You may think you have heard music in your time, but when you get to be a farm hand the sound of the dinner bell will make the softest nofces of Paganini seem like the discordant tones of a cornstalk fiddle by comparison.

We have recieved an inquiry from a young man who lives in town wanting to know something about the chances to get work in the Kan sas harvest fields at good wages.

If the young man really desires to find a job he will have no trouble in being accomodated in Kansas this year, and furthermore we are glad that he is in the notion. The experience will do him good. We want to say to the young man, however, that he will not find the life of a farm hand a constant picnic or a period ot bubbling joy.

Your eyes will smart and the smell of perspiration will be upon your person.
