In a large number of in stances, the men who are most anxious to move are doing well here. ‘‘Let Well enough alone” is an old and true maxim. Men who own a good farm and are making a comfortable living should hesi tate long before giving their con sent to abandon their homes to try their fortunes in Texas or any of the Western States.
