A prince of splendi l men,
W Ijo plans Ins work with utmost
care,
A nd starts the year to win;
A man whose stores are alwavs

With lrui.s of honest toil.
Who lives at home and laughs at
Wars—
A baron of the soil!
Here’s to the farmer big ot heart.
A friend and neighbor true,
Who lends a hand in all good
works
And lends it freely, too,
May health and wealth and sweet

Ilis noble efforts bless,
And bring to him what he deservs,
A crown of rich success!
