BIZ GLAD
BY MARIANNE FARNINGHAM

BY MARIANNE BIRMINGHAM
Be glad when the flowers have fsdedl
Be glad when the trees are bare9
When the fog lies thick On the fields
and moors,
And the frost is in the ART
When all around Is g desert,
And the clouds obscure the light,
When there are nc songs for the dark,
est day,
No stars for the longest night9
Be glad when the world is lonely,
And the heart has been bereft3
When of all the loves Of the young
springtime
Scarcely q friend is left7
Be glad in the desolate valley
After the sunny hills3
When the joy Of the morning is far
behind,
And the gloom it's task tulhlls4
Be glad when the heart is failing,
And the brain is losing power,
And the cunning skill Of the strong
right hand
Wearies in one short hours
We are glad in the merry morning,
And glad al the noon again,
But the black midnight is q tired time
Do we look for gladness then9
All, yes, for the truest gladness
Is not in ease and mirth;
It has it's home in the heart Of God,
Not in the loves Of earth.
Gods love is the sam9 forever,
If the skies are bright or dim,
And the Joy Of the morning lasts all
day
When the heart is glad in him.

Every farmer who has not had the
advantages Of a cours at an agricul
tursl college should read it, and should
also sac that his boys read it, We be
lieve it would pay any farmer to do
without a new pIow if necessary in
order to purchase this book. 1t is time
to get out Of the old ruts; time to quit
planting corn and killing hogs ''in the
moon ;" time to quit letting timothy
hay go to seed because it lasts longer
time, in short, to learn that farming is
as much a business as banking and the
progressive farmer must study his
business just as the banker does. This
book helps those who read it to do these
things; helps them to get into the cur
rent OF progressive agriculture

the last day of the summer season.
But the summer temperature remains
with us all the same. The meadows
and foliage are still green and fresh
and there are no visible signs of the
Fall which dates from tomorrow
But the days are shorter. The sun is
losing its power, and in a few brief
days more the hoary frost Will begin
to spoil the summer visage. Nobody,
however, will complain that we have
not had enough of high temperature.
