Life of Farmer Is Not Easy

THE back-to- farm movement which has
] been gaining considerable impetus these
days is a movement paved with difficulty hard
work and worry and surrounded by heartbreak.
To the ninitiated, the thought Of farm with
its lovely fields, its trim and resh-painted
buildings, its fat live stock and its cackling
hens, its orderly rows Of vegetables and bloom
ing orchards, Is most enticing. The outdoor
life, the abundance of food, the honey-sweet,
fresh-picked ears Of corn, the frothy pals Of
newly drawn milk, the distant tinkle Of cow
bell the hearty chug Of an AK biting into q
log, the smell Of new hay the rush Of a brook
tumbling down over rocky bed, these and q
hundred other impressions drawn from visits
to farm or from auto trip through an
agricultural section build up an impression Of
an idyllic life to be had upon the farm.
Perhaps such an existence Is possible upon O
farm provided the owner is so blessed with
capital that he can hire others to do the work
and confne his own activities to those tasks
which for the moment inspire him and which
can be dropped when the effort becomes irk-
some But to the man farming FOR living the
picture is different.
The fresh paint upon his buildings represents
cost not measured in dollars, but In hours Of
manual labor producing some crop for cash
that can be turned over into paint. The lovely
helds are so many acres that must be plowed,
sometimes If Spring rains are late, when the
earth Is 50 heavy it clings in weighty coatings
to his boots and adds hundredfold to the
drain upon his energy. The spreading acres
mean cultivation when the sun Is bhstering.
They mean hours Of worry lest the numerous
insect pests invade his fields to destroy his
crops. They represent his years work, which
may be almost wiped out in few brief hours Of
hard storm at the wrong time.
The orderly rows of vegetables stand as a
monument to hours of back breaking, tedious
wedding that the vegetables may have chance
to survive the constant warfare between rank
growth and the carefully nurturti crops the
farm seeks to produce. The blooming orchards
must be sprayed every 10 days and when q
bumper crop comes in, it sometimes costs more
to pick and ship the fruit than the market
will pay for it.
The Irothy milk will spoil in a few hours in
Summer unless 1t is promptly cooled and kept
below So degrees and in Winter it will freeze
and lose much Of its flavor If not kept above
the freezing point. The fat-sided live stock
must be fed The grazing in the open fields is
picturesque, but It must be supplemented with
grain and in Winter tedious hours of shoveling
through ,snowdrifts is often a prelude to the
feeding OF the live stock, while the problem Of
water involves chopping through thick layers

She looked at me sort OF uncomprehendingly.
How much will be the cost Of the operation

"Oh, two, perhaps three. thousand dollars"
IT can let you have it," I said defantly.
She looked at me sort of startled with eyes
that had suddenly grown wide with well,
think, it was probably appreciation "Oh that's
wonderfully kind of you she smiled. But
couldn't think Of"
Sure you can," I interrupted, Il insist
upon it."
Well, long argument ensued, but finally
ended up with victory for me. Phyllis agreed
to take the money, and I told her that I
would give her a check for it in the morning
Three thousand plunkers! Half of all had

says THE gift without the giver is bare"
You so sweet" she murmurred, as she
sat there gazing off into space.
After interval of silence put my arm
around her and said, do you love me, dearest?
Say you love mel"
She didn't answer me with words; but words
are so inadequate anyway. I had my answer
in the softness of her eyes, in the impetuous
heaving Of her bosom knew she loved me.
We walked slowly back to the hotel. Phyllis
chung to my arm and sort of leaned against
me- and it a marvellous sensation that
went through me.
1t was about an hour after breakfast the
the end of the porch found me sitting in
rocker on the west veranda. I was sitting
around there because it was shady AS Phyllis
came closer noticed that she carried tele-
gram in her hand.
I'm SO happy" the beautiful girl was saying,
kind of dreamily, more to herself, I thought,
than to me- I couldn't understand why she
had said that-about being happy-when her
brother was so sick, unless it was because she
realized our wonderful love for each other. I
wondered how much she really did love me. If
it were only a tenth much as I loved her I
would be satisfied.
had the check In my pocket which had
promised her the evening Before. I had gone
to town earlier and had it certified so she
would have no trouble getting it cashed i'm
mediately when she got home. Yes, it was
much better for her to wait till she got home
before cashing the check. for there was no
sense in running the risk of carrying so much
currency on her person.
But as stood there gazing at Phyllis, while
my Agners hunted for the check which was
MIXED up with some other papers in my pocket,
I thought she looked more beautiful and allur-
ing than had ever seen her. I thought how
wonderful it would be for me to sit down In that
big chair there and hold her in my lap a while.
But how could get her sitting in my lap?

What is it, dearest?" said. had never

I stood there feeling kind Of chagrined for a

In the middle Of o piece-especially with q
woman you have never danced with before,
and didn't know whether she liked to take
little steps or big ones; so, unfortunately, I
stepped on her toes q few times as we were
getting into step with the music. But I knew
that I hadn't hurt them half rs much as
mine were hurting me, even though she did
say "OW!" once or twice, just playful-hke.
But after little while we got going pretty
good.
1T love to dance, don't your" said, and
smiled at her real dreamily.
"Sometimes-" she admitted
IT could dance with you forever" comph
mented, you have such a marvellous sense of
rhythm"
But just at this time I noticed some fellow
coming toward Us, looking as though he was
going to try to tag Phyllis away from tne, so
I danced as fast as could toward the other
corner Of the ball room. But he was a
fpersistent guy and kept following us, and
was just saying to myself, We'll guess I'll
have to lose her for while but I'll get her
back again, when the music stopped. And
you know, it's against the rules to tag a girl
after the music has stopped. He giared at
me kind of balefully, but I didn't care.
Luckily 1t proved to be intermisson, and I
gave Phillis my arm and We walked out there
where the moonlight was.
Other couples were sitting around on
benches, on the balustrade Of the veranda and
different places-most Of them with their arms
about one another, some Of them kissing.
And as I gazed at Phyllis she, too, seemed
Extremely kssable looking as she strolled by
my side in the soft moonlight. I wondered
u dared do such a thing? wondered If 1t
would make her mad. wondered If my lips
we're good enough for her precious beautiful

Well, I guided her down the marble steps

DROFTTING by the experience of former out-

live stock herds of this country, 1t took just
10 days for agricultural experts to put down
an outbreak Of foot and mouth disease In Cali

swine, the extent Of the spread Of the infec-

virulent as some, the measures taken were
