Discomfort

The dispensations Of Providence are
strange indeed: During the summer.
just passed our farm lands were
baked to aafrazzle by the continued
heat and lack Of moisture, and great
damage to crops was the result. Dur
ing the past week, when there has not
been much use for water, we have
had several downpours of rain. But
us humans are hard to please. Some
Of US would kick If we were sent
