 and, by the force of a dominant will, intelligently invite their 

 flocks and herds out into ever-broadening fields of service. Here 

 is the demand for economy of nerve force on the part of the pro- 

 ducer ; here the opportunity to make the conscious and unconscious 

 forces of nature yield greater returns ; here the field wherein waste 

 forces are to be utilized, sympathetic relations established and our 

 agriculture made real, positive, strong, invigorating and attractive 

 to the coming generation.
