Farmer's Calendar.

THEY used to say that all work
and no play makes Jack a dull
boy, and it is just so. Rest is all
right in its place, no doubt, and

there is a time to rest as well as a
time to work. To make this a
happy new year, we must find the.
true place for each, and look out

and not fall into the ruts. No need
to keep the mind all the time on
the stretch, but when the time
comes to work, let us throw life

and spirit into it, and do with our
might what the hands find to do.
Set about the right thing, do it
well, and keep at it. Some folks

go through the world with eyes

wide open, and some as if they

were half asleep. Let us learn how

to live, how to think, how to act,
learn to use the eye and the ear,
and to keep every sense awake.
By the way, why don't you give
the cows a bit of salt now and then,
what is better, keep a big lump

it all the time? Don't you think
they need it now as much as they
do in the spring and fall? Don't
you know that more'n half the

time going off through the skin
and the kidneys? Where are they
to get it?
