In their frolics the. boys decided to drive the young pigs through an Opening in the fence. The sow was not in sight at the time. but when one of the. pigs squealed, themother rushed from the other side of the. barn to the aid of the young ones. The. older Hisey lad was able to escape the mad fury of the sow. but his young; brother was less fortunate and in a few seconds he. had been horribly bitten about the face, arms and legs by the infuriated heast. which was aided by the young; ones. His father was in the barn at. the time and heard the. lad's eries for help but when en- dezjivoring to make an exit. he found thu door locked from the. inside. He immediately rushed to another door and out into the barnyard and was able. to drive the pigs away from the prostrate hody of his son.

Driving on the. farm of Frank Webb, just the other side of Arthur, where they had been, collecting honey from one of their bee plants, they assayed to moss a private wooden b1 ldge with their motor truck when two of the. four beams of the bridge gave way and they were precipitated into about three feet of water. The truck was turned upside down and the brothers found themselves._'bei'0re they knew it. in the water and imprisoned .in the cut». Luckily they were not pinned down and were able to get air. and after a little to make their way outside where. they could survey their truck with its wheels in the air and the collapsed bridge that caused their mishap.

An hour, later he saw his Zenions displayed conspicuously in front of the Astore, at fifteen cents per pound, and his wrath rose. He Iliad heard a great dealr about “middlemen and. the enormous pro- fits they make,_ but never before: had he experienced such highway robbery, at least that is what he called it to himself. Shortly after he had a chance to trade his farm for a flourishing grocery store and a big house in a good little country town and got two thousand dollars to boot. \He turned middleman on the spot. ? The owner was. old and wanted to retire. as the life was? too strenuous for him. At least,; that was the. reason. the storekeep-i (‘1' gave for wanting the farm. He could rent :tlmt. out, but. he could not rent out a grocery store, he, said. The farmer turned middleman, bought oniOns at seven cents per pound and sold them at tifteen. He bought green peas from the farm- ers and sold them. at twice as much as he paid. But between buying and selling hangs a tale. The peas shriveiled and decreased in weight 'and the onions rotted because of poor weather conditions, so that he was thankful to come out even on both. He found that g'cen veget- ables are the most. risky things on earth. unless it be fruit. You can lose all the profit for a week Off other things by having a few crates of berries turn soft. before you can sell them. or peas get slimy and unsaleable in the hot weather. Also he. found that. many people buy their non-perishable groceries at the chain ‘stores and expect the regular man to carry fruit and vegetables.t‘or them. He discovered that trade in country towns is shot to pieces by mail-order houses and chain stores. He. had always dealt with one grocer for everything and supposed others did the same. He learned about. bad debts, and could from his window, see. people who owed him. money planking down money in the chain store because they had to. The lovely big house that went with the store became a nightmare for his wife to care for besides the expense of up- keep. t‘or she had to help him in the store right. along. They could not. afford to hire high-priced, in- competent clerks. even with doub- ling their money on peas and on- ions. as their friends reminded them continually they were doing. Many a night his wife remained up till midnight trying to save the good parts of spoiling fruit. he. himself sorted berries until he never wanted to eat any more all his life. Besides all that. he had to subscribe to this, contribute to that. until the burden grew to be a real menace. “You have to be a good fellow," the committee an- nounces as it waits on the mer- chants.

His reason for Wishing to trade is that his health demands that he go back to the country as quickly as possible. He doesn’t wish to be asked anything about taxes or bad debts or fifteen hours of work daily. He wants to “swap jobs” with a farmer who is “tired of the drudgery of farming” and all that he, himself, used to com- plain about. He has tried being a middleman long enough.

The abnormal longevity of the employees of firms which produce Vinegars, sauces, and condiments is remarkable. In some instances the workmen en- gaged in the distilling of vinegar have. been in the service of their respective firms for between sixty and seventy years. “The average age of the heads of departments here is seventy!” said an employer. “To have three or four generations of a family at work in tire Vinegar distillery at the same time is quite common."
