KKEPlSa THE HOY OS THE FAHM.
"A farmer vlmso son is also a farmer,' is wriliiitf liis
autobiography for the World's Work. The editor has
asked him to tell particularly how his sou came to enjoy
farm life and uot hanker attwr tlie aiiuremems 01 uic tim.i
uFrom tlie very first," says this rural philosopher,'
"my partner and I set out to make life enjoyable for our
children," his "partner" being his wife. There follow
tales of porterhouse steaks which "would have appetized
the jaded palate of a dyspeptic president' and of huge
bowis of strawberries and cream "which Queen Victoria
might have envied." For playfellows the fortunate young
folk of this farm had calves, colts, horses, pigs, pigeons.
Angora rabbits, dogs, birds, guinea pigs, "and even a
white rat!" Moreover, a savings bank account was open
ed for the children on the five cents an hour which they
received for performing various outdoor tasks.
The New York World, in commenting on the article,
says that it may not be possible always to instil thus a
eareer-fixiug joy of life either on a profitable farm or in
a well-provided home elsewhere. And if all sons were to
follow in the footsteps of the fathers the world would
somewhere presently experience a dearth of men. The
strength of this autobiographer s charming tale of expe
rience is in its pointing to a degree of regard for the chil
dren. , '
Hoys and girls do not enter this world of their own
desire The eommandnient winch bids them honor their
fathers and mothers has an unwritten corollary. Parents
must honor and comfort their children. The fanner m
the magazine did this in setting forth the best he had in
thought and food. It is likely that m:.uy a son has gone
further astrav than "of the farm" for lack of such a keen
sense of loving responsibility at the head of the home.
Anywav, the hoy is not kept to the acres by the selling of
the" best joints to the city markets while tlie chiwk steak
is served to the family.
