five and one half million men, wo-

At New Home where they farm
with a vim,
Prizes at the county fair to win.
We pick potatoes in pals to the
brim,
And carry in our squashes by the

And our beans as you know,
We have threshed before the
falling snow,
Gather our corn and fill our bin
And then our hay to be hauled in.
Our garden truck we put away
To be devoured the short winter
day.
Our kraut barrel to be filled,
And cucumbers to be picked in
dill.
We will roast our shins by the
fire
Because it is too cold to pillow
Then we will eat what's laid
away
For the short, snowy winter day.
Then good people why do you
roam,
Why don't you come out to New
Home?
Then you can investigate and
see
That am not putting you up a
tree.
Crops are looking fine at New
