Why Leave The Farm?
Why arc so many old farmers
Jbaving the farm and going to town?
\Vhnt inducement is there in the
towns for them? What encourage¬
ment -is it to a young man to see no
many old men leaving their farms
and going to town who were horn
.and.veaied on the farm, who wore
taught to farm for a living—.that it I
-was the best, place oa eaith to live —
that it was the most honest and
honorable way «f making a living
—that the most happiivess was found
there—that the most pleasant days
were spent there and everything
more pleasant there than anywhere
Use?
,.T cannot see any inducement in
•town for a man who has spent the
■most of his life on the farm. What
does he want to go to town for .in
,his old age? It seems t > me if lie
•wanted jiea.ee and hrtppinoae, -ho
would stay on the farm. After he,
has almost broken himself down
with work, why don’t he enjoy the
.rest of his life on the farm and not
goto town, as a. great many aro
■doing? They arc, not euco nr aging
the young men to stay on the farm,
but rather discouraging them,
it’s enough to discourage them, or
any one that wished to go to the
farm.
Ask a man who has lived twenty
.five or thirty years on the farm
-what he fame to town for. Sortie
-will answer you one thing, some
another. Probably it is to educate
his children. Well, he didn't gPe
his oldest children such an educa¬
tion. Why didn’t lio? Because he
wasn’t able.
And is he able now to leave his
farm and go to town to educate the
younger ones? It seems to me it
would be cheaper to board them, if
ho intends to educate them in town,
and him stay on the farm and take
care of it. I cannot see any reason
why a man should leave the farm
after he has raised his children al¬
most to men and women. lie had
best stay there and teach them that
it is the noblest occupation they
lean find.
Teach the young men to farm, if
tl»oy wish to make an honest living.
Teach the girls to respect the farm¬
er boys above all Others. If mors
of this was done, I don’t think there
would be quite so many boyn raised
'OR the farm that leave it. The
older men leaving the farm discour¬
ages them. They think if they
have lived so long on the farm and
■can do better in town what’s the use
foe them to begin. They think
they might as well go to town first
as last, and when they got that into
thoir heads, all the talk you can do
will not convince them that they
,ara wrong and that they should stay
OT 1 the farm, where they can go to
sleep at eight o’clock, get up at four,
and do an honest day’s labor with¬
out so much worry and trouble—
where, they could go where they
pleased and have as big a time as
any town boy and enjoy it more.
The old men should think of all
this and stay on their farms and use
their influence to keep the boys
there, for you will not meet many-
old men who have left the farm and
gone to town but would go back if
they could, and almost all do that
can; and, besides, they wish they
had never left it. If the young
men would only listen to them they
would get some good advice that
they would never regret as long as
they live.
I wish that every young man
would become a farmer for two or
three years at least, and see what
they could do. I think the greatest
number would stay there.
With best wishes, 1

During the civil war, as well aa
in our late war with Spain, diarrhoea
WBB one of the most troublesome
diseases the army had to contend
with. In many instances it became
chronic and tho old soldiers still
suffer from it. Mr. David Taylor,
of Wind Kid go, Qreono Co., Fa., is
one of these. Ho uses Chamber¬
lain’s Colio, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and soys he never found
anything that would give him such
quick relief. It- is for sale by Dr.

At Brushy Crock School.
Friday afternoon of last week the
long-talked-of spelling boo came off
at the Brushy Creek school The
pupils of this school have been un¬
der the competent tutorage of Prof.
11. .]>. Sutton for several months
and show careful training. The re-
suit of the spelling bee is evidence
of thnir,proficiency in spelling, and,
it follows that they are also well up I
in their other studies.
After the Hohool exercises wore
over, the classo.t for the spelling bee
wore organized as follows:-

PM. Sutton gave out the words
and the contest Was a lively and in¬
teresting one. The visitors went
there to spell down the school and
met defeat, the Dispatch representa¬
tive being among the easiest turned
down. We may as well Rtate that
the yisitora were defeated twice, arid
then decided to wait awhile before
tackling the school again.
After the spoiling l/ee, Mr. L. R.
Tucker made an interesting talk to
the children.
Three cheers for the bright pupils
of the Brushy Greek school.
Yes, Claude, that’s the way to
do, and the little piece .of land will
remain yours, You can buy land
in Way cross or Brunswick, on the
suburbs, in almost any size 1 lots, for
$200 per acre, so you hold yours at
double that figure, and homehunt-
era won’t worry, ytmr town will
not be crowded, you’ll know every
body in tdwn, the merchants will
sell two lead pencils apiece each
day and you will still own the land.
Yes, that’ll build the town to he a
little bit o’tuiiig about vonr size.—
Douglas Breeze. That hits other
places as well as Douglas, arid it is
the deadest blow a town can receive.
Tho towns in Georgia that have
died by this same blow can be
numbered by the tons, and more
will follow ho long as the policy of
asking throe or four prices for
real estate is continued, There is
too much selfishness in this world,
any way.
An editor who died of starvation
was being escorted to heaven by an
angel who had been sent out for
that purpose, says the Findlay (O.)
Courier. “May I look at the other
place before we ascend to eternal
happiness?” “Easily,” said the an¬
gel. So they went below and skirm¬
ished around, taking in the sights.
Tho angel lost sight of the editor
and went around hades "to hunt him
up. He was found sitting by &
furnace fanning himself and gazing
with rapture on a lot of people in
the fire. There was a sign oil the
furnace which said: “Delinquent
Subscribers.” ii Come,” said the
axigel' “we nmat be going.” i i You
go on,” laid the editor, ‘’Pin not.
going. This is heaven enough for
me.”
The other morning a cousin of
President McKinley who is a resi¬
dent of this city, (and by the way,
a “government pauper”) came slow¬
ly down the street wheeling a wheel¬
barrow of vegetables. lie was ask¬
ed why he did not get his cousin to
give him a position. lie answered
with true American spirit “I am too
independent.” Everyone who knows
the old gentleman is convinced that
he is worfhy-of an easier time for
he is ovor 70 years of age, but we
do admire his grit.—Fitzgerald

a tVsotnor Tells How She Her
Little Saughter’s Life.
I am the mother of eight children
and have had a groat deal of ex¬
perience with medicines. Last Sum¬
mer my little daughter had the
dysentery in its worst form. We
thought she would die. I tried
everything I could think of, good. but
nothing seemed to do her any
I saw by an advertisement in our
paper that Chamberlain's Golio,
Choiora and Diarrhea, Remedy was
highly roeoinmended and sent and
got a bottle at once. It proved to
be one of the very best medicines
we ever had in the house. It saved
my little daughter’s life. 1 am anx¬
ious for every mother to know what
an excellent medicine it is. Had i
known it at first it would have saved
me a great . deal , oi anxiety ■ , aud 3 1 mj
