tanned for periods of study. be-
cause of the seasons, is probably
the most difficult and expert in
the world.

nc by a simple direction. Go
down and harness the gray mules
to the disc and leave il at the
Southeast Forty. I'll be watching
those ewes up toward Miller
Spring, but If have TO 60 over
10 see the fellow al the cream
cry. you'll have 10 deliver them.
See the lambs are warm and
then see TO milking and feeding
the cows
This is possible direction for
any Spring day. The most cas-
ual study Of these instructions
should show why the farmers
are not much interested in anna
tours.
They are not tremendously in
tercSted in raw labor. and they
don't care to engage in the OBJ
vlouS complications that attend
" farmerettes, ' if there are any.
To put IL quite frankly, in this
war as in the last one. they are
mildly alarmed about silly little
DANES who annoy the hired man
and the young son and mess
things up in general in critical
times To be still more brutal,
