INTERESTING BOYS IN THE FARM.

I'We are trying," pays Mr? Wa|son. in the .'Housekeepers' 'Club' of tjie Prairie Farmer, „an experiment with our boys. They are fourteen and sixteen, last' year they began talking about when they could leave the farm, and clerk at.the stores in Town. That did not suit their father or ino at all, for we think that farming is about the best and pleasantost way to make a living there is, and want the boys to be farmers too—good, intelligent men, and fond of theip.'.'word.. Last fall we gave each.of them an acre of gpps grpunt} on which they are'tij raise vegetables or, whatever crop they please, and to tie two, together a yearling calf, a.coin) they haft helped to take care Qf,;and',this:spring their choice of a lamb ad pig, Besides we have turned over to them and their- sister all the chjokens and on farm, All the money thoy make off. their stock or ground Is thefts jp.do what they please with, and they iiro already so interested in their work. tM they,are planhins; to use part of it in,adding to their lancj, and partis to go toward two years ad somo agricultural college, .They are going to make a good deal out of their poultry, if nothing happens, Half of the'proceeds from the fowls belongs to Dolly, for Bhe takes the most care of them; the 'other half is divided between the two.boys, They are to have all the necessary, feed from the farm, and in return are to bujply the family with aU the .eggs' and fowls we can use, 'Tiey have "?eyeraj blank books to keep"ticcbu'ntof.their stock and crops, and what, they bujk and sell. We think if more would foDoroW plan, fower boys would leave the farm. They cannot be expected to stay where it is all work in whicl} theyhaye no inj§p: est." ■-.■ ""- ::• .:'!::VTVy '
