WADHAMS Now In k 2am. Lb. Re-Usable WIDE MOUTH (lass Jars Distributor: Interior Grocery Co. I.a G nui do pent one of the happiest mornings of ite school life at the Dobbins farm Mo:.iy morning. In the fall, we visited Mr. Harrison's dairy farm and learned many interesting things about the dairy cows. But we want to know more about the other farm animals and the different crops the farmer grows. We saw all of these things at Mr. Dobbins'. We learned how wheat is cleaned and treated. We saw the machine used for planting the wheat. We went out to the wheat field to see the wheat growing. We brought home some wheat, oats, and barley to plant. . We learned how the farmer gets the soil ready for his crops and saw the machinery used. We were especially Interested in the caterpillar tractor. We went in the big sheep barn. We saw several Guernsey cows. We learned that Guernsey cows give the highest per centage of butter fat. We laughed at the funny little red pigs and sanir a song about "Eight Little Pigs." We liked the horses especially. Mr. Dob bins saddled a horse and each of us got to ride. The horse's name Is "Grouchy." We think this Is a fun ny name because he is very gentle with children. As we were going up to the house we all stood on the scales and found we weighed Just 1500 pounds. At the house. Mrs. Dob bins had a lovely treat for us. We sat on the lawn to enjoy it. We talked about how important it is for the farmer to have a good home, Just as It is for us. We are very happy to have such good friends as Mr. and Mrs, Dobbins and are thankful to learn so many interesting and useful things about the farm.
