years," says (J. M. Persons.
“Itis a queer little paper. I have sometimes read

and find something new to interest me," says Alfred Krogh.
“Farm Journal is like a bit of sunshine in our home.
It is making a better class of people out of farmers. It was first
sent me as a Christinas present, and I think it the choicest present
I ever received,” says I*. K. LeValley.
“We have read your dear little paper for nearly 40
vears. Now we don’t live oti the farm any more, yet I still have a
hankering for the old paper. I feel that I belong to the family, and
every page is as dear ana familiar as the faces of old friends,” says
Mrs. B. W. Edwards.
“I fear I neglect my business to read it. I wish it
could be in the bauds of every farmer in Virginia,” says \\ . S. Cline.
“I live in a town where the yard is only 15x IS feet,
but I could not do without the Farm Journal,” says Miss Sara
Carpenter.
“I get lots of books and papers, and put them aside
for future reading. The only paper 1 seem to have in my hands
all the time is Farm Journal. 1 can’t finish reading it. Can t vou
make it less interesting, so I can have a chance at my other
jiapei s?” writes John Swail.
“If I am lonesome, down-hearted, or tired, I goto
Farm Journal for comfort, next to the Bible, ’ says Mabel Dewitt.
“Farm Journal has a cheerful vein running through
it that makes it a splendid cure for the “blues.” When coining
home tired in mind and body, I sit down and read it, and it seems
to give me new inspiration lor life,” w rites G. E. Haldemian.
“We have a brother-in-law who loves a joke. We
live in Greater New York, amt consider ourselves quite citified, so
when be sent us the Farm Journal as a New Year’s gift \ye nearly
died laughing, llow to raise hogs’—we who only use bacon in
glass jars! llow to keep cows dean’—when we use condensed
milk even for rice pudding! ‘How to plant onions’—when we
never plant anything more fragrant than lilies of the valley. 1
accepted the gilt with thanks, lor we are too well-bred to look a
gift horse in the mouth. Soon my eye was caught by a beautiful
poem. 1 began to read it, then when I wanted the harm Journal
1 found my husband deeply interested in an article. 1 hen my
oldest son began to ask, ’Has the Farm Journal come yet r He is
a jeweler, and hasn’t much time for literature; but we find so much
interest and uplift in this fine paper that we appreciate our New
Year's gift more ami more,” writes Ella B. Burkinan.

and consider them worth their weight in gold,” says YV. G. Newall.

years to-leam,” says Roy Chaney.
“Duck Dollars is the best book I ever had on duck
raising,” says F. M. Warnock.

information ah the Egg-Book, I would consider them cheap at
double the price,” says H. YV. Mansfield.

reminders and ideas worth a year’s subscription,” writes

one paragraph," says N. M. Gladwin.

LETTER FROM SARDIS.
The young men and young
women of the country are oc
cupied during the week with
their domestic duties, and
have very lit le time for social
gatherings, ( o isequently Sun
day is a day of social life for
the young. How to get them
to Sunday school then, is a
question. There is but one
answer; mike the Sunday
school the center of their
social life. This we do.
How ?
We let the young people
rule; the old people guide,
guide. As well as we love the
old, we know that they haven't
the energy and life to rule and
that their rule would be tire
some and boring to the young.
Even this would not suc
ceed, it we did not have teach
ers who try to present the les
son in an interesting way. Let
the teacher he tiresome and
boring in expression, and the
pupils will drop out. The les
son must be presented in an
attractive and interesting man
ner, or the school will die.
