. *and make our hillsides like gar den spots and our valleys blos som like the rose. We heard a staunch farmer say the other day that he could make $5.00 on the farm where he could make $1.00 merchandis ing, and he seems to be succeed ing at both, A GoodlIaw. That is a good law made by the last assembly, and printed on page 529 of acts 1912. It says a white boy may be com mitted to the Reform school at Florence with the consent of his parents Qr guardian without being tried or convicted of crime. The boy must be oyer eight and less than seventeen years of age. 'TdTy a reform law. Health Hint. Don't use strychnine for flay ring cakes and puddings. THE PEOP -J. E. The Wrong Officer.
