- LIFE ON The FARM. *

1t was my good fortune to be
raised on farm. And to be "rais
ed" pretty often, too, which was
by no means joyous then, but,
suppose saved me from my due al.
lowance of punishment when la.
ter in life, / went away TO school
to that Napoleon and master OF
boys, Mr.. A.
My boyhood was very pleasant
indeed, except that part of the
year from March the first to the
first of July. As this season APP.
preached, it would mean to me
the drawing near of days in which,
for the most part, ! could say, 81
have no pleasure in them" The
flowers and song-birds which they
brought, blossomed and sang not
for me. Every beauty was paled
by the fact that ! must now leave
Off my idle and easy young life at
school and begin work on the
farm.
How often ! thought of the long,
long sleep of Rip Van Wrinkle,
and bitterly grudged to kim not
all of it, but / should have been
satisfied to have given him nine
teen years and eight months, if |
could have only have had the priv
ilege of falling into a four months
sleep on March 1st, with the prom
Use of being walked on July lst in
time to help eat water melons and
go fishing.
As time would pass / would
come more and more to dread my
lot The days would seem so very
longl ! often found myself some
what as the poet sang:
san infant crying in the light,
An infant crying for the night"
1t would seem to me that some
Joshua would command the sun to
stand still every day about the
time it had reached it's zenith,
while the dinner bell would be
dumb with silence and open not
it's mou tn and | would have to
content myself by singing "Some-
times How Long Seems the Day a"
At times from my perch on
my pillow in the back part of the
plantation, | would gaze with I'M
utterable longing at the old white
house under the hill, half hidden
by the apple trees in front of it.,
and rendered more cool and pleas
ant looking by the forest of beech,
oak and chestnut stretching away
in the distance back of it. How
beautiful it all did look to me !

ion of that sleep THAT knits up

as waving palm grove to the
