'Die farmers are very busy at
present. The tolling of bells can
be hoard in the early dawn, the
anvil rings as the plow hoy plods
his weary way across the lea, and
as the eun slowly rises above the
horizon, the centinual “gee haw”
f>n the hillsides goes to prove that
the farmer has gone to work ia
earnest. Who is it that cannot
sympathize with the honest farmer
as he toils through the long sum
mer days and makes, by the sweat
:of his brow, the various neccessi
ties of life, upon which we are all
dependent.*
