The busy season for the farmer. the
fruit grower and stock raiser is not far
distant. With the stock grower the
early spring is most critical time, for
his focks require extra care and feed
ing. The fruit growers troubles drop
in later, for frosts may require him to
smudge. The farmers work is pre-
paratory to the seasons crop-sowing
and is plenty to keep him busy from
the first of March.
