♦Like. Jonah’s gourd vine, we grow up, into a full, grone editorin a day and wither in a day.'The suit of silence, on the part of the farmer upon the subjects that,showed interest us most is more,% * ' •than we: can endure long at a itime. We get consalation fromthe fact that we have begun the work one more tinje than ye h a ve quit. If we fail to interest the farmer this timeby cbattingabout the farm and subjects that are paramount to the farmers we are going to try to make them mad. We may fail in the latter also, for they seem to be about as good •natured as ray friend Norvel Rogers. It is said Norvel could take more than any' boy in his community, as the following story illustrates: One of Novels brothers with Indian cross-bow and carelessly shot an arrow through . Noryels nose. With great ef r and pain, Norvel extracted the bearded arrow, wiped the blood off on . his Sunday shirt sleeve, and handed it bach to his brother and politely informed him that he’d better be “keerful” that he (Norvel) would be mad if he shot him in the nose any more.
