arc perhaps the most favored by
the little folks., as _ rabbits art
more numerous and common
about town. The activity of th*
squirrel* attract much admira-
tion and the guinea pigs get a
large share of attention from tho
fact that them1 are four new com-
ers in their cage leas than a week
old. Guinea pigs are not like
puppies and kittens that lie about
helplessly with their eyes closed,
hut they are born with their eye*
open and within a few minutot

or necessity, will work, and per-
haps they will work at one task
or another as in buy hours per day
as they ph ase.
We may pity the weak and ad*
the strong in their struggle,
mire
but the farm woman is entitled to
her share of svmpathr arid reward.
Alf Must toil.
The lahpr problem, as relates to
men. is a most vexation* one and
when we apply it to women It
becomes more seriously complicated.
We will always have to work unless
some political geflius can put ia
law on the statute book that will
enable us to lire without labor.
So long as every person must meet
toil face to face, the best we can
do is to equitably distribute the
burdens and reward of labor, and
if there is to be a revision of
wages and a shortening of hours, t
want the farm woman to get hat
share. She has more reason to com-
plain than any other class of toilers.
She has, as a rule, fewer comforts,
fewer pleasures, lees recreation and
less opportunity *far enjoyment than
her sister in the city. She hat
not 00 many conveniences and fewer
luxuries and less to be thankful
for than women who who live In
the town, but she toils on, a model
of consistency, patience and wom-
anly devotion. Certainly 6he should
be the first to be rewarded.
The Real Labor Problem is on
the Farm.
The great dailies with flaming
headlines deplore the lot of women
who toil in the cities, the city pul-
pit thunders with ■sympathy for her
and the legislators orate in her
behalf, but .not a line is written,
a word sVid or a speech delivered
in the interest of tire million women
who labor on the farm. Where one
woman works in the cities in Tex-
as, there are a hundred mothers
Crop Oonttst.
Many of the Commercial Club*
of the state are taking an unusu-
al interest in the $1(1,000 price
crop contest of the Texas Indus-
trial Congress and are actively
co-operating oin securing contest-
ants.
This is especially true of the
Youug Men’s Business League of
Palestine. Through its secretary
John Gaffney, the Business Lea-
gue has mailed four hundred per-
sonal letters to -farmers of Ander
son county, enclosing in each an
application blank to enter the
crop contest of the Congress end
urging the farmers, to join.
The League has expended a
great deal of effort in the upbuild
ing of Palestine, and it is now ox
tcndL vj its work so as to include
(Anderson county as well. It real-
izes that one of the first steps in
accomplishing its purpose is to
induce the farmers to adopt the

It was learned here that plan-

holdings of <\ AY. Post, at

intention to cut the property up
into small farms and sell to set-
tlors. Representatives of the

as. there are
toiling in the field, and no mention
is made of ft. Is the woman in
the city entitled to any more con-
sideration than the .woman on the
farm? I contend that she is not.
The city woman may be more eas-
ily restrained by ^legislation and
she may have a attentive
audience when she cries aloud, but
the real labor problem, insofar as
it relates to women and children,
is on the farm. It is there we find
the moth^if klrenched in perspira-
tion, and tlie child, its lips wet
with mother’s milk, wielding the
hoe and gathering the harvest, toil-
ing day in and day out without
hope of^reward.
The City Life Puny.
The farm women work from sun
until sun. They do their house-
work and lull a half million babes
to sleep after the chickens go to
roost and thej^. get breakfast and
milk the cows before the lark sings.
The city woman frequently chafes
under hardships that the farm wom-
en would consider a blessing. The
city people are great talkers and
oftimes greatly magnify their
troubles and enlarge their accom-
plishments. This characteristic per-
meates organized society as well as
enters into the individual life of
