Boyle Yesterday was warm .and I noticed the first signs of Spring amongst the 'stock here at Lazy Meadows. Mrs. Phil thinks I'm a bit daft on that Score, but I have always' maintained that once you turn January and the sun gets warmer .. everything starts looking to Spring. That's a, bit of a hard theory to accept when we have a midden blizzard blon, up about the beginning of March, but having made the statement I'm willing to bide by it. A thaw in February is an event. After the cold, zero weather when the sun gets a little warmth, in it, your blood seems to run just a little faster, 'you get up some morning and look outside and it's hazy. On the way to the, barn you notice that the air hap a soft feel to it. The cows are bawl- iog just a little harder than usual and the pigs are shuffling around and squealing for their feed, When the milking 'is over and you've had break- fast you 'notice that the sun is out and the eaves are starting to drip up a little. Dirty patches are showing through the Snow in the laneway. The temperature in the stable has note up and the walls are sweating in the horse stable, On the sunny side of the barn, it's reasonably warm, Standing beside the gangway you notice that your old rubbers are start, ing to leak a little and from now On the rubber boots will be getting more work to do.
