trimming border edx cutting dead wood out of ahruba building bonfires transplanting few thing her and there putting in a bit of early garden and en joying it all for the lost few years partner has looked after the lawns but now we are alone he has plenty of other jobs to keep him busy so 1 have taken over grass cutting operation agajn itlght away 1 felt a new mower wan a necessity partner would probably have managed with the old one there is something about a new mower it sort of given you enthusiasm you might not otherwise feel and one needs enthusiasm far the grass there is to cut around here however i dont do jt all at once but follow ing partners advice i spread it over a three or four day period and then start all over again in between gardening and get ting meals i manage a bit of read ing a bit of writing and keep one ear turned to the radio for the highlights of the day sometimes i drop off to sleep in the middle of a broadcast working outside sure makes you sleepy now dont let anyone suggest anything else of course its the- outside air that does it it couldnt be that im getting old well the cost of living is up another two cents and this time the powers that be blame it on butter of all things how could that be when about 75 per cent af ihe people art- supposedly eating margarine better think that over again mr howe it didnt sound like a verj good guess to us this morning the dog and j walked around the farm just to see what the probs were for meet ing this increased cost of living the dogs had a great time once all i could see of honey was her fat little rump sticking out of a grourfdhog s hole well the wheat wis looking good one field of clover wis not too bad iind another very poor the fall ploughing is still far too wet to work although some of our neighbours are out on the land at the barn there was n cnlf thre hours old and a stable full of healthy looking cows as long as the cows keep milking and our health and strength euch as it is holds out we shall probably keep the wolf from the door but you never can tell with animals they are here todav and gone tomorrow one neighbour lost a fresh cow last week 150 gone right off the bat sometimes i think it wouldnt be i bad ide i if every fa mil v had i cow in its own backyard we wouldnt hear so much about the prite of milk then but of course the rllk from vour cow wouldnt b worth 20c a quart just 4c the same os the farmer gets and it wouldnt be pasteurized unless vou did it ourself out of e erv 4c it would take at least 1c to fetd the cow then someone would hae to milk her night and morning fe d and water her clean her stall and bed her dow n w ith straw tiobibh ou would soon discover that cleaning out even one stall is just ils hard work as shovelling sinuv or tending a coal furnace nd of course the w hole fumll touldnt pile into the car and go off fur the week end either sum- mi i or w inter someone must ita home and look after the cow given proper are bosie should milk for it li ast time months twice a dav night and morning don t forget during that time n ou w ould have to net her bred or else ha e a boarder on our hands at the end of her lactation period well mr urbaniu how do ou like the idea a cow in our gar age instead of a car you couldn t er well have both no rpilk to buv an unlimited supplv for the children cream off the milk for vour coffee mother might even save enough to make butter think of the advantages all that just for an hour work night und morn ing of course ou would first have to pav out good hard cash for your cow and
