corn and oat sheaves through an old
thrashing machine. This plan entire
~ prevented the heating of the fodder

There should be a weekly gathering
of social sort maintained in every
country community during the winter
months. 1t may be literary musical,
terpsichorean or just simply social. The
more the people of a neighborhood see

SEPTEMBER DAYS.
From the day when the first faint
| flush of color is seen on the south side
of the big maple down by the creek in
| the pasture lot until the last of the
Indian summer days in November is
the most delightful season of the whole
year for the north country. AS the sea-
sons come and go they bring with them
| no days laden with so much of tender
grace, sentiment and rare beauty as
these, when the mysterious transition
takes place from the opulent and
| tropical summer to the days which
mark the decline of the year, when
| highway and field are robed in the re-
gal green and gold of the harvest time.
Full of hope, new life and activity are
the resurrection days of the spring.
Still, they painfully suggest the end
less toll and endeavor of life-work-
ing, planting, building, toiling. These
merge into the torrid, forceful, electric
summer days, when nature is in a ma
jestic, powerful and tempestuous
mood; when lightning flash, destroying
| flood and cyclones path mutilate and
mar the face of nature and the work
of man. Then comes a change; the
elemental war subsidies, and one day
by the roadside you see the goldenrod
in bloom, and. seeing it there comes to
you a delightful sense that the strife
is over that nature is at last In a quiet
and restful mood, and you enjoy in a
dreamy, happy way, just as the sick
who peacefully rest after the pain
and agony of disease that has at last
| been broken and subdued. These are
the days of recompense. Nature now
distributes her prizes, pays out her
| dividends. The bending boughs of the
| orchard, the great stacks of grain and
| hay, the gable and cackle of the well
stocked poultry yard, all the ripened
products of farm, orchard and garden,
suggest rewarded toll and labor's
recompense. May the beautiful story
told each year by the goldenrOd of the
field foreshadow for us all goldenrod
days as we pass into the autumn time
of life, and with its rest and peace may
there come a fruitful and abundant
harvest, rich reward for the toll and
endeavor of the summer days Of life
forever porpi
