importance in the scheme of things we are all familiar with the way cicero and horace felt in more modern days voltairs declared whoever makes two blades of grass grow- where but one grew before renders a service to his state and after he had retired to his country place at verney voltaire was assured that the change had been the only thing that could have brought him health and happiness jonathan swift wrote about farm ing in almost the precise words used by voltaire and i think we can hard ly charge either one of these writers with plagiarizing wrote swift whoever would make two ears of corn or two blades of grass to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before would deserve better of mankind and do more essential ser vice to the country than the whole race of politicians put together abraham cowley accounted agri culture the nearest neighbor or rather next in kindred to phil osophy and another english poet john chalkhill writing at about the middle of the seventeenth century wrote enthusiastically about the farm ers life in a series of verses that have a happy lilt this is the way he be gins his coridons song oh the sweet contentment the countryman doth find high

by name his stronghold said irving was situated on the banks of the hudson in one of those green sheltered fer tile nooks in which the dutch farm ers are so fond of nestling a great elm tree spread its broad branches over it at the foot of which bub bled up a spring of the softest and sweetest water in a little well form ed by a barrel and then stole spark ling away through the grass to a neighboring brook that babbled along among alders and dwarf willows hard by the farmhouse was a vast barn that might have served for a church every window and crevice of which seemed bursting forth with the treasures of the farm the flail was busily resounding within it from morning to night swallows and mar tins skimmed twittering about the eaves and rows of pigeons some with one eye turned up as if watch ing the weather some with their heads under their wings or buried in their bosoms and others swelling and cooing and bowing about their dames were enjoying the sunshine on the roof old van tassel was not proud no not he but it is confessed that he piqued himself on the fact that within the boundaries of his farm everything was snug happy and wellconditioned emerson like all good concordians did some cultivating of the ground with his own hands but emerson found the occupation so suporabsorb ing that he was obliged to give it up as inconsistent with his literary la bors nonetheless his essays are full of references to the satisfactions as well as importance of the agricultur al life the land wrote he is the appointed remedy for whatever is false and fantastic in our culture today with our urban civilzation tending to grow more and more fan tastic such a remedy seems more needed than ever hawthorne had little good to say about his laborious days at the brook kami
