With the sun peeping over the Big - Hill earlier each morning' and linger­ ing longer in the afternoon sky, a per- ! son on the farm just naturally looks I towards Spring., I’ve found also that l it’s wise to make preparations now for i the balmy season, rather than wait for LOCAL AND PERSONAL Miss Annie McKinnon is visiting with her sister in Toronto.

' pleasant weather make > you want to ; curl up on a sweet-smelling bundle Of i hay in the mow and lazy in, a day at a stretch. • There's new life on the farm these days . . . with Grunter, our discon­ tented Berkshire, expecting a litter and the ewes bringing bleating lambs into the world each day. We can look forward to the foals and soon Mrs, Phil will be worrying about eggs for setting and the passageways will be cluttered up with "clucking” hens. The barnyard must also be cleaned out and its accumulation dispensed ov­ er the fields for the benefit of the crops that we will grow this summer. With hay going down in the east mow . . . plans must be made for the stack at the first meadow fence to be drawn up before our supply gets down too low. Odd hours, can always be used in cleaning seed grain -and bagging it up to await the formaldehyde treatment and the eventual sowing. If a man wanted to count the jobs in earnest he mustn’t forget the potatoes and the roots that need picking over and the harness that needs mending to with­ stand the strain of hard work. While we will, no doubt, have other storms in the days to come they will not seem like much when we have al­ ready had a taste of the glorious wea­ ther to come. And. speaking of fine weather reminds me not -to forget the sap pails and-pan and a trip to the bush to see how our sugar house has wintered. When Spring first comes and the birds start returning then we will be busy with maple syrup and sugar. With the best intentions in the world I went to the driving shed this afternoon. I don’t remember what I was after, but I intended working no matter what actually happened. Rum­ maging, in an old box I came upon ar tattered and dog-eared copy of a book that must have been chucked In there years before. On closer examination I came to find that it was "Peck’s Bad Boy”. You remember that book. Your education was sorely neglected if you have never read that amazing -story. The old buggy seat was handy and having a pocketful of apples .from the pit which I had intended taking to the house, T relaxed for a moment to per­ use Once more the thrill of*a book that in my younger days father frown­ ed upon as being frivolous and serving no useful or educational purpose. What a boy! I suppose that half­ contained desire in every man’s heart to be just a trifle of the daredevil makes this book a favorite. The pranks of that boy and his devilish­ ness in tormenting his father and oth­ er characters are enough to delight any one’s taste for literature. I must tonfess, that I forgot everything bitt skimmed along through the pages of the book, living once more the days when I managed to lie on my stom­ ach in the hay mow with one eye cocked through a knot-hole watching tor father to come out from dinner to TESTED RECIPES SERVE EGGS EVERY DAY — SOME WAY In comparison with many foods which are served both raw and cook­ ed, eggs lead in the number of ways in which (they can be used. Scrambled, poached, cooked-in-the-shell, or as an omelet, good, fresh eggs make an ap­ peal to the most fastidious taste, Combined with other foods, eggs may be used for a great number -of desserts and supper dishes, and in making of cakes and cookies, eggs are one of the principal ingredients. There is now no guess work in buy­ ing eggs, as they are sold graded ac­ cording to Government standards as to quality and size.
