THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF CANADA O O O The signs of spring are' everywhere these days, and the folks in town or in the country can take in these won- derful sights if they care to take a few minutes, In town, the sure signs of spring are children with their tri- oycles and roller skates, dogs rolling on the lawns, smoke pouring from piles of old leaves and twigs that have just been raked from the lawns, storm windows being removed and amateur gardeners getting out among the bulbs in the flower beds. In the country many of these same signs are to be found;but there are others. The cattle are getting restless in the stable and start to rattle their chains and stamp around every time the door is opened. The gravely knolls are drying up with the warm sun and spring winds and farmers are getting ready for seeding. The implements are being pulled out of the shed and oiled up for seeding. The oil is being changed in the tracor and the truck, fences are being fixed and sap pails gathered up for the season. Curtains are being stretched on the lawns, car- pets beaten on the clothesline, and children are heading for the creek with fishing poles. Some are even slipping off their shoes and socks when watchful parents have turned their eyes the other way, eager to feel the soil between their toes. Ag the weather warms up, and the farmers get out on the soil, we begin another one of those glorious growing seasons. Farmers work hard to pre- pare the soil, plant the seed, cover it up again, and fence the cattle out. But nothing that man can do will make that seed grow. It is a power far greater than that of man alone, that makes possible the evolution of growth. Perhaps that is one of the greatest advantages of being a farm- er. The pleasure of working with nat- ure, of toiling hand in hand with Someone, far greater than ordinary man, It is a privilege that cannot be enjoyed by the man who operates a machine. This sense of satisfaction is one of the many things that makes the farmer feel independent of others. This is the greatest reason why far- mers should be proud of their pro- fession. Don't say that you are "Only a farmer," when someone asks you about your profession. Push back your shoulders, stick out your chest, and say "I am a farmer and proud of it." This spring plant a few of these seeds of pride along with the ones that you plant in the fields. You'll find that the returns will be just as great, just as profitable and just as satisfac- tory as the yields from your crops.
