' ' ? - . ! ?Spring
is Coming
The Winter's drawing to a
close, soon Spring will gambol
on the hills and February* drifted
snows will be reduced to tinkling
rills.
There'll soon he hustle on the
farm, the boss will hump the
long day through, and he'll be
viewing with alarm, he'll have,
so many chores to do. He'll
have to gather up the eggs and
haul and spread the rich manure
and saturate t'.ic old mare's legs
with Dr. Tinhorn's Spavin Cure.
He'll have to sharpen up his
plows, his hoes and discs, he'll
have to grind, and saw the
antlers off his cows, so they
won't hook each other blind.
He'll have to sort his corn for
seed, and load his truslv Galling
gun, so he can butcher every
weed as soon as it salutes the
sup. '
Oil there are forty million
things the modem farmer has to
do wh.n winter says good-by
and swings its frosted system out
of view. No matter where he
looks he'll see" enough work to
scare him dead; then fortunate,
indeed, is he who knows just
how to go ahead.
He's wise who has of useful
facts stored in his head a large
amount; lie gets results from all
his acts, and makes his everv
motion count.
In winter time when work is
slack, the husbandman can rest
and play; and then he ought to
take a whack at good farm
papers everv dajT. For nowadays
the postman brings such mail to
each good farmer's door; it
makes him wise to many things
of which he never knew before.
It teaches system on the grange
and shows where profits should
begin; it tells of ever>' useful
change of modern methods that
will win.
It surely keeps the farmer man
who by his counsel has been led,,
and teaches him to plan his*,
work for days and weeks ahead.
So when the snrino- tim*? mcW
begins, he doesn't rattle
BfmeTbut goes about with
cheerful grins and gets things
started off on time.
