WHEN THE BLIZZARD COMES
From Farm Journal)

From Farm JournaD
o Mani tonight beside your Chin
ney's glare,
Or cuddled snugly in your blankets
warm,
Where are the poor dumb creatures
Of your care,
Are they left out TO shiver in the
Storm
Where is the horse that through
the summer days
His load OF CALLING harness meekly
bore,
And pulled your pillow down the
long aisles Of maize,
Then drew the harvest to your
granary door,
Where is the COW that answers to
your call,
Whose bullying udder overflows your
pail?
Rests she tonight in a straw-bed-
ded stall?
Or does she SILVER in the piercing
gale? -.
Where are your sheep, your hogs.
and chickens. too?
God gave them TO you as earthly
dover;
He made you master OF them all,
and you
Must some day answer how you
used your power.
Compliments OF
The Woman's Auxiliary Of the
Kentucky Humane Society.
