Are Rural Schools Unsightly

in the years' to come:

day.
Go into any well -regulated dairy

find the stalls graded to the cows ;

A few hundred dollars added to the

would mean only a trifle in taxation,
but it would mean a value beyond

rooms were made more pleasant and

To. the Editor, Saturday ,Night
Nair,—This' question, so 'pertinently
k 1 1) 'our paper a week or so
ago, rust conu'.deeed and dealt with'
by those entrusted with the\ well-be-
ing ' and destiny of our common-
wealth. 'I'lle farmer is too often'
looked upon by • the manufacturing,
mercantile' and in histria1 classes as a
doll, slow -going kind of person whose
duty it is; to pixelece, as much •ioocl
stun as ptissibfa for their—the pri-'
ileged class—benefit. .I -Ie is expect-
ed. to produce as abundance of totem -
al and vegetable foods and fruits at
the lowest possible cost and profit,
not for lis own benefit, but for that
of those who assume towards him
such dictatorial . and. patronizing airs.
1It does not seem to .occur to Om
that the farmer is under no oblig-
ation to Mulish theme with foodstuffs
of any kind er at any price. The
farmer's business is to provide food,
raiment and comfort for himself and
family. Tues niay seem a very sel-
fish and narrow v eew ,to, take of the
farmer. But it canrrit be gainsaid.

It Is a notorous fact that many
fanners in Ontario prefer to let the
