I'd been too busy for a good while previous to that, and then I called in the boys. After tba funeral it was too much for them to stay around and eat the kind of cookin' we had to put up with, and nobody spoke up around the house as we used to.

Tho boys quit whistlin' around the barn and talked kind of low by themselves about goin' to town and gettin' a job. "They're all gone now and the snow is four feetMeep on mother's grave up there in the old berryin' ground." Then both of us looked out of the car window quite a long while without saying any thing. I don't blame the bovs for L.1i something else long's otb3rthings pays better; but I say and I say what I know that-the man who holds the prosperity of this) coun try in his hands, the man that actually makes money for other people to spend, Us man that eats three good, simple, squar meals a day and goes to bed at nine o'clock, so that future generations with good blood and cool brains can go from his farm to the Senate, Congress and the White House he is the man that gets left at last to run his farm, with nobody to help him but a hired man and a high protective tariff. The farms in our State is mortgaged for over seven hundred million dollars. Ten of our Western States I see by the papers haa got about three billion anil a half mortgages on their farms, and that don't count chattel mortgages filed with the town clerks oni-farm machinery, stock, waggins and even crops, by gosh! that ain't two inches high under the snow.

That's what tho pros-spects is for farmers now. The Government is rich, but the men that made it, the men that fought perarie fires and perarie wolves and Injins and potato-bugs and blizzards, and has paid the war debt and Master workman Cahill of the dis have resented it. He was built wide and be couldn't h.elp it, so I forgave him, He had a large, Sntld, kindly eye, and when he desired to spit he went to the car' door, opened it and decorated the entire olitside of the train, forgetting that our speed would help to give scope to his remarks. Naturally, as he sat there by my side, holding on tightly to his ticket and evidently afraid that the conductor would forget to come end get it, I bogan to figure out in my mind what might be his business. He had pounded one thumb so that the nail was black where the blood had settled under it.

This might happen to a shoemaker, a carpenter, a blacksmith or most any one else. So it didn't help me out much, though it looked to me as though it might have been done by trying to drive a fence-nail through a leather hinge with the back of an axe, and nobody but a farmer would try to do that. Following up the clue, I discovered that he had milked on his boots and then I knew I was right. The man who milks before daylight, in a dark barn, when the thermometer is down to 28 degrees below and who hits his boot and misses the pail, by reason of the cold and the uncertain light and the prudishness of tho cow, is a marked man. He can not conceal the fact that he is a farmer unless he removes that badge.

Soon as a farmer boy gets in a place like that he forgets the soil that produced him and holds his head as high as a holly-hock. He bellers for protection to every body but the farmer, and while he sails round in a highty-tighty room with a fire in it night and day, his father on the farm has to kindle his own fire in the morning with elm slivvers, and he has to wear his son's lawn tennis suit next to him or freeze to death, and he has to milk in an old gray shawl that has held that member of Congress when he was a baby, by gorry and the old lady has to sojourn through the winter in the flannels that Silas wore at the rig-gatter before he went to Congress.
