HAVING TIME IN VERMONT.
(By Daniel L. Cady.)

There's something more to "haying time"
Than just machinery's rafting rhyme;
Than Hoorah Boys and Men and Teams!
Than sagging sheds and hot highbeams;
Than scratching rake and crawling cart
And snakes bsected through the heart
What Is It?
There's something more than caloused
hands
And stiff old neck and pouring glands;
Than grinding scythes while yet it's night
And doing chores by Dog Star light;
Than being forced at last to hire
A lame man and the village liar
What Is II?
here's something more than blistered skin
And bed too tired to wiggle in;
Than lodging through the appletrees
To shake squad OF bumblebees;
Than carting in your crop SO wet
You know tho middle bent" will sweat
What Is It?
There's more than cussing mice and moles
And getting mad at woodchuck holes:
Than having half your load slide off
In sight OF folks a-playing golf;
Than chasing wandering Pats and Petes
That turn your haycaps into sheets
What Is II?
There's more than pitching on" so swift
Your pipe goes out each time you lift;
Than picking out" the Pratt lot swale
And drying timothy with hail;
Than trips to Hastings blacksmith shop
To make that pounding pitman stop
What is II?
They say there's nothing folks will shirk
Much quicker than a hard days work.
And yet. there's nothing anywhere
That cures more Ills or kills more care;
No Sir: there's nothing meath the sun
Compared with red-hot work we'll done
IL that II?

BACK TO THE LAND"
Max l.. Powell. Home from Canadian
Northwest. IL Optipistic.

Northwest. IL Optiwistic.
Max L. Powell. who has been on an ex-
| tended trip to the Canadian Northwest,
has returned to town. A Free Press re-
porter upon hearing Of Mr.. Powells re-
turn, saw him in his Office late yesterday
| afternoon and after much Interrogation
| succeeded in eliciting the following infor-
nation concerning conditions in that coun-
try:
THE farmers OF Saskatchewan are in
the main very prosperous at this time.
Two dollar wheat this year. event II the crop
is only an average crop. will mean large
returns to the farmers. The acreage Is
| some larger this year than last but many
parts Of the country are suffering for
rain."
Mr.. Powell continued: 'At this time
last year the crop prospects were never
brighter. but the heat and rust of August
made havoc in many sections. II rain
comes in the near future 1t will do Won
ders for the crop.
1.-THE agricultural development Of that
country during the past ten years is re-
markable and it Is always for me an in
spiration to visit that country and to see
the prosperity attendant upon good hus-
bandry.
Farmers who. few years ago, had
buildings as fine as the Iowa farmers. and
are getting fully as big returns in money
on their land that they homesteaded or
bought at SIS per acre as the Iowa farmer
Is getting on land that he holds at $500 per
acre."
Mr. Powell added: II sold on this trim
two sections Of land at SIS per acre. one Of
them to farmer who purchased of me
only few years ago. who has paid UP in
full and is worth at this time at least $22,.
600. This is only one of hundreds of cases.
The farmer who farms right is bound to
get fair crop every year.
''The farmer who puts his crop in on stub
BILE or on braking and expects Providence
to do the rest usually learns the meaning
OF the adage God helps the man who
helps himself
There Is a big back to the land move-
ment throughout western Canada, and
after the war a large immigration Is ex.
pected."
