The swallows go darting through
fragrant rains,
Then, all of sudden it SHOWS.
Feed the birds. You II need
'em next bug time.
Don't let the apples or potatoes
freeze. Sort out the rotten ones.
Don t speculate. Calculate, reg
ulate, hesitate, migrate if you
think you must, but never specul-
ate.
Is the harness tied up with
strings anywhere? Take them of
and do the best job of repairing
you ever did.
Get out some stuff for whiffle-
trees. Keep a little on hand all
the time, for you may need them
before you know it.
Have a bottle of rubber cement
on hand and some good glue. Fix
things, and do it while the other
work is not pressing.
Time is saved by doing now
much of the work usually done
in the busy spring, such as haul
ing stones, clearing away trees
and brush, fixing the grape arbor
etc.
Leave the job of climbing the
windmill to some one who is level
headed and strong in limb. Many
a serious accident has happened
by not living up to this rule.
Be thankful every day don I
pile your gratitude all on to one
day. The man who is thankful
only when the Governor says he
must, is never very thankful any
day.
With the present prices of beef,
which all authorities agree can
not be lowered, the production
of fat cattle on farms where the
work has long been forgotten
will be found profitable.
Are all the tools, from screw
driver to threshing machine, snug
ly housed9 They should be, but
if not it is not too late to bring
them in yet. Better do it now.
One of the best tools farmer
can have is a good riveter for
mending leather straps OF all
kinds. One of these will save a
good many trips to town and may
be more than one runaway.
Look after the pits where po-
tatoes and the like are stored,
and make sure that there is
enough earth or litter on them
to protect the contents from the
coolest weather. Neglect may
cause serious loss.
You've been working around
that one solitary big rock in the
field for years. Now, split it up,
blast it or get rid of it in some
way. A days work, or perhaps
less, makes the field perfectly
clean and smooth.

Bringing home unexpected
guests right at dinner or supper
time is often very trying to the
good wife. Politeness and hos

places, but you owe a duty first
to your wife and daughters.
Provide a stout sled, warm clo-
