This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900. Excerpt: ... AT NIGHT WHEN THE CHORES IS DONE. There ain't much rest fur a farmer from spring to end of summer; If he keeps his work up snug and tight he's got to be a hummer. He ain't got time to set around and think of takin' pleasure When twelve to sixteen hours he gits of laber's fullest measure. But along late in October when the leaves hev tumbled down, An' the woods an' fields an' hillsides are all turnin' dry and brown, When his appetite is sure to be in keepin' with the season, An' calls fur roast pertaters, pork an' pancakes out of reason, Then life is worth the livin', for he's bound to hev some fun When he knocks off work an' goes th' house, at night when the chores is done.

What care you fur the driftin' snow when all is snug and warm? You set down by the kitchen fire an' listen to the storm, An' smell the sassage fryin'--the pretty cook's your wife--An' wonder how it comes that some don't like a farmer's life; Then Johnnie ...
