£h?rs'§ B9tljio' so good for Farmer
Beh as the smell of the hew turned,
over dirt in the spring. I never can
forget the smell of the new breakin' of
the virgin sod of the prairie fifty years
ago. It seems like it was riches than
ever since. There's something about it
that rejuvenates and happvfies. If
some of those town women would1 get
out and work in the garden regular it
it would be abetter tonic and appetizer
and invigorator than all the medicine
you could pile in a freight car, I just
liv in the dirt now hoein' and plantin'
and plowin', and when
it
comes meal
time I can mow a swarth rite across
the table. There's sometbin' about
workin' in the
dirt
it
that reduces nerv­
ousness and sets the thinkin' machine
goin' regular app^S^feeum^ics:
and dyspepsy and Crossiiess. There's
nothin' so interestin' as to watch gar-,
den stuff grow unless its children.
Our gal Sarah says that I ain't had
my yearly shot at the commencement
dress extrav and that it's time. Well,
here goes. I alwus claimed that the
effort to dress over expensiv by gradu
ates worked hardship to those who
can't afford to spend for silks and
satins. It is the correct thing for all
the grads to agree on some simple in
expensiv dress and then all adopt it.
