Keeping the corn. potatoes and gar
den cultivated. Ii sure is a very
busy time for tho farmers not say
ing anything about the dozen or
more cows there are to milk, and sep
arating the ream from the milk.

it isn't real play to wash a dozen

squeeze in a little more time when
the berries and other fruit begins to
get ripe, won't we, farmer pals?
