Gradually our town h+ta gone down, our business houses are "tacky" in appearance, a number are empt y, our echoota church- es and ware are going down, we have no band, no library nor ball teats.

It is "toe far from a live town" -so every farmer hap said that wants to buy.e buyslace H a p near schools and churches, where his children can have advantages, I have awakened to the fact that in helping to pull the town down, it has cost me $5,600 in nine years. Like the ma• jority of farmers, I didn't figure far enough ahead. This sort of business means the doing away with country towns. What will it mean to farmers to have only a few large cities at adistance of five hurls dred to a thousand miles? What are we going to do with ottr children who are demanding even better advantage than we had? Those cities we be]p to build return n', favors; they take our money but offer no credit in time of need. If we want high schools, etc , we must raise the mnoeyand build near our farm homes, or send our boys and girls to the pities at great exper.ce, amide t temptations of which the farm has no equal. Neither am I the only awakening farmer. These mail order agents that come to our homes every week are becoming a nuisance and making it unsafe to leave women and children alone on the farm, With farm Cordiality we take these strang- ers into our homes, often as one of the family, and we are sometimes paid in having them entice our girls to the city, These are some facts that need con- sideration, and I have decided that the safeet proposition all around, is for the country people to Iook after their own interests, and build up their own country towns haat bring value to their farms.
