DDIfflGUCpeS By CARL HALL On the panorama of its expect ant dimensions, where the cutting bladea of steel had severed from root the tangled, tasseled heads of grass, the rolling anatomy of the field lay prostrate in Its meridian heat. Prone to the seas oning aun its range lay silent In its aeeding dominions, empty of their buzzing cover of sound, the singing cantilevered reaches now flattened and still. la precise eaatoariag swaths the fares! af grasses, the bet hauset f tangled vetch lay M the ksrl saatal pramlse ef their slaughter. The afeediag winters ware saet here daring the harvested laia aess ef tha n Rimers, the gathered-la fodder beds af the full udders and the fatting humps af the walking winter beef. Off on the further reaci of tha fields the barn waits like a greedy hog with open mouth. Its maw of sterile apace ready te gulp up the grasses In Its beamed belly, to digest them down the appetites ef a winter. Pile in the dark cavities, tha rectangular vaults of winter, the spawn of the dark humped ani mals we call the hills, the unmov ing herds that graze -in roots that move without footfall in tha mulched trails of silence. Fill in to overflowing the shifting gravity of air filled, summer drunk straw that packs the season out in the beat of Its own compressing weight: make the barn breathe, fill the packed peak with the musk that draws the insect world to a warm roost, and carries summer long into winter like a cocoon. Packed between shielding walls the rationed feedings of the future generate the beat of their season ing wait, heady with comingling odors that suck in the barn's pro tected space with the history of their sercd bounty. These are the fruitful grounds gathered in on the stems of summer, stacked high to satiation on the rafters: above the packed oven the hawk waits over the mound of plenty at his feet, like winter over summer. Dark fulcrum a tb year and the acres, the bara at plenty, stuffed with summer appetites that ahlft frara aature te maa and beast! rides high atari the elatlea and elevatioa ef the saa-drenched days. Tha full and puageat nam that, above the groomed aad emptied huth af the preened fields, opens Its month ta summer and bow stands full above the whis pered stillaess la the sun. It is three o'clock m the hill In the splendor of what has been and what will yet be again.. The grass chains are taunt on the sun and the fields are free to run. vu'dk mum 1 sjtsee to five pooaoda on none sst cetsrwe Wey-Rjte mewls Yo can control yowr cie,rtf most satisfactorily with Wey-Rite on a modified plan.
