Soon Percy and the Mrs. began to long for the green elds and n- ancial advantages of farm `life, so, having a. small sized `bank account and a modest little bungalow in the subtmbs, they cashed up and zfell in line with the back to the land movement. They found no trouble in acquiring a farm in exchange for their small store oif ready cash and - a. Iilortgage for the `balance. Of course Percy understood farming tl101'oughly, having often watched his dad and older `brothers do the stunt when he was a. small boy at home. TV;-.11 I "T`lr\1"r1nvL< ~m-nn'|r`l -nn rlnnhf Well! Things would no doubt have progressed nicely if he hadn't forgotten to spray and cultivate his potatoes and if he hadn't. cut all his hay down just at the beginning of a wet spell or made the mistake of hauling his grain in when it was damp and numerous other unfortun- ate nhlunders. But, as it Was. when the fall payment on the mortgage fell due, Percy was unable to raise the necessary cash and `found himself heaved out in the cold .by a hard- hearted and harder headed old crook who refused to listen to any explanations. So poor Percy had to go back to the smokestacks and start in all over again. And to this day he scoffs at the idea of a man ever making any money on a farm. `\{nv-al T`1-nlninvr nn n\-nnrinnr-n |FABLE or THE FARM I DISILLUSIONED SON SOCIABILITY AS AN ASSET p2l[lBl'.

It is not only the enormous size of the Fam- ily Herald that excites the wonder of the world, it is the vast variety and the super-excellence of its con- tents. The great success of the Family Herald of Montreal has re- sulted in securing for it the very hest talent in all its departments. This is a measure of its progressive- ness. To say that the Family -}Ier- ald is in a class by itself without a rival is to put it mildly. The pub- lishers we understand will send sample copies free on receipt of postal card.

Perhaps the students keep the lee- turers busy during the whole of their time and the former have no- thing to tell the `farmer.
