Th midsummer month ii the moet
trying one of the year to American
farm era. Daring its extreme heat and
bauldity the farm work is most press
ing aad onerons, end of course very ex
haustive, though or leas so than fifty
years siro as we know from experi
ence for now much of ths hard labor
of harinc and harvestinK. and the cul
ture of so-called hoed crops Is done by
tabor-saving machinery. Then we had
no mowing-machines, horse hay-rakes,
tedders or hay-loaders to aid in secur
ing the grass-crop ; had in those slow
going yet happy days the grain was
out with n cradle and not . only raked
and bound but loaded and burned or
sucked by hand-labor, quite different
from using the rapid reapers, binders.
and other labor-aiding Inventions for
harvesting now in vogue. In the ab
sence of planters, horse-hoes and cul
tivators, the corn crop then required '
good deal of muscular effort and back
ache. Certainly the boys and young
men of that period had Car more occa
sion to quit the farm for easier avoca
tions than have the yoang rural lets of
to-day, for the latter can ride comfort
ably, on sulky-ploughs, reapers and
mowers, and easily guide other ma
chines that do much of the work which
formerly required muscular strength
and exhaustive band manipulation. ":
