THE FARMER BOY.

Pulling the weeds from the garden
Driving the COWS home at night.
Dropping the corn In the springtime
Mailing a pale on tight:
Hunting for eggs in the barnyard,
Looking for turkeys astray,
Carrying lunch to the reapers,
Tossing the ncw-mown hay;
Riding the horses to water,
Feeding the chickens and cows,
Throwing the hay to the managers.
Down from the fragrant mows;
Whitewashing corn-cribs and fences
Gathering fruit from the trees,
Covering flower beds in autumn,
For fear Of an early freeze
Pumping the clear, cold water,
Choppng an arm-load Of wood
These are the farmboy's gymnastics;
They're cheap, but none the less good

of these goes by the name of pig

good Idea of what this sport Is like

noblemen. In this instance Sir Pertab
managed to give the finishing stroke to
the pig while his horse jumped over II,

to do. The pig, which had already
been stuck, was on its hind legs trying
to cut at the horse with It's tusks.
