and all the odd jobs that must be

handling their regular farm work. and
now Carlson and Darth have joined
them and are cultivating the sugar
cane. Collingwood and his team are
doing roust-about work, and MerrePs
team is still on the wood-hauling job.
Between Satnan and Lindsey the Ford
son is doing long days. Lindsey tunes
it up at daylight and plows and farms
in general until AL has breakfast, then
Fordson goes to hauling logs until sup

on the job until dark. In this way we
