Inability to do this not only cripples a service which is a daily necessity to ycu, but makes it impossible for your com- pany to enlarge its plant and system to meet the growing needs of your community.

Some of you perhaps, have thought that I have gone beyond the limit in my listing of the qualifications essential to a successful farmer. In fact, one of you wrote me, one time, that I was ask- ing altogether too much; that no living man could measure up to what 1 said a successful farmer should be. Well, I don't remember, this morning, exactly what I said that moved this cor- poident to such comment. And I'm too shiftless” just now to hunt it up. It was a good while ago, anyhow. But I've just read an article by Judge Howard of the New York supreme court in which that eminent jurist sets forth the quali- fications which occur to him as neces- sa And, no matter what I said or how sweeping my implications, I'm Wil ing to bet a dime against a doughnut that I never covered so much territory as does Judge Howard. You'll say the same when you've read it. Before I quote it, however, I want you to know that Judge Howard is one of the most widely known and most highly re- spected of the judges in the Empire state.

Judge Howard explicitly calls “the suc-| cessful farmer.” And you and I need to make quite sure that we're in that small class before we assume too many air: o, indeed; I'm quoting it, not with| any idea of puffing up the already amply | developed self-conceit of the average far-| mer, but rather to suggest to him the| seemliness of a little modesty as he re- flects upon the extent of what he ought to know and—too often—doesn't know. For there is a continent-wide difference | between the “successful farmer” and the mere farmer. It is to be hoped that we, all of us, want to belong to the ‘“suc- cessful” class. That list of qualifications for membership therein should give us| pause. It should lead us to a little quiet ! and wholesome self-examination. How nearly do we measure up to the mark set? : i Nor is Judge Howard's formidable statement by any means complete. He| has omitted to mention that the success-| ful farmer must also be a shrewd buyer; and a wise seller or all the fruits of his other knowledge and work will go to the enrichment of in-between toll-takers. Nor has he included the more than mere scat-; tering of such sciences as botany, geo-| logy, entomology, etc., which the suc- cessful farmer must have at his finger- ends. Nor the knowledge of drainage and irrigation engineering, one or the other of which is. essential on almost ev-| ery farm. Nor the high inventive abil- ity, which is demanded every week, to meet some wholly unexpected threat of | disaster, whose symptoms and_treatment have not yet got into any text-book or| any log-book of experience. But never mind such things now. Consider just the list of qualifications he has set forth. As a rule, lawyers have a fairly good | opinion of themselves, of their own knowledge ,and their own ability. When, therefore a lawyer who has attained eminence in that exacting profession | openly asserts that “it requires more tal-| ent to become a successful farmer than| to become successful in any other walk of life,” it must be assumed that he in-| chrdes lawyering in those “other walks” he refers to, as well as manufacturing, banking, merchandizing, etc. Considered from that point of view, his statement is, more than illuminating, it is somewhat startling. Moreover, his casual reference to the “little legislator” is highly sugges- tive.

Not only are they deserting the post of duty, but, if Judge Howard’s conclu- sions are gorrect, they are ignoring the path bf opportunity and wasting a part of their talents. 1t is as plain as a takes ten producers consumers, normally, desert and go over to crowd the remaining supply the hundred adequately. Whereupon, supply being fnsuflicient for demand, the cost of living goes up. Whereupon, again, the hundred con- sumers vociferously curse the remaining five producers, instead of the deserting five. pike-stafl that, if it to feed a hundred when five producers the consuming five producers can't and five consumers you ever know anything more un- reasonable? or more stupid? or more downright silly? But what's the use of talking? All *he judges of all the courts in Christendom may decide that it's foolish but, if Jack wants to live where there’s a baseball game every day and Jill wants to wear a picture hat and go to the movies every night, then Jack and Jill will saunter down the hill as nonchalantly as if they were really going after a pail of useful water, instead of being headed for a dis- astrous tumble. All any of us old fellows on the bench or off it can hope to do is to encourage those in whom prudence and foresight E rule to stick to their jobs and do their work the best they can. Above all, to convince them that they have no call to be ashamed of it, but, rather, that they have the right to take pride in it. And so I commend Judge Howard's statement about the qualifications of a successful farmer to those who would is right than what merely easy; who still admire pure gold more than glitter and sham.
