Muscle in the saddle.
So read a pert paragraph in a city paper the other day
It had to do with strikes, investigations, warrants, profi
teering and food riots.
The salient -point it exclusively had to do with the
city.
Not the farm, mind you with "Muscle in the saddle."
For dad and the boys of a half century ago had noth
ing but a stumpy 160 acres, a pair of oxen and willine dis
positions. But they fed the nation.
Then Yankee brains got busy. Today we have the
tractor, the riding plow, haystacker, gas engines, electric
light plants, telephone and the "henry." Not so bad and
less lifting muscle needed.
Sounds pretty soft, eh? Well it isn't even yet.
There's the daylight saving law during the war, high
cost of farm labor, of seed, fertilizer, machinery, live
stock and staples, so by all means let "Muscle ride the
saddle" in the city.
Beacuse, when the show-down k over maybe the
statement from the farmer "that his selling market offers
less in return on the combined investment than Liberty
tfonas, will no longer be greeted with a knowing wink
tjlnces

Usually thei
e was a bargain or two in that bask
