Partner says, "If some of these
people wito buy thine could see the
work and worry we often have in
keeping it clean there Wouldn't be
so much grumbling about the price."
"Well," some people may ask,
"if you are dissatisfied, why go on
farming?" \Veil, why do we? It is
a question we often ask ourselves—
because - we
urselvesbecause-we are tempted to wonder
bontetimesI -
Perhaps the chief reason, as with
a good lnany other farm folk, is
because farming supplies a funda-
mental • need in our nature. The
farmer is independent—independent
to a greater extent than a man in
any other calling. How much a
man • likes farming depends to a
great extent upon how much he
values his independence. The farm.
er is his own boss. He isea success
or a failure according to his own
skill. ability attd ingenuity—that is,
except in a depression period, which
acts like a quagmire sucking hint
down however hard he struggles to
save himself.
The farmer roesn't have to punch
a time-clock—although he generally
works longer hours than those who
do. He makes his own time and ar-
ranges his work' according to the
weather or the demands of the
season. He doesn't have to pay un-
ion dues or go on strike because
someone higher up demands it.
There are very few restrictions in
regard to his work. He can grow
what he likes—and as much or as'
little as he likes. There is just one
hitch—he has little to say in what
he shall be paid for his produce,
although he must conform to gov-
ernment requirements in regard to
the quality of whatever ire has to
sell.
And yet, ironical as it may seem,
it fs often the farmer's awn satis-
iaction in his work that causes mis-
understanding. I'or instance, a ter-
mer may say during a spell -of
inclement weather, "About al, I
get done these days is the chores."
It sound, as if "chores" don't
amount to anything. How many
people, other than farmers, realise
that chores take up about six hours
of the farmer's day[ What he does
before and after chores is "work."
As ff chores were not work:
it is a mi -representation that has
conte down to us from the day when
'.,hare." were done ly the svomtu
and children of the family—when
there migia be no more than four
or five vows to milk and a dozen
or so of mongrel hens to feed.
'1:1 is help left Dad free to "work."
The word "chores" is a colloquial
espr'ssion indicating "odd lobs."
Its meaning in that sense is as opt -
of -date as a stump fence, ]Chat a
farmer dors at thr barn night and
morning is "work" with a capital
"W"—and often is the means by
whirl: be maker most of his income.
If he speaks of this work as chores
he belittles itis occupation and
should not blame his city cousin
if he gets tine idea than' there is
little tsork t olmected with the lar-
mer's daily chores. When. a person
under -rates his work or his calling
too often it is arc -tined at his own
valuation.
