Now, I am not a farmer, but I work just as hard, and I ant not afraid to work. If I could go to the front 1 would willingly go. There would 'be enough left behind to work the ground; but as for 'him to say to take the boys from the pen and put them in the front line until right, for there boys in the pen. who are not to blame. He is just screen- ing his own jacket. Now, I have a dear boy at the front, and Mr. Farm er"s boy is no better than mine, and not so good if he shirks his duty. If I buy anything off a farmer I have to pay the highest price for it, and I am a poor mother Hke a lot more.
