THE PASSING OF THE OLD-FASHIONED FARMER.
AS YOU WONDER AMID THE throng that good naturedly jostles you at the County Fair these days, you wonder naturally you from the smoky city and the busy marts of trade, where the old-fashioned farmer is? You look about you and you see well-dressed sun-burned, robust, healthy looking men, with keen intelligence depleted in their eyes and yet they don't look like farmers to you. They come to the fair in a rubber-tired rig,
Bometimes in an automobile, you know they take their daily papers, that they have their telephones, their bath tubs, their gas, or their electric light, and you wonder where the old-fashioned farmer is. The old-fashioned
farmer wasn't learned or erudite; the farmer today is often college bred.
He seems more like the city man than anything else, and again you puzzle
yourself with the query, "where is the old-fashioned farmer?"
Well, he is here all right enough, but, more's the pity he is sadly in the minority. As you wander up and down the business section of the county Beat, during fair time, you fail to see two or more old-fashioned farmers
taunchly planted on every street corner swapping yarns as in the olden days. The old-fashioned farmer is a thing of the past and a reminisence for the future. Old "Josh b' gosh" isn't to be seen very often nowadays. And
it is to be regretted.
Funny we don't feel elated over it? Not a bit of it. The truth is we miss him. We are lonesome for the great-hearted old fellow that would come to town with his load of hay or grain to sell; the farmer who would do his rustic shopping in big leather boots and a smile that was almost as big. After a squirt or two of fine cut, alongside of the corn straw he chewed between his iron jaws, he would grip your hand in his hairy paw like the
bite of a carpenter's vise and from the depths of his innermost being, as if it was a cavern beneath your feet; like the rumble of subterranean thunder
would come the words, "Howdy do, danged if I an't glad to see ye." Oh
there was no doubt of the sincerity and in affectedness of that greeting, ITT n Ik. T 1 a. n . tt-m t . ... .
xiuw vlli iu j-ui.u.a iu iuu: vraps- nner n bus. Apples: Now yer talkin jest come out and take all yer want, an say there's a mess of juicy
corn standing' handy by, an' if yer real .spry and one or two of my spring chicks get so tame that they, fly up and put their tootsies in yer hand, don't get mad at their familiarity, but jest let me know how they tasted and how the missus enjoyed them-" And with a prod in your ribs, with that horny old thumb of his sticking out from a hand that could crush you into yelping,
with its fervor and a "Wall s' long, I'll see ye at the fair," he's gone.
Yes, he Is gone. The old-fashioned farmer, with the heart of gold and the homely humor, isn't here anymore as he used to be. You let the dust that you gathered off that old alpaca coat, as It came into proximity with
you, stay on your new blue serge. Somehow or -other, It gives you a feelin
of strength and honesty to see it there and know that some nickle-seeking son of Ham isn't going to whisk it off you with his broom. And you long for the farmer's old bandanna, not to fleck off the dust, but. to mop" out the traces of something that willy nilly will come into the corners of those world weary eyes of yours, as you contrast all the petty narrow, bickering, snickering, superficial modes of existence with that great big lovable natural life

ESSENTIALS OF A HONE. What are the three essentials of a home? There are many essentials, but If you were shut op to just three things what would you select? A woman's club of Chicago debated that question for half a day and reached no conclusion. One woman held that the three essentials are a good temper, a good mother and the wife in charge of the finances, which raised the Scriptural question as to who is tbe head of the house. The majority appeared to think that Taul's idea of the husband's supremacy is out of date. Another of the women held that the
essentials are "a good mother, a good
cook and a trained nurse." This left the man entirely out of the question.
Either he was not regarded as abso
lutely essential or he was taken for granted. And it was suggested that a
woman might be a good mother, cook and nurse and at the same time a very poor wife.
One woman timidly hinted at a good
husband as one essential, but not much attention was paid to her contribution.
Late in the afternoon a minister hap
pened in. He was asked his opinion.
He replied, "A man, a woman and a
cook stove."
Whereat the women applauded the
rather cute solution and ended the debate.
Evidently it did not occur to them
that a man, a woman and a cook Btove
might be the essentials of a home, but
that they might also be the essentials
of a dive.
One of the Chicago newspapers took
up the discussion and asked for contributions. Many answers were given.
and the one that was finally adopted as the best was this: "A man, a woman and a baby."
But this answer is open to the ob
jection mentioned to the reply of the
minister.
It seems to us the solution Is simple,
and it is strange so many people should have missed it Narrowed down to the
absolute factors, the threa essentials of a home are:
A husband, a wife and LOVE. Is it not so?

Many opportunities of this kind present themselves In Gary at the present time, and there is no question but what If an Investor studied the situation Beriously, he could make a handsome income or profit from an investment. Now Is the Time. That, "Now is the time to invest" in Gary real estate seems to be the slogan everywhere.
