More About “Mothers Day”

men and women, considering mother 
nothing more than theii* slave. 
Summing it all up it can be put in a 
very few words, as she herself says that. 
Mrs. Myers would say, “There is no 
method to her system.” 
I am a farmer’s wife, having a large 
12-room house to take care of and do all 
my own work with the exception of the 
washing. I make practically all my own 
clothes, and my son’s. We keep 40 cows, 
and I take care of the milking utensils, 
and always help doctor any of the stock 
that need attention. Last Summer I had 
city hoarders from June 2 until Septem¬ 
ber 15, having as many as 10 tit one 
time. When the house wasn’t full of 
permanent guests I accommodated tour¬ 
ists, and it was nothing unusual for a 
car with live or six people to pull in, have 
supper, stay all night and have breakfast 
in the morning. I didn’t hire any help, 
except to send out the washing, and have 
a neighbor come in Friday mornings to 
do the ironing. The guests always had 
well balanced meals, plenty to eat. and 
always on time. I bought my bread but 
did the other baking myself, and there 
were very few afternoons that I didn’t 
go for a ride, and always bad time to sit 
on the porch an hour or two evenings. 
Besides this I managed to prepare and 
can about 200 cans of fruit, and assure 
you that I never got up before six o'clock 
either. To prove that I didn’t over¬ 
work, might state that I gained 20 lbs. 
during the past year. 
It all depends on how hard you make 
your work. airs. a. e. c.

A FARM WOMAN'S NOTES 
Waiting for Spring 
Spring begins with the twenty-first of 
March. The robins fly home then, and 
the emaciated woodchuck, stirring in his 
burrow, begins to wonder liow the clover 
has survived the Winter. But for the 
man who speculates in farm produce, all 
eyes on the cards! Those two daring 
speculators, Northern truck growers and 
Southern planters, are playing a game 
where nature deals, and sometimes stacks 
the luck all in one hand. They are 
watching each other and listening for 
rumors. “How hard was the frost that 
visited the Florida trucking districts? 
Will it be repeated with all extra early 
crops in every section on the way north?” 
asks the Northern growers. And down 
South where the crops are already in full 
swing you hear them asking “What is this 
I hear about the North having a late 
Spring? Do you think it will be as late 
as it was in 1919?” 
A rumor may take money out of the 
pocket or put it in. * No one knows the 
answer to these questions, or can until 
it is loo late to be of value. It is true 
that March has not brought Spring-like 
weather to the North. The land is frozen 
deep, and must pass through a progres¬ 
sion of rain, warm sunshine and drying 
wind before it can be turned by a plow. 
The grass that was so uncannily green 
in December is sodden and brown on the 
15th of March. There is snow in the 
air, though the cutting north wind blow¬ 
ing over the State road brings us the 
mumblings and grumblings of traffic. Only 
the sun streaming across the breakfast 
room table at 7 in the morning impresses 
upon us that Spring is very near. So 
near that tomorrow may merge into the 
balmiest of Spring weather. We must 
wait. Meanwhile, there are diversions. 
<)n the buffet in the dining-room stands 
a large bamboo delivery basket piled with 
Florida oranges. “Let Scoot and Mark 
and Elsie have all they want to eat.” 
wrote the man from Florida, "for they is 
lots moh where these comes from. These 
are blood orauges—don’t he afraid of 
them. They aio the sweetest orange that 
grows in Florida.” Jane and little Mark 
are at present carrying out these instruc¬ 
tions to the very stroke of Perkins’ pen. 
Even Pete has developed a taste for citrus 
fruit, and follows in Mark’s wake operat¬ 
ing as waste collector. Now that Marcus 
walks, every cupboard door is subject to 
inspection by inquisitive baby fingers. 
When there is a catch to be found un¬ 
fastened Jane’s excited voice calls out 
from the kitchen with something like 
this: “Oh, mother come quick. Mark’s 
pulled the milk out on the floor and lie’s 
put a slice of bread in it! Never mind 
coming for a minute, mother, Pete's eat¬ 
ing it! Oh, mother. Pete’s got all he 
wants!” Mother reflects as she mops, 
that milk is said to be good for linoleum. 
The Winter would be an unbearable 
monotony for Daddy were it not for 
things bis mechanical hands find to do. 
Here's aWrench 
Without a 
Casting 
No wonder the 
TR1MO Monkey 
Wrench is a favor¬ 
ite with men who use 
tools hard. There 
isn’t a casting in it. 
The stationary jaw 
and handle of the 
TRIMO Monkey 
Wrench are one piece 
of specially selected 
bar steel, drop-forged. 
All parts are renew¬ 
able. Nut guards keep 
the adjustment per¬ 
fect, once the wrench 
is set. Since the mov¬ 
able jaw extends for¬ 
ward instead of to¬ 
ward the handle when 
adjusting, the leverage 
obtained increases in 
proportion to the work 
for which the wrench 
is set. 
Only a TRIMO can equal 
a TRIMO. Design, mater¬ 
ial and workmanship com¬ 
bine to put them in a 
class by themselves. Put 
a TRIMO in your kit and 
see. Your Idealer has 
them.
