The man in tho street ha. s very little sympathy with and for the man on the street holding the false idea that the farmer is pampered by a paternal Government and gets far too many pr.vileges. This lack of appro, ciation is mutual, for the man, on the land, who is a slave to her Majesty tlie Cow, or as a general farmer to tlie vagaries of Nature, thinks the man in the street is so well looked after that ho is clothed and fed without tho trouble in many eases of having fo work for those privileges. Toni Blacken ha- some lines covering tlie ease in “Not Understood,” and an older port, Robert Burns, wrote the desire that men should seo themselves a.s they were seen by others. Many of our farmers have tm. much to> do and no union rates for overtimo hours ; many men in tho street have too little to do or are union-ruled.
