SAMUEL FARMER, Publisher and Proprietor, FARM HOMES, leis from the Toronto Saturday Night and speaks for itself : -- "In a recent issue aa item ap- peared in this journal stating that while it was the habit of city people to envy the fariners their independent lives and the abund- afice with which their tables were spread, yet in too many cases the farmers deny themselves the good cating they could readily have in order to sell everything that proves saleable. The complaint of one farm-girl was quoted and it must be admitted that she voiced her gricvance in an exaggerated way. The Review of Vankleek Hill objects to the paragraph in question, saying that while this journal is usually fair and about right in the opinions we express, yet in this case we scem to have wandered from the straight path entirely." We happen to live," says the Review, "in a strictly rural community and cat many a meal with the farmers, and whether the editor of Saturday Night believes it so or not, we wish to assure him that if Toronto men, women and kids got as good meals as the farmers of Prescott County eat, they would not sce so many patent medicines and physicians--they would resemble to a greater extent the brain and brawn that is produced on the fim." . However, as this" subject has been brought forward a few addi tional remarks may be made upon it by one who was born on a farm and knews many a'farm table in different parts of the province. The tables he knows all are amply laden and the heads of the family carve and serve with a generosity that makes the visitor stare. Jn many of these homes if thesdisitor does not wait until the table is spread and then «it in" and "eit a squarc meal he will not be far- given It matters dot that he has just bad dinner at another house a mile down the road--he must eat or stay until he can. In every way there is a plentiful board and a robust hospitality. And yet even in these rural homes, which are much above the average, one cannot help thinking that eating is too much of a'duty, too much of a routine, and not sufficiently re- garded as one of the privileges of life. Ifitis well to cook at all it is well to use ingenuity in cooking: 1f it is well to bake pies or cakes, itis well to have variety in the kind made. While one usually finds on farm tables food plentiful' and pleasing in kind to a visitor, yet too often there is a sameness day in and day 'out which must make the men of the family mere feeders at table. They get much the same substantial things end: lessly, and not enough frills, fancies and cunning com inations from the pot and oven. of raw fruits and vegetables. = I Ontario, as a whole, two gre needs of the agriculturists ar more verandas in' front of th houses and more family garden | may become a home-and hav n 'appearance of -- SR than he!

They spend too much time in toil and in almost insane terror of a future life, which the healthy mind should contemplate with trust and confidence.
