While our days are usually ser- one, due to the farmers who en- joy and are well experie ced in the care of -the livestock, there n.¢=vertheless appears times like morning when one of them or both. may discover with dis- may an animal in'stable or sty or fold in the early stages of a. misery. At once symptoms are noted. causes explored to deter- mine the nature of the ailment -~— maybe a home remedy is ad- ministered though increasingly more of late we notice they have come to depend on the services of the veterinarians, whom they call. So this morning when a come- ly yearling. heiferr showed no in- clination for breakfast, 1 call went out along our rural line, skinned to an urban one and be- fore long to the farmers’ relief, professional help was at hand. .. _ We are often amused at the case with. which our young fry can recognize at a glance the can of those folks whose lives touch ours on the farm: the vet- eri narian's machine. those of buy- ers from -this or that packing- hmise or ‘‘plant,'' or the individ- ual drovers and salesmen who contributing in part to our life and living come in and go out of fine yards.

You do so much good for so many people, and prob- .ably most of them never have .had to write you themselves. They are helped by reading your answers to others. I have always honestly won- dered about the institution oi marriage; and in your column of ,Feb. 27, you illuminated the sub- ject about as well as I ever care to have it done. ‘ . I think the so-called ideal‘mar- riage, that the majority of people are seeking. is almost never found. Life in marriage (as com- pared to the “ideal”) leaves so, much to be desired, that ofttiimes married people consider them-‘* solves the unhappiest of all. MARRIAGE IS SHELTER If they could know at the start, or learn to know as they go along, is a shelter for human nature, a providential sort of arrange- ment for protecting humanity tram its own weakness and way- 'w‘ardnesr ‘mild’ l-n-stai;villty." It would be such a help; and make for so much more understanding and happiness in the world. I k-now. My own experience, and the lives of others I lmow, are prool positive. I believe that less is known about the real reason for marriage than almost anything else in the world. And I am so hoping that you will fiurflher ex- pound your notion that “this unit- plan (marriage) is of di-vine‘ori— gin, conceived and established to sanctify the creation, and guar- antee the long term moral nu-r- ture, of human beings.” .
